Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at Kombo Beach Resort!
The views are absolutely stunning, waking up to the ocean just steps away was such a dream. The staff were incredibly kind and helpful throughout our stay. Special thanks for offering to extend our checkout time when our flight got delayed.

The food does take a little while to come out, but it's totally worth the wait. Everything we tried was fresh and flavorful. Breakfast was a standout too, different options to start the day right.

Overall, a lovely and relaxing spot. Would definitely recommend for anyone visiting The Gambia!

Pros:

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and would come back again. Some things could be improved like getting clean towels more regularly, having the traditional food available everyday, and making the beach a little more private but other than that I have no real complaints.

Pros:

Unfortunately I did not get the opportunity stay at Kombo Beach Resort. I revieved a whatsapp meesage 2 days prior to travelling there for my Christmas family holiday informing me that due to new furniture being delivered to C block (where I would have being staying) I and a few other guests due to stay unfortunately have to be relocated to another hotel. My allocated hotel was Ocean Bay. I would fully reccommend it. The staff were extremely friendly and polite. I could not fault the service recieved. I will definately be returing to Ocean Bay next year. I've now been put off staying at Kombo Beach due to my bad experiance.

Great hotel, lovely staff.
Pros:

The hotel was lovely, rooms are newly refurbished and are clean. Beds are comfy and are made up beautifully each day.

The beach is nice and right on the hotel front, the security makes it feel very safe to relax on. The only thing I would say is there is always a lot of sellers from the markets who come up to you on the beach constantly.

The food was good, especially the Sunday bbq. The staff are also super friendly and helpful and just want you to have the best possible stay. The management however were not as friendly and seemed to just walk around the resort only saying hello and speaking to people who were “deluxe” guests.

The only problem we had was they originally booked us down as B&B when we had paid for all inclusive so we had an embarrassing confrontation with the bar staff when they told us we couldn’t have drinks or lunch !! But this was very quickly rectified luckily.

Customer service representative were rude and aggressive, I couldn’t sleep overnight because too many noise next door, I complained several times before the address the issue. Cleaners woke me up at 9am, they opened my door while I was undressed. Very unprofessional staffs.

Pros:

It was a beautiful area very relaxing. I enjoyed having the cats, dogs, and lizards as part of our stay. We had a mix up at check in and so it started out a little hectic and there was a power issue so that limited things otherwise it was well worth it

Pros:

The staff is TERRIBLE. They don't know what is all inclusive. It's to much to explain how terrible my experience was! I arrived at 9:30 PM because i was waiting 6 hours for ferry and I paid for all inclusive. They send me to a restaurant area where I supposed to pay, and they put me menu on the table to order. After that I asked why should I pay because I am all inclusive, and they told me that all inclusive it's closed, but in the same time to pay a la carte was open. After 30 minutes arguing about this ireal situation , the gave me and my group a miserable tuna burger. Remember this word: MISERABLE. I didn't eat and I was going outside of the "resort" paying for taxi, searching for a restaurant to finally eat something. I was back at 2:00AM. So I need 4 hours to eat, pay for my food for me and my group, pay for taxi and go to bed in this "all inclusive". Everything is made for pictures, especially the pool outside, to "look good" for selling. Inside is TERRIBLE. Alarms starting for no reasons couple times a day, everything are poor quality. If you are looking for all inclusive resort experience, AVOID THIS FAKE RESORT.

Pros:

Quite a tired place with good need of some TLC, particularly in the rooms. Staff were generally friendly, but I was a bit put out when they repeatedly tried to charge me double for my airport transfer. The WiFi is not free, and you're better off buying a SIM card and using that as a hotspot. Similiarly, no bottled water is provided and must be paid for separately, or just bought from one of the shops outside the hotel entrance. Taxis out the front attempt to charge extortionate rates, but can be bargained down easily enough, but that's to be expected. Otherwise, the situation is nice (on the beach), and the pool area comfortable for sitting.

Good Stay and Local Contact
Pros:

Nice area, lovely local people so warm and friendly. Hotel had good outdoor facilities but the room itself is in need of a refurb. Good basic facilities, comfy bed, no complaints about the room, however in the bathroom our shower curtain was in desperate need of replacing and would have made it feel much cleaner. If you're looking to stay, we'd recommend our local tour guide who helped us with hotel transfer and local trips at good prices. He's called Yaya and can be contacted on whatsapp - +2207602589.
