Booking.com continues to list properties in areas flagged by international bodies for legal and ethical concerns.
At the same time, they charge small, independent hotels like us up to 25% in fees - while returning little to the communities you travel to support.
If you care about where your money goes, don’t just travel consciously - book consciously.
➡️ Booking your stay with us through their platform now includes a 10% markup. Skip the middleman: book directly on our site and receive 10% off. That’s 20% more going to the community you came to support.
We stand for fair, intentional, community-rooted travel. Do you stand with us?

@mr_kahawa I’ve just had to book through booking.com as I couldn’t via your website. The page would not refresh past the CAPTCHA. I’d happily cancel and rebook direct if you can help 🙏🏻

Well done! Since we started listing with them we have raised our price there not only by 10% but to cover their entire commission! 💣 Direct bookings are always the best choice! ♥️🙌🏽

As a returning guest, I've always emailed @mr_kahawa directly and even asked for my same room when possible, and each time, they've given me a return rate. ❤️🙌🔥
