Loved Fun Retreat Resort - highly recommend!
We had a lovely time at Fun Retreat Resort on our final night in Arusha after our safari! The grounds are gorgeous - a true tropical feel - and our family had a great time in the water park! The food was delicious, and the staff was extremely kind and helpful. Highly recommend!

Our stay was first class - great rooms, wonderful pool, perfect location for our stayover, very quiet, staff very attentive and helpful.
The only negative to our stay was the length of time to prepare our evening meal.
Would highly recommend this hotel.

You won’t regret your stay
Our family had a wonderful experience at Fun Retreat Resort. We can’t praise the staff enough. The grounds are immaculate. The food was outstanding. It’s accessible to nearby shops. There are loads of activities for children. We arrived very late and left extremely early. Emmy and the team were gracious and supportive. Thank you for a dream come true trip.

Room was dated and tiny. The hotel added a single bed to a room that originally had a double bed so there was hardly any space to walk around/put baggage. Bathroom shower was strong, but limited counter space. Did not use the water park. Breakfast was fine and complimentary.

Surpris que tout soit payant, même la piscine et le parc extérieur pour les enfants... Aussi, ils ne prennent que les USD après 2013.
Chambre petite mais propre. Personnel et service très bien.

Unser Zimmer war viel zu klein für drei Personen. Auch mit nur einem Doppelbett ist kaum Platz zwischen Bett und Wand. Bad wenig komfortabel. Zu den Essenszeiten war das Buffet nicht fertig. Personal ist überfordert. Essen war in Ordnung,

The property look good but at. iChat it started raining and I was already slept and I started listening to leaks from the roof so the drops or water came on my bed . I had to wake up call the front desk and told the situation so they said will change me from room so as I have just come from a safari I was really tired and I had to pack everything again to go to another room in the middle of the night next day I complain and they just said sorry for the inconvenience . I just stayed one night and I will never return again . The only good thing is the Ayurveda treatments . But you don’t have to stay in the room to get a treatment . So don’t stay there .
