Its excellent amenities mean the Kombo Beach Hotel is ideal for either a relaxing or active beach holiday. With a full time entertainment team on hand, sporting activities include tennis, aerobics, pool games and volleyball. However, with its choice beachfront setting and lush tropical gardens, it is not difficult to find a quiet retreat away from the lively pool games and entertainment.
All of the rooms now have individual air-conditioning units, operated by remote control, as well as telephones and radios. They are furnished to give a light and airy feel, enhanced by the large picture windows with either a private balcony or patio from where the gentle lapping sound of the ocean can be heard. Superior rooms and Suites are located on both the first and second floors and Premium rooms on the ground floor; all upgraded rooms are furnished to a higher standard and have hairdryers, televisions, a free safe, tea & coffee-making facilities and fridges.
