The sound of the rolling waves sets the atmosphere. And you can let your eyes wander across the surface glittering in the sunlight. Enjoy a breath-taking sunset with a cold drink in your hand. This is the life!

The story about Lemon Creek
The hotel, which has 56 rooms, was built in 2006-07 on a large plot of land right on the sunny coast. Only five palm trees had to be cut down in order to make space for the colonial-styled buildings and hotel premises you see today.
We still hold great respect for our surroundings and aim to run a sustainable business. We harvest a lot of vegetables from our own garden. Moreover, a vast number of solar panels heat up the water used at the hotel. The solar project was made possible with great support from the Denmark's Development Corporation, DANIDA.
The hotel is also a great support for the local community as we employ about 95 locals and mainly use local products in our kitchen.
OWNERSHIP
Lemon Creek Hotel Resort was built on a dream by a group of Danish friends of the Gambia who still own the hotel with funding from the IFU, which is an investment fund for developing countries.
