"Kaliwa lodge is 1hr from airport & Mt Kili walking points. You must arrange transport with lodge to go anywhere as the lodge is very isolated. Located amongst banana plantation down a very bumpy dirt road. Lodge is surrounded by walls and is secure. The lodge has a garden courtyard with rooms around yard. Large deck overlooking a green valley and Mt Kilimanjaro.
Room & ensuite is functional with adequate space. Dated modern decor, large netted comfy bed, good hot water & WiFi. Dinner was good &...
"Great place to get ready to hike Kili or go on a safari. Not 5 star but pretty nice - decent food, great service and ready to please. Good wifi and hot water! Lots of people going coming from Kili!"
"I really enjoyed spending time at this hotel. The staff are very welcoming and wonderful people to be around. The staff made sure that I had a shuttle to go around town and a safe way to get there, had a secure place to store the remaining luggage, and they made delicious food for breakfast and at the restaurant. I would highly recommend to stay at the Stella Maris Lodge."
"Rigtig hyggeligt hotel, med en god historie, retro look. Rent og fint. God traditionel mad, i rigelige portioner. Fantastisk beliggenhed med flotte udsigter. "
"It's one of the best hotels I've stayed at - gorgeous property, perfect for a feeling of luxury before or after a tiring hike or safari. The staff is very attentive and food is great. "
"The host Patricia welcomes you into the property like you were family. She and the staff are generous and were happy to help - even when we had some surprise changes to our itinerary. What a wonderful quiet place just on the edge of town, truly an excellent way to wrap up our time in Tanzania."

"I had a wonderful stay.
The staff were endlessly courteous, friendly and helpful.
The location in the middle of Moshe was great. It is a great location for walking around the town.
The roof top bar was a joy to sit at and see the sunset and mount kilimanjaro.
The food was delicious and beautifully served "
"VERY NICE PLACE. BUNGALOW TYPE ROOMS. VERY CLEAN. GREAT POOL AND GOOD FOOD AT THE RESTAURANT. VERY FRIENDLY FRONT DESK. PATRICIA AND QUEEN IN THE RESTAURANT WERE VERY NICE AND ATTENTIVE. AMEG IS A BIT OFF THE BEATEN PATH, BUT TUK TUK'S AND CABS ARE EASY TO GET. COULD SEE KILIMANJARO FROM THE GROUNDS. I WOULD STAY AGAIN."
"I stayed one night upon arrival to Moshi. I was warmly greeted late at night. Check in was super easy. They take a copy of your passport. My room - even though I’d booked a single - was much larger and had a double & single beds. Room was clean and tidy with enough plugs for charging your gadgets. There were toiletries including toothbrushes, soap, shampoo & lotion. Breakfast was included and I even got a nice chef-made omelette. They have a nice sitting area by the pool or you can sit inside. The lodge is quiet and the staff is very friendly and helpful. I wasn’t sure how to get the hot water to work but to me the water was lukewarm. Good enough for a quick cleansing. "
"There were 16 of us staying here over 4 days and we had such a great stay! The rooms were comfortable, the food excellent, the pool is nice, and the staff were fantastic! They made us feel so welcomed. Jackie went out of here way to help us with excursions and Godfrey, Betha, Judy and the other staff were so kind. I highly recommend staying here and we hope to be back again! "
"This is a hidden gem and I highly recommend Shose if you are in the Moshi area. Starting with the warm welcome from Benson at the front desk to the wonderful service and great recommendations for dinner from our waiter Ismail, we were very pleased with choosing Shose Farmhouse! We were 2 couples and all agreed that the rooms and bathrooms were clean and spacious and the bed super comfortable! Also enjoyed a hot soak in the outdoor tub on the balcony overlooking green fields and Mt. Kilimanjaro in the distance! A special thank you to Benson who arranged for my iphone left mistakenly in the taxi arranged by the hotel, to be returned to me! "
