Safari villa was neat and clean, we had a safari trip and stayed in this hostel. Breakfast was amazing. Quite room and service were fast. Stayed for one night after the trip. I wish to come back and stay while coming for our next trip to Arusha.

This place is yet to be discovered and get the recognition it deserves. The location is not very great, but you forget that fact soon as you enter the compound because it is quite beautiful, with amazing customer service. The design of the property is simple, modern and elegant with a mini-pool to boot. I loved the mezzanine design (which reminds me of Heritage Collection Skylight in Singapore :) and the well thought out interior, including a mini-bar fashioned dining area, well furnished kitchen, a huge smart tv infront of a comfortable couch. The staff were also super helpful and went out of their way to make you comfortable.

It was a very nice stay. The house is quite central and a very homy get away in the middle of town. Gerald is a very friendly and uncomplicated host with a great taste of indoor design! The breakfast was great, lots of fruit, fresh juice and eggs. Loved it!

The property went above my expectations, it was almost a private villa you'd probably get nowhere in Arusha in that price range. Even my safari guide was puzzled as to how I discovered it. Don't let the lower number of reviews take you elsewhere, it opened in 2023. There's a private garden, lush and manicured with perfection, a balcony, two roof top terraces to enjoy 360deg view of the area and not to forget clear view of Mt Meru, and it's immaculately clean throughout the property. To top it off, the staff was the kindest and most helpful bunch of people, I was blown away by the hospitality of Walter and Jackson who helped me with SIM card, restaurant suggestions, even helping recovering our power bank we left at the SIM store. They made every efforts to make our stay memorable. Definitely coming back here if in Arusha next.

Emma is a lovely host, who does everything for you. Warm lunch, dinner if you want, she drove me in the city to buy a lot of stuff for the Kilimanjaro-Trek since my backpack was lost, so that I could still do it. The house is very clean, good shower with warm water, and it has a nice living room too if you want to relax a little bit. Really good beds, quiet area so you can sleep very good at night. Just a little bit outside for walking by foot in the town, but that is no problem since Emma is so friendly and will for sure arrange everything that you could go and come back there.

Everything was amazing! The place was excellent, I would like to come again next year! Wonderful stay! Very professional and clean! My stay was absolutely wonderful! From the moment I arrived, I felt so welcomed and comfortable. The place is beautiful, spotless, and full of thoughtful details that show how much care and attention the hosts put into everything. The atmosphere is calm, cozy, and peaceful — I truly felt at home, everything was perfectly clean and organized. The hospitality was outstanding: the host was kind, friendly, and always ready to help, which made my experience even more special. It’s definitely one of those places that you already want to return to as soon as you leave. I highly recommend it!

Hope was an amazing host for our homestay! He even organised that his friend Yaya showed us around and explained us the culture of the local community. He provided all inclusive food and beverage. We taught each other food recipes and language skills - like friends!

I really loved my stay here - Innocent is a great host, always going an extra mile to help or accommodate his guests. As it was my first time in Tanzania, he made it much easier for me to get used to it, helped arrange transportation, order food from delicious local restaurant etc. Also breakfast served was delicious!
