| Wir sind als Traveller nach Gambia gekommen und wollten beim Erkunden des Landes verschiedene Stationen machen. Es hat uns im Rainbow so gut gefallen, dass wir hier 2 Wochen gewohnt haben. Trotzdem haben wir sehr viel von dem Land gesehen, weil Tagesausflüge professionell und günstig von hier aus möglich sind. Wir kommen nächstes Jahr wieder. We arrived as traveller to Gambia and wanted to make different stations while exploring the country. We liked it so well at the Rainbow that we stayed two weeks here. Nevertheless, we have seen a lot of the country because day trips from here are professional and cheap. We will come back next year. Jawla, please give the best greetings to your team. |

| We had a marvelous time at your place, Jawla!! We really felt a part of the "family" with you and the whole staff. When we return to the Gambia we know now for sure where to stay: The Rainbow Lodge! We only hope that the taxi driver will find it. But on the other hand, we now can show the taxi driver the way. Give our love and greets to everybody of the staff, your wife and children and also to America!! Jan en Marianne van Rijn |

| This was my local for the 12 weeks stay at an apartment near bye. The setting is excellent with plenty of sun beds, chairs and tables and chairs for eating and drinking on the beach or in covered areas away from the sun. The friend I stayed with has a 20 month old son who was well looked after by all the staff here. It was a very safe place for a child as he was not allowed to wander off by himself as the locals and staff always kept an eye on him. There are plenty of ex pats who visit, some on a more regular basis than others. Thanks to Jawla and all his staff who made us very welcome every time we went (very regularly) Nov 2011 - Feb 2012 |

| We stayed at The Rainbow last November ('11) for 2 weeks. It's the best kept secret in The Gambia. I didn't want to put anything on this site as I don't really want this place to become overrun with tourists. But I feel I need to praise Jawla and his staff for making our stay fantastic. We have travelled extensively and always said that we would never go back to the same place twice, but guess what as soon as we got home we booked again and will be back at Paradise in March. The food is good, the staff are very friendly and nothing is too much bother for them. The beach is beautiful with local fishing boats to one side and miles and miles of unspoilt beach to the other. We did a lot of fishing mostly from the beach and caught many different types of fish up to 20lbs. If you need a fishing guide ask for Karamo at the bar. He knows all the best fishing spots and will arrange it all for you. Thanks again Jawla and can't wait until we see you all again. |

| What a fantastic place to visit or stay, been going to The Gambia for 13 years and this beach bar/restaurant is by far the best anyway in the Gambia. The food is always top quality and the serive is second to none. We have to thank Jawla and all his staff for a wonderful time. |

| It´s now 2 years since we spent two wonderful weeks in Paradise. One of the best places we been to and the absolute best in Gambia. Good staff and a fantastic owner. We can really recomend this place to everyone, whish to come back. Some day..... JAWLA, I promissed to write on your internet site but lost adress, then today I found it.Better late then newer. I also want to say Hello to cyberSPACEMAN. We had some nice evenings in the bar with your family, often think back on some good beers toghether with your father in law. (Rest of you was at sleep). Till alla svenskar. Vi tycker detta var ett alldeles fantastiskt boende. Underbara kvällar på stranden eller sittande i baren. Mycket trevlig personal som verkligen bryr sig. Ägaren är också en mycket härlig människa som bryr sig om sin personal och jobbar som ett föredömme. Många företagsledare skulle komma och titta hur han driver sitt företag och ta del av hans tankar. Åker ni på egen hand i Gambia så skall detta vara ett ställe du stannar till på. Förutom boendet så är det en underbar strand. Du kan vandra ensam utefter havet och bara njuta, ingen som stör. |

| Our time at the Rainbow lodge was wonderful, the hospitality is outstanding and the beach beautiful. We were treated with such warmth and freindship by the staff of the Rainbow lodge that it soon felt like being at home with friends. Our three and a half year old son had such a great time and talks non stop about Lamin and Gibril. Thanks guys! lots of love Nanouska, Ben and Jason xxx |
