Had a great stay at the Joleen Safari Park Hotel. The Owner and staff are very professional and helpful in this new small hotel, which is well maintained and peaceful.There was always staff there 24 hours a day if you needed anything. I had some amazing local dishes for dinner but they would make what you like. The beaches are close by, beautiful, clean and empty , except for a for local fisherman. I had a few nice surf sessions and arranged though the hotel a cheap taxi and the driver was super nice and helpful who got me to all the best beaches. I stayed on for twice as long.

I was truly especially enjoyed the terrace and garden located on the third floor, which offer a stunning 360° panoramic view. It’s an ideal spot for those who enjoy walking or exercising outdoors. My sincere thanks to all the hotel staff for their kindness and professionalism, especially to Jacquiline, head of the reception department, and Janet, for their exceptional service.

I had a wonderful stay at Hotel Totara and even extended by a few days. The room was very clean, the bed was huge, lots of hot water, aircon, fan, super fast WiFi, and massive TV with Netflix, YouTube, Google Fire TV. The staff were amazing - courteous and kind - and the breakfast buffet delicious. It is a short 5 minute walk to the ocean and Slipway Complex in one direction, and the other direction are restaurants and bars like the famous Samaki Samaki. Highly recommend and would definitely stay here again!

We chose this hotel to be close to the airport and it was a very good choice. Clean, comfortable and the windows are well isolated, so no noises at night. The closest road need to be fixed, so take into account it will take more time to come back to the airport. Anyway, the staff is wonderful. They helped us immediately when we thought we had lost our bag.

Food is very affordable in Dar and there are plenty of food options. Getting around Dar is so easy as you can use the Bolt app where it is affordable. I had dinner at Orchid Cafe which had a cozy vibe. Experienced night life in Wavuvi and Samaki Samaki and it was very memorable since they play all song genres. I experienced a Sunset Cruise in Dhow in Dar which was at Kigamboni and it was amazing especially when the sun sets.

Masaki was beautiful.

Masaki was beautiful. I went shopping at Kariakoo and uuugh it was crazy packed with traffic of people. I wouldn't advise it if you don't have to. Stay in Masaki, Oyster Bay, and the surrounding explore the beaches, bars, restaurants, and other hangout joints.
