Saadani Beach Camp

Everything!! We loved Saadani Beach Camp! It is a bit if a drive to get there but is was 100% worth is! We stayed two nights and visited the park for one morning safari and an afternoon safari. In the morning we did not see any other car! Incredible!

Nothing

Saadani Beach camp is an amazing place to relax and to enjoy the nature. Long walks on the beach or drive in the bush made our experience to reconnect with the nature, not too far from the city. The team is absolutely fantastic and we will come back for sure.

All is honestly very good!

Great accomodation, great crew, great view, great food- just perfect!

Besides the really nice place, very tastefull and serene + a very friendly, service for beakfast and lunch, we were unfortunatly really dissapointed with Valentina (receptionist). The way she handled the bills was the worst we ever encounted. We travelled all over the world, but we never experienced this kind of attitude and unprofessionell handling of guests, ever. After we specifically asked what we could see on the boat safari, she told us crocodiles and hippos all over. After we arrived we got the information that in the hot season crocodiles are not to be found on the shore or even up in the water. We did not see a single one. The next nightmare was the driver she sent us for our pick up. He picked us up from Africana bus stop (we booked a Bolt from the airport to the pick up at Africana, which is 25 km away from the airport in the worst traffic jam) and Steve (driver) still wanted the full 200 $ for 1 way as he would have gotten when starting from the airport (bills attached with Africana bus stop). After finaly arriving at Sadaani Beach Camp, Steve together with Valentina added 80 $ entrance fee (incl car & driver) for the park + 80 $ at the exit, which was supposed to be included in the 200$ (total 1 transfer+ entrance fee 280 $ for 1 way!!!!). At first when we booked Sadaani Beach camp on booking.com, the price seemed reasonable, but after all the added costs and misinformation we really felt scammed. Unfortunatly for what looked like a nice place at first, turned out to be our worst nightmare. Going back to the airport, we went to the ATM to withdraw the money and explained Steve that we owe him the first transfer only fom Safari Bus Stop, not from the airport. He grabbed my husbands backpack and threatened us to call some friends. What sounds like out of a bad movie, unfortunatly happened. I usually don't write long reviews, but I felt that it is my responsibility to share this experience. Be aware, ask all kind questions beforehand. Good luck!
