Amani Beach Resort

Want to go to a place that when you go home you can't do anything but brag to your friends? A place you never want to leave with views that leave your eyes fixated?

Then this is the perfect place for you. Amani will make you feel as if you're a new person
All your problems will cease to exist.

Highly recommend

The rooms are on the beach or just a min walk through the garden. The sunrise and sunsets are brilliant. It is a quiet place to relax and rejuvenate after the long safari days. The service is good. You can ask for authentic local food and it is superb. We only ate vegetarian food there as we were taking a break of the heavy foods from the earlier part of our trip. The red beans curry, potato curry in coconut milk was too good. Also recommend the vegetable spiced rice. I do not know the local names of these dishes but we did not need to.

There are not too many people who know of this gem so we have the place to ourselves. I am hoping more folks visit as they could use some funds for upgrades.

This place is an absolutely wonderful resort. The rooms are something that some may like and dislike though. Each booking gives you a bungalow with a king sized bed and two singles. So adults may need 2 bungalows if it's a group trip. But the people there are so kind and always help with anything, of course there are language barriers but they always try their best. The location is definitely arguable though, it's a beautiful beach resort but it is very remote so if you're looking for something close to Dar-es-saleem this won't work for you. In terms of isolation it's amazing and servers come around in the afternoon to ask you what you want for dinner and breakfast also gives you a choice of how you'd like your eggs. Personally I loved it, clean beach, I could read my books while looking at the ocean, and no worries about annoying neighbors.

This hotel is beautifully situated on the Amani Beach south of Dar Es Salaam. The hotel grounds access a good section of this beach and provides all guests gorgeous sand and coral tide pools at low tide. The swimming pool is located at the edge of the beach close to hotel units. Between the beach, the swimming pool and the tide pools, there are many things to entertain families all day.
The expansive buffet breakfast is included with the unit rental. Lunch and dinner are able to be ordered and served in the main eating area.
I highly recommend this hotel, the management, and all the servers.

Nice getaway and very relaxing. The manager Ashray is great and sees to it that all of your needs are met. We love the large rooms and huge patio that wraps around each room.

My only complaint is that there is no wi-fi although I suppose that it would be difficult to run the necessary cables from the main road to the hotel. Not a big deal, just make sure that you too off your phones 4g data plan.

Very relaxed. Beautiful location with only 10 bungalows and very quiet beach - no venders. Staff couldn't do more for you.

The perfect taste of paradise you are looking for to take a break out of the city.

Where to start?
The location makes it unique. The roads are not the best but everybody needs to deserve reaching paradise, and according to me it add charm to it.

The staff that will welcome and serve you during your stay is doing a great job. Always smiling and happy to help you. The manager is a real one -> he will take time to see and talk with every guest to make sure everything is okay and is always available If needed.

The rooms that could actually be considered as apartments thanks to the superficy, all the accommodations available and the cosy decoration are charming.
Furthermore, the space between each of them has been perfectly thought for you to feel alone.

During the day the swimming pool and the beach are the best place to relaxe, and at night, the silence around, the sound of the waves and the sky full of stars is exactly what I am looking for to end the day.

Finally, the food is amazing from royal breakfast to dinner you have a range of possibilities that will accommodate anybody in the best way.
Special congratulations for the sauces, garlicy, chilly, creamy, pepery... all delicious:-)

In few words, thanks to the whole team for making us spend an amazing weekend.
We will come back for sure and recommend that place to people around us!

we had a wonderful time and more than we expected or dreamt of..the service from the employees and the Manager Mr.Ashray...is more than what i can explain.
All in all..i think Amani will be our second home.
The food...room..services...cleaness .environment...was wooow. The employees are friendly and proffesionally.
The hotel is more than what we see in the website. It is safe with nice view and it is real "to peace of mind location". It worth more than what we paid.

A beach wedding event happened between Sophie and Jarrtan. Against all forecasts, the day was blessed with lots of rain. Not with standing, the spirit of wedding party, hotel staff, officiant and all others involved was not dampened and we ened having one very memorable day. We thanks all for making it a day to remember. Posting pictures after this long message

Fantastic place. Rooms are well maintained and spacious. Staff and service is impeccable. Very clean overall and simply amazing views. Definitely coming back.

There are few places in world that are as peaceful as the PHDeSAB. There are 10 bungalows that are separate enough to provide space from your neighbors.
The facility includes two locations to eat (one for breakfast and dinner, the other for lunch by the beach. There is also a pool, lounge chairs, a tennis court, and a private beach. Emphasis on PRIVATE. You really feel as if you have a private resort to yourself. The water is a crystal clear blue.
The staff is attentive and the food is excellent quality.
WiFi is not available in the room, only in the location where food is being served.
The rooms have a strong echo.
To get to the location you must travel along an unpaved road that is best suited for a SUV or other off road vehicle.
Bring bug spray because mosquitoes attack at night.
There is no local grocery store nor market. You cannot walk off the property and get anything. This location requires transportation to get to and from. Uber is not reliable so plan on arranging transportation through the hotel.
It is $80 round trip to the Zanzibar ferry and $55 one way to/from the airport. BRING dollars. The Tanzania shilling bills are in thousand denominations (1,000. 5,000. 10,000.). I have not seen higher than 10,000 Tshilling note. At this time 400,000 Tshillings equals almost $188 dollars (that is a lot of cash to walk around with and many businesses prefer cash dollars).

Best view, top service, very good security and large rooms. If you love sea food than you will be in for a surprise. The sea food is caught and served fresh on daily bases.

Excellent place. Just the right place to take it easy. Never over crowded, very peaceful and calm.

Here I am talking about the one that is located at Kigamboni, it's a bit far from the ferry but you will enjoy it while you reach there, clean beach and fresh wind oooooh it's so cool.

The swahili name is self explanatory "amani" meaning peace. We love the peaceful vibe. A very good getaway! Breathtaking views!So, if you love the beach and don't mind spending a little more then go for it! It's PEACEFUL I pray it remains Peaceful.
Ps: worth the looong drive! For me, there's no better peaceful hidden paradise that I have seen so far in my life than Amani Beach!

A place to be for all sea lovers the beach is so nice from the hotel we can have all kinder amazing views though out the area cam and caring staff so friendly the food is so nice fresh sea food every day na at Normal price also not like many places in Kigamboni mobile network here ain’t a problem at all.
