Anna and Verena
The Bougainvillea House - Your home away from home! Book now for your next holiday or long-term stay Perfect for your relaxed and carefree getaway in the sun, the Bougainvillea House offers two cosy groundfloor bungalows, fully furnished and completed with handpicked decor to make you feel at home. It is located in a quiet residential area in Bijilo, The Gambia. Each bungalow features two en-suite double bedrooms with ACs, plus an extra bathroom with bathtub. A comfy living room with a smart TV, and a kitchen equipped with everything including a water dispenser, washing machine, oven and microwave etc., ensures you won't have to miss out on anything during your holiday! A basic cleaning service (3x weekly) and regular change of towels (2x weekly) and bed linen (1x weekly) is included in the price as well. The crisp and inviting swimming pool is only shared among the two bungalows (and only for booked guests, not day visitors), so you can enjoy it to the fullest! Pool and bungalows are surrounded by lush greenery which attracts a variety of birds, butterflies, and even the occasional monkey. A car parking space within the compound allows for safe parking for up to two cars. Our caretaker stays at the compound during the night. Bougainvillea House is equipped with its own borehole for guaranteed water supply, and a generator for backup electricity in case of power outage. Electricity and generator consumption are excluded from the pricing and charged at the end of your stay, as per meter reading.
Hi! We are Anna and Verena, mother and daughter, and will be your hosts during your stay at the Bougainvillea House. We live approx. a 10-15 min drive away, in case we are needed at the Bougainvillea House. We’ve lived in The Gambia for many years, so do not hesitate to ask us for any tips or recommendations. We hope to welcome you soon!
Bougainvillea House is located in a quiet residential area of Bijilo, away from the hustle an bustle of the Senegambia strip, but still in convenient proximity to all necessary amenities. A corner shop just a couple of walking minutes down the road provides basic essentials. The nearest restaurant, Blue Kitchen, is just 10min walking distance away, and the perfect spot for a cozy dinner and a refreshing drink. Right on the side of Blue Kitchen, you will also find a German bakery that offers fresh bread and delicious pastries.
