My husband and I spent the first night of our honeymoon at Onsea, having spent 13 hours travelling there from Heathrow via Nairobi. We arrived exhausted and hungry.

Upon arrival, the 18 hours of flights/airports seemed to melt away, allowing us to relax before heading out for safari the next day.... more

Onsea House made a fabulous start to our honeymoon in June. It is in a gorgeous spot in the hills above Arusha, at the foot of Mount Meru and was the most genuinely welcoming place.
