Fitness-friendly vacation rentals in Ilala

The day before arriving in Tanzania host Esther (who has an apartment in the same building but lives in Europe) cancelled on us without warning and blocked us on Airbnb, leaving me and several other visiting doctors stranded without housing! I am currently in the process of getting her banned from Airbnb because I consider this behavior dangerous - be warned. Thankfully, Maximilian came to our rescue and managed to make an apartment available the same day without prior notice. He is an excellent communicator, very friendly, and always helpful! Much appreciated!

Comfortable place in downtown Dar el Salaam.

Shuru is very gracious and very helpful if you need information or even picking up items in the area. He went above and beyond and was always very eager to help.

If I could give five stars for the view, I would give 10… very good located for the national Museum, the ferry and the spectacular fish market!

100% recommended! Spacious, clean, nice room in an also spacious and clean shared apartment in a nice and safe area. My highlight was Dixita herself - well organized, available, supportive and more than just a random, anonymous host. I really enjoyed the week in Dar at your place and with you, thanks for everything <3

This accommodation was well equipped, comfortable and integral to my time in Tanzania. Richone was responsive and professional and ensured my comfort during my stay. I recommend this listing to anyone looking for a place to call home while away from home. Asante Brother !

The place was very wonderful,clean and tidy also there is a spectacular view of the city from the place

A lovely place to stay, he was so easy to communicate with

Excellent stay, good location, clean and property as described. Very responsive hosting, property was cleaned regularly. Recommended.

Felt Great

The place has plenty of room for our family. Location off the beach. Beautiful views of the ocean. A short walk to Palm Village if you are in the mood. Theresa was an excellent host, very responsive. If you plan on staying longer than a few days, You will probably have to pay for electricity. The process was easy. We enjoyed our extended stay here. Thanks!

Nancy's place is wonderful. It was easy to locate. All amenities were available. My colleagues and I had a wonderful time there. I would definately book this apartment again whenever I come to Dar Es Salam. The assistance at the building was quick. Wonderful place.

Amazing apartment complex i enjoyed my time there, very family oriented and friendly. It’s near stores, restaurants, and a beautiful beach that I loved very much. The hosts are polite and friendly never had a complaint, I would highly recommend!!!

Tina was an amazing host, her place looks exacexactly like the pictures and in a very quiet neighborhood. She helped me alot showing me how to get around Tanzania and was very welcoming aswell.

Great host, beautiful scenery, felt right at home and the gym & the terrace was a treat for us oh plus the pool.

Definitely looking forward to my next visit. It’s quite homely, and a hidden gem. I particularly enjoyed the facilities, and the interior design. The patio was a great spot to grab some air and relax. The host was kind, and super helpful. Overall, would recommend.

Lovely place. I enjoyed my time there. the bed is really comfy

Great place to stay while vacationing in Dar es Salaam. Easy check in and Care taker Malaki was always available for any question. Definitely I am recommending this place.

We loved staying at Gimstone's place. It's located in one of the safest neighborhoods in Dar es Salaam. We felt right at home right away. The building has great amenities, and it's a great community for children. It's also close to schools, beaches, malls, hospitals, and all things you need for a comfortable long term stay. We stayed for several months and loved our stay. Any issue we encountered was resolved once we brought it up. Will be staying here again when in Dar es Salaam.

I had a great stay that was only intended for 2 days, however I needed up extending it 3 more days because how great it was. Breakfast as part of the package is the first for me, I loved it. You can’t beat the hospitality of the host, I can’t say enough enough about the caring, communication and suggestion of things around the area I long to be back again.

We brought a large group to stay at Prisca's place for two weeks. Prisca was very communicative and extremely accommodating. She purchased additional mattresses, sheets, and towels for our group. She purchased a water dispenser for us when we requested one. There were some problems in the house during our stay (which is common in Tanzania), but her local staff were quick to help us. The house is massive and can accommodate a lot of people and has A/Cs and water heaters throughout. The kitchen is big but not particularly well stocked; we needed to buy a bunch of our own utensils in order to properly cook for so many people. The location is pretty far north of Dar, but it was worth it for the great price and Prisca's great service.

A lovely, relaxing place & we greatly enjoyed our stay! The staff was very helpful and provided everything we needed! The pool and landscaping is beautiful! We would definitely recommend! When the taxi they ordered to take us to the airport wasn’t able to haul all our things, Judith took us to the airport with her own vehicle so we could catch our flight!

Great comfortable place to stay, the hosts and all the staff members were extremely helpful, breakfast was included, highly recommend 🙏🏽
