Hotels in Tanzania

Super beach bungalows with real ocean view.

This place is absolutely beautiful and even better than the photos. With only a few rooms, it feels incredibly calm and exclusive — like having your own private beach house in Zanzibar. The design is stunning: clean white walls, natural floors, wooden beams, handcrafted furniture, and soft neutral tones everywhere. The rooms are extremely spacious, bright, and airy, with extremely comfortable beds and thoughtful details throughout. The open-plan bathroom is gorgeous — modern, minimal, and perfectly in harmony with the overall style. Outside, the pool overlooking the ocean is a highlight. Swimming while looking out at the turquoise water and endless horizon is unforgettable, especially at sunset. The beachfront terrace with loungers is perfect for relaxing, reading, or just doing nothing at all. The location in Pongwe is quiet and unspoiled, ideal if you’re looking for peace and authenticity rather than crowds. Waking up to the sound of the ocean and palm trees is pure magic. Everything is spotless and very well maintained, and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming without feeling busy or intrusive. If you love boutique hotels with character, beautiful design, and a relaxed luxury feel, this place is a real gem. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it.

The African Paradise Beach Hotel fully lives up to its name. From the very first moment in this hotel, we felt at home. In Paradise! The kindests owners do everything and even more to please their guests. Everything is perfectly clean, the breakfast is very rich (three-course or maybe more), and all the staff is very kind and responsive. We tried almost the entire menu of the restaurant and everything was great and delicious. Pia organized our transfers from Stonetown and then to Nungwi at a very reasonable price. We also had a free snorkeling boat ride. Warm greetings to all of you, guys - your hotel will forever remain in my heart. I would love to see you again someday. Wish you all the best!

It’s just an amazing place with a great location. We received the full attention of the friendly and highly skilled staff—from the excellent bar service to the extraordinary food. In particular, I want to say a special thanks to David Larius, the Front Office Manager. He was incredibly helpful in arranging our flight, which we had booked on short notice. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, topped off with an amazing game drive we will never forget.

One of the best accomodations I've experienced. Food is very good, staff is very pleasant and helpful. Owner helped my father with his backpain. Cannot imagine better place to stay.

Absolutely everything, the pool, the setting, no too busy (20 rooms), the room, the people, the food is amazing

Breakfast was good - good selection of fruit, lovely omelette

the staff is wonderful, the food always delicious and fresh, the bungalows spacey and comfy, all made from local material, short drive away from park, in beautiful setting! Leppa, the self-taught masai owner and guide is simply wonderful! very caring and always ensuring everyone is having a good time. he is very knowledgeable about the parks, the animals and very good at spotting or finding the. He also enthusiastically shares his Masai culture and background to render every activity and game drive with him simply magical!

Authentic and wild, I would recommend sincerely. The huts are very nice inside, the location is great with nice wild animals roaming near to the hotel and Jospeh prepared us fires whilst Suzan & Agnus made us a nice buffet dinner under the stars. Food is a bit more for Tanzania but dinner very nice.

Kijani Beach Villa was a revelation! Ten days of pure bliss in this little corner of paradise created by José, Maarten and their two children. With our feet in the white sand, lulled by the gentle lapping of the waves, we savoured every moment. The turquoise waters and azure skies create an idyllic picture, complemented by the lush vegetation and birdsong. Aliya, the manager, is a ray of sunshine who did everything she could to make our stay even more magical. The staff are attentive, discreet and smiling. The boat trips and activities on offer delighted the whole family. And what about the cuisine? A treat at every meal, thanks to the chef's talent for concocting tasty dishes. An unforgettable stay! Thank you all for your warm welcome.

The breakfast was super and also the dinner was super. The staff helpful and always smiling. Like the owner. The area and the room was very clean. Nice pool. Close to the beach. Good service. Over all its an amazing place to stay at. I will absolutely recommend it. Overall ++++++++++++++++++++++

This is a very new place focussing on diving excursions with two very well equipped cabins. It is situated in the beautiful marine park area where scuba diving is exceptional. The area is not overrun by tourists and the cabin is a very cosy and restful place. Enjoy one of the evening cocktails, prepared by the friendly staff or relax at the poolside. The small resort arranges shuttle service to and from the airport.
