Rafiki Place

About us

Rafiki means friend.

A calm garden retreat in Moshi, built for guests who want to feel at home.

Our story

Space to arrive, rest and reconnect.

Rafiki Place began with a simple idea: travellers coming to Kilimanjaro deserve more than a bed. They deserve a peaceful, safe and welcoming home. Behind our gates you'll find five private apartments set around a lush garden, an outdoor kitchen, shared dining spaces and hosts who know Moshi inside out.

Whether you are preparing for a summit, returning from safari, visiting family or taking a slower Tanzanian break, we give your group room to breathe.
