The apartment and everything in it is sparkling clean. The kitchen, bathroom, laundry, bedroom and living room facilities are all good quality, clean and organised. Susan and Joel are super hosts who did everything possible to make our stay comfortable. We enjoyed their board games, fruits, snacks and traditional food offers. The location is a walking distance from the town centre and the source of the the Nile. It's definitely the place to be while in Jinja.

Fabulous room with a cosy balcony overlooking Lake Victoria, magical! Room was comfortable, clean and quiet. Hot water and a powerful shower was a delight! The new bar and restaurant area is an added bonus, good call David! The Margarita’s and G&Ts were a real treat, thanks to Jennifer’s newly acquired mixology skills. Dinner was delicious, I had goat stew, it was the best I had. Safe, secure, welcoming. Thanks David and team, we enjoyed our stay, your company and we had a wonderful nights rest after a jolly good evening! All the best wishes :)

    The facilities outside and the location are great. There is a direct view of the river Nile, the pool is clean, big, and deep with a shallow end which is suitable for experienced swimmers and kids who may not know how to swim, and the food is good i.e. tasty.

    -the staff, especially the ones at the bar (love goes out to James!) are next level friendly. We just stayed for 4 nights, but it felt we were included into a big family right away -location! Close to river Nile with its rather touristic options, but in walkable distance into town for anything else -Very fair prices at the bar and restaurant (portions are huge and mouth watering good)

    The panaramic views were amazing and the peace and tranquility of the well kept compound was superb. Very child friendly and swimming in the pool was brilliant. Listening and watching the wildlife sat on the veranda was very special. Claire the cook fed us well and provided delicious food if you choose to take up this option. Being able to go tubing on the Nile directly from the villa was an added advantage.
