I have just returned from a 5night stay at Ras Kutani. We travelled in a family group of 7 and enjoyed our stay at Ras Kutani very much. We loved our banda's which were situated next to the lovely lagoon and were facing sea as well. It is a lovely and quiet place. You don't need any shoes to wear... more

Stayed at Ras Kutani for 6 nights after a week on safari. The drive from Dar airport took less than 2 hours, including a fascinating short ferry trip. We were greeted with great warmth and hospitality by the charming Emil, which set the tone for the friendliness we encountered from all the staff during our stay. The bandas are perfect... more

The short hop by plane from Dar is very quick and links very well with long haul flights to Europe. The rooms are very large and serviced to a high standard.

They set up a little beach hide out with a flag for all the couples on the beach to lounge in. In the morning you get waken up with amazing coffee and fresh cookies. The Houses are... more

There is simply nothing bad to say about Ras Kutani. From the moment of our arrival, nothing was too much trouble for the wonderfully friendly and accommodating staff. The rooms are stunning - beautifully designed, using fantastic materials throughout, and furnished with real elegance. I'd recommend asking for one of the lagoon and sea view rooms (rooms 5 to 9)... more

After reading all the reviews, I was keen to stay at Ras Kutani to see what kind of place elicits five stars consistently.
