Leading specialist, The Gambia Experience is pleased to announce that from 05 January (2010), The Sheraton Gambia Hotel – as featured within its Luxury Collection – will offer all-inclusive packages for the price of a half board upgrade.
The 5-grade hotel, complete with infinity pool, gym and spa facilities, first opened its doors to guests in 2007. Located near the residential village of Brufut, yet only a ten-minute drive from Banjul Airport, The Sheraton Gambia Hotel offers a beachfront setting, surrounded by palm and baobab trees.
The ‘All-Inclusive’ concept is new in The Gambia and a welcome addition – The Gambia Experience reports an increasing demand from current customers and is also confident that this new option will further encourage new clientele to what has been coined Africa’s ‘smiling coast’.
The all-inclusive package includes a buffet breakfast, lunch and dinner, as well as a selection of beverages with a choice of local spirits, house wine, mineral water, soft drinks and juices. In addition, guests are offered a 10% discount on spa treatments, as well as 1 hour’s free use of the fitness room on a daily basis. Further free activities include table tennis, billiards and beach volleyball. A twice daily courtesy bus to the lively resort of Kololi, just a ten minute drive away, is also available to guests.
Prices are from £799* per person in 2010, based on a 7 night all-inclusive package. This price - based on two sharing a twin classic room - includes a return flight from Gatwick, Bristol, East Midlands or Manchester airport, transfers and taxes.The same package on a bed & breakfast board is available from £666 per person. For more details, please call The Gambia Experience Reservations Dept on 0845 330 2087 or visit www.gambia.co.uk
* Please note that this all-inclusive package is the same price as the half board supplement (£19pppn). This discounted all-inclusive upgrade is an Introductory Offer and will expire end of April 2010. Half Board and All-Inclusive upgrades will then be differing prices throughout the summer.
With a flying time of just under 6 hours from London, The Gambia is a short flight away for a tropical destination and as it’s on the same time zone, there’s no jet lag. Located on approximately the same latitude as Barbados and enjoying virtually uninterrupted sunshine, with high daytime temperatures and almost no rainfall from November to June, this lesser known destination offers unbeatable winter sun, furthermore, its outside the Euro Zone, therefore holidaying in The Gambia is great value.
