Built along the foothills of Mount Meru in northern Tanzania, Shangazi House has 10 acres of gardens and woodland with views south and east across Maasailand. A ten-minute drive takes you up into Arusha National Park, the home to deep calderas and Colobus monkeys. The colonial-style main house and 4 outlying cottages provide not only great privacy and comfort, but also the luxury of the cooling breezes coming off the mountain.
Originally built as a private home, the main house is spacious and comfortable with a verandah that overlooks a sweeping landscape of flower beds and huge native trees. Normal capacity is 12 persons in 6 double rooms (four rooms, however, can add an extra bed).The main house has 2 bedrooms with en suite bathrooms. These rooms adjoin and can be opened up into a family suite. The cottages are doubles with a bathroom and a front verandah – three have a fireplace. All cottages & rooms are fitted with luxurious walk in mosquito nets. Hairdryers can be provided upon request.

One of the nicest things about Shangazi House is that you don’t have to make a long trek to see the wild parts of Tanzania. It’s only a 10 minute ride to Arusha National Park, a mountainous and forested sanctuary “island” where juniper forests and water falls are situated along tranquil lakes and forested volcanic rims. The land surrounding Shangazi is beautiful and fairly rural; nearby villages are quick to welcome visitors.
