Hi, I’m Pat, Your host at Moon&Star guesthouse
About 20 years ago I dreamed of creating an oasis of peace near Kumasi, Ghana. But also a place where we can actively participate in local life and where we can support beautiful projects. Read more about our social mission in our blog.
A hostel in Ghana surrounded by beautiful nature, yet easily accessible. A guesthouse where everyone who travels through Ghana feels good, where it is cozy, where you can enjoy delicious food and drink, nature and where everyone feels at home and can be himself. With great pride I can say that we have succeeded!
In December 2020 Moon&Star guesthouse organised Nick and Iris’ Ghana tour. This as a bonus when they booked the 5-day Ashanti tour with us. Iris and Nick travelled with local transportation, they used tro tro, coaches, tuc tuc’s and an occasional taxi or Uber. Team Moon&Star made their itinerary, booked their accommodations, arranged a few tourguides and provided an E-book that contained all the details about their 4-week trip. They made a video that gives a nice impression of their amazing journey in Ghana.

Social Mission
In the more than 10 years of Moon&Star guesthouse’s existence, we have been a supporting and encouraging force for the NGO “Crossing borders for Ghana” and we have supported many short term projects.
In 2021, together with the aforementioned foundation, we started a long-term project, the Banko Women Center.
Banko Women Center focuses on improving the situation and empowering women in Banko, Ghana.
We are in the process of setting up a training center, but also organize sports classes and discussion groups.
You can help us by donating or volunteering!

Sustainable Philosophy
Sustainability is very important to us. Not only ecological sustainability; we make eco bricks, buy locally as much as possible, have a vegetable garden and use solar energy.
But also social sustainability. This is reflected in our social mission, the fact that we use local transport and always consult local leaders.
