Welcome to El's Homes! We've blended Tanzanian and Rwandan touches to create a comfy retreat perfect for work or relaxation: cozy bedroom, fully equipped kitchen, fast Wi-Fi, AC in both rooms, and a workspace. The quiet area puts you close to beaches, shopping, and essentials. Enjoy the comfy sofa or the outdoor space to unwind. I'll stock breakfast basics (tea bags or leaves, coffee, and sugar) during your stay!
The space
You'll have the entire Apartment 5 to yourself in a secure, gated compound with ample parking. Step into a cozy living room with a large sofa, coffee table, and big-screen TV—perfect for unwinding with one of the books I've left or trying your hand at bao, a traditional board game. The open kitchen is well-equipped with counter seating for two.
The spacious bedroom features a comfortable bed, a wardrobe, a workspace with a mirror, and an ottoman. A full bathroom sits between the bedroom and the living area for privacy. You'll find an ironing board, laundry basket, and storage for essentials throughout. Every room has a trash can. A dedicated washing machine area is outside your apartment, in the right section of the apartment block, where the clotheslines are.
The rooms are bright and airy. I'll have the apartment professionally cleaned once a week during your stay.
Guest access
You'll have full access to the entire Apartment 5, including your private outdoor verandah and shared areas such as the parking space. Your dedicated washing machine is located outside your apartment, along with clotheslines in the right section of the building. Large trash bins are on the far left side of the compound.
Other things to note
The apartment is nestled in a peaceful neighborhood, just 10 minutes from the beach by car. It's ideal whether you're here to unwind or for business. So that you know, we're unable to accommodate pets.

Where you’ll be
Dar es Salaam, Dar es Salam, Tanzania
Mbezi Beach is a peaceful coastal haven about 25 minutes north of Dar es Salaam's city center, offering the perfect blend of tranquility and convenience. The neighborhood is home to beautiful white-sand beaches along the Indian Ocean, with easy access to pristine Mbudya Island (a 20-minute boat ride) for swimming and snorkeling.
You'll find excellent amenities right in the area. Home Market Supermarket, just 5 minutes away, offers ATMs, Laundry services, and a Pharmacy. Classic Mall (just 10 minutes away) has Mkwabi supermarket, CRDB and NMB banks, and Havanna restaurant. The newer Jangwani Shopping Centre offers additional shopping options. Mawella Liquor Store offers a large selection of liquor. For dining and entertainment, the beachfront stretch features popular hotels and restaurants, including Chef Kile's Restaurant, Target Complex, White Sands Resort, Giraffe Beach Hotel, Ramada Resort, Mediterraneo Hotel & Restaurant (known for excellent Italian cuisine), Landmark Mbezi Beach Resort, and Jangwani Sea Breeze Resort—all offering beachfront dining, bars, and ocean views.
The area is well-connected via Africana Road and Bagamoyo Road, making it easy to reach the city while maintaining a serene, residential atmosphere. Nearby attractions include Kunduchi Water Park (10 minutes), Village Museum (showcasing Tanzanian culture), and Mwenge Woodcarvers Market for authentic crafts.
Mbezi Beach is popular with both business travelers (for its quiet environment and accessibility) and leisure guests seeking a beach escape. With secure gated compounds, lush tropical surroundings, and fresh seafood restaurants, it's the ideal base for experiencing coastal Dar es Salaam.
