We had a great stay at Steven and Dayness! Everyone was super friendly and helpful, from helping us buy our bus tickets for the following day to organizing transportation. The rooms were great, we had a whole apartment to ourselves, which was spacious and comfortable and had an amazing view over Lushoto. Would've loved to stay for more than just one night, if we come back to Lushoto, we'll definitly come here again!

Fanaka is a great host and the home stay is maintained very well. Everything is super clean and the small apartments are cute and also quite spacious. Fanaka also arranged a guided hike for me for the very next day. I can only recommend starting the hike to Mtae from here. I was also able to leave my luggage here without any extra payment and on my return day I also got some extra free breakfast. Especially the bread is quite delicious and a lot better than anything else you can really get in Tanzania. Also the view over Lushoto is quite nice.

“The homestay is very cozy and the host is very helpful!”
The little house is very nice and cozy. The host is very friendly and answers every single question. He organized a hike for us which was much cheaper than the offers in lushoto Centre. He also brought us some cookies and bananas in the afternoon which was very kind!
