Eazy's Place, hotel in Dar es Salaam

Located just 13 km from Kunduchi Water Park, Eazy's Place offers accommodation in Dar es Salaam with access to a garden, a bar, as well as full-day security.

An experience that will always remain in my heart! I stayed with Eazy and his wonderful family for 10 days, it is amazing how at home I felt from day one. It was wonderful to wake up every morning to the sound of roosters crowing and surrounded by greenery, play with the kids and watch Eazy's work who is an incredible batik artist. The rooms are simple, clean and with an attached bathroom, the home-cooked food simply delicious. With a boda you can easily reach beaches and towns, and Eazy is a caring host who will take care of you in every way. If you are looking for a peaceful place outside the city chaos, where you can experience local life and share unique moments with beautiful people, this is the right place for you. Asante Sana Eazy 🙏🤍

The hosts went above and beyond to ensure that my stay was comfortable, memorable, and truly special. The homestay itself was a cozy haven, impeccably clean, and tastefully decorated. The room I stayed in was not only spacious and well-appointed but also had a homely charm that made me feel relaxed and at ease. The attention to detail in every aspect of the accommodation was truly impressive
