Condo vacation rentals in Ethiopia

This is our second time staying in this apartment. You can read our original review from February of this year for more details, but to reiterate, the location is great, both in terms of the nearby neighbourhoods and the pleasant walking along this stretch of Gabon Street. The apartment is very comfortable, but the real reason we came back is because of our host, Hiwot. She may very well be the kindest and most responsive host on Airbnb. Thank you again, Hiwot.

I had an interesting experience staying in Addis for two months with Sima and her German friend Julia. Sima's brother picked me up from the airport and Sima was always available to help me with my daily needs. The neighbourhood looks not so bad, safe and very Ethiopian. =) Of course, I encountered the typical Addis Ababa problems with water, internet and electricity but it wasn't critical and with a local SIM card and VPN it was suitable for my remote work.

I have already written a review of my first week on Bamlak's Airbnb. Whatever I said in that review stands and applies to my stay from December 19 to January 5, 2024.

"Exceptional Experience in Ethiopia! We traveled from India to Ethiopia and had the pleasure of staying at Hiwot's wonderful property for 10 incredible days. From the moment we arrived, Hiwot treated us like family - her warmth, kindness, and hospitality made us feel right at home. The property exceeded our expectations in every way. It was comfortable, clean, and perfectly suited for our needs. Hiwot was an outstanding host - always available to help, provide guidance, and make our stay truly unforgettable. Her kindness and generosity made our Ethiopian adventure even more special. We highly recommend Hiwot's property to all our Indian friends and family traveling to Ethiopia. You won't regret it! Thank you, Hiwot, for creating lifelong memories for us. We can't wait to return.

This place was incredible amazing, quite, in the center of the town, and cozy. The host was very helpful in every aspect. It’s a place I recommend and would stay again.

Hiwot, her husband and their lovely kids were just fantastic. I will never forget their hospitality. We Were like a family. Thank you for everything dear Hiwot.. I can't thanks enough for apple mangoes as well. You are the best. Hope I'll visit you all again. A warm hello from İstanbul/ Türkiye

If you have lived in Ethiopia previously this place is great and have all the basic needs. Great location in the center of the city. Kitchen needs larger cook area.. maybe an L shape counter would have given more space.

The apartment is very nice and comfortable! The location is very convenient, near shops and supermarkets. The space was very clean and had all of the necessities. Yeshewaget was very helpful and friendly, she's a super host. We would highly recommend this wonderful apartment.

Our week in Addis Abeba was made unforgettable thanks to this perfect apartment. Situated on the 6th floor, the apartment offered a breathtaking view that amazed us anew each morning. The bright, spacious ambiance made it the perfect retreat for the two of us, with the large living room and the comfy sofa. The kitchen was not just large, but also equipped with everything needed for daily life - a dream for anyone who loves to cook, like us. The bedroom was a quiet oasis for relaxation, complemented by an en suite bathroom that added to our comfort. Furthermore the communication with Ahlam was seamless, and she proved to be a wonderfully attentive host. This apartment was the perfect base for exploring Addis Abeba, while also providing a cozy place to which we loved returning. We highly recommend this place and would definitely book it again on our next visit.
