"Absolutely legendary experience at Aya Sophia Wildlife Hotel in Arusha. The best place to enjoy our honeymoon and bask in the sun, crystal blue pool, hit sauna and steam rooms, high tech gym, 5 star cuisine and the amazing animals relaxing within the hotel grounds. Highly recommended all year round."

"With such a low daily cost, I was worried it would be minimal. But to my pleasant surprise, the room I was given was very modern looking. It had its own bathroom, and plugs for charging along with strong WiFi. Nice comfortable queen sized bed and a bunk bed.
Deborah and her husband were very attentive hosts. They arranged transportation to the airport for me. The meals were low priced, tasty and plentiful. The compound has a basketball court as advertised. There were also fruit trees and...

"Yes there is a bumpy 15 minute ride from the main road but the pay off is a tranquil environment to relax at Kili Villa. Our room had a lovely outlook to the gardens where local fauna and birds did their thing. The staff were welcoming and courteous, and the food was delicious. Perhaps the experience could have been improved with better communication about food and drink options when we arrived (with an explanation card). There are no other options for F&B in the area (aside from the golf club)...

"Our family of four had a great stay although it was just one night. Not far from Kilimanjaro airport. A great breakfast was included and the staff was very friendly. "

We felt very welcome at Kaswende Farm. Family Kaswende was very hospitable, the farm is a beautiful place a few km away from the main road, between mount Meru and mount Kilimanjaro.

The experience here was truly unique. My wife and I felt taken care of from start to finish, even though we only had one night there. On any return trips to Arusha, this will be our preferred lodging.

House of West Kili is a beautiful and special place. The staff are welcoming and so kind, the rooms are very spacious and clean and the property is beautiful. The most impactful thing is the pride with which everyone works, making you feel at home. I recommend staying here and hope I get to visit again!
