Homestays in Togo

"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!

"The owner is super friendly and gave loads of recommendations about Westport. Also gave us a lift into the city centre after greeting us 😁"

Not really any downside about the accommodation. A car is needed as you cant really walk from there into town, but there is on-site parking and taxi services.

"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.

"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.

"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

"Dichtbij het vliegveld, winkels op loopafstand. Mogelijkheid om te parkeren"

Geen lift, maar in ons geval niet nodig

"Schoon, goed contact met de verhuurder, privé deur was erg fijn, veel keukenspullen waar je gebruik van kon maken."

Aucun.

"De ligging is erg mooi, wel wat afgelegen maar de rust die dat geeft is erg prettig . Er is een hele goede kok, het eten was heerlijk ."

We misten lekkere stoelen om aan het meer te kunnen zitten. Ook was het vreemd dat de frisdrank in verhouding tot andere plaatsen erg duur was

"Ligging, de tuin, de hele sfeer rondom het huis en de leuk ingerichte kamer"

Aucun.

"Hosts were super friendly, very helpful and kind. Silvio gave me a ride back to airport when I arrived and needed to pick up my partner (we traveled separately there). The house and the room were nice and clean, huge fridge and well equipped kitchen for the guests to use. Netflix with guest account in the room was a nice extra. Big terrace with sunbeds. The location itself was lovely, locals were friendly and helpful as well. Airport is very close, 40 mins walk or 6 mins with the car."

I know it's not the hosts fault, because there was an issue with the pool due the construction works in the neighborhood the time we're staying there and we couldn't use it. Would have been nice, because the pool itself is pretty big.

"The view was absolutely stunning, and the service was truly excellent — the staff were friendly and attentive throughout our stay. The kitchen was very well-equipped with all the necessary appliances, which made everything so convenient. We also loved the swing and theres free horse riding experience provided. it was such a unique and enjoyable touch."

The only minor downsides were that the jacuzzi water wasn’t hot during our stay, and there were quite a number of bugs at night, so it was a bit difficult to sit outside for long. Overall, though, it was a wonderful experience and we really enjoyed our time there.

"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.

"Een heel aardige eigenaar van dit gloednieuwe hotel helpt je overal mee. Aardig, grappig en hulpvaardig. Koken mag, zelf koffie maken."

Niks

"We LOVE everything about the place!!! Emanuel, the host, is such a kind, hospitable and helpful person. He speaks fluent English and he’s always eager to help. The conditions are great, the beautiful house situated in a great location, the best staff, delicious food. HIGHLY recommend!"

"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"

"That’s amazing studio flat in a very nice hotel. It is sad that is sharing apartment, but you don’t share anything. You have your private bathroom, washing machine, private kitchen, private balcony, the only thing you share is one door to get to your flat. There are food shops and restaurants all around. Tram and bus stops very close. Metro station is about 1 km away, but you can take tram to get there, it takes two stops. Apartment was clean, nice clean white sheets, clean good towel, shampoo and hair conditioner. Security downstairs so you feel absolutely safe. Location is good for taking a walk by the marina to see yachts and a wonderful view to all buildings around. Wi-fi was good."

There is nothing in the kitchen, no spoons, no forks, no cups, no plates, absolutely empty. I had to buy a cup just to make coffee. Had to wait host for 1,5 hour. The main things to see are far away from the property, you need to take metro and ride 10-15 stops to see burj khalifa, the frame, future museum and ect. At least it’s one line. There was bad smell in the kitchen (can’t understand where it was coming from) had to keep balcony’s door open all the time. Very noisy street outside, cars and trams traffic all the time.

"The property is close to the beach and all the stores in whitehouse"

"Een oase van rust in een stad die nooit slaapt, met eenvoudige, maar nette kamers. Karima is enorm behulpzaam. En maakt de beste ontbijtjes."

Het is even een puzzel om door het labyrint van steegjes te komen. Volg de witte pijlen en je komt er vanzelf. Maar dat moet je even weten.

"The hosts are really helpful and very nice. It is so important to be able to get some help and tips, when you are travelling. What I really liked, was the breakfast, where all guests have the opportunity to meet. All of us really connected well and we had a fabulous old years eve together."

"Prachtige locatie, vlakbij Breede rivier. Uniek zicht, rustig. Verzorgd ontbijt en avondeten."

Ik verbleef in twee verschillende kamers: de loft 2 voor eerste dag en drie dagen in the cottage. The loft prima accommodatie, en keurige inrichting. The cottage: verouderd en heeft opknap beurt nodig: badkamer, douche, vloer en muren outdated en versleten. Sloten om binnen te komen in slechte staat.

"De villa was prachtig, heerlijk zwembad en verzorgend personeel."

De douche was gelijk de het toilet, waardoor je met douchen het hele toilet ook nat maakt, dat is niet ideaal natuurlijk

"Ivan und seine Schwester waren sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit! Vielen Dank"

Kein fließendes Wasser, kein Kühlschrank

"Nice cozy and clean accommodation with amazing view and surroundings. The location is just perfect. The owners are very friendly and go beyond your expectations. We really fell in love with the place. Highly recommended! Hope to come back one day :) lots of greetings from Czech republic"

"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

"Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour chez Karl et Wanda. Ce sont des personnes accueillantes, généreuses et authentiques, toujours prêtes à partager leur culture, les lieux à découvrir et la gastronomie locale. Le logement est très bien situé pour découvrir l’île et surtout Quel bonheur de prendre son café avec une vue aussi magnifique… Merci à Karl et Wanda !"

"Mama MIREKA highly recommend. She is such a beautiful host. House is immaculate yards are very tidy. Absolutely enjoyed our stay. loved listening to her speak of her children. the love in her eye's that that shows for her children and moko's that live in Aotearoa when speaking of them. As well as her belated husband. Thank you so much for everything and opening up your home and making us feel like family I will always remember the aroha that you have shown us whilst our visit to Rarotonga. I wish you nothing but the best. I hope anyone that books your house respects and appreciates you and your beautiful whare/ house that you work hard to maintain. If ever in Rarotoanga book this house. Meitaki maata."
