We stayed at Tumaini Home Stay for a short visit during our honeymoon, and it was absolutely perfect. Andy was an incredible host—his flawless English and warm personality made us feel right at home.
He went above and beyond to make our stay special, offering excellent local knowledge and being incredibly accommodating to our needs. Andy’s helpfulness and genuine care truly set this experience apart.
Our only regret is not staying one night. We wholeheartedly recommend Tumaini Home Stay to anyone looking for a memorable and welcoming place to stay. Andy is not just a great host—he’s a great person. 100% recommend
