What guests say
8.6 / 10 · Very good on Booking.com, from 557 guest reviews
Safari Hotel Boardwalk earns strong, consistent praise for its unbeatable boardwalk location, genuinely welcoming staff, and well-maintained cleanliness — with several guests returning year after year. The main trade-off is that rooms are compact and noticeably dated, and the property lacks amenities like a pool or room service that some travellers expect.
