Aroma Home - Eco-Cabins on a Coffee Farm, hotel in Arusha

Located in Arusha, 5.9 miles from Old German Boma, Aroma Home - Eco-Cabins on a Coffee Farm provides accommodations with a garden, free private parking, a shared lounge and a terrace.

Stayed here after a Safari and before climbing Meru. Was an excellent place to stay - cozy, beautiful, and with very generous and warm hosts. We had an afternoon walk around the entire area guided by one of the hosts (where the farmers gifted us some free eggplants (aubergine) that they were harvesting), and then a very nice dinner cooked by them. By the looks and sounds of the place after speaking with them, they are new to this eco-cabin business, but have great plans to expand and make it even more impressive for tourists who come through and want to experience the calm, quiet, and very naturally beautiful areas of Tanzania. Very worthwhile staying here!

    My brother and I had perfect 2 days in Shamba Hostel. We were the only guest in the entire Hostel but breakfast and dinner were prepared with so much love and it was very tasty...thank you for these perfect dinners. Rooms were very clean with clean bathrooms on suite. No luxury at all, but everything there what you need. The host, his wife and the rest of the staff were very kind and friendly. They also took us for a short stroll through the nearby village. If I ever come to Arusha again, I will stay here. Thank you for an unforgettable stay.

    Great location and sets you up well if you are going on safari. There are multiple types of birds everywhere and saw giraffes in the distance. Lucas and team were great.

    The food was well cooked and was near what we normally eat. Food was served on time. The lodging was modest and aged but clean. Owners were very pleasant and accommodating. Owners speak good English.. This Hostel should be visited when in that area of Tanzania.

    The hostel arranged the airport pick up which was great. Nice spacious rooms, hot water and wonderful food provided for dinner and breakfast. Lovely garden. Friendly staff. The hostel is also used for voluntary projects focusing on local development activities. Lovely walk nearby in the countryside and by the river.

    The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. No request is too little or too large. The lodge is very tastefully designed and the food is great. Great location just next to Arusha National Park.
