Dhow Inn Boutique Hotel

Well swept and well kept. Polite staff.

No TV in room.No assistance offered with baggage at check out

Great location, nice private beach, rooms are spacious and light, very comfortable bed and pillows, we had amazing sleep. Didn’t use any of the pools but they look nice. Hotel territory is big enough for evening walk during high tides. Also big thank you to the team for cake and special attention for our son birthday.

Water from the shower is coming to the room. It’s not a big problem but maybe something hotel could look into.

My family recently enjoyed a stay at Dhow Inn, and we couldn’t have had a nicer time. Everyone on staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating. The food was amazing, pools felt very private and well-maintained, beach location was idyllic and the service was perfect. Rooms were very spacious, clean, well appointed and with comfortable beds. The excursions we booked through the hotel were also great - we snorkeled with sea stars, visited monkeys in Jozani National Park, and they even helped arrange our safari in mainland Tanzania. I hope we can visit again soon!

Super friendly staff, great location by the beach! Our family loved the dinner options - you could enjoy the buffet or have ala carte at a table on the sand.

Food, sushi restaurant and options of pools

Access to beach and private beach area could have been bigger

Nice room near beach, ok lounge space and ok pool, cute garden

Food very poor choice at buffet maybe the worst I have seen like 5 choices and all pretty bad, if you order a la cart food is okay nothing wow but you pay more for that of course The hotel Beach is pretty bad also, sunbeds not comfortable and dirty

Situated in a great location, the hotel is priced very well, and had great amenities. The pool access and placement of rooms is ideal.

Ala carte food was amazing. Hotel is near the beach and has all facilities you need. Nice and huge rooms, friendly staff, a lot of cats.

You need to call reception for every filling up of small glass bottle of water because there is not allowed to bring your own water, food or drinks. After 10 pm you need also to pay for bottle of water (5000ths for 2 bottles) what we see very uncommon. Pools were not clean, our swimsuits colored yellow.

Very relaxed & calm environment. The hotel is very clean & well maintained overall. We could see that much effort has been put into establishing a high level of customer care & and professionalism, but still room to grow. Friendliness & smiles...10/10.

Ground level rooms lack natural light & privacy curtains for daytime living. Following an upgrade, we can highly recommend the upper level rooms with terrace splash pool. This room made our experience all worthwhile. Although senior management appears to be driving a higher service delivery, we never saw them. There was zero customer interaction from management. All credit to the staff who did represent.

Food was excellent, beachfront is is beautiful.

extra luggage stand or table in twin room

One of the most beautiful hotel I have stayed in such a good location, 4 swimming pools, amazing staff, spa, food and drinks

Everything was perfect - drinks were a little slow

Well appointed and the staff were lovely.

Buffet was limited and the same menu provided for a la carte for all days we were there. The a la carte was slow in service and 2 nights we had no availability for buffet - due to low occupancy, but still had to make a reservation for dinner - we found this weird.Not a fault of the property but we didn’t have the best experience in our Stone Town and Spice Farm tour - for the money - as our guide didn’t know anything about StoneTown.

We had a wonderful stay in a great atmosphere especially at night, the staff was very helpful at all times and very nice breakfast. The rooms are spacious, cosy and very good beds.

Everything was perfect and beyond. It was our honeymoon, couldn’t have chosen a better hotel. The staff is so so friendly, they do everything they can for you to enjoy your stay. The hotel is extremely clean, they literally clean like 3 times a day. Complimentary water and coffee in the room which we loved. Great location. The pools are lovely and also very well maintained. The beach is breathtaking. The nearby town is such a vibrant place full of culture. We even visited the local school just about 100m from the hotel. I wish we could go back really!

None <3

Best hotel in Paje. Personnel working here are sooo friendly. They will arrange for everything. Beds are nice (unlike many other hotels in Paje) . Breakfast and diner is super (unlike many other hotels in Paje)

Swimming pools!

The private beach is not clear to find. We had to ask someone. The walk from the hotel to the private beach is dirty.

Food is good but not exceptional. Staff are friendly and helpful.

Beach frontage could be better utilised.

The taxi drivers, nice cool people

Not worth the money cause the resort/hotell doesnt have much to offer for the value. The staff was friendly but there was so many miscommunication and the all inclusive was not clear about what was included. You couldnt even use the beach cause the water was so far away during low tide. When it was high tide, we were afraid we were gonna hit the rock cliff. Dont accept free evening a la carte. It took us over an hour for just the appetizer. Then they changed a la carte for kids, they didnt get to choose from the same menu as us adults even tho we paid same price for our kids stay, as adults. Felt like we were robbed.Even the pool are much smaller than what it was shown on the picture. Always bugs in the water.

Nice location, good food especially in the morning and the staff was very nice. The room was comfortable and big.Something extra: we received one dinner at the a la carte restaurant which was lovely.

The location is ok but it gets very warm at the pool because it's situated between buildings.This place is more for families and people of certain age and the price is a bit high.

the location

no ocean views, old hotel repainted to look new but very old. Food is very average. definitely nit worth the money spent. it says also on booking.com that it is beech front, but in reality it is NOT on the beach, it is close to the beach. rooms overlooking the pools
