We did not expect too much from this hotel as the price was very good and we knew that it was a 3* but having read some of the reviews, we thought we had got a bargain. Our plan was to use the hotel as a base and then do a couple of 3/4 day safaris and it would still... more

I chose this hotel from our travel agents' brochure based on what I had read about it on this website. What a mistake!! I have never stayed in such an awful hotel, despite it being listed as 4 star. The whole place was suffering from neglect. The staff were very friendly and did their best, but they were working without... more

We've just come back from a week long stay at the Plaza and it's a lovely hotel. As with all catered accomodation, the food gets repetative, but there was always something we were happy to eat, and there's certainly nothing wrong with it - no deli beli while we were there. It was very clean, the staff are fantastic and... more

Just had a holiday of a life time at the PBH. Staff were superb, always happy and smiling and so friendly,we felt really at home. The room overlooking the sea added that extra bonus. Food was delicious, the service first class, and everwhere was so clean. Wilfred and Benson are wonderful, they look after everyone. The animation team deserve a... more

As in other reviews Wilfred is one hell of a man, and Checo on the beach is the man for your trips. Don't belive all you hear abot the beaqch boys. The animation... more

We stayed at the Plaza Beach hotel for our second honeymoon, and after doing our homework on trip advisor, we thought that it looked a nice place to stay, although some reviews called it basic. Well it could be called basic if it's 5 star luxury you are after, however all the facilities you need for a wonderful holiday are... more
