This is such a perfect place if you want to experience genuine local life in a beautiful town. This place is in a gorgeous setting- the forest around is just incredible with so many different plants. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. We did a tour with a family member (Baraka) to the waterfall and loved it- he shared lots of local knowledge and history with us. We also did the coffee experience and highly recommend it. Everyone we met was so friendly and welcoming. I would love to come back and spend more time here.

Great location in a quiet, green, peaceful area with some good restaurants walking distance or just 5 minutes away (2000 TNS) by motorbike ride from the supermarket, ATMs and the noisy center. Nice big rooms, comfy beds, clean all around, good filling breakfast and fast WiFi. Also the ventilators are a nice touch in case it gets hot but mostly you don't need them as it cools down during the night. Peter is an amazing host, you feel like home but also helped a lot to organise things including finding the best deal to hike Kili and renting missing mountain equipment. I feel lucky to have stayed here. Would come again :) Asante Sana!

A haven of peace. This is really the best place i stayed in tanzania, I would have stayed longer if i could. The breakfast was awesome. Simba also arranged me a tour to the waterfalls for a very good price and got me the best coffee in town.

    Beautiful location set in the village about a km from Marangu gate. Close to a waterfall for swimming and at night a welcoming fire to sit by. Food was great and plentiful. Lots of trails to explore in the area and the opportunity to hike Kilimanjaro for a day hike or to the top. To get to the home stay you can go by boda boda or taxi from marangu town/bus station; the roads to the village are very rough. Staff and host did everything to make our stay very pleasurable. Thank you.

    The homestay from Amadeus is a magical place. You feel very welcome and it is the perfect place to arrive or unwind. We loved it here. The Cook Ignaz deserves another 5 stars. His cuisine is fantastic, authentic and fresh. If you want to take a very special piece of Africa with you, you should definitely book here. We will come back!
