Nothing actually

The location is perfect

Come for immediate access to the Jozani nature reserve, stay for the amazing local cuisine! Biosphere is the perfect name, as we enjoyed the neat lizards, the monkeys playing in the courtyard, and birds visiting. We loved the breakfast and asked for a new local dish each night - the best was the “Swahili corner” for 2. The theme to this place was “pole pole” or “gentle/careful/slow”. We learned to plan around things taking a little time, which is great - we are on vacation. It is simple and staff are friendly, with a low price to match the rural setting ;) Be aware: The hotel is adjacent to the national park but does not include the entry ticket. You must go to the park reception and get an entry ticket/trail guide. The trails are incredibly confusing so this is a good rule!

The environment is so lovely. Has a pool Quiet and relaxing

We loved staying at Kinazi Upepo. The location was perfect and it felt like a little jungle oasis with all the beautiful greenery throughout. Paje can be quite busy with a lot going on but after staying for a few days we realized Kinazi was just st the perfect location. We were close enough to be able to walk to all of the most crowded places with a lot going on but just on the cusp of the end of the chaos to feel a bit more private. The room was very comfortable and clean. The bathroom was very narrow though. The AC worked perfectly and after a few issues when arriving they fixed them right away. Another bonus is their sister lodge, which is a 5 minute walk, where you can use all of their facilities. We spent a few days enjoying their pool which was stunning and super private. The breakfast Kinazi provides is really great and plentiful. It is also a couple doors down from Mr. Kahawa where we really enjoyed eating. Highly recommend!
