The staff were very welcoming and the room was clean and cool! Compared to nearby hotels in Dar where I found the rooms a bit musty and the bed less comfortable, Sea Cliff was great!

Lovely stay!

Loved my stay. I wasn't around during the day so I can't comment on the renovation noise but the pool wasn't busy and in a lovely spot. My room had the best view and the hotel staff was constantly checking in on how things were going and wanted to know if they could do anything to make my stay better. I would absolutely stay again!

Good service and very friendly

The hotel is under construction, which did make it a bit noisy at some places. But the manager did everything to make me feel comfortable, and she did give a room away from the construction. All the staff are very friendly and helpful. I will definitely come back. Was a pleasure staying there

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We are repeat customers and we’ve always had a great experience here! Excellent customer service, beautiful facilities, and great food on-site with incredible scenery. Watching the sunrise through a sea view window is worth a visit by itself! The only critique I’d have is that the hot water doesn’t get very hot in the shower/bath, but you do have a kettle available if need be. Besides that, this is a hotel I’d recommend for a true luxury experience!

Focus on the small details

Room was spacious and comfortable. However the lack of any water pressure or hot water was very annoying. Also, only one or two TV channels ever worked.

It is an absolutely magical spot. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The inly slight criticism that I have is that the building itself is a little dated and there are always problems with TV signal. I would not mind if there was not TV in my room but as the rooms have a TV, my expectation is that is should work.

Check in was done without explanation of the room etc. The sitting are by the lobby smelled damp and terrible. I was very very disappointed with the breakfast for the money I paid for this resort. Renovation was being done so very noisy and we were not informed of this when we booked this hotel in Expedia. Disappointed with this hotel I will not recommend this hotel to anyone.
