Nomad Beach Resort

Its a great location and service is good but learned in my stay that I could have gotten better for the price I paid there but overall it great

We had a lovely 6 night stay here after our various safari stops and what a great end to the holiday. The hotel is rustic style (maybe just on the brink of getting away with it). We stayed in an ocean view suite which was spacious, supering size bed and had fabulous air con! The mini fridge (payable) and water was replenished daily. We had a massive deck area (ground floor) where we sat each evening and listened to the waves and saw the cute monkeys and baboons. The beach is huge and at low tide you can walk out really far before the water is even waist height.Theres a lot of seaweed and I was told that this is seasonal, not a problem for us but just pointing it out. Breakfasts were nice, nothing amazing, but certainly enough variety. We had lunch at the pool daily and it was always very good as was the drinks service from your sun beds. We ate at the grill twice, simple but tasty. You can choose various meats and or seafood and sauces, marinades and sides, all very nice. We ate at the main restaurant twice which was also very good. The staff throughout the hotel are all very friendly and helpful. I cannot remember all of their lovely names, but we had a great rapport with Nellie and the guest relations manager, Jacinta (sorry if I've spelt wrong) We attended the manager cocktail party briefly - those blue cocktails were delicious. The spa was nice, we enjoyed our massages. We ate at a nearby restaurant twice, Alibarbour, (separate review), very nice set in a cave. You will have local people coming up to you on the beach selling, trips, coconuts etc but a polite no thank you and they go on their way. The glass bottom boat trip via the hotel to the sand bank was really enjoyable. it was a 2 hours and cost $25 p/p. it. One of the guys went in the water and fed the fish so we saw so many varieties plus eels, star fish, sea cucumbers and so on.

Nomad Beach Resort was our first stop for a six week African trip so we could get over jet lag as travelled from Canada. Stayed five nights. The room was great with a separate bedroom and bathroom for our daughter. A/C worked great in both sleeping areas and was needed as was hot and humid. Patio area outside the room nice and private save for the local monkeys, and had an ocean view that was amazing. Grassy areas simple but all you really need. Beach area was wide open and almost empty. No beach chairs on the beach area as the resort ends at the beach, and as pool people that was fine. Local beach vendors do not hesitate to come chat once you are on the beach but are respectful enough when you ask for space. Resort staff all very commendable for friendliness and helpfulness, especially when our daughter was ill. The restaurant breakfast buffet was great and menu options also good. Pool area was quiet as was the resort - no music blasting and it was a very chill vibe. Beds a bit hard for our liking but comfortable enough. Prices at the restaurant and bar were comparable to other resorts we visited on our journeys. A safe, clean, chill place with great staff. Thanks to Ismael at the pool for his help and kindness.
