Airport hotels can be found all over the world; they’re usually expensive and don’t always offer a relaxing stay. What’s more, they’re often located in bustling areas… Everything is geared toward efficiency, and as a result, customer loyalty and service quality often fall by the wayside.
In Africa’s smallest country, The Gambia, a savvy businessman is proving that an airport hotel can be designed in a completely different way.

Why Americans and Europeans are loving Gambia’s Atlantic coast?
The greatest assets of mainland Africa’s smallest country are its miles of golden Atlantic beaches, spectacular river landscapes, and unique birdlife. Thanks to relatively short flight times and no time difference, Gambian adventurers usually arrive without jet lag.
The Gambia River is a paradise for bird lovers and other wildlife enthusiasts…
The people are friendly and open. As a European, it’s advisable to approach them with a smile; you’ll very likely get it back two or three times over!

Most Gambians speak English, and some even speak a little German. It’s an exciting travel destination, and I think a visit could be a win-win situation for both, the locals and tourists.

The Gambia: Winter sun 2026/27
While Europe freezes in winter, Gambia pampers its guests in the 2026/27 season with reliable warmth, around nine hours of sunshine daily, and daytime temperatures around 30 degrees Celsius. From mid-October until the end of June, there will be no more rain. A trip to Africa’s smallest country can offer entirely new perspectives, especially for water sports enthusiasts, motorcyclists, or mountain bikers…

Whether it’s relaxing on palm-fringed bays, taking boat trips on the Gambia River, or experiencing the proverbial hospitality of the “Smiling Coast” – Gambia combines exotic summer magic with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. An ideal escape from the winter blues!

How can you travel to Africa cheaply and comfortably?

And Vueling also offers cheaper flight prices; on some dates, you can get a round trip for under €350… Route example: DUS-BCN-BJL and return.

The prices for a round-trip flight average between about four hundred and seven hundred euros, depending on the season and time of booking… More expensive is Brussels Airlines and Turkish Airlines.

Transfer services of Woodpecker’s at any time

Many flights arrive in Banjul, the capital of The Gambia, uncomfortably late or very early in the morning. That’s why many travelers—even in Africa’s smallest country—are glad that the successful and quite affordable Woodpecker Resort has opened near the airport.
Many flights to Gambia land late in the evening or depart in the middle of the night. In unfamiliar surroundings, this often makes arrival and departure stressful – but the Woodpeckers Resort offers the perfect solution…
Woodpeckers Resort with excellent services

A beautiful pool creates a holiday atmosphere, despite the immediate proximity to Banjul Airport. Thanks to its strategically convenient proximity to the airport, guests enjoy maximum peace of mind: The resort offers a free, reliable transfer upon request, no matter how late your flight is.
After landing at Woodpeckers Resort, guests are greeted by a tranquil, verdant oasis with comfortable rooms, a refreshing pool, and excellent cuisine. Woodpeckers Resort combines absolute reliability for overnight flights with warm Gambian hospitality – the ideal place for a completely carefree stay.
The airport transfer will either be carried out with an impressive V8 Range Rover, or with a Mercedes Vito.

Many holidaymakers use the relaxing resort to check in for a few days on both their arrival and departure, because there’s no easier way to end or begin a trip to Gambia….
