Blue Cactus Shanty

Whether you are adventuring, discovering the wonders of Kilimanjaro or just here for work, a cup of freshly brewed coffee, by the breakfast bar made of wood from the famous dhows, is a picture-perfect setting to start off your day. Our home, Blue Cactus Shanty, is a modern bungalow located in the quite leafy and walkable neighborhood of Shanty Town. It is inside a secure compound with a security guard and enough private parking for four large cars. It is within walking distance of restaurants, grocery stores and public transportation and is only ten minutes from the CBD
Blue Cactus Shanty features open plan living, bedrooms with colorful accented walls and tasteful artwork and memorabilia throughout the space. The kitchen is fully functional and is complemented with a dining space enough for six people. The living room gives you a sense of being together without feeling like your space is being invaded. The storage is enough for any personal belongings or items purchased during your stay. Wi-Fi is available throughout the home, including the common working area, bedrooms, and the garden. Six people can be accommodated in three ensuite bedrooms; two single beds in one bedroom and a queen-size in each of the other two bedrooms. Additionally, a public toilet is available for your guests.
