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 had the pleasure of staying at this beautiful hotel, and it truly exceeded all expectations. Although it's just a short distance from the bustling city of Dar es Salaam, it felt like a peaceful oasis, offering a perfect escape from the everyday hustle and bustle. The serene atmosphere and lush surroundings made it feel like a home away from home. The staff were exceptional – incredibly friendly and attentive, making me feel welcome from the moment I arrived. Their warmth and hospitality truly stood out, and I felt like I was among friends throughout my stay. The food was absolutely fantastic, with a breakfast spread that was not only delicious but also varied and fresh. Every meal was a treat, and I looked forward to every dining experience. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a peaceful retreat with outstanding service and incredible food. It was truly an unforgettable experience!

Everything! Great location, design, amazing staff and service from reception to concierge to restaurant to room service to housekeeping to laundry! Everyone was so lovely, polite, helpful and professional. Great pool area too and lovely spa I’m gutted to miss. Lots of great restaurants and food options plus a great bar. Breakfast was fantastic! A really wide and tasty range. Also the restaurants do themed nights on various days and I was fortunate enough to catch the African Night and I couldn’t recommend it enough! There was loads of great food, a great atmosphere (packed with locals) and a brilliant live band. It was a bargain too. In fact, I thought the whole stay was great value for money. Loved it! Great atmosphere too! I’ll be back.

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.
