The new property will open under the Ramada by Wyndham brand. It will be located in the coastal town of Kotu, about 22 kilometers from Banjul International Airport and 15 kilometers from the city center.
The resort will feature 65 guestrooms, an all-day dining restaurant, lounge bar, ocean-view swimming pool, wellness spa and meeting facilities.
