Waterfront vacation rentals in Tanzania

We have stayed in a number of places in Dar es Salaam, but this one has been the best so far: great location directly on the beach, lots of excellent restaurants in the vicinity, great supermarket a short Poa-ride away, a safe, quiet house in a compound and Junaid is extremely responsive and helpful with any queries that may come up. Definitely a place to come back to in the future.

the apartment was clean with beautiful surroundings. Odette is super friendly and responded quick to any of my questions. it was worth the price, although we didn't have free wifi as the it shows that here, however, I would say that this apartment is even more beautiful than what is showing in the pictures here, the pictures doesn't do it justice. I stayed for 10 days and it felt like home. would definitely book the place again whenever I'm visiting Fumba again.

Kate’s apartment is something special. The building is full of history, her space is so beautifully curated and the views of the city are epic. Kate is warm and communicative and more than accommodating. My stay offered a beautiful entry into Dar.

Beautiful place, I enjoyed staying here during my vacation with family. My boys enjoyed the ocean breeze from their bedroom window, the swimming pool and the quick access to the beach. Lars was always a text away to jump in when we needed instructions. Thank you! We will recommend to friends.

Brenda and Ire's place is a true home, not an apartment that is only rented out. Lots of quirky decor, very colourful, we loved it (family with two teenage daughters). The girls could just walk around by themselves in town, it is all very friendly. Comfy beds and shower. The rooms were a bit hot in January, but manageable with the extra fans provided. Ire, Omar and Salum were very helpful and kind. Brenda wasn't around, but provided timely and extensive communication ahead of our stay. We have been coming to Stone town since 1994; and even with the mass tourism now firmly established on Unguja, Stone town somehow manages to keep its own spirit and this place reflects that spirit. Great stay, we were very happy to come here.

Our 5 day stay at Zuhura’s Airbnb was outstanding! From the start, Zuhura was incredibly kind, friendly, and always quick to respond to any questions. The place itself was immaculate and wonderful. It’s central location was perfect, putting us within easy walking distance of many beautiful spots, malls and restaurants making the area convenient and enjoyable. I highly recommend Zuhura’s Airbnb for anyone looking for a clean, comfortable and well located place to stay. Thank you Zuhura, for a memorable trip

Nice place with a lot of space and everything you need. Communication and check-in were excellent.

Exceptional stay! The house is tastefully decorated and perfectly located steps from the beach. Quiet, clean, comfortable, with everything you need to feel at home. The host was available, warm and very professional. A real slice of heaven in Zanzibar. I will come back without hesitation!

what a lovely place with lovely hosts and caretakers would definitely recommend Villa heidi to anyone and will definitely be returning

2 weeks in this house was really peaceful and nice. The general manager Mudy and also Anna were very proactive. The house is situated in a very quiet environment and we could walk 15 minutes to Kendwa beach. Otherwise we took moto taxis. I really recommand this place

Ernst is a very good gatsgeber . He responds immediately and always helps. Everything is very well organized. He has arranged the help on site very well. There is always a contact person there. Maybe think about an emergency power unit......The house is located directly on the beach , just a few steps to the sea. Absolutely quiet location. Thank you very much for the nice time there.

Come to Embedodo Beachhouse and you will feel like you are in paradise. We had spent 3 great days right by the beach. The amenities were ok. Sometimes the power went out, but you have to expect it everywhere.... There was nothing wrong with it either. You should apply mosquito repellent in the evening if you want to sit on the porch From there we did not want to go into the house in the evening because it was very pleasant from the temperatures and the sea noise gave you an extra kick. Anytime again!!

We stayed for a few days. Excellent place directly on the beach. Really enjoyed our stay. Hope to be back soon.

Lovely villa, very private and super views of the water. The place is literally on the beach. Full access to the huge resort pool next door but we loved the private pool more. Great chill out for a few days in Zanzibar.

A perfect stay at Weyni's house in Jambiani. From a family of 7, we enjoyed being in the heart of the village to soak up local life but also to be in a real proximity to the beach. The location is perfect. Weyni is a host who accompanied me and communicated from the time of booking until the end of the stay. She is very responsive and has always responded with kindness to our requests. I sincerely thank Weyni and hope to return to her house for an upcoming stay in Zanzibar so much I enjoyed this island and the people who make it up. I would highly recommend.

Beautiful place .. Great host.

Wow! This is what this totally hidden gem of a place! We absolutely enjoyed our stay at this wonderful home literally localated on the beach. Super friendly staff that will always try and accommodate your requests. Winny and Joseph and the masai security took great care of us. The private gardens are enormous with plenty of seating areas to enjoy the sea breeze. Our host Sabrina was such a kind and thoughtful host, she even took time out to come visit us. She recommended great places to order food from and even arranged a local massage therapist to come visit. We would 100% recommend this beautiful hidden home to anyone wanting the luxury of a beach front getaway.

We highly recommand Amani Home. The place is amazing, beautiful view of the beach from the balcony. Thanks.

The place matches the description, lovely being close to the ocean. Very responsive and accommodating host.

The staff was the best part of the stay. They were amazing, especially Dan. The property is next to the beach and in the middle of a village. Seeing the African culture and way of living mixed with paradisiac views…was riveting. Several descent restaurants in the area as well. Will definitely book again.

Amazing place and very helpful Host and always ready to asist

The villa was absolutely beautiful. It looks much bigger in real life than in the pictures. It’s right next to the beach, making it easy to go for long walks along the shore. There are also many local restaurants nearby. I want to thank Grace ❤️ and the security gentleman for their help and kindness—they truly made my stay special!
