Dee is such a nice host. If you are looking for an authentic way to get to know the Tanzanian culture and people, this is the place to go. It feels more like a home than a hotel. More like a stay with friends than with strangers. Dee and Peter helped us a lot with the organization of trips & always did the extra mile for us. We really enjoyed our stay here! Thanks again, Dee & Peter ☺️

Everything about this little oasis is PERFECT. It is a beautiful home and you are made to feel like family. Momma Jackie is one of the most amazing women who will feed you breakfasts that will blow your mind. Simba is a SUPER man. (Even the dog gives you love) The grounds are gorgeous; the home is cozy and the private room was great. Highly recommend! My room was well maintained; you can use the kitchen; Simba organized my taxi to leave. 5 stars of awesomeness.

The stay was exceptional, with their services. This is the kind of stays that change your life. We were a family of 4. We were very well taken care of by Beatrice, the manager. We were supposed to go for materuni hike, but unfortunately we were not able to do it. Yet, we didnt regret a bit. Had good company of other guests. The food was phenomenal. The dinner was buffet with swhili food. On beautifully set table where all the guests sit together and eat. We all had a great time. In the morning, janet,one of the staff, showed us around the village and showed us some animals, which my kids thoroughly enjoyed. They plucked some fresh avocados and gifted us. Another staff, braided my girls hair. These are core memories for them. Thank you.

We had a truly warm and heartfelt welcome at Nyota Safari Lodge. From the moment we arrived, we felt embraced by the lodge’s warmth and hospitality. Our dinner was a special experience, prepared with love by two wonderful women from the local area. Each dish was served to us by Daudi, who not only ensured everything was perfect but also shared fascinating insights into the origins of the dishes. The food was beyond delicious—it was nourishing, comforting, and made with true care. The pumpkin soup was an absolute standout—so delicate, smooth, and soothing, it felt like a warm embrace. The dinner itself had an almost ceremonial quality, filled with warmth and authenticity. We had the pleasure of inviting Eric to join us for a while, and our conversation was both stimulating and inspiring—he is truly an impressive and insightful person. Beyond the wonderful hospitality, the gardens at Nyota Safari Lodge are absolutely stunning, bursting with colorful flowers and a peaceful atmosphere. And of course, the friendly little kitten was an added delight! This was more than just a stay—it was a deeply memorable and nourishing experience that we will cherish forever. 🌿✨

Our flight out of JRO was early and so we wanted to stay close to the airport. Catherine's place is perfect for this. She was very friendly and helpful, instructed TukTuk-drivers, organised transfer to the airport and much more. Dinner with the family was great and we also had a quick breakfast though our flight was early. Everything is very clean. Value for money is perfect! We can recommend and would book with Catherines place again!

Fantastic, the place is ideally located near the center and bus station so it’s really easy if you have an early bus. The house is beautiful and big, with a nice balcony, I could even see the klilimandjaro from living room and breakfast . Bedroom is very clean , big and nice which for the price is surely the best ratio quality of town. What makes this place truly unique are the very kind owners taking care of you, helping and making sure you have all the assistance in Moshi. Food is absolutely amazing , best diner I had in three month traveling in Africa. Definitely the place you wanna go to if you are backpacking in Africa and looking for authenticity at a great place , thanks

    Karibu Africa Home is a lovely homestay in the outskirts of Moshi. The place is located in a residentail area within walking distance (a bit of a walk, though) from the city center. There a re a few nice restaurant closeby. Our room was huge and pretty cosy. The bathroom was very basic. The breakfast was one of the best we got in Tanzania. Lovely coffee, eggs, pancakes, fresh fruits etc. In overall, the price-value was excellent.

    We had an excellent stay at MKoani. Dee, our host was very welcoming and helpful at proposing activities and restaurants. The home stay was in a quiet neighbourhood a bit outside the hustle bustle of the town. There are several restaurants at walking distance in the neighbourhood. Special thanks to Muddy who drove us around to visit the waterfall, coffee village and the hot spring. He was very helpful around town as well. We also had our clothes washed for a very cheap price. Oh forgot to mention the yummy vegan breakfast Dee had us prepared.
