Mediterraneo is an above-average value in Dar es Salaam, where good rooms don't come cheap. It's located in Kawe Beach about 30 kilometers out of town. The restaurant, the view of the water and the rooms are all truly lovely. The hot water (and water pressure) in our garden room was among the best we had during our three-week stay... more

We spent two days and two nights there to unwind before we went on a very tiring mission trip in Tanzania, this place is FANTASTIC!!!! the food is GREAT and you just can not beat the beautiful rooms, beach etc... we then stayed there again on our last evening in Tanzania before we got on a plane to return to... more

This is a beatiful and very cozy Hotel. We stayed there for 2 nights in January and compared to the hotels we stayed at on Zanzibar, this one offered much more of everything. The restaurant at the hotel was the best food we got on our vacation and we went to many different places. The staff is warm and friendly... more

Hello travellers, I have staied at Mediterraneo with my wife in 2004, and we recently returned in May 2009. It is amazing to see how much this place has developed in few years.

The traffic jams are almost constant in Dar, and it takes a lot of time to get around. In the mornings, we used... more

Walk in. I met Samantar the owner who is fluent in English Italian, Swahili and Somali. I used the restaurant and took part of the party that takes place once a month. It was the best experience ever. Anisa Falco and Mahad Malabow. more

We stayed in 4 different hotels whilst we were in Tanzania and this was definitely the best, particularly given the price and what you get for your money (the rooms are reasonably spacious and they have air-con and a TV). This hotel is not situated in the centre of Dar as it is about half an hour (by taxi) north... more

I feel very lucky and privileged to have enjoyed a fantastic week in Tanzania. My hotel, the Mediterraneo was everything I could have asked for and despite being a little way out of the city centre allowed access to most places within 30 mins. The hotel staff were very helpful and obliging.The food was excellent and the views superb. more
