Christmas in The Gambia? With daytime temperatures of up to 30°C, the Christmas decorations at Mica's look even more intense...

THE GAMBIA IS "THE SMILING COAST OF AFRICA":

Gambia's slogan actually deserves the title. The population of The Gambia is remarkably friendly, really everyone speaks English. The Republic of Gambia is the smallest country on the entire African continent. According to an Africa specialist from Brighton, it has the friendliest population in the whole of Africa.

In my opinion, the West African country can be described as a safe destination. Gambia's area is only about 11000 square kilometres, which corresponds to about a little bit more than the huge London conurbation. The coastline of just under 100km is mostly deserted and breathtaking beautiful. There are a considerable numbers of endemic animals and plants and even monkeys and crocodiles can be found here. The country is completely surrounded by Senegal except for the Gambian west coast on the Atlantic Ocean. The Gambia lies on both sides of the lower reaches of the partly picturesque natural paradise, the Gambia River. The river is also the nation's namesake, flowing through the centre of The Gambia and emptying into the Atlantic Ocean. According to an estimate by a Gambian journalist, the small country has a population of slightly less than 3 million. Banjul is the capital and also the country's largest metropolitan area. Larger cities are Serekunda and Brikama.

WHAT DO THE PEOPLE OF THE GAMBIA EXPECT FROM THE FUTURE?

The population of The Gambia naturally hope that tourism in the country will return to its old strength. In 2019, almost 630,000 holidaymakers visited this attractive country in western Africa. Due to the global Corona pandemic, The Gambia's main industry, tourism, collapsed from March 2020 and people are suffering: taxi drivers are selling fewer tours, the roadside fruit sellers are selling much less fruits and hotels have much lower occupancy rates than before 2020. Restaurants are also selling only 20% of their food and have had to lay off many staff.

Due to a lack of mineral resources or other resources, the travel industry is the most important sector of the economy, alternatives are not to be seen.

YET THE GAMBIA HAS A LOT OF POTENTIAL IN THE ECOTOURISM

A beach holiday can be combined very well with a stay in a stylish accommodation - like the MICA APARTMENT - and a visit to the interior of the country with its unique flora and fauna...

"Mica Apartments" show exemplarily that the investors and people believe in the future of tourism!

'Mica Apartments' offers a very cosy atmosphere and guests feel welcome. The apartments are cosy and well equipped.

MOOD OF OPTIMISM IN THE GAMBIA

At the end of November 2021, more and more Europeans and US-Americans or Canadians can be seen in The Gambia. The author has been in the country since June and investments in tourism are increasing strongly. The British citizen but Africa-born Prince Daramola, for example, invested a lot of money a while ago and has now implemented a very interesting concept: the Mica Apartments shine with a combination of stylish elements of a chic business apartment building with the modern comfort of an upscale city hotel.

20 flats of about 32 sqm can be rented since October 15 in 2021 and since the beginning of renting, it has become apparent that not only booking.com determines the market, but other providers and direct booking via the website https://www.micaapartments.com/ has also become more attractive.

THE CONCEPT OF MICA APARTMENTS IS CONCLUSIVE AND HAS SEVERAL 'UNIQUE SELLING POINTS':

The compact complex of MICA Apartments is a new luxury apartment complex that opened in October 2021 and offers holidaymakers, business people or even couples a truly unique and individual African holiday experience. Just a short walk from the Atlantic Ocean beach, the clean and well-appointed MICA Apartments offer its guests a fantastic location in the heart of the restaurant- and party area 'Senegambia'. The area is surrounded by beach beauty and a variety of bars, nightclubs and restaurants to choose from, with the full range of entertainment open and mask-free. If holidaymakers are hungry at 11.30 pm: no problem, numerous restaurants in the vicinity of the 'Mica Apartments' reveal rich menus. The concept of the Mica Apartments is also convincing in terms of furnishings: each of the 20 apartments has a very comfortable queen-size bed, quiet air conditioning and very quietly running fans. The well-equipped kitchen of each Mica flat with gas cooker, kettle and fridge convinces the guests: in London such a flat would cost about 1000 British pounds per week.

So you can cater for yourself and then dine when it suits you. In February 2022, the "Mica Apartments" will be extended by an attraction: a roof terrace restaurant will delight guests with a sensational view and good cuisine. It will be another unique selling point, and in doing so, Prince will meet the tastes of both Europeans and Africans visiting Gambia or Banjul.
The comfortable large bed in the Mica accommodation units allows guests to slumber well. The 20 Mica Apartments offer very good beds (one of the best in the country).

My assessment of The Gambia as a holiday destination:

The Gambia is becoming an interesting destination for more and more Europeans. The weather is very pleasant and guarantees bathing pleasures even in winter. The short journey time of about 6 hours by direct flight from Europe also speaks in favour of the country. You can talk to everyone here in English and there is an excellent supply of vitamin D, even at Christmas. Christmas decoration at the Mica Apartments ... The country invits guests at Christmas with an European decoration.

My assessment of this friendly country and Mica Apartments:

The Gambia is a great country and offers excellent holiday quality in winter too. Now the Europeans need to experience what The Gambia has to offer... Here you can spend Christmas in pleasant summer temperatures on the beach of the nearby Atlantic coast or the pool of the Mica Apartments. The short distances (e.g. 6 hours by plane from London) to Banjul are also pleasant and so are the people in the country. Add to that a low crime rate and a pleasant sunny climate all year round. My assessment of The Gambia in a few words: the country is a haven of welcome and Europeans feel right at home here. I did not know Gambia before, but can now call it my favourite destination in West Africa....

My summary of this unique new offer of "MICA APARTMENTS":

This will be a hit and the occupancy rate has been extremely good from the very beginning (since opening on 15th of October 2021). The combination of well-equipped accommodation units and a hotel with all comforts and security and very fast internet in the middle of a trendy district leaves no other conclusion: this will be a successful business model and could start a trend. The plans of Prince and his staff are promising: there will be a roof terrace with a restaurant as early as February 2022.

Mica Apartments: to have breakfast, lunch or dinner very flexible is one of the big assets of Mica Apartments

My insider tip for all those who want to combine the luxury of upscale cuisine with the comfort of 'owning' an apartment unit in the heart of the No. 1 party district.
