I have had one of the best experiences of my life spending close to a week with Natalie, definitely on my to 10 list. Natalie is super caring, pays attention to details, professional and the same time super fun. After almost feeling what was going to be a mental breakdown, after 5 days with Natalie I felt renewed. Please do yourself a favor and attend one of her retreats, you will understand what she does. Loved every minute of my time in Zanzibar, got to do a bit of everything, worked on my business, on myself and still got to explore Zanzibar. Thank you Natalie, will definitely be stalking you for my next retreat.
I thoroughly enjoyed my experience at their retreat in Zanzibar. It was great to tap into my creative side in a welcoming and supportive environment. Highly recommend!
I recently visited Backyard Ventures. And for the first time in my life i did an ice bath, it was incredibly refreshing! When i entered the facility, I was greeted by a charming and tranquil ambiance.
The breath work and ice bath was really a magic in my body, i felt a noticeable uplift in my mood, my body was so relaxed and calm.Thanks to Nathan he guided us very well, taking us through the process.
I highly recommend Backyard Ventures to anyone looking to incorporate ice baths into their wellness routine. It’s a fantastic way to recharge both physically and mentally. I will definitely be returning for more sessions in the future and many other events organized by them! Thank you Natalie and Nathan. It was the best experience.
What a superb new place to stay on the outskirts of Arusha city! Backyard Ventures offers a good range of accommodation options whether you are alone, a couple or small group. Natalie is an excellent host and everything was so smooth. The setting and facilities are superb - completely quiet as away from main road, nature on your doorstep with woodlands full of bird life, spacious garden for relaxing outdoors, good connectivity, comfortable rooms, and spacious, communal kitchen-lounge space. I went as a group but also used the space for remote working; both worked perfectly so flexible space for many needs.
The coziest home ever!!! Went to Arusha for the first time for a touch rugby tournament and I’m so glad we stayed at this house! Stayed for 2 nights and had the best sleep ever!! The owner was also very attentive to our needs from the airport up until we left Arusha! The interior and details of the house is what I loved the most. The owner also DIY’ed the sheets and they feel like you are laying on top of clouds ;)
A few things to keep in mind:
-The place is less than 10 minutes away from the airport. However, Taxis are quite hard to book because they ask for a ridiculous price. So, plan ahead with the owner, she can arrange transport for a much reasonable price.
-If you plan to go direct to the house and stay in, make sure you pack essentials like coffee, milk, etc. the house is well equipped with everything else except consumables. However, if you plan to go around town a supermarket run would be better.
Bonus: the neighbor’s dog likes to come peek at the back door and will politely wait for you to come out and play.
Book this place! You will not regret it!
