Ras Kutani
Ras Kutani is set on a crescent of white sandy beach, washed by the gentle surf
of the temperate Indian Ocean. The resort is situated only 35 kilometres south of
the port of Dar es Salaam but offers the perfect hideaway, far from the madding
crowd. The setting ensures that feeling of being on one's own tropical island. The
hotel is flanked by a fresh water lagoon abutting onto a coastal forest, which spills
to the edge of the unspoilt and undeveloped beach.
Accommodation is in nine spacious,
charming cottages and four suites, constructed of natural, local materials that
harmonise perfectly with the wonderful surroundings. Ethnic furnishings impart a
sense of the Tanzanian coast's rich cultural heritage. Each cottage has its own
en suite bathroom and large veranda with views of the azure ocean.
While relaxation
is the keynote at Ras Kutani, the lodge also offers a range of sports for the more
active guests. The temperate seas and proximity of coral reefs ensure a wealth of
marine life and interest for those keen on snorkelling. Apart from a variety of
colourful fish, dolphins, whales and turtles are frequent visitors to these shores
and we do provide snorkeling equipment. For those who prefer a somewhat drier experience
kayaks are available to explore the fresh water lagoon. And when the surf is up
boogie boards provide plenty of thrills in the surf nearby. Regardless of what guests
choose, the tides will not interfere, even if it is just for a swim in the ocean:
at Ras Kutani one can do so at any time off a sand beach!
