HOW BOOKING WORKS

Three steps. Not thirty messages.

  1. 01

    Pick your nights

    The calendar is live, so what looks free is free.

  2. 02

    We hold them for 45 minutes

    One tap sends us a WhatsApp with the home, its code, your dates and guests. Nobody else can book those nights while we confirm.

  3. 03

    Pay the deposit by MoMo

    Once it lands you're confirmed, and the exact address and directions unlock on your private booking page.

A home for every kind of trip

Shortcuts into the filters, chosen from what 80+ guests actually asked us for.

Questions guests actually ask

The ones we answer most on WhatsApp. Yours isn't here? Ask — a person replies, usually within the hour.

Ask us anything

When do I pay, and how?

Nothing until we confirm with the host. Then we send a link to pay the deposit by MTN MoMo or Airtel Money — no card needed — and you're confirmed the moment it lands.

Can I see the exact address before I book?

You'll see the area and a nearby landmark on every home. The exact address and directions unlock on your private booking page once your deposit is confirmed.

What happens if my 45 minutes run out?

The hold simply lapses and the nights go back on the calendar. Ask again, or message us — we can usually confirm faster than that.

Is there power and water backup?

Most homes have solar or generator backup and hot water; every home lists it under amenities, so you can filter for it.

Is the price really the whole price?

Yes. The nightly price and the total you see are what you pay — no cleaning or service fee is added at the end. Longer stays get their discount automatically.

Tell us your dates.
We'll find the house.
