Alles war wundervoll. Samantha und Bruce sind tolle Gastgeber. Wir haben zwei Nächte unserer Flitterwochen dort verbracht. Unser Zimmer war romantisch geschmückt. Sogar unser Tisch zum Essen im Allgemeinen Bereich war mit Blumen dekoriert. Man muss nur beachten, dass die Zahlung bar vor Ort erfolgt. Es war alles super sauber.

"Zentrale Lage und super Service"

10.0

Wir waren für 2 Nächte im Kibale Eco-Home. Die Zimmer sind einfach, aber sauber. Warmwasser funktioniert hervorragend. Bruce & Samantha sind äußerst gastfreundlich. Das Essen, auf der tollen Terrasse, umgeben von Vögeln, wird frisch und liebevoll zubereitet. Das Zentrum ist fussläufig erreichbar und dennoch ist die Unterkunft sehr ruhig gelegen. Auch die Anlaufstelle zum Schimpansentrekking ist sehr nah. Danke für den tollen Aufenthalt

"Exceptional eco homestay – warm, authentic and truly welcoming"

10.0

Bruce and Samantha, who run the homestay, are incredibly friendly and genuinely service-oriented. Together with their family, they create a very warm and welcoming atmosphere where you immediately feel at home. This is a true eco homestay, and you can clearly feel the sustainability mindset in every detail. Bruce, with his background in environmental science, puts a lot of care into living and sharing these values. The entire place is well maintained, and the rooms are comfortable and thoughtfully arranged. What made the stay really special were the personal interactions. They take time for meaningful conversations and give you a real insight into their family life and the local community. You don’t feel like a guest – you feel included. The food was delicious and prepared with a lot of love. I also had the chance to roast my own coffee with Samantha at a nearby place, which was a unique and memorable experience. Through this, I learned a lot about eco-farming, sustainability, and the strong community spirit in the area. Overall, I felt very well taken care of and truly welcomed. I can highly recommend this place to anyone looking for an authentic and meaningful stay.

10.0

We had a lovely stay at Kibale eco-home! We were welcomed into the family of Bruce and Samantha, the owners. The meals were really good, the room was very new, clean and comfortable. Bruce, Samantha and the other staff made our stay very memorable as they were so friendly and welcoming. They were keen to hear our experience so they can improve. The gate to Kibale NP for the chimpanzee tracking/habituation is less than 10 min away (by car). We would definitely recommend staying here.

"Relaxing haven convenient for chimpanzee trekking"

10.0

A relaxing haven a stones throw away from Bigodi wetlands. We were made to feel very welcome by Bruce and his family. Whenever we needed any help - suggestions on activities, booking guides etc there was always someone available to help, but otherwise we were left to our own devices which we really appreciated. Bruce also helped us to book our Chimpanzee trekking permits ahead of our trip which was a massive help. The home cooked food Sabina served was all delicious and lovingly prepared. Our rooms were nicely furnished and very clean, beds comfortable, hot water and mosquito nets. The secure parking was also really handy as we were self driving

Nothing, we’d highly recommend!

"Aanrader! Goeie prijs kwaliteit verhouding!"

10.0

Fijne douche met warm water, heerlijk ontbijt, top locatie (naast de bigodi swamp walk en vlakbij het startpunt voor de wandeling naar de chimpansees)! Erg stil dus heerlijk geslapen. Wat nog een plus is dat de eigenaren (een stel) zich enorm inzet op het vlak van duurzaamheid (alternatieve manier van stoken ipv hout waardoor het bos verkleind) en zeer sociaal. Voor het huisje zie je allemaal vogels met nestjes etc.

Niets eigenlijk

"Great find"

10.0

This place is fabulous for the independent traveller. There's secure parking for the car, it's just a 3-minute walk to the Bigodi Wetland Sanctuary and it's just off the main street with its shops and markets. Yet, it's quiet and private, and the outdoor sitting area makes you feel you're in the middle of the forest surrounded by birds. The hosts are attentive, friendly and accommodating. You can enjoy lovely and abundant home-cooked meals and warm hospitality. The room had an ensuite bathroom and was spacious and comfortable.
