Highly recommended
Pros:

We had a lovely stay at the Mediteraneo. The staff is really nice, the rooms are clean and the hotel is right next to the beach with amazing views and ambience. The restaurant is relatively pricey but still a good value for foreign tourists.

Pros:

Great vibe at the pool and restaurant with a lovely artist singing. Had an amazing massage and loved the relaxation. The beach, unfortunately, is filled with trash and tons of jellyfish...But I still enjoyed a long walk.

I would definitely recommend staying for a few days of R&R.

Garden Oasis on the Beach
Pros:

Upon arrival you're greeted with lush greenery that is immediately calming. I arrived early and was able to keep my luggage on the property until check-in. Overall, the grounds are immaculately kept and the service is nice. The room was spacious and clean. I liked that there is a fan and AC. I did not use the patio but it was covered with comfy pillows if you wanted to lay out and read or nap during your stay. The only con is that the bathroom showerhead was filled with grime that I cleaned off and informed the front desk about. You may have to flush the toilet twice. I'd stay again and try the restaurant.

Pros:

The reception, cleaning and waiters were exceptional. The owners would be well to greet customers and at least interact in passing. Toilet wasn't functioning upon arrival but was fixed by the next morning. Breakfast could be improved. Room was pleasant and comfortable.

Pros:

Most staff were very kind and helpful, some seemed disinterested in their job. The breakfast could use a refresh with a few more options for vegan and gluten free guests. Hot water was not working most times and when it was it was scalding hot. Safe also not working and despite asking for it to be fixed, it never was repaired during our 3 night stay.

Hidden Gem
Pros:

This small hotel is off the beaten path. The rooms are basic but clean and have everything that we needed.
We arrived late at night and no housekeeping came the next day.
Pool and beach were wonderful as was the breakfast that we had. Great coffee.

My Go-To Hotel in Dar Es Salaam
Pros:

The location and ambience of the hotel are superb. I greatly enjoy listening to and watching the waves crash against the rocks under the restaurant in the morning and evening. The rooms are comfortable and the food is good. The service this time was not as on point as before (staff seem very young and distracted), but was still average in their response to my few needs. I'll be back.

Pros:

Inotially going to the property, the scenery was same as main road, once we got on the property and is beautiful. If you did not know where you were, you would have thought you were at a world class 4-star hotel. Staff is great and helped us with our wedding reception. Awesome by the Indian Ocean.
