We had such a wonderful time at Safari villa home, what an authentic and special place.They literally had me in tears as they embraced us with such a welcome.The story time in the evening while sharing meat. An unforgettable experience with a great Tanzanian history & culture This was an amazing visit. The location is phenomenal as it is settled in view of mount meru. The food was outstanding. Let’s not even talk about the room was magnificent and the relaxation that comes with it. The hospitality was great, this is a must come back place for me. Thank you

I stayed here for two nights while travelling solo in Tanzania and felt super safe and comfortable the whole time. You can tell right away that this is a very new hostel – everything is freshly renovated, clean, and not worn out at all, which makes it easy to feel at home. The location is great too: not far from the main road, so it’s quick and easy to get around with boda-bodas, the local motorbike taxis, or tuk tuks. Communication with the team was smooth and uncomplicated, and everything worked out perfectly. I would definitely come back and can highly recommend this place to other travellers!

Резник

From

We flew into Arusha after our stay in Zanzibar to begin our safari adventure, and choosing Oiti Boma turned out to be the perfect decision. From the very first moment, the staff greeted us with the warmest welcome, making us feel truly at home. Beyond the incredible hospitality, we were amazed by the beauty of the place itself: the rooms are authentic yet very comfortable, and the view of nature and the mountains is simply breathtaking. As someone who constantly creates content for social media, this was especially meaningful for me — every corner of the hotel felt inspiring and picturesque. We honestly didn’t expect that a hotel where we planned to stay for just one night would impress us so much. The food also deserves special mention — the chef cooks with fresh vegetables harvested directly from the hotel’s own garden, which made every meal feel special and full of flavor. Walking around the property, we were delighted to see beautiful plants and banana trees everywhere, adding to the serene and natural atmosphere. We can wholeheartedly say that Oiti Boma is a true hidden gem. Our short stay left such a lasting impression, and we would absolutely recommend this place to anyone visiting Arusha.

Beautiful location just outside town in a rural area with Mount Meru view - just stunning. The lodge itself differs a lot from other places in and around Arusha in architecture and atmosphere. It feels airy and at the same time cozy, still providing sufficient space for privacy if needed. A big thank you again to the very friendly and helpful staff who offered great service, kept the place very clean and prepared delicious fresh food. I loved the experience of my stay and will for sure be back!!
