We had such a wonderful time at Safari villa home, what an authentic and special place.They literally had me in tears as they embraced us with such a welcome.The story time in the evening while sharing meat. An unforgettable experience with a great Tanzanian history & culture This was an amazing visit. The location is phenomenal as it is settled in view of mount meru. The food was outstanding. Let’s not even talk about the room was magnificent and the relaxation that comes with it. The hospitality was great, this is a must come back place for me. Thank you

I didn’t expect such high standard in Tanzania. Starting from the quality of service, staff, food ending with the tents itself. There was everything we needed, tea/coffee set, delicious dinner a d breakfast, nice pool and wonderful staff. They have free transfer to the airport, it is around 7 mins by car

The property went above my expectations, it was almost a private villa you'd probably get nowhere in Arusha in that price range. Even my safari guide was puzzled as to how I discovered it. Don't let the lower number of reviews take you elsewhere, it opened in 2023. There's a private garden, lush and manicured with perfection, a balcony, two roof top terraces to enjoy 360deg view of the area and not to forget clear view of Mt Meru, and it's immaculately clean throughout the property. To top it off, the staff was the kindest and most helpful bunch of people, I was blown away by the hospitality of Walter and Jackson who helped me with SIM card, restaurant suggestions, even helping recovering our power bank we left at the SIM store. They made every efforts to make our stay memorable. Definitely coming back here if in Arusha next.

We definitely recommend OYA Guest House and can’t wait to come back on our next mission! The rooms were impeccably clean, the bed was the most comfortable of our entire journey, and the homemade food prepared by Jacky was exceptional. Most importantly, Jacky herself is the sweetest and most thoughtful host we encountered!

I really loved my stay here - Innocent is a great host, always going an extra mile to help or accommodate his guests. As it was my first time in Tanzania, he made it much easier for me to get used to it, helped arrange transportation, order food from delicious local restaurant etc. Also breakfast served was delicious!
