Best Hotels in Tanzania

Qambani is a lovely, quiet resort with a wonderful atmosphere. The food is excellent, the staff are friendly and helpful, the rooms are comfortable and lovingly decorated

I especially appreciate the overall aesthetic of the decor looking like it was cobbled together from shipwrecks and driftwood

The facilities and amenities are excellent, including access to a private beach and three pools. The fresh food and daily fruits were outstanding

All of these things would have earned Qambani 5 stars by themselves, but I really wish I could give them 6 stars. They went above and beyond for us. We were caught up in the troubles from the recent election

The staff we met from housekeeping, gardeners, waiting staff, pool area staff, to the supervisors we dealt with, each and everyone was helpful, polite, professional and exceptionally warm and friendly

The food was very good, not 5* but still tasty and well presented! All in all, we had a great time!

Their shows, activities, and constant good vibes made every day more fun and memorable. Thanks to this incredible team, our stay was not just a holiday, but a truly enjoyable and unforgettable experience

A special mention goes to the animators Ugo, Nino, and Ercole — they were simply fantastic! Always energetic, friendly, and genuinely caring, they managed to involve everyone with enthusiasm and smiles

I was in this resort during Christmas 2024 with my partner and it was wonderful. The essential location is very characteristic, contained in size as we like it. You eat very well and the staff is very kind and prepared

We had an absolutely wonderful experience, and a big part of it was thanks to the amazing team. Director Francesco runs everything with great professionalism, passion, and attention to detail

You can really feel his leadership in the smooth organization and welcoming atmosphere

beautiful!!! The Italian management makes itself felt, thanks to the manager Francesco who has set up a staff of local guys who speak Italian very well and are able to satisfy every need of tourists, ULTIMO BIONDO and PICCOLO

The sea water is overheated, full of seaweed and garbage items. This is due to the reef being like a kilometer away and blocking water exchange. This hotel is no good for beach and sea lovers

Had an amazing stay at Nest Style Resort. Truly one for the books! 🌴🙌🏽 The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming at all times

Beautiful resort, a piece of paradise❤️ thank you for making our holiday so memorable. Had the best time with our kids, Fun in the sun, swimming all day long in the pool and beach…. Endless cocktails and delicious food

Special shoutout to Salu for always making sure everything was perfect and that we were well taken care of. Made unforgettable memories and met some wonderful people

Thank you to every employee who was always kind and helpful, a few names who we can still remember… Ramadan, Clara Marie, Sally, Vuyami, Fabiola the awesome bartenders, chefs etc Thank you thank you thank you

And great dinners and lovely coffee in the morning🙂 The hotel staff is supportive and helpful. Ocean is beautiful in every time of the day. I spent lovely 10 days there and would definitely go back

The only working we didn’t like, was the staff barging into our rooms unannounced in the evening to spray for mosquitos. It was very invasive and just not necessary. Do it during room cleaning or change over or something

Pizzas were amazing, pool was tricky, I almost drawn, yet saved and enjoyed alot. Very nice and thoughful, purely the touch of zanzibar.

It's a excellent experience with my friends Staff is good and friendly Food is also awesome I recommend to enjoy your vacation

Kena beach hotel is excellent, The staff is very friendly and professional The rooms are very clean I also enjoyed the faod and their fresh fruits I can’t forget that they surprised me with a birthday cake on my birthday I will definitely go back The seven days I stayed there were awesome

The rooms were lovely, the place is surrounded in beautiful trees and plants, you walk from your rooms to the pool/dining area which is located on the beach. The staff were simply the best, so friendly and polite

If you want to spend quality time this is a very good option. You can come with your friends and family , staff are very cooperative

I really highly recommend this club, very clean, good vibes, relaxing, greenaries, nice beach, amazing food, wonderful and friendly staff. it was just amazing and we look forward to visit again

Our stay at this resort was absolutely wonderful and exceeded all expectations. Even though the weather wasn’t the best during our visit, it didn’t take away from the experience at all

I would highly recommend this resort to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway while still wanting to immerse themselves in a setting that reflects genuine African authenticity. We would definitely come back!

The ambience of the place and the courtesy of the staff was exceptional- the food was not only ever so delicious but its presentation was superb- 10/10 from our side- hope to revisit and stay for longer

On top of that, the entertainment team did an amazing job organizing a variety of tournaments and activities throughout the day, keeping the atmosphere lively and engaging despite the rain

Great food and ambiance!!! The chef made personal efforts to make sure everything was up to the mark. The professionalism and quality of food and service was 5 star!!!!

There was a small buffet and a good sized menu to choose from. We especially enjoyed the tuna eggs benedict. We also enjoyed lunch around the pool. One of our favourites was the tuna tartar

A good place to,good customer service and friendly

On the last day we were moved to a different bungalow with a private pool. This room was equally spacious and comfortable. And having our own pool was a treat. Breakfast was included with our room

There is also a nice wine selection. It is the staff that puts White Paradise above the rest. The front desk, housekeeping, wait and bar staff could not have been more friendly and helpful

There is food/drink service at both. The beach at the hotel is not a swimming beach. To compensate for that the resort also offers a shuttle service to a nearby beach three times a day

But a special thank you to Vladi. Always with a warm smile and so helpful to us in planning our activities. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at White Paradise and can not wait to return

  The rooms are spacious and kept very clean, and the bathroom is modern. Everything was cleaned thoroughly every day, and fresh towels were provided upon request. The air conditioning works perfectly and is very quiet

The beds were prepared for the night. The food in the restaurant was outstanding. They prepared local dishes for us on request, and once we were even allowed to watch the chef and were introduced to the local cuisine

This property was absolutely magical. If you’re looking for a low key off the grid vibe, this is the place. There’s no Wi-Fi in the room but it’s available in the common area overlooking the beach

We stayed in the 2 bedroom family villa. Such a comfortable and private stay. Our private butler (Kayphas) was always available to supported our every request with precision

The entire staff was very attentive and friendly; every wish was fulfilled whenever possible. The grounds are guarded by Maasai, who provide a sense of security day and night

I highly recommend the Kivuli Beach Resort and look forward to coming back very soon.   To the dear resort family: Please preserve your special, welcoming atmosphere!

The flowers and the general aura is really amazing. The customer service is also high quality. 😊😊 The art work in the rooms is meaningful and the massage was excellent

Trip of a lifetime with our family and another family we knew. However we met 5 other incredible families that will be friends for life! The experience was beyond incredible for our family

The memories made and impact will truly last forever and we couldn’t be more thrilled with ROAM and everything they do to help support families, women and children! Truly a blast and an incredible week packed with energy, laughter and JOY!!!!!!!

A real highlight was the incredible Ayurvedic massage—so relaxing and rejuvenating. Overall, it offers amazing value for money, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience

The pool area is peaceful and nicely arranged, making it a great place to unwind or enjoy time with friends and family

What a perfect way to end our 8- night safari! This place truly exceeded expectations, especially for families

Arrived late night after a challenging day travelling from Arusha Met with very friendly , kind and accommodating reception staff They made sure we have the room that we really like Then we met the manger Farah very friendly explained everything about resort activities Food excellent, inclusive breakfast a la Carte delicious We ate in every night Tuna tartare Local biryani specially prepared ( not...

Wauw, Zanzibar Sunrise is one of the best places we have ever stayed at

The beach and the sea in front of our room. The swimming Pool just 20 steps away. The sunbeds are really comfortable. The staff is really friendly, the food, WOW! Like there is a 5 star cheff in the kitchen

It has it all: beautiful location right on the beach, greenery all around, super friendly and helpfull staff and last but not least, an amazing restaurant and cook

Also highly recommend the free yoga classes, taught by Farah :) The place has a very mellow and relaxed vibe with lots of attention to detail

If you want something amazing? Go for this place. Sadly enough ore last day today

Well staffed, clean and affordable. Kitchen (lunch and dinner) was slow but not a problem. Breakfast included was a buffet. Internet was somewhat problematic but workable. Good laundry and ironing service.

Overall a decent place to stay. Rooms were clean, staff were largely friendly. Food in the restaurant was good but the service varied from slow to abysmal.

I just attended a meeting. The meeting halls are spacious and the menu is good. Someone may comment on amenities.

Cool place 💤🛜👍 Value of money 💯 A place to be ✅ Better view of mountains So delicous food ie:- fish makange,local makange (chicken) indian food Breakfast morng english buffet with live cooking homelet #scrammbel#spanish Fresh juice 🫶 Clean enviroment Cool view of town city🌌🌇🌆

Its location is very convenient, fablulous rooms and impeccable dining and services offered I had a great time, enjoyed a lot

Loved the variety of food during breakfast, Loved it! Price is trully affordable with regard to the standards of the place. I jus wish it was outside the city with varities like pool and garden & Outsiede garden

Great beach (some growth when we were there but only a slight minus), great food and small and hospitable place. The best thing is the staff though. Above and beyond is all that needs to be said!

Sunsets, pole pole, perfect beach, chill vibes, fresh food from the trees and the sea. Everything you need or want to be happy is right in front of you here. Grab a kayak and spend the day in the mangroves

She called at the airport and managed the transport of our stuff to our location wich went very well. The rooms have been cleaned every day perfectly by the lovely housekeeping-ladys

Explore the village, people here are friendly and chill. Low tide? Go on a walk or swim in the pool. Happy hour for sunset and drinks. Come here and you will be happy

The hotel is well maintained and they do there very best to enjoy the stay. However, due to it's very high price the expectations are high as well

Huge shoutout to Shirley and the team for the impeccable rooms, service, food, everything… and most of all making us feel like family

We are visit the hotel in October for one week. The rooms is very clean, staff was absolutely very nice and they always smile. The animation team also very good. Cocktails very nice mandarin Cocktail very delicious

I stayed at Mandarin Hotel for 20 days for business. The food, rooms, and location of the hotel are very good. It is a very good choice for a seaside and quiet holiday. There is music and entertainment at night

Staff was very good and nice the animation team amazing we will 3back again next year

In one place you will find everything you need. If you are looking for friendliness, intimacy and a family atmosphere, go to the paradise of Zanzibar Mandarin where entertainment and excitement are available

Most importantly, the staff is very friendly

Amazing holiday at the great place. really we are enjoying all the time, the hotel is very beautiful. everything is amazing there staff very helpful and very professional they always smile food very delicious

Good breakfast, excellent emplacement and good food

If you like the local style, this hotel is the best among the hotels and is highly recommended. Because it is right by the sea, there will be crows as your companions during the open breakfast

The price/performance ratio is good for an all-inclusive hotel in Zanzibar. The beach outside the hotel is very beautiful. The sunset is super beautiful. I spent three nights happily.

It was a really lovely place and the staff were very helpful and friendly but there was no lift and we were on the top floor. And also the food in the restaurant for lunch and dinner was average at best

The overall feeling is good, but the network is not good and it is a bit far from the swimming pool.

The room is very big and the electrical appliances are Chinese brands! The beach is right at the door, so it's convenient to go out to the sea. The hotel has three swimming pools and the children had a lot of fun

I tried to make the best of my last few days but because of the food and the feeling ill I couldn't wait to go home. The owners really need to get their act together with the food as it is just not good enough

This resort in Zanzibar is perfect for honeymooners and relaxing by the pool. It is centrally located for excursions. It has an excellent resturant accessed by a long boardwalk over the changing tides

The cocktails were delicious and very good value - as were the wine and spirits. The dining area looks over the beach and the Indian Ocean. The infinity pool is crystal clear and also looks out onto the Indian Ocean

The hotel is very nice but is starting to look a little tired in places. The swimming pool and beach are lovely and it's a very relaxing place to be. The food I'm afraid is not good

not a good start! At lunchtime we decided to share a pizza. It was a shop bought pizza and I don't have a problem with that but this pizza was awful

We were constantly asking for butter to be put out and for more tea. By day 3 we were eating very little at the hotel and we found a nice little place at the end of the beach where you can get dinner for less than $4

They seemed genuinely happy to see me and were always eager to ensure I had the best possible stay. I've the chance to meet the manager, she was so kind and such a beautiful person!! Everything was absolutely perfect

The reception team was magnificent, ALWAYS smiling and genuinely caring. Whether at the restaurant with Martha (best!) or by the pool, the atmosphere was incredibly calm, and the staff were simply perfect

Aluna Paje is very good, good food, beautiful location, very kind staff. We will definitely be back!

The housekeeping service was impeccable—the room was spotless every single day. They were incredibly discreet, yet always ensured everything was fresh. What truly stands out, however, is the staff

The only thing I would say is the bed was very loud and a tad uncomfortable to sleep on! Other than that it was a pleasant stay. We even come back after to have there morning buffet breakfast

This little hotel is a gem in Paje. It's super clean, beautifully decorated, has a breakfast area overlooking the pool, fresh juices in the morning, and very friendly staff

The accommodation is extremely spacious (the villa that we stayed in was over 100 square meters, with an outside covered terrace and situated right on the edge of the beach, with a stunning view of the sea)

Food in the evenings included a variety of vegetables and salads, and as well as a selection of meat and vegetarian dishes each evening, there was almost always fresh fish being cooked on the grill, which was delicious

We opted for a half-board formula (breakfast and evening meal) and enjoyed delicious breakfasts with a selection of fresh fruit juices, fresh tropical fruits, eggs, pancakes, waffles and pastries

One of the stand-out features of this hotel is the service. The staff and management are not only very friendly and helpful - nothing is too much trouble for them - but extremely professional

Furthermore, it was immaculately clean (as other reviewers state, the cleaners come in twice daily, and the sheets and towels are replaced regularly)

The gardens are also beautiful, full of a range colourful plants and trees, and kept impeccable

It was a beautiful and quiet hotel. Staff and food were excellent, lovely big rooms. Shame the sea is tidal and not the prettiest but the hotel is lovely.

Stayed in Marafiki Bungalows for 3 nights. Amazing place, very hood service from all staff +reception, clean and comfy Bungalow, great pool ,bar and tasty breakfast

This is our all time favourite stay, beautiful gardens, lovely sea view, staff are exceptional. Everyone went out of their way to make our stay great. Food was excellent Felt like we were staying with a family

We stayed here for 5 nights and had a lovely time! Good food, plenty of options for meals. Lovely pool, nice small beach area which is suitable for swimming at certain times of the days

The beach on this side(east) is affected more by the tide, 5 minutes ride and you are at Kinengwa beach, one of the best in the world

A special thank you to Jackson who took care of all our food needs & the ladies working reception. Easy 1 hour ride from Zanzibar airport & would definitely return to Marafiki

Thanks to the hotel management for making the hotel more convenient for guests to experience the African culture. You won’t find a better place to stay at this price. Good rooms, staff and peaceful

Good value, nice clean hotel, quiet location, not many food options around but the Wildebeest restaurant next door was good for a local (but good for westerners) food and cheap beers

Good service and hospitality is great and wonderful. The weather was fine and the room services also. Thank you so much and see you next time

The room was clean and well organized, the location was close to the airport and the bed was good too. Everything about my stay was perfect

The best experience i had in Arusha. I arrived at Kilimanjaro International Airport and the rest was an awesome experience from arrival to departure

The food at the restaurant was good and filling after long days hiking or trekking around the city

Good location, friendly staffs. The balcony of the rooms are separated by kind of a board which doesn't cover enough on the floor part, someone can cross to another room at the balcony

They serve a good tropical breakfast very delicious 😋

The service is very good and very welcoming

The facilities are really good. It's located at the city center so it's easy to move around Morogoro. The customer service depend on who you will find that day. They are not rude but a little bit disorganized.

A good hotel spacious rooms tea and coffee with a small fridge inside. Cold and hot water included with clean up amenities but the lift (elevator) was soooo slow other than that it was a decent experience

Clean and basic. Good hot water and AC.

Other than that I would say that is a very good choice if you want to stay in Paje

We stayed for six nights over Christmas and had a wonderful experience. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made us feel safe and truly at home

We enjoyed the pool, the beach, the good food, and especially how the team made Christmas Eve extra special—it felt more like a celebration with friends than a hotel event

On our last day, we were kindly given a late check-out as I wasn’t feeling well, and the manager/owner were very helpful in assisting me with finding a pharmacy

Amazing people, the personal are always happy, and helpful and very kind. The room was extremely clean and very comfortable bed. Amazing beach. Good, tasty food. We had a wonderful time! Thank you for everyone 🙂

The entire resort is very well maintained, and the lovingly designed garden invites you to relax. The staff were extremely friendly and always helpful. The food was excellent, we enjoyed every single dish
