Reviews 232+ From Tripadvisor

A perfect welcome to Tanzania — Arusha Villa Arusha Villa was the ideal place to begin our Tanzania trip, and we can’t recommend it highly enough for anyone arriving on a late-night flight. We landed at Kilimanjaro International Airport at around 1 AM local time after nearly 24 hours of travel from California, exhausted and honestly a little anxious about how a middle-of-the-night arrival in a new country would go. It could not have gone more smoothly. Our driver was waiting for us as promised, the drive to Arusha was about an hour and completely comfortable, and by the time we arrived at the villa the staff made us feel genuinely welcome — even at that hour. The rooms were secure, quiet, and beautifully appointed. The beds were incredibly comfortable — exactly what we needed after such a long journey — and there was plenty of hot water, which was a small but wonderful thing after so many hours of flying.

A Beautiful Retreat Arusha Villa was the first stop on our trip to Tanzania and we spent a couple of nights there to refresh from the long flights before we set out on our safari. The villa is absolutely gorgeous and so peaceful. Its size means that you never feel crowded and there is plenty of relaxation to be had. The food was all absolutely delicious, sourced locally, and it's the ideal place to sit, enjoy the quiet, rest, and spot a monkey or two.
