House vacation rentals in Ilala

Our stay was delightful. The apartment is in a good location, has a secure environment, and has impressive architecture. It was well-maintained, elegantly furnished, and equipped with top-notch amenities. We found a pleasant, friendly and attentive staff. Host Alex provided exceptional support, making the experience feel like home. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there and had fun learning some Swahili! 😊

Zanna’s was an absolutely amazing place. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. It was better than the pictures. All amenities were there and well maintained. The house truly feels like home. Zanna is super responsive and helpful. We absolutely loved dealing with her and we certainly would go back if we are back in Dar. 10/10 would recommend. Special mention - Dennis who was our chef for the period we stayed at Zanna’s. His food was fantastic and absolutely delicious. Plus we loved interacting with him and getting recommendations of where to go from him.

Great place to stay while vacationing in Dar es Salaam. Easy check in and Care taker Malaki was always available for any question. Definitely I am recommending this place.

We had a wonderful stay and had lots of fun with a group of friends. The host was incredibly friendly, always available, and very supportive whenever we needed anything. The caretaker was also attentive, even late at night when we required assistance. The residence was clean and private. Although we visited during the rainy season and didn’t use the pool much, it was well-maintained—cleaned and treated appropriately before check-in and after check-out. The location is easily accessible from the main highway. I can't wait to come back to Dar es Salaam—this will definitely be my go-to place again. There's ample parking space, including covered spots, and the security is excellent.

We loved staying at Gimstone's place. It's located in one of the safest neighborhoods in Dar es Salaam. We felt right at home right away. The building has great amenities, and it's a great community for children. It's also close to schools, beaches, malls, hospitals, and all things you need for a comfortable long term stay. We stayed for several months and loved our stay. Any issue we encountered was resolved once we brought it up. Will be staying here again when in Dar es Salaam.

Very nice and peaceful stay with favourable pricing.

My sons and I had a wonderful stay! The home was clean, comfortable, and had everything I needed to cook while we were there. Deborah was not in town, but her wonderful grandmother -who is also the cohost -was responsive and kind. The home was in a quiet neighborhood. We used bajajis for our mode of transportation while were there and were able to reach major shops within 10-20 minutes. One thing to note is that the home is part of a shared compound. It didn’t impact my stay too much, but for someone who is looking for a completely private stay this should be noted. Overall, we had a great experience and I’d definitely stay again! Wonderful experience in a beautifully well kept compound.

We had an amazing stay at place! The apartment was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Joyce was incredibly welcoming and responsive, making sure we had all the information we needed. Highly recommend this spot for anyone visiting the area!”

A lovely, relaxing place & we greatly enjoyed our stay! The staff was very helpful and provided everything we needed! The pool and landscaping is beautiful! We would definitely recommend! When the taxi they ordered to take us to the airport wasn’t able to haul all our things, Judith took us to the airport with her own vehicle so we could catch our flight!
