At the hostel, each room comes with a wardrobe. Every room comes with a safety deposit box and some rooms are equipped with garden views. At Kiwavi Home each room is equipped with bed linen and towels.

Everything about this little oasis is PERFECT. It is a beautiful home and you are made to feel like family. Momma Jackie is one of the most amazing women who will feed you breakfasts that will blow your mind. Simba is a SUPER man. (Even the dog gives you love) The grounds are gorgeous; the home is cozy and the private room was great. Highly recommend! My room was well maintained; you can use the kitchen; Simba organized my taxi to leave. 5 stars of awesomeness.

The food was amazing! The views of Kilimanjaro and Meru were outstanding! And we had such a beautiful waterfall hike and extra camping experience! Such a relaxing place, and incredibly friendly and helpful staff! We absolutely loved the option to camp right outside the park border, highly highly recommended!

The guest house offers certain units with garden views, and the units come with a private bathroom.

For guests with children, the guest house features outdoor play equipment. Both a bicycle rental service and a car rental service are available at Tulivu Kilimanjaro Retreat.

A beatiful oasis I didn't expect! I was there last August and I was solo traveling. The place is marvelous! The common spaces are one of their strenghts: perfect to chill and relax. Food was delicious and big quantity, but if I had to choose just one thing, it should be the staff: always smiling and helpful. If I'm coming back to Moshi, for sure I'll come again to this cozy place, so I recommend you to do the same!

    The homestay is located in a quiet location just outside Moshi. Tuktuks can be used as an inexpensive way to get around and are readily available. The accommodation was excellent super comfy bed, lovely lounge area and beautiful garden. Breakfast was amazing and varied daily. The host was the most friendly I've ever met in all my years of travel. His motivation is to make every traveller's experience memorable and stress free. Can't recommend this place enough.

    We really enjoyed our stay here. It's located in a clean, quiet, suburban area of Moshi. There are a number of restaurants nearby. It's only a 7 minute Bajaj ride into town (3000 TZS). Walter is a great host. He went out of his way to make our stay comfortable. We had a lovely cooked breakfast prepared for us every day and the entire place is spotlessly clean. If you're looking for somewhere outside the craziness of Moshi, we'd definitely recommend staying here!

    Peter is a great host, he is always keen to help and offers to show us around. E.g he helped us getting a SIM card, a bajaj and helped with the bustimes. We felt very safe and the place felt like home! On top of that there is an amazing kili view from the front garden, the rooms and sanitary are very hygienic and the breakfast is so good. The bedroom was very big and the mattress was comfortable.

    Lovely ambiance in a quiet neighborhood at walking distance (20min) from the centre. Try to book the cottage, good value for money! Host has good connections to organize trips and transfers. Breakfast is ok, they also own a good restaurant at the border of the city with views on the Kilimanjaro 💛

    Property had everything you need. Room was clean, comfortable with en-suite and toiletries provided. Breakfast was exceptional and personally prepared by Far. Far is a great host and can arrange anything for you: taxis, tours, services and local facilities. A little out of town but in a quiet area and only a short ride to anywhere. Wi-Fi was via hot spot due to some current problems with internet provider. Thank you Far for a great stay and for welcoming us to your family village. A very special experience.

    Virtually unlimited coffee.Hearty mixed breakfast. Simba,the host,made me feel supremely welcome,assisted me with helpful phonecalls after my tour initially let me down.Found comfortable nearby accomodation for me when his was booked out and found a cheap reliable taxi for my sudden departure. Location is walkable distance to the town while providing a quiet retreat away from it at the same time.Really enjoyed my stay here.
