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

Container house between sea and mountains
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.

the yellow box Gîte du Domaine de Beaumont
Very good stay at Eric's in a peaceful setting in the middle of nature with all the necessary comforts. i recommend this listing

Mama Out Of Africa - Riverfront home
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. 😊

Stunning setting and a comfortable well equipped lodge. Will be back for sure.

Termite Mound Villa
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.

Delightful “Isinya Glamtainer” just for you
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.

Delightful rooms in shipping container home!
I had been looking forward to my trip to Zambia, and I couldn't have chosen better accommodations. The Arise staff were incredibly attentive, communicative, and responsive to any concerns. I felt truly happy and lucky to experience such exceptional hospitality. Thank you for taking such great care of us!

Suburban Oasis Studio-The Mumbi House
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!😊"

Shipping Container Accommodation with outdoor seating

The Red Container-Off Grid
The place is neat and well maintained, spacious, and ideal to recharge. The bonfire was a plus for the chilly night. Eunice also kept extra blankets, bedding and towels for guests, which we loved. We also loved the board games.

Bright cozy container w/ private garden in Karen
Really lovely stay! It was my first time in a tiny container house and I didn't know what to expect. The space was looked even better in person and was really clean, cozy and well-decorated with everything I needed. The welcome snacks were a really nice touch and Wamuyu and Wanjiru were super responsive to my questions. Loved the location, private garden and quiet neighborhood and a good stopover location for safari or exploring Nairobi. I would highly recommend and I would be happy to stay again

bungalow et spa tiKub Malow
Extremely clean home! A place conducive to relaxation and disconnecting for a moment, the setting is pleasant, the co-host welcomed us: very discreet and kind! Location close to all amenities (St Louis 10 min walk!) The hot tub is huge and very clean! Honestly, of all the places we've been: this is the best!

Lakeview Haven - Nkebyo Cabin
Excellent stay, everything was as described, I can highly recommend this little gem to anyone!!

Oboē Gardenstē - Pathwē
I had an incredible stay at Oboe Gardenste in Grand Baie! The property is a peaceful oasis surrounded by lush greenery, making it a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle. The accommodations were clean, spacious, and well-equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay. The location was ideal—close to beautiful beaches, restaurants, and local attractions while still offering a quiet and relaxing environment. The garden area was a lovely place to unwind, and the overall atmosphere was serene and refreshing. The host was fantastic—friendly, responsive, and always ready to assist with any questions or recommendations. Their hospitality made the stay even more enjoyable. I highly recommend Oboe Gardenste to anyone visiting Grand Baie and looking for a relaxing and memorable experience. I would definitely stay here again!

The Ol Kalou Retreat
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.
