LION KING HOMESTAY
STORY

Stay in the Heart of African Life!

ABOUT THE PROPERTY.

The Lion King Homestay is a stately home of upper middle-class lifestyle of the African 80’s.

 

With a colourful past of vibrant family social celebrations, the 4-bedroom dwelling glimpses wealthy trappings of a more than modest family lifestyle.

 

Built in the 1980’s by a successful commodities importer and trader, the home was modern beyond its time boasting a built-in kitchen, complete with cabinetry and benchtops, opening onto a brightly inviting dining space and an even more elegant, large, open-living family space.

 

These areas and surrounding balconies, patio areas, gardens and lawns are all available for guest use, to be enjoyed at your leisure. Bathrooms are elegant with classic African tile décor.

Spacious rooms feature artisan made furnishings sourced from local craftspeople and businesses. Emphasis on earthy, handmade, natural or recycled. An authentic taste of African style.


Close to town but nestled amid family homes where day to day Tanzanian life plays out.

AUTHENTIC EXPERIENCES.

Experience the traditional lifestyle of Tanzania and immerse yourself in the local culture and the area’s history.

Representing excellent value for your holiday dollar, the Lion King Homestay has been thoughtfully styled to compliment your active Safari itinerary and exciting outdoor tour activities.

Steaming hot showers to wash over the spoils of adventures only Africa can bring, in private or shared bathrooms with your choice of western or traditional squat toilet.

All homed in classic African cultural style with authentic tribal features, natural, earthy, locally made furnishings in which to relax while enjoying a Serengeti Beer, freshly made local cheese and tantalising tastes of East Africa nibbles.
