A beachfront landing on the south coast of Dar es Salaam.The Beach at Kipepeo
Nine kilometres from the city centre — and yet the pace here is entirely its own. The pressures and rhythms of daily life are gently replaced by the simple pleasures of space, nature and hospitality by the sea. The beach is wide and white. The Indian Ocean is warm. The seafloor is sandy. You can walk straight in. A swim is always within reach.
The simple pleasure of warm service by the sea Kipepeo restaurant & bar
Good food tastes best eaten close to where it comes from. The Kipepeo restaurant and bar sit at the edge of the sand, a few steps from the sea — open to the ocean breeze, seats well shaded, with the Indian Ocean horizon laid out in front of you. Fresh seafood caught fresh on this coastline. Grilled fish, prawns, calamari. Coconut curries, pilau, East African cooking done with care. A full à la carte menu that caters to all cravings — eaten open-air, shaded, with the ocean breeze moving through and sand beneath your feet. Classic cocktails, fresh juices, a selection of beers, wines and spirits. And a sun-downer worth planning your afternoon around. A cold drink is always within reach.
Breakfast, lunch and dinner served daily from 8 am to 10 pm — to overnight guests and day visitors alike. The simple pleasure of warm service by the sea.

Beach fun, special events and excursions Things to do
This is the kind of place where you can spend the day doing absolutely nothing — or everything. Lounge by the beach, explore the coastline, or dive into adventure.

However you choose to spend your time, we’ll help make it happen.
Join us for the day! Weekends and Public Holidays
During weekends and public holidays, our beachfront spaces are especially popular. A small redeemable beach coupon is therefore required for day visitors, with the full value redeemable against any food or drinks from our menu.
It’s simply a relaxed way for guests to enjoy our facilities throughout the day — including our restaurant & bar, shower facilities, and beach beds (subject to availability). Thanks so much for your understanding, it helps us keep the beach relaxed and enjoyable for everyone.
is a different kind of magic to the beach at noon. The beach at 6 in the morning
Before the bar opens. Before the ferry’s first arrivals. The water is still and warm and clear. The light, soft and golden. The whole beach, almost entirely yours. There is more to explore than a day allows.
Rooms, chalets, and apartments tucked into the coastal forest — a short stroll from the shore. Comfortable beds, considered rooms, everything you need to rest deeply and wake up ready.
To have the morning, you’ll need to stay the night.
