Review:
Kombo Beach Hotel, often erroneously referred to by
some guide books as the Novotel, is set in 6 acres
of resort grounds between 325 metres of golden sands.
It was built in 1981 by
Arne Sanders, with interior décor by Halvorsen Reine,
and was finally opened in 1983.
From the Badala Highway the approach is lined on either
side with trees, flower gardens and a row of terracotta
monkeys. A porch thatched in elephant grass (nyantangho)
is set on solid sculptured pillars is in front of
the main reception lounge.
To your left is the Kingfisher Bar decked out in rattan
seats, and opens out onto the Bellengo. Straight forward
is the Lekukai which is translated into 'Place of
Eating'. To the right, the reception, Elsafe desk,
phones and shops .
There is a conference hall which can seat 145 persons
but is more often used for showing films. The restaurants
form an L-shape around the pool. The majority of guests
prefer to eat outside in the peaked thatch Bantaba.
Around the pool sunchairs overflow onto the grass.
By the 3 beach front gates, the active entertainment
team is situated. There is a large entertainment area
between the swimming area and the road outside.
Just after the children's play area are 4 nearly identical,
3-floored blocks which enclose 250 modern styled rooms,
which are either twin or double, and almost all have
a bathtub and shower. At the edge of the Kombo Beach
Hotel is the
volleyball pitch and tennis courts.
