Good location. Ideal for a quick break from town. Good bird watching.
Poor showers
Staff were so friendly and accommodating, we were made to feel like family. They arranged a shoebill tour and a ride over to Entebbe and a taxi waiting for us. The highlight was having drinks by a fire listening to the frogs and watching the fireflies. It’s a pretty special place
We had a wonderful stay at this lodge in Entebbe! The location is truly special—right on the lake and only accessible by water taxi, which makes it feel like a peaceful escape from everything. At night, you can hear all the wildlife around you, which adds to the unique experience. During the day, the area is full of fascinating birds—perfect for nature lovers. The staff were incredibly kind and helpful, always making sure we were comfortable. And the food was absolutely delicious! Highly recommend for anyone looking for a quiet, nature-filled getaway.
