“Beautifully tranquil home in the north east of Moshi with wonderful staff and an amazing breakfast.”
+I truly loved Kiwavi Home. The staff (and the other guests) were some of the nicest people I have met and very accommodating. I left/entered the home very late at night several times (I was in Moshi for a wedding and the all the events ended late at night), but they stayed up to open the gate for me each time, which I am very grateful for. When I was leaving, I wasn't planned to leave until 8pm, so they let me stay in the room until my car came as no-one had booked the room for that night, which was very kind. Beyond this, the room (single room with bathroom) itself was clean and had towels, a mosquito net, hand soap and spare toilet roll. I stayed for about 5 nights and they came in to clean twice, which was nice. Aside from this, the food was amazing. You had breakfast every day with great coffee and a selection of fruits and different dishes each day to try. If you paid extra and gave advanced warning, you could also have dinner at the home, which consisted of a HUGE spread of different and really tasty local dishes all cooked from scratch that day (I would 100% stay again even just for the food!). The home is a little far from some of the main parts of the city, but this means
−The only small thing I would suggest is making an information booklet to leave in the room so guests know about laundry, contact details for entering/leaving very early or late and dinner.

“Kiwavi Home is gorgeous and I’d highly recommend! Stayed only for a few days but it was such a warm welcome to Tanzania.”
+Everyone working there is so friendly! Breakfasts were lovely. There is a cat, dog and tortoise which create such a homely feel.
−It was a little loud as the rooms are close to the dining area.

“A great place to stay at!”
+If you’re gonna be in the Kilimanjaro area, this is the place to stay at! Me and my two sons had a wonderful stay at Kiwavi Home. Simba is very welcoming and friendly and can always help you with any question you have whether it’s things to do and see around Moshi, how to get around or how to get a good price in the market :) The breakfast is amazing! It’s also nice that you have a kitchen you can use together with others and other rooms that are shared, in that way you have the chance to talk to other people from all over the world! Thank you Simba and crew for a great stay.

+Sehr gemütlich dort. Man Frühstückt herrlich draußen mit Gästen aus aller Welt gemeinsam an einem Tisch direkt neben einem liebevoll gepflegten Garten. Es ist einfach gemütlich dort. Das Frühstück ist abwechslungsreich und lecker. Die Mitarbeiter sind sehr aufmerksam, hilfsbereit und welcoming. Ich habe mich sehr wohl gefühlt.

+徒步乞力马扎罗下山，带着满身尘灰与疲惫走进，店主及员工面带温暖的微笑治愈了我的痛楚。 得知第二天一大早要去safari,连忙安慰会例外的提前准备好早餐让我不必担心。 第二天一早，Paul已等着并帮忙将晾晒的衣服收拾好，太感谢了！

“Fantastische Unterkunft. Kann ich nur empfehlen. Super Gastgeber.”
+Die Unterkunft ist fantastisch. Das Frühstück ist hervorragend. Das Haus ist geschmackvoll eingerichtet, sehr sauber, gemütliche Atmosphäre. Der Garten hat mir auch gut gefallen. Das Bett war bequem, ruhig und dunkel in der Nacht. Die Gastgeber Joy und Simba waren immer für mich und die anderen Gäste da.
−Nicht. Es war alles super.
