4/10 Fair

Der blev lukket mere en 100 lokale ind til at benytte poolen, så der ikke var plads til gæsterne. Morgenmaden var opvarmet fra dagen før, vi fik, ikke 2 værelser med udsigt til havet, som vi havde bestilt, det ene var indtil en mur. Personalet talte dårligt engelsk.

Had a good stay for relaxing outside of Dar!

We stayed here for five nights. We had a good room for the first four nights with ocean view but we had to swap for the last night since we extended our stay on sight and our room was booked. The new room had no view at all due to a big tree just outside, it was really dark and the wifi did not work in this room... We asked if we could change for another room with working wifi but that was apparently "impossible" according to the manager (even though he offered us to "borrow" a room for two hours to use the wifi in...). Also it says that there are a safe in the room but there was not so you have to use a safe in a room near the reception and ask the manager to unlock the door everytime you want access. During the days the pool area was crowded with ppl coming from outside the hotel so we couldn't really enjoy it.. The sun chairs really needs improvement, not suitable for sun bathing. Breakfast was good with a really nice passion fruit juice! Nice surrounding area, feels safe! Most of the staff very friendly and helpful. Helped us find a taxi with a really good price for departure! Food was good!

Good for a couple of days

The Beach Comber was a quite nice place to arrive for two nights before the real journey began. The room was really nice and the staff very helpful and professional. The restaurant was nice and the breakfast a real treat. However the hotel was a bit runned down and due to the weekend, there were a lot of activity at the pool side from outsiders, who rented in for a day. But I can recommand a stay for a few days.

Nice beach hotel...

Nice beach hotel. Good size clean room and bathroom. No Safe Deposit box. We only had breakfast, dining room service extremely slow and often got wrong. We were a group of nine, no other guests in dining room at the time. Only one person attended all of us so may be overwhelming. She was polite, may be lack of experience so got confused easily. Spoke to a manager regarding a booking issue, was very helpful. Hotel is far from city centre and no restaurants /shopping in walking distance.
