Amazing experience

Pros: Amazing! This place is managed by Frank and his sister, which is well decorated by various plants and wooden furnitures. Full of African elements. All the staff are very friendly and optimistic. They provide delicious traditional Swahili meals for clients. The last day I left early for my international flight, they also offer me a breakfast box. Certainly I have fantastic experience in Serengeti Villa. Good choose for travelers coming to Arusha.

Cons: Everything is perfect!

Highly recommend to stay here when in Arusha!

Pros: Cozy oasis of calmness in an otherwise busy city. Frank and his family are amazing hosts, very friendly and always willing to help. The rooms are spacious and clean, and the food is amazing and comes in big portions. Overall this is a great place to stay! We would definitely come back here if we are in Arusha again.

Cons: The shower doesn’t have a curtain so the whole bathroom gets pretty wet after a shower, minor detail but could be improved.

You will feel right at home!

A peaceful oasis!

Pros: Would highly recommend Serengeti Villa, it’s a little peaceful oasis in Arusha! The atmosphere is very friendly, staff are great, rooms were comfortable, there were even some very cute and friendly cats. Each night they have a bonfire and there’s a small bar. We joined for one dinner there which was delicious and vegetarian friendly. The accommodation is a bit of a walk to the centre of town, but it’s incredibly cheap and easy to get a Tuktuk in.

Cons: Rooms aren’t very sound proofed but as guests are going to safari / hiking, it was always quiet, so this wasn’t an issue.
