3.7/5 Good! (9 reviews)
Stayed in Ngawala over New Year for 4 nights. Although I was advised that the hotel was build over year and a half ago it still was missing a lot of basic stuff. The Executive Suite that I've rented was a top class with really wonderful finishes and commodities etc. unfortunately had to go to reception and ask for basic stuff to be brought to my room. The following items were missing: Kettle, toilet brush, hangers, batteries in the safe, rubbish bin. One thing really annoyed me was that after requesting batteries for the safe I was advised that I will get them the next day only. After leaving all the values and quite large sum of cash inside the safe unlocked went into hotel restaurant to have a diner with my coleague. This is when the things really turned from bad to worse. After ordering spaghetti Carbonara I ended-up waiting for over half on hour and only then the waiter turned-up and advised that they had no pasta. To top it-up my colleagues chicken was served with cold chips. We ended up paying for our beer and leaving the place with empty stomachs. After that we managed to get some pizza and upon returning to my suite I've noticed that someone was in my room while I was having a dinner as the curtains were closed. When querying the following day in reception I was advised that mosquito spraying staff has entered my room last evening. Ended-up giving a lecture to receptionist about who can enter my room without my permission. Overall really disappointed with service

Property is some what quieter than the other beaches around the coast. Very limited restaurants options around the area. Food at the buffet was very basic and underspiced on many of the days. Nevertheless, we liked the location and how quiet the beach was. Was amazing taking walks without feeling surrounded by many people. Staff were great, friendly all the time and very helpful.

Tanzania Vacation

Tour the plains of the Serengeti, discover the magical island of Zanzibar, climb the iconic Mount Kilimanjaro and marvel at Ngurdoto Crater. If you’re chasing an unforgettable adventure, there’s no time like the present to plan a trip to Tanzania.

Expedia has 2138 hotels starting at $95 a night in Tanzania. Want to save some of your getaway dollars to spend on unique African souvenirs? Then create your own Tanzania Vacation Package. Bundle your hotel, flights and extras like rental cars and experiences and you’ll be browsing Arusha’s Maasai Market in no time. If you like the idea of taking a boat safari past crocodiles in Selous Game Reserve or hiking up Mount Kilimanjaro, add some tours to your package as well.

Your Tanzania Vacation Itinerary

  • Day 1-2: Begin your African adventure in the bustling metropolis of Dar es Salaam, just north of Julius Nyerere International Airport. Experience traditional life at the open-air Village Museum, buy a souvenir at the Slipway and enjoy an authentic Dar es Salaam experience at the Kivukoni Fish Market.

  • Day 5-7: Arusha is around a two-hour bus ride west of Moshi. Considered Tanzania’s gateway to the northern safari circuit, it’s the perfect place to stay if you’re eager to tour Serengeti National Park or take a day trip to Tarangire National Park.
