Tropical South Florida hotel with a lovable tiki bar
The palm tree-lined beach sets a blissful scene at the Beachcomber Resort & Villas, a Pompano Beach hotel where two large outdoor pools are the center of the action. When beachgoers are finished playing volleyball or shuffleboard, they flock to the casual tiki bar or back to their rooms, luxurious and intimate with Floridian furniture and curved balconies. All rooms are non-smoking and include free Wi-Fi, and guests enjoy complimentary passes to a nearby gym, which is within driving distance.
Highlights
- Two large outdoor pools, shuffleboard and beach volleyball
- Indoor and outdoor poolside patio dining and bar
- Free passes to a local gym, within driving distance
- Free Wi-Fi
- Direct access to the beach
Rooms
Rooms and villas at the Beachcomber Resort & Villas brim with Floridian flavor. Wood sleigh beds feature intricate post carvings. Table and floor lamps also bear palm tree-structured bases, a throwback to colonial estate grandeur. Some rooms include plantation shutters and curved Mediterranean-style balconies. Layouts vary, with some rooms offering direct or indirect ocean views. Standard amenities include free Wi-Fi, a coffee-maker with complimentary coffee, TV with pay-per-view in-room movies, voice mail, a safe and an iron with ironing board.
Recreation
Swaying palms and a pristine coastline paint a postcard perfect setting by the two large outdoor pools. Hungry and thirsty sunbathers at the Beachcomber Resort & Villas belly-up to the tiki bar or order light bites underneath patio umbrellas. Shuffleboard and beach volleyball are on the leisure menu and for traditional workouts, guests can take advantage of free passes to a nearby local gym.

Pre Cruise
Our group of 4 spent 2 days at the Beachcomber Resort and Villas before going on our cruise. We all thought the hotel was fantastic! It was clean, and well maintained. Staff was helpful and friendly. Location was easy to find and access. Not too much shopping within walking distance, but we had a rental car so this wasn't a factor for us. We really enjoyed being able to walk out the door and be directly on the beach! I'm always leery when I book a hotel online, but was very happy when we arrived. Will stay here again and recomend it to our friends!

The hotel staff were very attentive, however, our room had a terrible moldy smell to it. Loved the hotel, loved the location, loved the amenities. Too bad the room had an overwhelming moldy smell, or I would've rated it a 4+.

Good location
I had noted the staff and maintenance 4 times about " squeaky " door hinges and door missing the small bumpers to close silently. This was apparent in other rooms as well on the 4th floor, as each time your door closes, the whole hallway wakes up. During my stay, there was nothing done for the door hinges ( would have only needed some WD40 )

We checked in the day after New Years and were going to stay 3 nights and move on...After our first day we decided we wanted to stay as long as we could and booked another 5 nights! Steps from our room to the sand, pool, bar and everything you could possibly want or need within walking distance!

Beautiful location, smelly old hotel
The location, beach and pool are wonderful. The hallways and room are somewhat decrepit, smell like mildew, disinfectant and/or a bad ventilation system. The room was kind of winding and strange. The TV has very few channels. There is wi-fi. There is a balcony in room which is nice. The restaurant was rather awful. The waitress brought me tea with water that was cold. When I pointed it out, she said that the heating switch was not turned on, but did not apologize or show any regret. Frankly, not worth the money.
