Amani Beach is on the gorgeous, yet undeveloped coast of the Indian Ocean south of Dar es Salaam. The beach is amazing and goes on and on - it's incredible to be on such an extensive, white beach with virtually no people. A great convenience is that you can pay with credit card upon your departure - many resorts in... More

Nice place to stay south of Dar. The rooms at Amani are individual cottages rather than rooms in a central building. Each cottage has a huge (really) main room, a large bathroom and a verandah. The rooms all face the sea and sit atop a low cliff so you look out at the sea when you wake up. There is... More

This lovely and peaceful lodge is the perfect place to relax and recharge. The rooms are huge, the views unparalleled and the food delicious and plentiful. I especially liked the poolside restaurant so that you could stay near the ocean all day. And don't miss a walk on the beach at low tide. I saw amazing water creatures that I... More

I have previously reviewed Amani Beach and comments in that review included the price of the food- and the lack of creativity. - WOW .. .what a difference. - We recently stayed (for the 3rd time) at Amani Beach Protea.

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
Amani means “peace” in Kiswahili, and that’s exactly what you’ll find at Protea Hotel Amani Beach. Just 33km south of the bustling city of Dar es Salaam, down a sandy road to the ocean, hides our small African paradise and a total escape from the outside world. Set amongst 80 acres of beautiful tropical gardens, each of our 10 luxury beach bungalows overlooks the turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean. They combine the opulence of Zanzibar sultans with African craftsmanship and charm. Around the bungalows the grounds are alive with wildlife and, on the unspoiled white sands of our secluded beach; turtles have chosen to make their home. We have two dining areas; one that serves breakfast and lunch, whilst our Main Restaurant provides a much more romantic and atmospheric setting for the evening meal. Our food draws its influences from the exotic flavours of East African cooking as well as from the simple fresh flavours of the Mediterranean. The open-sided makuti thatch beach bar provides the ideal outdoor seating area to enjoy the refreshing coastal breeze without the glare of the African sun. Whether you’re looking for total relaxation, a romantic holiday, adventure or simply to experience unspoilt nature, you’ll find it here and more. Welcome to an unforgettable experience, welcome to Amani Beach Hotel. ... more   less
