Boutique hotel vacation rentals in East Africa

Great as always! I've been staying at Glen Marion regularly over the last few years and have always had a great stay. I have been safe, accommodation is always immaculate and comfortable. I will keep staying there in future.

Dear Julia, It was a pleasure to stay in hodi hodi. The place was fresh and felt private. It’s on a quit part of the island. Simon was great with the welcoming and arranging everything perfectly. I came to putrefy ! Simon arranged daily fresh coconuts and papaya ! I loved it. Grateful for making it possible. The rooms where fresh and very clean. The towels smelled like fresh flowers. It felt like being alone on on a island ! Good communication, Good accommodation, Good memories ! All fresh and pure ! Loved it ! Thank you for creating this beautiful place ! Many more people will spend a great time at hodi hodi !

Great accommodation in a great location at a great price

I had a smooth time in Zanzibar. This was my first time ever booking on Airbnb and I indeed loved the stay. Ginie, who was the host around was very friendly and assisted a lot during my stay. It is a walking distance from the Ferry and safe to walk balk home from the main road even after a night out. Loved every detail of it and look forward to staying there again after Ramadhan when I visit Zanzibar.

Location: It’s at the other end of the “famous” Nungwi walk, having said that it’s also perfectly close to the beach and less crowded. The hotel itself is beautiful well equipped beautiful pool and THE BATHROOM is gorgeous. The breakfast is fantastic and sooo delicious and the staff are friendly and welcoming. Thank you for hosting us.

Zanzistar is a very beautifully styled small guesthouse - very colourful and tropical in the day, and candlelit and very atmospheric in the evening. The rooms in the family house are similarly gorgeously designed and are spacious and very clean - Zanzistar is such an aesthetically pleasing place to stay! Fleur and her team are very personable and hugely helpful in every matter, and the food and drinks are some of the best we had in Zanzibar. Jambiani itself is an incredibly idyllic beach and much quieter than other parts of Zanzibar - in short a wonderful place to stay if you wish to be further off the tourist trail!

Highly recommend this place. Rooms are very nice and clean. Breakfast is good and the staff is the best especially Sophia makes everything for the guests. And I love to have a pool.

Fleur De Lis Villa was wonderful. The hotel was beautiful, the staff was friendly, and the food was great. The only downside is there is no beach to swim at - you need to travel about 15 minutes away to get to one. That said, there are two lovely small pools and the grounds are small but very nice. The room was exactly what we needed and they went out of their way to make sure our two year old was comfortable as well. I would recommend anyone stay here who wants an out of the way spot to spend a relaxing few days.

Naomi’s home felt exactly like home away from home. The whole family is warm and welcoming. We loved the little touches in the room, as well as the unexpected breakfast they cooked for us. Just perfect!

We don't have words, even though it looks like a phrase made, it's like that. Staying with Nathalie and Alvin was a gift. The place is beautiful, you eat great, our little girl loved her room and the cats, we every detail. It was sad to come away, but these days in Jambiani they left us with the necessary energy to face the work that awaits us. Thank you for everything!!!

Wings & Water was just incredible and highly recommend others to stay here! The staff are amaizing, the food is amaizing and the people make you feel so at home. Dankie Johann - dit was onvergeetlik!!

The room we had was quite warm as the ventilation was not good. When we inquired from the staff if a better ventilated room might be available they told us we needed to contact Elena. They could make no changes without her approval. I knew Elena was out of the country due to a family situation. I messaged her but did not expect a response and accepted the situation without complaint. We did not ask for air conditioning, simply inquired if a different room might be available. So keep this in mind that you may find the temperature uncomfortable.

Wow it’s hard to put into words how tranquil and amazing this place truly is, from the very first I moment I felt an overwhelming radiance of peace flowing through my body, from the staff to the beautiful scenery everything was amazing and I highly recommend, Asante for the amazing experience and if you are reading this review this is your sign to go ahead and book as I believe all can enjoy.

100% the best find in Addis for location, price, comfort and hospitality. If you get a chance to book here do it. Also the free breakfast was great and the communication honest and quick. Wonderful!

Very lovely place! Mikau take very good care of you and made my stay wonderful.

Great place, very clean, staff and breakfast were all amazing. Would stay here again.

Baby bush lodge is a quiet and pristine lodge, the perfect get away yet with a great beach view. Their staff are amazing and friendly. They made the stay enjoyable. I spent most of the time watching the waves on the sandy beaches with blue waters just from the lodge. Enjoyed myself.

Hubert is just fantastic. I came to Moshi to climb Kilimanjaro, and he immediately connected me with an organizer who made the trip happen the very next day and at a very reasonable price. The rooms are basic but contain everything you need, with an on-site bar and restaurant. If you need to arrange anything, like transport or picking up supplies, Hubert is very quick and helpful. The hotel is located very close to the town centre, making it easy to find and get around.

I enjoyed staying at Nathan's, a cool laid back place with a restaurant on site. I enjoyed the live band on Friday night.
