I recently enjoyed a 10-night stay at Kombo Beach, where the beautiful beach and well-maintained gardens really stood out. The staff were generally friendly and helpful, although some at reception could improve their demeanor. My room was lovely with a partial sea view, but I did hear mixed experiences regarding room standards. Overall, I had a wonderful experience and can see myself returning.
