A Mapped Stay on Blama Road

OAU Village marks a single property on Blama Road in Kenema, eastern Sierra Leone. The address and the mapped coordinates place it inside an open area that the source descriptions call OAU Village, a name shared by the guest house and the broader setting. Travelers who arrive for the cultural performances staged here find a guest-house address set within this village setting, lending the property its distinct identity.
Inside the OAU Village Setting
The most interesting detail about OAU Village is the cultural calendar that frames a stay here. Independent sources describe going inside OAU Village in Kenema's eastern region to witness cultural performances. That context turns the address from a simple line on a map into a doorway onto local stagecraft, where drums, dance and song give the surrounding neighborhood its rhythm. The guest house itself is identified in tourism listings under the heading OAU Village Guest House, confirming the property shares its name with the cultural venue.
Location and Surroundings
The property is mapped at OAU Village, Blama Road, Kenema, Sierra Leone. Within a roughly one-kilometer radius, four mapped places give a sense of what surrounds the address without dictating any personal choice:
- Food Master Restaurant & Bakery, a catering venue about 681 m away - Paloma Guest House Restaurant, a mapped building about 817 m away - Unique Cafe & Grill, a catering venue about 1008 m away - Waka Fast, a catering venue about 1195 m away
These straight-line distances are useful as orientation, not as a walking promise, since terrain and route choice can change the actual time on foot.
City Context: Kenema, Eastern Sierra Leone
Kenema is the eastern region's main hub, and OAU Village sits within that urban frame. The blend of a guest-house address and a cultural gathering point on Blama Road gives the property a practical base from which to explore the wider city, while keeping the performances and village atmosphere close at hand.
Practical Considerations
- The address on Blama Road is the clearest reference point for finding the property - Surrounding amenities are mapped nearby but should be checked in person for current opening hours and offerings - Cultural performance schedules and formats may change, so confirming timing locally is sensible before planning a visit - Mapping details, business listings and the names of nearby venues can evolve over time
A Note on What Is Known
The evidence for OAU Village is unusually compact: a precise mapped location, an address on Blama Road, four mapped neighboring places, the shared name with the cultural site, and tourism-listing wording that ties the guest house to the village. What the ledger does not include is room counts, room types, prices, star classification, amenities, on-site dining, awards, transport links or reviews. Those details are intentionally left out rather than guessed, so the picture stays honest to what is mapped and sourced.
