Nature and cleanliness

Stayed in May 2024

The location is beautiful - surrounded by nature: forest, managed gardens, mountain river and you can even see mt. Meru on clear days. The staff are super friendly and the hostel encourages everyone to be friendly with each other. We had breakfast, dinner and beers with other guests. Made new friends and then went on day trips with them - all thanks to Banana eco farm for facilitating that :) PS. Mike does amazing pictures, his art is all over the farm - dont forget to visit his paint shop :)

the road to the property is a mess, especially in rain season. not reachable by Bajajji or boda because of the wholes in the road. we always had to go with a car or walk (20 minutes)

beautiful banana farm with an eco system, great breakfast and food in general! The staff is super friendly and helpful. The nature around the whole property is beautiful and a great place to unwind and relax! We had the private cabin next to the river, no wifi there but very cozy for couples :)

Absolutely nothing!

Banana Farm is such a gem and our group felt extremely lucky to have had a chance to experience it. There is so much to recommend about this place: the expansive grounds, the serene atmosphere, the delicious foods, the delectable banana varieties, and particularly the welcoming staff. Shoutout to Regina from front desk with your contagious laughter and Ivan from the kitchen with your heartwarming attentiveness. You made our stay so memorable, we look forward to visiting and staying with you again and again.

The road to get there was rough but my taxi handled it just fine

I love an eco vibe. Everything seems sustainable. The staff are very kind and helpful. The breakfast and dinner were SO delicious and probably everything was from their farm. I wish I could have stayed longer and enjoyed the many activities they have available, but I was only passing through. Stay here, you won’t regret it!

Wonderful, green escape from Arusha. I only stayed a couple of days and was away working most of the time, but there was so much on offer to do and experience it would be a great place to spend more time. Home cooked food ood was wonderful!

The route to the location was very bad, our taxi driver did not want to bring us

Amazing scenery, great people working. Good food and a very fun atmosphere

The hill to get there is pretty rough when it's raining sometimes transportation wants to charge higher prices because of the road. Otherwise, I love everything about the place. Even considering the road, I'd still come back..

Everything! I've come four separate times on my trip to Tanzania. It is like a little nature retreat. Great staff, excellent cooks, wonderful breakfast, peaceful environment, comfortable rooms, quotes and art everywhere. I love it!

As I travelled with children, I expected house cleaning every day or bedding changing at least after 3 days, bathroom/toilet cleaning everyday, but this did not happen, so I was a bit disappointed. I hope this will be worked on in the future

The place was amazing, quiet and that's how i wanted it to be

Beautiful hostel, friendly staff. A haven in the hillside, would highly recommend!

Sometimes the staff wasn't really bothered but overall it was good.

We spent 3 nights at Banana farm and had such a good time. We stayed in one of the eco cabins which felt like a little adventure and the view on Mount Meru was great. The food was good and there was so much to do: outdoor cinema, painting, going down the river. It was perfect with a toddler and great environment to relax.

The road to the place is rough and really bad for small cars due to rain. 4 wheel can do bettter

The ambience is amazing

The hostel is located very beautifully in the lush mountains, besides a beautiful river. It is so cozy and the shaff is beyond helpful. The food was AMAZING! Almost everything we had for breakfast was grown on the farm.

This place is amazing and so so lovely! I stayed for one night, but decided to extend. Rooms were comfortable, hot shower, delicious food and very cheap - from farm to table, very fresh and tasty. Staff is lovely and they really make effort to host you well. Every corner of the farm is nicely decorated. You get to eat bananas as much as you want. There is a spot to enjoy the nature and view of the Mount Meru peak.. also you get to meet a lot of people, nice travellers, make friends. Will definitely come back

Nothing to complain about

The location is outside Arusha and not easy to go! But the place is breathtaking and very very special! Nature and the love for the details as well as the team make this place an unforgettable experience!

My favourite stay I have ever had abroad. The staff were the friendliest people you could ever meet. The meals were all delicious and cooked with love and everyone always wanted to help me whenever they could. Particular shout out to Regina and Naisharwa <3

Nothing wrong but something to note: The road is bad getting to the farm so don’t come with a tuk tuk

I stayed in a one room cabin and it was amazing. The banana and coffee plants were directly in front of my room and even when it was chucking it down with rain it was still so nice to sit on the veranda. It was very reasonably priced The whole place is beautifully done. They’ve taken care of every detail. The tour was really interesting. You don’t just learn about all the plants but also the plans for the future. The food was really tasty.
