Frequent power outages in Tanzania.
Recently Tanzania has experienced frequent power outages. Our country is in the midst of a draught which has affected our hydropower facilities leaving large areas of the country without power for long periods of time. To ensure that you have consistent power, we have installed solar panels! This means that your stay with us at Home Villa will be comfortable with guaranteed light, hot water and internet. We would love to have you visit and try out our new solar panel powered accommodations!
