Our story

You arrive as a stranger.
You leave as family.

Five chapters, one story

From one great welcome to homes across Tanzania.

2018

Chapter 1 of 5

South Africa, 2018

A welcome we never forgot.

In 2018 we travelled to South Africa and were looked after so well that we kept talking about it long after we left. It did not feel like a booking. It felt like being expected.

Back in Tanzania

Why not do this at home?

On the way back we asked a simple question. Why should our own guests wait for that kind of care? We decided to give it to them, in our own way, with our own warmth.

Chapter 3 of 5

Morogoro

One bedroom, and a surprise.

We began humbly, with a single one bedroom apartment in Morogoro. We had not even finished furnishing it when the first guest booked it. That told us everything.

Morogoro, Dar es Salaam, Arusha, Zanzibar

Then the family grew.

More homes followed in Morogoro, then Dar es Salaam, Arusha and Zanzibar. Every one is kept the same way: clean, safe, quiet, and looked after by people who pick up when you call.

And beyond

There is room for more.

We are still growing, and we love our guests and the investors who trust us with their homes. The story is not finished. Perhaps the next chapter is yours.

The story continues with you.
