I had a wonderful stay with the 12 ladies I brought along for our Rwanda & Uganda trip. The lodge is in a stunning location, overlooking Crater Lake. The pictures truly can't capture the beauty of the view – it’s simply breathtaking. I recommend booking a room near the restaurant, as I believe those offer the best views. The room was spacious, and the shower had warm water with great pressure (which isn’t always guaranteed in Africa!). We really appreciated the complimentary laundry service after our hikes. Manager Musa was incredibly helpful and always ready to assist us. We even drank all the white wine during our women’s trip, and Musa managed to restock it for us the next day! Every evening, we had aperitives by the bonfire before dinner. We were the only guests, which made our experience even more special, as we had the whole lodge to ourselves. What a lovely memory – we truly want to come back! We spent three nights here, but we could have easily stayed for a week. There are plenty of activities to enjoy, like chimpanzee trekking, swamp hikes, cultural tours, and boat trips on the crater lake. I definitely recommend this place – try to stay a few extra days to truly enjoy it.

Eine tolle Lodge Die Lage der Lodge ist einfach wunderbar! Herrlicher Blick über den Kratersee und nah am Kibale NP. Die Angestellten waren sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich. Am ersten Abend wurde uns zu unserer Überraschung ein romantisches Dinner mit Palmenschmuck und Kerzenlicht bereitet. Am zweiten Tag gab es ein Wasserproblem, die Leitung zu unserem Cottage wurde durchtrennt. Der Manager, Patrick hat sich entschuldigt und uns am Abend die gesamten Getränke spendiert. Der Koch war auch sehr bemüht und das Essen war sehr gut. Der Pool der Lodge ist auch wunderschön gelegen. Würde mich sofort wieder für diese Lodge entscheiden.

Bel lodge, bella location, servizi da migliorare Il Lodge è in una bellissima posizione, con vista splendida sul lago, molto belle le parti comuni in stile coloniale. Le camere standard decisamente basiche, molto meglio i family cottage. Infatti ce le siamo fatte cambiare! Buono il ristorante x cena e colazione, anche se devi ordinare con gran anticipo, nonostante fossimo gli unici clienti! Purtroppo essendo un eco lodge, scarsa illuminazione in camera, acqua appena tiepida e impossibilità di caricare tutti gli apparecchi elettronici, ma bisogna farlo nella hall. No phon e Wi-Fi solo nelle parti comuni. Piscina piccola ma carina.

Warm nights, awesome lake views! I would visit again and again! The complimentary cocktail took my cold away! The property is a few minutes away from Kibale National Park, where we went on a 3-hour chimp trekking and were lucky to spot a mom chimp and her son l!
