Nestled in the heart of beautiful Lamin, The Gambia, Lamin Safari Retreat offers a private and peaceful escape where comfort, nature, and authentic Gambian hospitality come together.

Set within a secure gated compound with on-site security, our retreat is conveniently located just 10 minutes from Banjul International Airport, making your arrival and departure effortless. Whether you're seeking relaxation, adventure, or a taste of local culture, Lamin Safari Retreat provides the perfect base for your stay.

Owned and lovingly managed by English couple Terri and James, who first moved to The Gambia over 25 years ago, the retreat benefits from deep local knowledge and trusted relationships built within the community over decades. Their passion for the country and commitment to providing a genuine and memorable experience shines through in every aspect of your stay.

The property features two comfortable bedrooms and can accommodate up to six guests. Inside, you'll find a spacious living area, Wi-Fi, TV, and all the essentials for a comfortable home-away-from-home experience. Outside, enjoy your own private swimming pool, BBQ area, and outdoor fridge, perfect for relaxing evenings under the African sky.

One of the retreat's unique highlights is its flourishing garden, where fresh produce is grown right on the property. Guests can enjoy seasonal bananas, grapefruits, cashews, mangoes, and watermelons, along with fresh vegetables harvested from the garden. Fresh eggs from our free-range chickens add an extra touch of farm-to-table living during your stay.

To make your visit completely stress-free, a private personal driver will be  providing you with free airport transfers. He is also available for transportation throughout your stay at an extra cost.

At Lamin Safari Retreat, you'll discover more than just accommodation — you'll experience authentic Gambian living, warm hospitality, and a tranquil sanctuary surrounded by nature.

We look forward to welcoming you.
