Guest Reviews
- Mosseray (8/5): - Très belle vue sur le lac, endroit calme en pleine nature. Personnel sympa et accueillant. L'excursion en bateau proposée était très intéressante. L'espace commun est une terrasse couverte et comme il avait beaucoup plu il faisait froid donc pas très agréable pour le repas du soir et nous avons passé la soirée dans notre chambre.
Nous n'avions pas compris qu'il fallait prendre un bateau pour arriver à l'hôtel. Cela devrait être noté sur booking.
- Liliana (1/5): DRAMATYCZNY DOJAZD, BRAK INFO, że można TYLKO ŁODZIĄ dopłynąć! Chłopcy z wioski nam pomogli wyjechać - Nie wiem. Nie udało mi się tam dojechać. Dojazd. Korzystam z dwóch nawigacji: Google Maps i Maps me. Obie wyprowadziły mnie po bardzo wyboistej drodze na sam szczyt góry. Jechałam samochodem terenowym 4x4, nie dało się wyjechać. Prawie robiliśmy samochód.
- Christopher (9/5): We had a great time there, the property could use some improvements, but the staff made it 5 star. We did a tour to the - The staff were really great.
- Norbert (9/5): Jeśli szukasz ciszy i spokoju,dobrze trafiłaś/łeś - Świetna lokalizacja. Cisza i spokój dookoła. Bardzo dobre i obfite śniadania podobnie jak kolacje,które można zamówić za dodatkową opłatą.
Miła i pomocna obsługa. Warto wybrać się na rejs łódką i poznać okoliczne wyspy. Proste wnętrza, ale na krótki pobyt wystarczające. W domkach zdecydowanie brakuje krzeseł,czy prostej szafki które ułatwiłyby rozpakowanie się/ przepakowanie.
- Colomban (10/5): Petite retraite délicieuse - L'emplacement: isolé sur une presqu'île, au milieu des collines. Calme, somptueux, apaisant.
Les chambres individuelles confortables.
La nourriture préparée, généreuse et bonne
L'accueil et la gentillesse du staff : des jeunes adorables, communicant parfaitement en anglais avec entrain et dynamisme qui ont rendu ce séjour des plus agréables.
Merci Phionah, Ousnah et Ema!
- Paul Nikolaus (8/5): - Die Lage direkt am See bietet die Möglichkeit, zu schwimmen. Das Personal ist sehr zuvorkommend. Das Essen ist gut.
- Hans C, Froehlich (10/5): - Aussicht Essen
- Laurine (10/5): Allez-y ! - Très beau logement. Nous en avons fait 2 dans les environs et bien que moins cher et plus simple, celui-ci fut notre preferé. C’est familial, on s’y sent bien. On peut se baigner dans le lac qui est vraiment au bord. Douches chaudes.
Repas plutôt simples mais complets (10$ par personne). Petit dej comme partout : œufs et fruits. The/ café.
Le wifi fonctionne. Ajoutez 3% si vous payez par carte, mais c’est possible.
- Emma (10/5): It was amazing, I’m definitely gonna be there again - Amazing staff and great place Nothing
- Luca (10/5): - Ruhig und hübsch
- Laat Aterbang (8/5): excellent - the breakfast was great all were good
- Roberta (10/5): -
- Per (7/5): Stedet er skønt med stort potentiale. - Venlige og hjælpsomme personale.
- Antje (5/5): -
- Audrey (7/5): - La gentillesse de Fiona, la forme du logement en petite cabane. La chambre manque un peu d'équipement comme une table de nuit.
- Bar (8/5): - הצוות היה נפלא! עזר בכל בעיה! עזרו לנו גם להזמין מונית כשיצאנו משם. היה תה וקפה חינם לאורך כל השהות שלנו שם. אנשים מאוד נחמדים ומקום באמת יפה ומסודר. הדבר היחיד הוא שלא היה מים חמים במקלחת, אבל הצוות עזר ולפחות הביא לנו דלי עם מים חמים להתקלח בו.
- Estizen (9/5): - The staff was the best!! Needs maintenance. You have to relay on them for every meal since there is nothing around and 10$ per meal is way to expensive for what they offer
- Bar (8/5): - הצוות היה מדהים. עזר בהכל. אינטרנט טוב בלובי אבל לא מגיע לחדרים. היה קפה ותה בחינם לאורך כל היום. לא היו מים במקלחות. התקלחנו עם דלי. לא היה וויפיי בחדרים
- ROSALBA (10/5): - personale gentile e disponibile per ogni richiesta. Il resort è raggiungibile solo via lago, hanno una barca che vi viene a prendere al molo ed in pochi minuti vi portano al lodge che ha una vista mozzafiato e dal quale si può ammirare una bellissima alba. Possono organizzare diverse escursioni, compreso il tour del lago in un atmosfera di quiete e relax. Durante il tour è possibile vedere punishment island e una scuola/orfanotrofio (Little Angesl) che ha davvero bisogno di aiuto dove vengono cresciuti ospitati ed istruiti bambini in difficolta economiche o che non hanno nessuno. l'acqua della doccia è riscaldata da pannelli solari di conseguenza la sera quando fa buio può essere fredda
- Beatrix (8/5): - Super Lage, sehr freundliches Personal, schöne Bootsfahrt und wunderbare Schwimmgelegenheit. -
- Marzia (8/5): - La posizione e la gentilezza dello staff Le camere erano molto spoglie e in alcune camere non c'era l'acqua calda
- Eli (10/5): Maravilloso alojamiento delante del lago - La situación es inmwjorable y el personal, Fiona, Kakulo y Ibra, son maravillosos, hacen tu estancia inmejorable!!
Buena comida, tour en barca...
- Raquel (9/5): - A lovely spot on Lake Bunyonyi, accessible by a small boat provided by the accommodation (as is common around the lake). The best part is definitely the staff – incredibly kind, attentive, and genuinely good people. They offer tours and excursions in the area. There's also a small dock where you can swim and relax. Super peaceful, perfect for unwinding. We would absolutely come back and highly recommend it!
- Martyna (8/5): Very good -
- Paul (8/5): Very good -
- Erik (7/5): Good -
- Zhuyan (9/5): Wonderful - Good lake view, good breakfast, nice walk up to the view point, and free ride to the guest house, staffs are friendly. WiFi only works in the restaurant area, and sometimes not working, limited choice of food.
- Ahsan (9/5): Amazing Stay - Location is Excellent
Breakfast is good
Staff are very helpful
- Samar (8/5): Nice stay to calm down - Very quiet place in a rural area. Good to calm down and to relax. We had a nice stay and the staff is very friendly, nice and helpful.
You can reach the area only by boat, don't try to drive there! The bathroom had no doors and it wasn't as clean as expected. The mosquito net needs to be changed, it moved a lot and it was annoying.
Food was okay
- Annemarie (9/5): Very pleasant surprise at the lake - Hospitable staff who did the most to please us. Good food and drinks in the open air, covered restaurant whith beautiful view on the plants with little birds and lake. Nice cottage with bathroom and hot shower. Swimming in the lake and canoeing was great fun, as well as a boat tour. The guide is very informative. Nothing, it was perfect.
- Valais (10/5): Exceptional - The accommodation is in a beautiful location on Lake Bunyonyi. The accommodation is very clean and the staff are impeccable. Especially Fiona was very smiley and ready to help with anything. Definitely rent a traditional canoe and take a trip to the nearby islands alone or with a group
- Shabnam (7/5): Good - The location was very good, near the lake with a good view of Lake , clean, the breakfast was OK , the shower was good and we could wash all clothes and it had good sun for drying clothes There are not many food options there, and you have to eat their food that was expensive for us. Pay attention to bring sth there for eating, also water is more expensive there.
The other problem in the room is that there is no hanger or table or anything, so you don't know where to put your stuff.
The last thing is that the boat guy was the worst person we had met in uganda, so don't trust him at all. He always wants to give more money from you with telling lie. He wanted to overcharge us for taxi to Rwanda and also for going to kabale we had many problems with him. The other staffs were normal, not very good and not very bad
- Amanda (8/5): Very good - Lovely location right on the lake all rooms have a lake view. Staff are so friendly and helpful. Lots of activities to do in the area. Only accessible by boat, there is safe parking in the village, you have to walk to the boat so try not take a lot of luggage! So quiet too. Dinner needs improving. There is no menu so you can't choose your food. I am vegetarian and ate rice, potatoes, cabbage and beans for 4 nights. The rooms could do with a toilet seat, rubbish bins and somewhere to put your clothes.
- Chris (9/5): Great place to stay at one of Uganda’s most beautiful places - Great lodge at the lake. Pick up by boat from the harbour across the pensinsula where you can leave your car. Nice quiet place with amazing lake view. A boat tour is recommended. It shows you part of the lake and you visit one island where a school is located now. Friendly staff prepares meals and makes you feel welcomed. It was good for us, so nothing.
- Anna (10/5): Great place and people! - Very nice and calm place, ideal to relax, the staff is welcoming and helpful! We had a wonderful stay :) There are a lot of activities you can book, we chose to rent a canoe in the morning and it was great fun! The only issue we encountered was that we had to wait quite a long time for dinner, but there was a fire place that we could wait by.
- Eva (9/5): Superb - Magical place, silence and peace. Romantic cottages, quite clean, excellent breakfast. Staff very helpful, they prepared dinner for us and brought beer, although they had to go by boat to get it. The morning was like in a fairy tale, an ideal place for relaxation and peaceful time spent with friends :-)
Wifi in the gazebo area worked great. There was no hot water, but we were used to that in Uganda :-)
- Simon (8/5): a quiet retreat across the water - The location and the boat ride across make it a special occasion as did the campfire, thank you. The cottages although close together are pleasant and comfortable Food could have been better and better thought out. The walkways do need improving to make safer especially after rain as they can become slippery and hand rails for the steps would be helpful.
- Pavlína (10/5): this place was wonderful and the guide Bedan was very pleasure and he told many thinks about lake. - breakfast and dinner was very tasty.
- Les (7/5): Good, quite and cheep stay far from the city. - Location at the lake. Quite remote. Friendly and helpful staff. It is inexpensive to stay here. If you like serene and quite, far away from hussle and bussle of the city that's your place to be. Not too many treakking opportunities. Accessible only by boat. Breakfast rather simple.
