Beautiful and hospital cottage immersed in greenery. You can hear river flowing and birds chirping in this very peaceful place. We enjoyed interacting with the hosts, who were always quick to help with anything. The house is well designed with every detail thought through to make for a comfortable stay. The nearby restaurant by a lake, also belonging to the hosts and offering food delivery, was another highlight of our stay.

    A unique, quiet and cozy hotel surrounded by a beautiful garden. I recommend to all those who have an Arusha - Serengeti route. 20min to the airport in Aruszy and the comfort of relaxation much larger than in hotels in the city. Beautiful climatic rooms and a restaurant. And the food really high class. At this price, this was an improving hotel in which we were in this area.

    An oasis of calm awaits you at Sanna Lodge. Set on a slope of beautifully landscaped tropical gardens established 30yrs ago are a few scattered rooms and small bungalows overlooking a wonderful secluded and inviting swimming pool. The staff are exceptional, relaxed, helpful and friendly, nothing is too much trouble. I used this as my base on my recent trip to Tanzania returning to the Lodge 4 times. It was perfect for my needs and an idyllic place to come back to and recharge between each section of the trip.

    We had an incredible experience at Mazzola Safari House in Tanzania. The hosts, Innocent and Evelyn, were exceptionally kind and accommodating. They not only provided a comfortable stay but also assisted in booking an amazing safari for us. The charming ambiance of the place, coupled with the delightful garden, made our stay truly memorable. Highly recommended for those seeking a unique and enjoyable stay in Tanzania.

    Lovely staff, especially Anton, who couldn't go more out of the way to help. When my other accommodation let me down, he organised a taxi to get me across. The room was gorgeous and very cosy. The bed and pillows were very comfy. It was decorated amazingly. The breakfast was absolutely amazing. There were lots of outside seating arwas including a bonfire at night. The ribs place next door does amazing food and has lovely staff.

    The location is a bit out of the center of Arusha but it's very nice to be outside the pollution and the noise. The hotel is cosy and the rooms are nicely decorated and comfortable. They work with another hotel Mambo Hideway which a small hidden romantic paradise to have a nice diner and cocktails.
