Expérience inoubliable

Vous pouvez choisir un hôtel classique pour les touristes ou mettre de côté certains standards pour vivre une expérience immergée dans un village authentique auprès d'une famille locale. Dès votre arrivée, Teresa, Nelson et leur personnel vous donneront cette impression d'être à la maison. Je n'ai pas de mots pour décrire leur sens de l'accueil, que nous avons peut-être perdu depuis si longtemps chez moi en Europe. Au coeur de la Tanzanie, pour un budget ridicule. Navettes depuis l'aéroport sans soucis, communication efficace et rapide.

The place was perfect for a rest day for our family before safari. We particularly enjoyed Eliya’s delicious meals, tour

The house was very spacious and comfortable. The back garden and gazebo was wonderful!

There were no portable fans only ceiling fans in the bedrooms

Nette, authentische, preiswerte Unterkunft

Authentisch, freundlich und hilfsbereit

Wurden leider durch diverse Geräusche (Ruf zum Morgengebet, Glockengeläut und Tiere) diverse male in den frühen Morgenstunden aufgeweckt - besser mit Oropax schlafen, da in den Gebäuden praktisch keine Schallisolierung vorherrscht.

Super!

Sehr nette und zuvorkommende Mitarbeiter (inkl. Hilfe beim Kaufen einer Sim-Karte), Transfer vom Flughafen lief reibungslos und das Essen war köstlich.

Prisvärt och mycket lyhörd personal.

Ett charmigt ställe som passar perfekt om man vill bo nära flygplatsen, ca 25 minuter.

Om man är känslig för ljud så kan bilarna höras endel.

Wow! Wow! Wow!

Das Essen ist sehr, sehr gut. Die Zimmer sind großzügig und gemütlich eingerichtet. Aber am besten sind die Mitarbeitenden. Das ganze Personal ist herzlich und freundlich, besonders der Besitzer Nelson und seine Frau. Wir waren an meinem Geburtstag da und ich habe sogar einen Kuchen bekommen!

Exceptional

Beautiful location to relax. Most travellers stay there only one night. We stayed 2 nights and it was too less. Nelson and Teresa, the owners take good care of you. They can organise tours and transfers. Elia and Cliff took us for a nice walk around the village (free of charge, included in the price).

Superb

Lovely charming staff - we were welcomed with fruit juice on arrival and shown around the property. Great garden setting. Choice of rooms. Very comfortable bed. Spacious bathroom. Pristinely clean everywhere. Super bar/dining room area. Transfers organised by hotel and very efficient.

The business was fairly new, and is clearly going to be very successful, but one thing that could be improved in the future would be proper doors to the bathroom rather than curtains.

Amazing service!

Our stay was Amazing! We fixed a taxi from the hotel to pick us up and bring us to the hotel. When we arrived they welcomed us with a fresh watermelon juice. The family and crew working there are so heart warming it feels like family. No question is asked too much for them. The owner helped us a lot with planning trips and taxi’s. And the food is So good. Even the serving is done with so much passion. They ask you how late you want your breakfast, lunch and dinner they are really flexible with that. Dinner is $15 pp and it is totally worth it! They also have a little shop to buy some souvenirs and there is WiFi in the dining area. We stayed in the Matope hut for a week and it has all the basics you need. We totally recommand it to others!

The stay was pleasant and comfortable. The food was amazing!!

This property is a proper homestay. The family is very nice and accommodating. The rooms and bathroom are clean and comfortable.

The power did go off for long stretches of time. This is normal for the area. They had solar lights that helped. The property isn’t as close to the stay as I thought. It’s about a 40 minute drive from the homestay.

I really enjoyed my stay and loved the family-run, hospitable experience!

I really enjoyed the uniqueness of each of the rooms. The family that runs Charming is amazing. Very kind, friendly and helpful. When we arrived they welcomed us in with glasses of fresh juice. They have two young kids who were so lovely and sociable and played with my kids while we were there. Everyone's english was quite good so there wasn't a concern there. The outdoor restaurant was lovely and they have a small gift area where you can purchase items from local artisans, which was a nice touch. They put great care into their meals and I thought they were delicious. On our last day, they offered a walking tour (for free) of the immediate area. We felt quite safe at Charming as it was fenced with a large gate and guard dogs were let out at night.

We spoke to the owner about a few improvements that could be made. He was very open about wanting to hear our suggestions. Shelves in the bathrooms would be very helpful as well as wall mounted fans in the rooms (to help with mosquitos and air circulation) and an end table beside each bed (our room had one end table with two beds). The free Wifi became an issue as the week progressed as we used it heavily and it ran out. We had five adults in our group and we all needed to work while we were there. In hindsight, I would have talked to them about it in advance to see what could be arranged. There is a mosque nearby (which we were aware as I had read all of the reviews in advance) and the early morning prayers at 4:30-5am were hard for me to ignore so I used ear plugs which helped to be able to sleep through. A leak in the bathroom was addressed quickly.

Lovely stay! Kind and friendly hosts, safe, clean and delicious home cooked meal!

Most friendly and kind hosts and Jacob is a great cook, made us a lovely dinner after a long day on the road. Very safe and quiet!

No sign posts and not able to locate with google maps. They were very helpful and send someone to the nearby petrol station, to guide us to the property.

Just very basic

Friendly staff, welcome drink, comfortable bed.

There was nothing special about the place, room was very basic, dark, cold,with insufficient lighting, no shelves. Dinner was overpriced, not worthy 15 USD per person. Trying to pirch rhe breakfast a three course breakfast, where one course is jam and toast was ridiculous.

Excellent!

Stayed overnight with my husband to leave to the airport the following day. Host was attentive and very friendly. The food is amazing. Breakfast was included but we decided to purchase lunch best decision ever. A 3 course meal was freshly prepared. Service was spectacular felt like I was at a 5 star hotel. Cabin was clean and had everything necessary. Will be leaving fully rested and with a happy tummy lol!

Quintisential East Africa. Verandah overlooking garden to have a cool beer and lovely evening meal prepared by chef to your specific needs .

Call to prayer woke us up early morning, but that could happen anywhere, not just this property.

Great food&sweet helpful proprietors

The chef Elias is excellent. Breakfast and Dinner were delicious with really fresh vegetables and nice spicing. Coffee was excellent( but no cream available). Internet and hot water was hit or miss and credit card machine was down….after advertising pay by card. However, staff was nice and ran interference with pick up by travel company. Lovely garden and sweet dog. Very clean for a rustic accommodation.

Not functioning: Pay by credit card Internet Hot water for shower

a Great Stay

the rooms are very nice, eco friendly, food is very good and not expensive, breakfast is also good, great owner and staff

needs more light in the room, at night we had to use our torch to see in the room insect nets should be put with the window and also above the door and a lot of mosquitoes come in.

Bad

The staff is amazing. Very kind and helpful. Good food.

You can't even imagine how dirty and cheap everything is. Not by European standards but by African standards. All is made only for profit here. 0 investment. Brown towels (they used to be white), dirty sheets with a lot of stains. Broken mattress. And a lot more.. (taxi also very expensive. They want to rip off tourists from everywhere. Is 40 USD here. We found one with 25 USD)

Wonderful stay ☺️

The host and his spouse were very kind and welcoming. the hut I was staying at was very cute. Dinner area was very cozy, and dinner and breakfast were amazing. I had an issue with local bank and hosts kindly offered to go there together and I appreciated it a lot. Overall it was a pleasure to stay here ☺️

Perfect place to start/end your Tansania-Holidays

Really friendly people, the place with the lovely garden, the food and our room/hut was really nice, we enjoyed our stay very much.

In the night/early morning we got waked up by dogs, later the church bells and the Imam.

Nice place, great restaurant, but prices to be reviewed

We had a very warm welcome and the staff was kind and available to support us. The dinner and breakfast were delicious and very well presented. The restaurant service was also excellent.

We came back from 3 days of trekking and just wanted to have a good shower. Unfortunately there was a power blackout so for the entire afternoon we didn't have electricity neither hot water. We had to take a quick cold shower and we're not proposed a compensation for that :( The room is ok but very basic and the bathroom not very functional. The linen are old and consumed. Definitely overpriced compared to other lodges we have done in the same area. They advertise to be close to the airport but the price to get there is the same than if you were in Arusha (40 USD), which we found absolutely no sense for a 30min drive in car smelling exhaust smoke.
