The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Fantastic Food Variety

The buffet breakfast at Kombo Beach was excellent, with options like cooked English breakfast, pancakes, and fresh fruit. The chefs, especially Shankar and Bhagwan, went above and beyond to accommodate our vegetarian diets, creating special dishes just for us. Dinner was equally impressive, and we were pleasantly surprised by the quality, which rivaled many fine dining experiences.

Engaging Evening Entertainment

Every evening, the hotel offered wonderful entertainment, including live music and authentic Gambian performances. I especially enjoyed the African drumming show, which added a vibrant cultural experience to my stay. It was good to see everyone enjoying the performances together.

The hotel is undergoing a makeover, but it's lost some of its original African charm. While the location is great and the rooms are clean, the dining options are limited for non-all-inclusive guests. The staff is friendly, and the new facilities are nice, but the lack of character and some unfinished areas left me disappointed. Overall, it was a decent stay, but there's definitely room for improvement.

I had a wonderful time at Kombo Beach Hotel, located just steps away from a beautiful beach. The rooms were clean and although a bit dated, they were comfortable. I must say the staff were incredible, always friendly and willing to help. The dining experience was enjoyable with lots of breakfast options, but the dinner buffet could use a bit more variety. Overall, a great stay with minor quirks like sometimes inconsistent Wi-Fi and a few dated rooms.

I just got back from two weeks at Kombo Beach Hotel and I absolutely loved it! The peaceful atmosphere around the pool without loud music was a dream. The beach was stunning, and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. However, the dinner menu could use more variety, and we found the buffet a bit pricey for what it offered. Overall, I'd say it's a fantastic spot for relaxation, but there’s room for improvement in the dining options.

I recently enjoyed a wonderful stay at the hotel right on the beautiful white sandy beach. The rooms were well-kept and had a true Gambian feel. The dining options were varied and generally enjoyable, although there were some inconsistencies in service. The location is simply perfect for beach lovers, but improvements could be made in staff attentiveness and facilities management.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, with a clean environment and great service. The beach is decent, but I did notice quite a bit of noise and haggling from local sellers, which can be a bit overwhelming. The dining options were good, and the staff were always on top of cleanliness. Overall, it’s a relaxing place, but the pool was smaller than expected and the evening entertainment got repetitive quickly.

Rooms
