Mwi Village House

Mto wa Mbu

Mwi Village House in Mto wa Mbu provides accommodation with a garden and a shared lounge. With lake views, this accommodation provides a terrace. The bed and breakfast offers rooms with air conditioning, free private parking and free WiFi. we did not know what to expect as mwi village does not had a lot of reviews. We booked anyway and did not regret it. Later on we discovered that the reason that there were not a lot of reviews (yet) is because he only startrd the accommodation 2 years ago and its not on tripadvisor or facebook yet to have more visibility. Our stay was above our expectations. The accommodation consists of different houses, which are spacious and have a big bathroom. Mr Mwi has a lot of animals which made it even more special. He has built everything himself (over 12 years) and we admire what he did and accomplished. He is super kind, funny and also interested in you as a person. We only stayed 2 nights and regretted that we could not stay 1 night more. There is a very kind girl who makes breakfast and dinner on request. We could choose what we wanted to eat, which was great and much appreciated. In the evening we just stayed with mr mwi, had dinner on the terrace while watching the sunset and the stars. Mr mwi also helped us with some excursions. We went with him to an authentic masaai village close to the accommodation, which was great as he knew the real price (only pay per car) and he protected us from the crazy expensive tourist prices. He can also arrange other excursions such as biking around lake manyara at a very good price. so just tell him what you would like to do and he will arrange it for you. If you want a real authentic experience just book here, you will not regret it. Thank you so much Mwi! We will keep in touch 😀

Karatu safari camp Lodge

Karatu

Providing mountain views, Karatu safari camp Lodge in Karatu provides accommodation, a garden, a shared lounge, a terrace and a bar.

There is a private bathroom with shower in all units, along with free toiletries and slippers. The young Maasai lad working at the lodge was fantastic. He worked so hard to ensure we enjoyed our stay. The Manager is also a very nice gentleman. On the day we were leaving he took us all the way into town and helped make sure we got on the correct bus to Arusha. The breakfast was really excellent and included fresh juice, delicious home made pancakes, eggs, peanut butter and honey and a big selection of fruit. We really enjoyed the 3-course dinner which was delicious. Our room was good, especially the beds which are super soft and comfortable. Location is really good if you want to be based near Ngorongoro and the other nearby attractions. The property boasts some nice areas for sitting around relaxing as well as a lovely cat that spends much of its time sitting around relaxing. This is a really good value for money property run by lovely people

Ava garden backpackers

Mto wa Mbu

With garden views, Ava garden backpackers is situated in Mto wa Mbu and has a restaurant, a 24-hour front desk, bar, garden, sun terrace and outdoor fireplace. There is a private entrance at the homestay for the convenience of those who stay. There is free private parking and the property features paid airport shuttle service. Words cannot describe how grateful I am for finding this location along my journey. I BOOKED FOR 2 NIGHTS BUT ENDED UP STAYING ALMOST A MONTH. The hostel is located on the edge of Manyara national park, basically the entry to the wilderness (how lucky can one be?!)🫶🏻🍀💚. When I got out of hectic Arusha, I was desperately seeking for a green and chill stay, far from bustling or too touristy places. I was welcomed by the lovely staff, Diana, Neema and Dattomax J. The moment I met them I realized the experience will be personal. I told them I wish for a local experience and visit particular tribes in the surrounding. Not only that I was given a great price (compared to the unreasonable prices some hostels give in Arusha), Dattomax has arranged my tours the nights before. Absolutely last minute requests from my side but all was realized absolutely professional. Through the staff I had the opportunity to learn a huge scope of information about the culture, more specifically: family manners & values, politics, farming, cooking and music. Throughout my stay I had over plenty different activities covered: PRIVATE TRIBE VISITS (hadzabe, datoga, masaii), GREEN PROJECTS (visit to different contemporary and traditional painters, school visits), SAFARIS (arranged for next day incl. Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro), FOOD AND FABRIC MARKETS (later visited a local tailor which was also a beautiful experience), WATERFALLS & SECRET VIEWPOINTS. And let's just include activites as Coca moto (setting fire in the garden of Ava), night outs and all the deep talks. The food catered was breakfast included: always fresh fruits, vegetables, local bites and Diana's infamous sweet pancakes. 🥞 ❤️ (lunch and dinner was also possible).The beds were super comfy, all equipped bathrooms with HOT SHOWERS ALL TIMES!! Which is super rare for hostels in Africa. My eternal gratitude for everything.
