Hotels in Tanzania

This place was stunning. There are plenty activities starting from riding a bike along the beach (which you can lend for free, just like the kayaks) kayaking, swimming & snorkeling, partying in Paje (so easy to get there and the hosts will give you perfect advice where the best party is) you can do many activities like snorkeling or spice tours, the Rock is very close, or just chilling at the beautiful hotel and enjoying a drink or really really good food. Also the place is perfectly quiet in the night. WI-FI was working super good. The pets are too cute and the hosts were super nice and always welcoming and caring, just as the staff. Altogether they made sure, we get everything we need and made our stay super relaxing and uncomplicated. The hosts helped us in so many ways and it was a pleasure to chat with them (they have a good sense of humor as well :)). Rooms were clean and tidy, just as the rest of the hotel. We can recommend 100%. And best breakfast ever!!

This place is a hidden gem in Dodoma. When I first booked it, I didn't expect the place to be this beautiful. Upon my check-in, all the staff and the manager, Mr Audax, were all so welcoming, and the hospitality was another level. Honestly, the calmness I felt here, I wanted to extend my stay. I will definitely book again. Thank you, Teranga team, you gave me a relaxing stay in my hectic life.

The amenities were top notch. The staff were just so attentive and caring. The food was excellent. The view and pool side area was spectacular. Oh and rooms, so comfortable and spacious. Definitely would Visit again in the future

We loved our stay here. All the staff were lovely, the owners couldn’t do enough for you, the vibe was so relaxing and the breakfast was delicious! My hubby and I also had a massage at the spa and we both said that it was one of the best massages we’ve ever had. I highly recommend this place.

I booked this accommodation for what was suppose to be 2 nights only, and thereafter I was to leave, stay in other areas around the island to explore. The property is just like the photos, if not better! It’s quiet, intimate, super clean and very close to Nungwi beach & a variety of restaurants. I loved it so much that I decided to extend my stay by a further 3 nights!! As a solo traveller, safety and security was a top concern for me. The property is safe, there is a security guard at the entrance during the day & evenings. The food is delicious, the staff is attentive and excellent! I was fortunate to be welcomed by the owner Max when I arrived on the 5th of November! I appreciate that he took time to meet me and explain everything to me - where the closest ATM is, how to get to the beach and he shared some really great tips for my stay on the island!! I can’t recommend this place enough. If I ever come back to Nungwi again, I’d definitely stay here! My room is beautiful, comfortable with hot water. The WiFi is also great here, very stable!

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

african furniture and design, location, friendy staff, the rooms were very spacious and well equipped.

Everything was excellent, as soon as I’ve crossed the gate to African Bungalow’s, I knew this bungalows have something special. Firstly I came across the owner and I’ve already felt extremely welcomed and well taken care of. All staff working there is super nice, helpful, kind and smiley. Rooms are spacious, very clean, all of them have terrace. Mine specially had pool view (if I’m not mistaken all of them are in front of the pool), so you can enter the pool straight from your terrace which is great. Fact that bungalows have pool is amazing as it gives you a chance to rest a bit from sometimes busy beach around. Walk to the beach is like 2 minutes which is huge advantage of that place also. In general location is perfect. Breakfast is excellent. Amenities in the room are great, AC works perfectly! I’m really grateful to come across this bungalows as it gave me lovely memories! I can highly recommend this place and I promise, you don’t regret staying there. I’m sure I will come back here next time :)

The welcome that Jennifer & I got from Rama (Manager) when we arrived was most impressive & it set the tone for our 5 day 4 night stay. All the staff were good mannered, friendly & professional. They went out of their way to make sure we were always comfortable and kept informed of the menus & activities. Ricardo & Vip (owners) were on hand each day to connect & checkin with us to see if we were enjoying the experience at their wonderful lodge. It certainly is an escape hideaway treasure, right on the beautiful Swahili coast in Pangani. A peaceful paradise, a place to relax with amazing sunrise views & waking each morning to the soothing sound of the birds dawn chorus. The bandas are beautifully prepared & furnished to the highest standards. Pangani Cliff Lodge is off-grid but has its own onsite state of the art Solar powered system with provides 24hour coverage which was most welcome to power lights, wifi & particularly the fans all through the hot balmy nights. We enjoyed exploring the amazing coral rock pools at low tide on their private beach & frolicking in the swimming pool every late afternoon before sundown. The meals were beautifully presented, varied & scrumptious. We thoroughly enjoyed the relaxing massages outdoor on the cliff top listing to the sounds of the ocean.

Very pleasant stay: Beautiful location with amazing view, very good dinners and cocktails, very comfortable rooms, ... and also very good advice and support in the organization of our stay. Very quiet place and direct access to the beach. The most pleasant: We received a warm welcome, and the staff was discret and very attentive. We almost felt at home! We highly recommend this hotel.

What makes Palmera so special is its inspiring mission. The hotel and restaurant operate as a hospitality school for local young women, and the exceptional service they provide is a direct reflection of their training. From their warm smiles to their impeccable attention to detail, you can feel the genuine pride they take in their work. The hotel's setting is pure paradise. The infinity pool overlooking the turquoise sea is mesmerizing, and the lush, immaculately kept gardens create a perfect oasis for relaxation. It was wonderful to be able to walk barefoot through the fine sand and simply enjoy the tranquility. For anyone, but especially for vegans, the restaurant is a must-visit. The creative and delicious vegan dishes, all beautifully prepared and presented by the talented students, were a true highlight. It's a testament to the high-quality training they are receiving. The breakfast, in particular, was the best I had during my three-week stay in Tanzania, the homemade warm bread and homemade chocolate spread were unforgettable. For lunch and dinner, with main courses priced between $11 and $13, it offers exceptional value. This 15-room hotel is a quiet retreat. I stayed when it was almost empty and had no issues with noise, but even when full, the large garden and pool area should provide plenty of space for guests. The price range for double rooms in the 2025 high season was 70-100 USD. All rooms face the sea, though the view can be a bit limited from some of the downstairs rooms. While the large windows are beautiful, the curtains don’t fully cover them, which could be a privacy concern for some. I prefer a firm mattress, and the bed was perfect for me, but it might be a bit too hard for others. The solar-powered hot water worked flawlessly. The road to the hotel is a little bumpy on the last kilometer, but there are plans to improve it. In the bathrooms, I would have appreciated a bit more space to dry towels, or a drying rack on the terrace.
