Review:
The Kombo Beach, often
erroneously referred to by
some guide books at 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 complex is the
volleyball pitch and
tennis courts.
