Shipping container holiday rentals in East Africa

The house was spotless, and your thoughtful touches made us feel right at home. The host provided excellent communication

We enjoyed the place, there was nothing missing. The location a little far away allowed us to have a beautiful view of the coast. We were able to do (and we recommend) the volcano, the lava road, the lava tunnels, the circuses of Silaos and Salazie, the waterfall of the great pebble, the plant of great Anse and the salt pond, the garden of perfumes and spices, the blue stopover... all these sites are less than 1.5 hours from the accommodation. Only point of attention: avoid the path passing through the sugar cane fields, it is better to take the main road that passes north of the house.

can't say enough good things about Karien, her staff and this accommodation. The structure is wonderful witha beautiful view right on the river just across from a national park, is delightfully quiet and serene and is spotless with full service daily cleaning if you like. It was the highlight of our visit to 3 countries in Africa. Enjoyed using the outdoor grill one night and the gas stove was great as well. Do yourself a favor and book it for a stay. 😊

Very good stay at Eric's in a peaceful setting in the middle of nature with all the necessary comforts. i recommend this listing

We just spent a unforgettable time in the termite mound house with wildlifes surrounding us. Just perfect to explore Okavango from there. The staff was a very sympathetic person who gave us lots of supports.

It was an excellent stay .The host was great ,responsive,and friendly. The house was cosy,serene a breath taking surrounding.Will definitely be visiting again.

We had an amazing stay, initially we got lost but the caretaker Cristabella was really amazing and explained to us the directions. The place was better than our expectations, clean, well kept and with flexible check in and checkout time. Cristabella was really helpful and we had alot of fun interacting with her. Hoping to visit again sometime in future.

This place is a gem. The rooms were comfortable and included mosquito nets (not always standard or valued in Zambia). There was a large communal kitchen with gas stove and space to read, relax, play board games as well as satellite Wi-Fi. Very importantly, this place has a solar inverter and can power the lights, fridge, and fans in the rooms, as well as charge devices. Zambia is undergoing severe power cuts and therefore having some power and ability to have a fan in the hot season is essential. The only downsides to place is that it’s ideal to have a car, otherwise you will need a taxi to take you to get food etc. however the local app based taxi service (Yango) is reliable in Lusaka. It can also get a bit hot in the rooms during hot weather, but as mentioned, there is back up power to have a fan at night and leave the windows open, protected from mosquitoes by the net over the bed. Overall this is a great place and highly recommend it.

My experience at Christine's place. Her hospitality was beyond amazing - she truly went above and beyond to ensure we had a comfortable stay. The garden and flowers were absolutely stunning, adding to the perfect ambiance. It's rare to find such a warm and welcoming host, and we felt so grateful to have stayed at her place. I highly recommend Christine's place to anyone in need of a home away from home. Trust me, you won't regret it!😊"

Cosy Tiny Living is exactly that, a repurposed container that holds everything you need in a small space, including a reliable Wi-fi connection for those who need to work from home. Catherine and Jay are super responsive, friendly and accommodating hosts who don't hesitate to make an already homely experience even cosier. The friendly neighborhood is lined with local shops and restaurants providing your daily needs. For those looking for more "westernised" goods, Mountain View mall is at a walking distance and you are a short Uber ride away from Westgate Mall. I loved my stay here and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a place that feels like home in Nairobi.

Eunice's place is well maintained and very clean.The outdoor experience was amazing as well.Loved the place

Excellent! Great for single people or 2. Peaceful. Pleasant. Comfortable. Well arranged and well thought out. I didn't miss a thing. Do not hesitate.

Great stay ! Thami at reception was extremely friendly and very helpful. It’s very close to the border which is also great. The room was clean and cosy and I loved the 4 little cats that came to visit 🐱. We would definitely come back !

It is the perfect space, not too complicated, welcoming, warm and it felt like a home away from home. A perfect rating as everything matched not only the description, but the pictures used to marketing purposes. The peaceful area, amazing amenities, wifi and everything else in between was perfect. I would recommend it, especially for a stay as a coupe.

I was needed of a quiet-get away from NBO, when I get to this retreat, I couldn’t ask for more. Jacqueline, the host has been responsive and attentive to your questions and needs. She also has her full team including Arnold, and the caretaker on ground, Simon who will make sure you’re taken care of. The cabin is so cute, lovely, clean and environmental friendly. Not only you will reconnect to the beautiful nature but you will reconnect with your soul through the cold fresh-clean air, the sounds of nature and warm charcoals provided. The morning coffee is my favorite moment, so does a small walk to the stream just by the house. If you like outdoor & camping you’ll know what to prepare. Not about sleeping in a tent (as beds are provided & hot-shower) but more of the self-catering preparation and personal warm-clothes. If you are short on things, there’s Jamaa supermarket 15 mins drive-away to Ol Kalou town. So, take off your shoes, enjoy & feel the green yard! It’s one beautiful one.

Very nice place for families. We love the nature and space. Third time we visit.
