    Clean and idyllic, dreamy place for couples. Good service at the restaurant, they even guard your belongings so you can go for a swim. For lunch we had changu fish with rice and vegetables, also squid tentacles with french fries (locally called chips). Many drinks to choose, such as local beers and fruit juice. On 24.12. you could even catch the last room available for 85000 tzs (34€) for two. We arrived there with Uber from the Ferry for 7000 tzs (2,80€), for even cheaper transport choose the Bajaj for 4000 tzs (1,60€)

    Hey guys. I'm back with another rating. This beach is very beautiful, the ocean is very calm and very warm water. Today I went for a run and after a few miles you get to see this very beautiful tree inside the water. I recorded a video so you get to see the beauty of this beach. There are few people who trying to sell you things and they will try to double the prices because your a tourist but if you really like what they selling just don't show your super interest. Make a deal that you like and if they don't accept just walk away and they will call you back and say ok to your deal. Remember to stay safe and really smile because it is worth it. Once again enjoy life my brother and sister much love. Youtube channel : BeBe Panda

    We really needed a break after 850km on the road mbeya to dar and it was the perfect place for that. Despite the rain, we have had a great time here in the campsite near the beach. Very friendly staff also that make our stay just perfect. Thanks to the entire team

    We landed in Dar es Salaam and got a taxi through the mad streets of the city, down what seemed like ally ways and into quietness and the sound of the sea waves. A lovely lady checked us in and had our bags brought to our chalet. The chalet is quite "rustic". Toilet, shower and some storage downstairs and the bedroom and balcony Upstairs. I am lying in a hammock on the balcony right now watching a little monkey eating a bread fruit (I think) that it picked from the tree while writing this. The bed is huge with a huge mosquito net. The food menu is equally large with a lot of vegetarian options. Is is now August and there were a handful of people on the beach, and only three of us swimming in the warm Indian ocean this morning. We came here for one night at the beginning and were supposed to go to Zanzibar for the end of our trip but we cancaled Zanzibar and came back to Kipepeo because it was so nice. We had only just found out that it has a 1 star rating, if was saw that at the beginning we probably would not have come here, it is a lovely place. Our chalet might not be suitable for small children because of the balcony but they may have other single story ones. The free Internet comes and goes a bit but was good enough for us to keep in contact. If we ever stay in Dar es Salaam again it will probably be here.

    Perfect for spending a day at the beach. Despite closeness to Dar, the place is quiet and let you disconnect from the city stress. The food and drinks are good and their staff excellent, very attentive, helpful, and polite

    Nice place and reasonbly good food. There's a need to reduce waste, plastics and educate customers not to not throw garbage around. It also needed to keep the beach cleaned as the sea brings lots of waste.

  • 3/5 hassan a. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice place for the holidays, I gave three stars because the manager and the owner have been so mean towards a survivor seller in front of the hotel. The guy depends on tourists to sell his art and he is always nice to people. Since the manager doesn't want him there, he feeds tourists with false information that he is a thieve and they should never go near him. I have stayed and done my research on the accusations for more than 6months, it's all false and part of their plan to remove the guy from the public space in front of the hotel. I hate capitalism

    One of the pathetic place with immature manager and staff ... Heard its a nice place so visited but they neither concentrate on beach cleaning and not even good at behaving well with clients especially manager ...who asked us not to feed my 8 month child outside food he was expecting to order pizza for my kid who is hardly having 4 teeth and we argued and he loose his control...

    Best beach experience in Dar if you are on a budget. Ferry charges 200 TZS, TukTuk 5000, and you are at a pristine sand beach. Never crowded, white sand gently sloping into the warm and reasonably clean water (you can see your feet), few algae, almost no stones, and of course palm trees and the usual beach services - fresh coconuts for 2000 TZS, floating tires available for 2000 TZS. Food decent (not great) and reasonably priced. No entrance fee and huts with beach chairs available at no cost. Kids loved it too. Second time there, no regrets

    There was a bar next to my room playing loud music. The staff didn't care, refused to let me use another room, and after waiting until the early hours I ended up giving up and sleeping on the beach (which they say is not safe to walk along even in the day...). No apology or attempt to remedy. Also my birkenstocks were taken from my locked room. Presumably by a staff member.

    This was my second time staying here, first time with my family and a group of 10. And the second time with Bae..hence why I went back for the second time cause the first time was amazing . We stayed in the Charlet which you have to walk to through a mini forest passing monkeys each Charlet has a balcony that looks out to the beach or the wild, it’s a beautiful and peaceful experience. There was loud music coming from a bar miles away that played music all day and when we came back in the evening the music was still on and went on until 6-7am but I actually enjoyed it cause the DJ was good to be fair and music was poppin plus I like noise while asleep so that’s me I guess. The Charlets are really romantic actually. For breakfast, you get a slip and you tick what you want, it’s very very basic but it was delicious and really filled us up, I loved the coffee section . Staff are super sweet and friendly and it was nice they recognised me the second time so I felt special. The beach is quiet but some of my white friends did get hassled a bit on the beach ( pictures, people selling stuff, people staring right at them) so we had to go back to the hotel area. We didn’t eat at the hotel cause we loved going out to the town and eating local food and mingling with the locals. Friendly people and good buzz outside. I will always come back for a little getaway

    One of the best place i have visited so far not that modern and not old but built with genuine look. It is a nice place to escape city noise. It has a nice view and quite and the beach is spectacular. The entrance is affordable with coupon of drinks. The fun thing i liked about this place is that only drinks can be ordered and served by waiters but the food you have to get it yourelf, make the order at the reception and bring your receipt at the kitchen then when the food is ready you should pick it up by yourself. It is very unique and i loved it 😍

    We camped along the beach edge. I slept to the sound of splashing waves and woke to a morning swim just steps from my tent. How do you argue with that? 😆 Bathroom was clean. No hot water but ground water temperature was acceptable. Water pressure was great. The bar and outdoor lounge area was nice and my one drink was quite strong for the price.

    Kipepeo is the best. Love their rooms, service, and food. Our go-to for beach time in Dar. Currently, if you must have AC in your room, it is not available but they are adding rooms with AC soon, so call and check. During the cooler months of the year late May- early Sept. most do not need AC. They are hands down the best and once AC comes, no need to look anywhere else. Breakfast is the best on the beach

  • 2/5 Stefan H. 2 months ago on Google • 23 reviews New
    Lots and lots of seaweed at the beach and plastic trash inside and outside of the water. Swimming is simply disgusting. Might be the current at this time of the year, but management must react and get the beach cleaned. They depend on a good and safe swimming experience. Huts are okayish, but expensive for what you get.

    Loved this place for the last 2 days of my trip. The little bungalows in the back were amazing and comfortable. The staff was super nice. They have a restaurant too and its right on the beach. Worth the $ for sure.

    We had the dhow snorkel trip. Great time and enjoyed an evening meal. Update We came and enjoyed the beach. Lunch was potato wedges, tropical fruit curry, vegetable burger and spring rolls. Service was much faster than expected. We have again enjoyed another visit with friends and family here.

    Amazing place. Beautiful beach, very attentive staff and if you can, stay in a lodge as the set up is incredible. The snorkeling trip was also well worth it, got to see several lion fish and even a sea snake.

  • 4/5 laura l. 10 months ago on Google
    Simple beach huts directly on the beach. Perfect if you like it simple and want to stay right on the beach for a good value. The room had a bed with mosquito net, fan and table. The room was clean in the beginning but due to the natural ceiling, there was lots of „nature“ falling on the bed. The staff is friendly. It took 2 days for me to get a towel and cushions for the beach chairs would great. Either I got lucky or they really decreased the volume of the Musik in the neighboring place. The food is very good, let’s say mid-range to expensive. But a bottle of water for 2500 is way overpriced. Unfortunately the WiFi did not work at all and in the common area, you would have to pay extra.

    We booked a dhow sailing tour with snorkling on the phone with them. We repeatedly told them we would come specifically for the sailing because that is what we love to do. When we got there from Dar Es Salam (which took us more then 1 hour by taxi and cost us a lot) they told us they did not have a sailing boat anymore for some time, so there was nothing left to do then return home with another expensive taxi ride. Worst service I've ever gotten and we felt lied to and disrespected.

  • 5/5 Matthias S. 11 months ago on Google
    Absolutely beautiful place! Cheap accommodation, great food and super sweet and kind staff! Highly recommended! We also did the Kayak tour for 15$. It was a really great time, beautiful scenery and a good guide. The perfect place to relax and enjoy the beach. Note: I did have some itching on my feet which might have been from the sand. Nothing to worry about, but you might wanna bring some Antihistamine creme with you :)

  • 5/5 Burke F. 2 years ago on Google
    It is a great safe place to camp. Beach fab for my kids who love to catch the waves on their boggie boards. Price is reasonable but would be good to have a family price. Adults cost 10usd and kids 8usd so it adds up. Food in the restaurant is good. Service is very friendly. We will be back.

    My experience in Kipepeo was utterly astonishing, from the first day, the bathrooms were very clean, the bungalows had amazing netting around the bed, the balcony was very comfortable. A family of Blue monkeys are in the property but never bother you, and a whole mob of mongooses as well. Keep in mind it was not a 5 star resort. But for the price it was paradise. Service a bit slow at times. But I would highly recommend it.

    (Translated by Google) very nice houses with a beautiful view of the sea. very pleasant are the extremely wide beds and in general it is a very complete house. It is a pity that it was not really safe to walk around after nightfall, if that problem can be solved, it is the ideal place. (Original) zeer toffe huisjes met prachtig zicht op de zee. heel aangenaam zijn de uiterst brede bedden en het is in het algemeen een zeer compleet huisje.

And at high tide their was big waves. The beach vendors did to hassle us to much. And the atmosphere was overall family friendly.
