Warm and welcoming guest houses are ideal for travellers who prefer unfussy accommodation with a personal touch. They are usually family-run, and your host will provide local recommendations and optional meals. Often cheaper than regular hotels, guest houses can also feature a cosy living room and a garden.
Very simple cheap accommodation but perfect for getting in and out of Ngorongoro Crater area. Beautiful young owners providing exceptional service and safe clean offering.
We opted for a second brief stay at this lovely guesthouse en route from the Serengeti and were upgraded to a room in the bungalow, which we were grateful for, as we enjoyed the wonderful views from the patio.
Dinner was delicious, however, breakfast was a little chaotic. Despite being slightly late as we had to wait for the water to come on to be able to shower and being asked what time we would like breakfast, we were not expected and had to lay our own table.
After a long and dusty journey to Karatu, this guest house seemed like a little oasis. We were warmly welcomed by Olivia and the staff with juice before being shown to our rooms. We stayed in the bungalow outside, with a beautiful view of the garden especially sunset. Dinner was excellent, as was breakfast the next morning. We ordered packed lunches, which were substantial for our needs during a long day on safari.
Olivia also organised for our laundry to be done.
Wonderful place to stay in a beautiful setting. Lots of flowers and tropical fruit trees. A lovely view of the surrounding area. As far as travel goes in Africa it is close to Ngorongoro Crater, Serengeti and Tarangire National Park. We based ourselves here for four nights and we loved it as there are plenty of different areas to sit and enjoy the peace and quiet. The staff were amazing and did everything for us. We loved the wooden huts and slept well at night. Food was great - ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Great hosts, helpful, caring and fun. Breakfast was plentiful and the local area very nice to walk around!. Safe place and very chilled and FRESH COFFEE, not horrible tin stuff
