The staff was very nice, and offering good service. The rooms were quite clean, but the kitchen was without any equipment. The food at the restaurant was fine, except one of the dishes we ordered (grilled chicken with grilled veggies) was dry and barely lukewarm. The beach was clean at the start of the day but got filled with garbage from the ocean as the day went by. Breakfast was very good! The hotel has very nice and calming surroundings

White Sands Hotel is a fairly large and truly beautiful resort. Not for a single second did I regret choosing this property for my stay in Dar es Salaam. The entire complex is very clean and regularly well maintained, and the same can be said about the room. I appreciated having a refrigerator in the room; however, the overall equipment was rather basic — for example, there was no iron or hairdryer. That said, the balcony and the stunning sea view more than compensated for these minor shortcomings. Breakfast was excellent every morning, offering a wide selection of local, English, and continental options. I especially enjoyed the fresh fruit and freshly squeezed juices. The staff were very kind, friendly, and helpful throughout my stay. A small downside is the presence of crows, which won’t hesitate to snatch a bite from your breakfast or lunch if you leave your table unattended outdoors. Weekends can also be somewhat noisy due to social events such as weddings held at the resort, which might be slightly disturbing for some guests. That said, I would be very happy to return to this resort on my next visit to Tanzania.

It’s not a place you can come and leave and go and stay another year without planning to return. Try and prove me right.
