Homestays in Botswana

"My stay at this guest house was absolutely fantastic! The host was excellent, very kind, and provided a lot of detailed advice before my trip, which was incredibly helpful. Staying in a whole house was great! The location allowed me to spend very quiet and comfortable nights. It was conveniently situated close to the coastal road and within easy walking distance. When I travel to Tonga again, I will definitely choose to stay here! Highly recommend."

"Super kind and helpful hosts (speak Spanish, English and French). Very big and well equipped rooms, hammocks and comfy seats to relax in the tropical garden, with various plants and trees... A restaurant just next door and a supermarket in short walking distance... only 15min to the airport... Very comfy bed and warm water shower... Would highly recommend this place!"

"Staff were really helpful and kind, helping us find the Gare Routiere and sending the location of the hotel itself. Ziguinchor is a small town anyway but everything was in walking distance. Very quiet and comfortable. Excellent value for money"

"De fietsen waren in goede staat! Eten met lekker glas rode wijn was lekker. Het personeel was wel vriendelijk en de pick up aan de ferry met de scooters is een leuke ervaring."

De eigenaar was enkel beschikbaar via Whatsapp. Dit was heel jammer want van een homestay had ik verwacht dat er een conversatie (ook al is het met behulp van een vertalingsapp) mogelijk is in vivo voor o.a. onze volgende stappen te boeken. Zeker gezien Grab met taxi’s er niet is. Alleen scooters wat niet handig is met twee kinderen en onze rugzakken. Het zwembad dat je op de foto’s ziet is niet in de homestay zelf en een extra kost.

"Location next to beach and mall suitable for family"

shampoo and conditioner..

"Lovely home in great location. More breakfast options would have been good"

More breakfast options

"el lugar fue muy lindo, la vista espectacular, el trato y la calidez de Aisha, la administradora y dueña fue excelente"

me gusto todo

"Zeer vriendelijke ontvangst. Attent en uitgebreid gefacoliteerd, met fruit, thee, koffie en water met iets lekkers"

De locatie, is boven aan de heuvel, met een gewone fiets een pittige klim

"Przyjemny i wygodny pokój z kuchnią, łazienką i osobnym wejściem. Właścicielka bardzo miła."

"Schone kamer en een mooie tuin met zwembad. Helena was erg gastvrij! We hebben een heel fijn verblijf gehad."

"This is an excellent small guesthouse and the hosts are extremely friendly and helpful. Everything was clean and comfortable. The area is very quiet and Bahir Dar is one of the most beautiful cities in Africa. The hosts, Ashenafi and Habtamu, showed us around and made us feel very welcome."

This is a new guesthouse and they are still getting all the facitilties that a western tourist would expect, but everything important was there including shower, cooking facilities, chairs and tables in the patio and a barbeque!

"O sr. Armindo é super atencioso, a comunicação foi excelente, cama confortável, bom banho, tudo limpo. Local agradável, a repetir!"

"We had a truly great stay at Vila Davor, Turistička 8- Peštani. The location is phenomenal, at least in our case with small children, because the apartment is less than 10 meters from the private beach with sunbeds. In same house there is a beach bar and kayak and sup board rental. There is a supermarket and several restaurants of national cuisine nearby. As for sightseeing, the entire area around the lake and the Galicica National Park are a 15-20 minute drive away. The host is pleasant and ready to help in any way that would make the stay more pleasant (cheers Mishko). The house is a little bit older, but the apartment is clean and tidy. The kitchen is shared and with basic things as it is noted in the offer so that is not a complaint. It is a bit more difficult to park if you have a large vehicle, but the host can find you a safe and large parking lot in the immediate vicinity. And the biggest plus at least for us- they are pet friendly."

"We liked the location and that it was overall comfortable"

We were just abit surprised in the beginning that it was a shared house....so maybe just a clearer description online

"Seneng banget menginap di sini. Unitnya sangat strategis kemanapun, staffnya juga ramah dan sigap dalam melayani tamu. Kalau ke malioboro juga bisa berjalan kaki. Nyari spot kuliner juga mudah"

"Very nice and special place, 15 min from the town (it's a beautiful walk along the beach). Placed tight at the beach. Very beautiful common areas with a great unique vibe. Eggs, onions and garlic for cooking available, coffee too. Andres is always around, very nice and helpful. Great atmosphere. Beautiful stars in the night."

You can only charge your electronic devices if you give them to Andres (which is easy enough though because he is around a lot). And it's understandable given the location of the hostel.

"Great location and very clean. The owner and staff are absolutely fantastic and make sure that the guests feel like at home. Would have loved to stay here longer."

"Malaki and his family were great hosts! Very helpful and friendly. Sorted out lots of things for us with no fuss, even though we booked last minute and had limited planning. We had some good laughs! Good view of volcano, and hear the rumbling! Simple and authentic ni-Van accommodation."

Malaki still had a few things to finish... eg switching for solar lights and some plumbing... but we were 2nd guests, so it will be more complete for next guests

"Amanda and Sabine were excellent hosts giving us free access to kitchens and other facilities. They both spoke excellent English."

Dumbea sur Mer is basically a boring suburb of McMansion houses and a shopping mall.

"This was our second stay, but in the bigger villa. There is plenty of space for everyone to spread out and relax. Having everything we needed right there was super convenient. Definitely made the whole trip smoother and more enjoyable. Can't wait to come back again sometime."

Leaving the island.

"Je kan hier van alles: wassen, activiteiten etc. De kamers zijn ruim en de gemeenschappelijke ruimten ook. Ook is de host heel erg behulpzaam en denkt met je mee."

De locatie is matig. De host bedoelt het goed maar af en toe was het een beetje te meedenkend en aanwezig. Daarnaast was het jammer dat gedurende ons verblijf alle activiteiten die we wilden doen niet door konden gaan door ziekte/feestdag. Dan zit je in de middle of nowhere zonder dat je iets kan doen.

"We vacationed here in March 2026. We came here for the sea of ​​stars, but we'll be back to experience the hosts' hospitality, the privacy, and the tranquility of this beautiful island. We felt very comfortable staying in this house, surrounded by the care and attention of the entire host family."

"The room was great and very spacious. The homeowner is super nice and easy to talk to."

The only thing that slightly annoyed me on arrival was that there wasn’t an electrical socket right next to the bed, even though it did say that on the booking site. But that’s a small thing.
