Beach Crab Resort

Beach Crab

Reviewed By Scenic138553

During the current corona crisis, the Beach Crab (among most of the accomodations) suffers from the lack of tourists. We were happy to find the place open and the stuff around. + the ladies at the bar/ restaurant are adorable and very friendly. They even helped us cutting our fruits we got from the village and arranged the dining table and so on very nicely. + the chef is a magican! Food was ridiculously good + the location is absolutely stunning and the beach really nice and calm (no beach boys) - since almost no guests are around, the place seems to crumble away. Even though the staff is apparently around, things are not getting fixed. Rooms are only superficially cleaned. The tabs and showers only release teeny tiny bits of water. - if you stay at a Budget hut you can rent a fan for 2$ a night, but mostly there is no power during the night time. Plus you‘ll get a big family of insects as roomies. - as already mentioned, the food is very good, BUT except of water, beer and soft drinks you cannot order anything between meal times. You can‘t even get a fruit juice or a snack if you do not preorder your lunch/dinner. It is also not possible to order anything else other than the dishes on the blackboard. I asked for chips or a small salat - not possible. - nobody could be bothered to place the matresses at the beach for us, we only found out that they actually have them when other guests arrived (we stayed for a week!) - check out: we were told that creditcard payment is possible with an additional fee of 5% (before hand). Shortly bevor we had to leave, management said that it is only possible to pay the amount in US$. Well, they always use the same rate, so the price would have been 65$ more in total. Management explained that it is not possible to transfer Tansanian Shillings to their account and that they would always take the same rate, no matter what. (2000 TS = 1$) at the moment (2318 TS = 1$) If we wouldn‘t have checked the bill and put it into the currency calculator we just would‘ve paid 65$ for nothing.

A well run resort with friendly staff

Reviewed By boydc485

Everything was perfect! My beachfront cottage was very clean - no bugs or mosquitos due to the nice breeze. The whole resort looks brand new since everything is well maintained and even the sand is raked. For dinner, I chose filet steak with mashed potatoes. It came with a cream of vegetable soup served as a started with homemade bread. Desert was ice cream with chocolate sauce. In the morning I walked down the beach to the left and met a Masai guy sitting on his boat on the shore. Swimming was good at high tide right in front of the resort. The lounge chairs were very comfortable. It was interesting talking to Barry about how he built the resort. He's very much a hands on owner. After checking out I rode my motorcycle 16 km down the beach to the right during low tide to the next tide. Next time I'll try to pay a local fisherman a few dollars to take me out sailing.

During our Tanzania-Trip in sep 2018 we spent beautiful days at The Tides. chilled, relaxed luxury holidays, barefoot in the sand, dinner on the beach, diving, boat trip to turtle sandbank national park, nice people. Absolutely perfect! We intended to come back in 2020, but no way because of the pandemic. Looking forward to 2022. Kerstin, Hans and Emma
