Wild Fig Tree Luxury Villa on a wildlife golf
Magnifique maison très agréable à vivre grâce a ses grands espaces et sa luminosité. On a l’impression d’être en harmonie avec la nature. Tout est réuni pour un séjour idyllique à Arusha. On peut alterner journées paisibles et littéraires au bord de la piscine ou découverte des lieux aux alentours. Excellent point de départ pour les activités : Arusha park, source d’eaux chaudes de Chemka, marchés locaux… Le personnel est bienveillant et a l’écoute des besoins. Excellent!

Forest Cottage by the water
Forest, nature, a place built by hand with love and wisdom... Two different species of monkeys foraging in the tress above on the same tree as Hornbills.. this place is piece of magic. The perfect spot for meditation, writing, relaxing... letting nature heal you. One of my favorite Airbnb's of all time!

Sayari Villas
**An Unforgettable Stay with Exceptional Hospitality!** From the moment we arrived, Veronica made us feel right at home. Her warmth and attention to detail truly set this Airbnb experience apart. The house itself is even more charming in person, spotlessly clean, thoughtfully decorated, and equipped with everything we could possibly need. The little touches, like indoor grown plants, a welcome note, made us feel so valued as guests.

Sereno Cabana
Glory was so lovely and friendly. We stayed here for a little work staycation and it was looooovely. I didn’t want to leave. Glory made us feel like family and took excellent care of us. Highly recommend. It was amazing. Can’t wait to come back to Arusha just to stay here again. Don’t hesitate- book!

Cozy house - walk to city 2/3
The place is clean and very homely as always, easy check-in and safe location with ease of access to the city centre as well outskirts of Kijenge, Moshono and Njiro. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Arusha.

The River Villa | Situated In A Lush Garden
Thank you so much, Petronila and Adam, for welcoming us so warmly. The house is lovely—comfortable, spacious, and beautifully furnished. The garden is large and lush, which we enjoyed to the fullest around the bonfire, BBQ, and Easter egg hunt, much to the delight of the kids (who also loved the big trampoline!). We truly appreciated your availability and, above all, your great advice for outings. Un grand merci 🙏🏼

Amora Villa
Amora Villa was the best experience for me and my family. The house is so cozy and clean with good envirnment to stay with kids. Everything you see in the pictures is everything you will see in reality. Evalune & Cedric are so welcoming, They gave us the best hospitality that felt like we are exactly at home. Also you notice the home smells so great as soon as you walk in😍 and the kitchen was stocked up with all important amenities making it so easy to prepare meals for my family. I highly recomend this home and i cant wait to stay here everytime i visit Arusha. This yet our best Air bnb Experience🥰🙏🏽

Wildlife House, 3 bedroom house, amazing design
We've just spent 3 nights at Wildlife House and had a wonderful experience. From the minute we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by Evaresti, the manager, and Sospeter, the caretaker. Sospeter was especially helpful in getting us situated, and ready to help with all our needs. We hired Chef Arnold for two days and enjoyed the wonderful meals prepared in the traditional Swahili way. The setting is perfect, with an equestrian facility located 5 minutes walking distance away. We rode horses throughout the property and rode among the herds of wildebeest, zebras, elands, impalas and gazelles. It was magical. The pool was so refreshing after the ride and walking around the property was great and very safe. It's a unique place to be and we had a 5 star experience.
Other great vacation rentals in Arusha

Masi Hill Villa
This house and the whole compound is big and made of high grade wood (maybe mahogany). There are hardly any mosquitoes or flies. The owner did a great job on that. The house and entire compound are very clean. My kids loved it. Cons: the owner needs to improve on communication, including about Wi-Fi usage, etc. The owner left his family photos in the house, which kind of ruined the vacation mood everyday we had to look at that reminder we are in someone else’s home. Also, the master bath is ok, but not big enough, especially the very small vanity/sink, to match the beauty of the house. The time of the year we were there was very cold and no good heating options in the house. Overall: the stay was worth it. I highly recommend this place.

City Retreat Njiro Round About
Place looked like the pics we saw online. host was responsive and reachable.

Siday Residence
Die Unterkunft ist sehr gut gelegen, an der Straße und trotzdem sehr privat und ruhig! Wir haben Last-Minute gebucht und keiner war vorbereitet auf unser Ankommen, trotzdem hat man uns herzlichst begrüßt und sein Bestes gegeben. Das Haus ist schön, die Betten bequem und der Gastgeber hat sich dann auch gut um unsere Anliegen gekümmert.

Apartment in a Gated Community
We had a lovely short stay at Ammar's place. The apartment was spacious and had a nice view and Ammar was very helpful with checking in to see if we needed anything. The area is peaceful and nice but not too far away from Arusha city centre. It might be slightly hard to find the first time around. Only downside was that the mentioned pool and gym were not in as nice condition as we had hoped. Would still stay again if in need of a spacious good place. Thanks Ammar!

Sunbird-Cottage-Mt. Meru
What a fantastic place nestled on the foothills of Mount Meru, perched on a hilltop, and surrounded by lush vegetation. Julian was a great and welcoming host. The fireplace made the place extra cozy.

BEEfriendly Nature Retreat
We had an absolutely wonderful getaway at the guest house at BEEtopia. It was a much needed restful time at this beautiful home. It’s clean, beautifully decorated, and has a well equipped kitchen (and you can preorder groceries to be delivered). Warren and Katherine are very kind and welcoming. Our kids loved this rental so much that they wanted to add to the review and share what they enjoyed. Our 13-year old son says he liked how quiet it was and there was an easy to get to Bee tour, also it was a good area for outdoor playing like frisbee. Our 11-year old daughter says how interesting they made the Bee tour and how kind the hosts were. Our 8-year old daughter says the honey is fresh and delicious!! We would stay here again in a heartbeat and highly recommend this Airbnb at BEEtopia!

Spacious Getaway: 4 BR, 5 Baths
We had a lovely time! Karo's place is great for a family trip to Arusha. Cosy private neighborhood, close to all the important places and amenities. Convenient access to the Airport through multiple routes. Close to several Supermarkets, Malls, cultural centre, national park and restaurants. We loved the in house chef, she made amazing local delicacies! My favourite restaurant was the Arusha Coffee Lounge! Lovley ambience with great coffee and meals, tucked right in the middle of a coffee plantation. Thanks Karo, you were a superhost and we will definitely visit Arusha again!
