Homestays in Côte d'Ivoire

"A short walk to Oistin fish market area. Clean room and private bathroom. It was like staying with old friends. The entire home was available to be lived in."

Not a thing

"The apartment is in the attic of a family villa. It is easily accessible by the metro line B and by car, too. The apartment is equipped with the microwave, electric kettle and the fridge, it also has a Wi-Fi and TV. The room is spacious enough it can comfortably accommodate up to four people, or even five if necessary. The furniture and the bedding is in the good condition. Actually, the property has more than one apartment and the amenities in the others might differ. The owner is friendly and promptly replies to messages."

To reach the apartment you have to climb several very steep flights of stairs, which is not safe when you're carrying a large suitcase. Our bathroom was in the hallway, but it could be locked and everything was new and clean there. The door to the apartment is rather thin so you can hear are the guests if they talk in the corridor or in their apartment. Still, these inconveniences a minor and do not spoil overall positive impression from the apartment especially considering its price.

"The property was beautiful and the staff was amazing. It was a beautiful oasis to relax in, after an action packed few days on safari. I would definitely come back! There are however a few minor issues with cleanliness, there are fingerprints round light switches and on the walls which aren’t typically seen in lodgings of that caliber. It does give a bit of the ick to see that."

For the love of all that is Holy add a door to the room with the open concept bathroom. It’s an otherwise perfect room and we appreciated it very much but for the price of the room, add a door.

"Daisy and Stephen are extraordinary hosts, we can't thank them enough!!!"

"I loved the family hosting so much. They were so helpful, friendly and supportive. So very accommodating. My friend had some crazy blisters from a previous hike and the daughter in the family helped bandage them - and Oscar also tried to let her use his hiking boots. We also helped cook dinner and ate with the family which was a very meaningful experience for us. We loved every second. Best hostel experience in our 2-3 weeks in South America."

Nothing could have been better

"The host and her granddaughter who helped with my stay were amazing. The host picked me up in the city and brought me to St Marys and again to the airport in the morning. The traffic was terrible leaving Quito, I felt sorry for the host dealing with it. I was a little concerned that the dogs and other guests might continue making noise throughout the night but that wasn't the case. You are certainly aware of your proximity to the airport as you can hear planes over head. The 'village' is spotlessly clean and well maintained."

I wish there gad been an option to pay with credit card, but I get it.

"Todo ...el luga,r la ubicación, la anfitriona Angela , muy amable servicial volveremos sin pensarlo"

"The location was very beautiful, in the countryside with a magnificent view of the greenery. The breakfast and dinner were excellent, and the hostess was very friendly. The room was spacious, as was the shared kitchen. There is also a seating area outside."

There wasn't always (hot) water, but that was resolved well.

"It's a beautiful old building in an exceptional location, just around Mufu Palace. Our room was big and very comfortable, with a great view of the courtyard, a great shower and a big and very comfy bed. The room, and the bed, are very well heated. The room was also quiet and with good curtains. The staff were over the top, extremely friendly and helpful, offering us tea whenever we came back (and when we first arrived, which was a very nice touch), in particular, Julia, who was always there for us for whatever we would need. We're very grateful to her and all the staff at the hotel."

The breakfast could be better.

"Friendly staff, good breakfast. Very chill vibe. In a quieter area. Spacious rooms. Can purchase beer/water/soda on site. Host was quick to respond to questions."

There were some power outages, but that is expected in norther Peru, so it's the whole town. Mosquitos (so brink bug repellent).

"Jay being very hospitable!!!! If you are looking for a comfortable place to stay with no frills this is the place!! Very clean. Beach and bar at the end of the street."

If we had a chance to stay longer

"Meeting the real Fijian and being part of their daily life was an amazing experience. They are so warm, friendly and helpful. Thank you Sarah,Male and all Malakati people! The coral reef, just off the shore, an enormously long beach, only for us and locals, stays always in our memory. Vinaka!"

It would be good if the toilet and "shower" was clean...

"Very pleased with the communication before arrival, and upon arrival we felt welcome. The room is spotlessly clean and has everything necessary. Room size is good: with one double bed and one single bed still enough space to walk and put luggage. The yard is cozy and each room has a little terrace to eat outside."

"A true homestay with warm hospitality and amazing facilities at the 7th floor. Located close to a MRT station, restaurants, shops and several green recreational areas."

For me, having visited the Singapore tourism highlights on a previous visit, it was not an issue at all, but good to be aware that those highlights take a bit of time to get to. Also good to be aware you are welcomed into an actual home while the owners are living there. It's part of the charm.

"It had a family room vibe, and I really enjoyed that. The host was friendly, and accomodated me. Will visit it again, surely."

"* Staff: They were kind and helpful. * Facilities: The apartment was large. The kitched had the things one may need. The wi-fi and hot water was good. * Cleanliness: The apartment was clean. * Comfort: It was comfortable. * Location: The neighbourhood is quiet, peaceful and safe. You can have a beautiful city view as apartment is located on a hill. It was about 30 minutes walk to the city centre. It was safe to walk. Yet, I do not recommend to walk back from city centre as the road is very steep. Even though the distance on the map does not seem much, it becomes a cardio exercise to walk. So, I would recommend taking the bus or taxi to return back."

"Great location, very clean, lovely caretakers. This place is easy and uncomfortable. My room had optional air conditioning for an additional eight dollars, I was quite comfortable just with a fan. This place is lovely and quiet, if you’re looking to party in your room, this is probably not for you. additional conveniences include free, unlimited, cold bottled water to drink, washing machine/ clothes dryer available at a reasonable price."

No reservations, this place is a go

"All went on well, I had a team of 10 from Uganda. We had a great time. The breakfast was great, and the place is close to the beach, just a 3 minute walk to the Beach front."

"Location Staff Home style and very friendly Free coffee use of kitchen and comfortable lounge sofas Fridge and deep freeze available. Tv in all rooms . Lovely garden to wonder around . Good wifi"

Leaving

"Roomy, bright, immaculately clean. Bulbul and her family were welcoming, helpful at every turn. They provided a delicious and hearty breakfast. We were treated to beautiful dombra music and the harmonious voices of family friends in a small concert the first evening."

"The room and house were very clean and tidy. The owner was nice and friendly, and the neighborhood was nice too. Murphy's Pub was a very good place to eat and located close by."

This is probably pretty minor, but the beds were just okay, and they were on wheels so they moved around some in the night when I turned over. But over all, everything was nice.

"Location. Superb access to wadi Shab and located right off the highway. Friendly staff. Simple but hearty breakfast. Clean comfortable beds and showers/bathrooms that all worked well. Wonderful view of the ocean from the balcony terrace."

Just a little old and “simple” but it’s all a question of expectations- this is not the Sheraton or Grand Hyatt. It has a rustic, no-nonsense vibe and does the job when you are mainly focussed on the outdoors, the nature

"This is our second time there, Eve is very friendly."

all good.

"A very friendly and tidy place, good value for money, comfortable beds, in walking distance to everywhere. We would return!"

"Breakfast was not part of the deal, but was invited to either a lunch or dinner three (!) times. Congenial conversation, great atmosphere. Alain gave me a guided tour of the city, again something that is not a standard part of a BnB deal."

"Ely is super helpful and nice, the property is in the middle of the island so gives you privacy and is very quiet and good for relaxing. The kitchen has everything you need, I just cooked my breakfast there but pretty sure you can cook your daily 3-5 meals. The terrace space is beautiful for reading, chill and to see the new year fireworks :)"

Is walking distance from the beach, no issues for me but can be for some visitors. Gives a contrast from the tourist vs local lifestyle cause you are in the middle of the island, unfortunately local side is dirty :/

"I recently stayed at this beautiful studio in Nuweiba and I cannot recommend it enough! The location is stunning, with breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains and the Red Sea. The studio itself is spacious, clean, and beautifully decorated, with all the amenities you could need. The private garage and overall privacy was definitely a highlight for me - it was the perfect place to relax and soak up the sun. The host and. eighbouts were incredibly welcoming and attentive, ensuring that we had everything we needed throughout our stay. Overall, I had an amazing experience and would highly recommend this studio to anyone looking for a luxurious and peaceful getaway in Nuweiba" the best host I have encountered during my travels, friendly, accommodating and checks in all your needs, Khaled is the best and have made this experience perfect."

"We had a truly wonderful stay at Haus Seehof! From the moment we arrived, Marion welcomed us with such warmth and genuine hospitality that we felt at home right away. She goes above and beyond to make her guests feel comfortable and cared for — it’s clear she puts her heart into everything she does. We had an absolutely breathtaking view of the lake — waking up to that peaceful scenery was a highlight of our trip. Breakfast each morning was a delight, with fresh, delicious options that gave us the perfect start to our days."

"Everything! The host Mishko was there all the time, on call for everything. We're more than glad that he and his wife waited and assisted with the directions even though we arrived after 10 pm. The house is on the beach, in a quiet neighborhood-terrific if you want to relax. The view of the lake can not be described with words. There is a market at the next street open on Sunday. The place is worth more than the price."

"We’re really glad we chose to stay here and not in central Batumi. We highly recommend this part of the city — it's peaceful, surrounded by nature, and the sea is just across the road. Meanwhile, the city center is currently full of construction, traffic, and crowds. Here, everything was calm and relaxing. The location is great — close to the train station and the botanical garden. The beach nearby was quiet, with very few people. The water and the shore were clean — a big contrast to the busy and noisy beaches in central Batumi. There was a convenient shared kitchen on our floor, where we cooked and had dinner on the terrace. Тhere was a coffee pot and coffee available in the kitchen. Other guests were on the same floor, but it never felt crowded. The host and her family were incredibly kind and helpful, always ready to assist. Cleaning was done daily on our floor, and"

Minor issues: during our stay, the washing machine on our floor wasn’t working, but we were able to use the one downstairs, and it was soon fixed. At one point the toilet wouldn’t flush, but it turned out the lid just needed to be adjusted — a quick fix.

"We are visiting from Australia and this was a perfect place to stay for over a week. Lovely host who was so kind. The guesthouse is only a 5 min walk to a lovely restaurant and another 5 mins to centre of town yet it’s so peaceful. Room was very clean and comfortable with great aircon. A lounge area is available with tea/coffee, fridge and microwave. Lovely outdoor seating area. I highly recommend this beautiful guesthouse."

Everything was great
