House holiday rentals in Uganda

We had a few issues that could have been avoided but Sempijja was pleasant and offered us compensation. House wasn’t cleaned properly but he was extremely apologetic and explained it was an oversight. Suggested they provide drinking water for guests, tea/coffee and basic necessities. Lots of congestion with traffic so try to arrive outside of rush hour. The road in off of Masaka Rd is pretty rough but it’s easy to find. The house, pool and gardens are lovely. It’s very private and fairly quiet during the day, however there is a bar nearby that plays loud music until 4-5 am pretty much every night and a mosque nearby that shouts their call to prayer at 5 am. The fan helped drown out some of the noise. Suggestion - you really need fans for every room. There were only 2 for 6 bedrooms. The pool was amazing and beautiful surroundings. Partly shaded by a large palm which is great if you have sensitive skin. All in all we enjoyed our time and will return.

Title: Wonderful Stay! Review: We had an absolutely fantastic time staying at Sharon’s place. From start to finish, everything was great. The communication with Lynn was smooth and prompt, making everything hassle-free. The space was immaculately clean and beautiful , providing a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. The amenities provided were top-notch, ensuring that we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location was perfect, what I loved most was that the apartment had 24/7 security , a super market , Sauna and a Gym with in the premises , Quality shopping centre was with in 5 mins and had beautiful shops , cafes and restaurants . We enjoyed exploring the area and found plenty of great dining options nearby. I will miss my morning walks in the hills of beautiful Lubowa. Overall, our experience was nothing short of amazing. We cannot recommend Sharon and their property highly enough. Thank you for such a memorable stay—we will definitely be back.

Kelly’s place was a gem of a villa. Perfect for families, great attention to detail and a wonderful garden. Poolside is serene and the rooms are very comfortable and well styled. Kelly is a great host and great communicator and the staff are welcoming and helpful! Karibu!

My family and throughly enjoyed our stay at Carolyn and Junior’s house! The house was so spacious and comfortable for my family and I. And we absolutely fell in love with Mr. Steven, Mr. Dickson, Ms. Barbara, and Ms. Judith! They are wonderful and very helpful and attentive. The host were very welcoming and helpful, we had a little hiccup and they were there to make sure matters were solved and in a timely manner. We were sad to have to leave as this place really started feeling like home. I definitely recommend this house 100%

We had a wonderful stay at Khadija’s oasis of comfort! The accommodation is very easy to reach from the city center and offers direct shopping options, as well as a safe environment. We really enjoyed our time there – the small pool was definitely a highlight! Everything was exactly as described, and Khadija was an excellent host. We would definitely come back and highly recommend this place. Thank you for the amazing time!

A beautiful villa in stunning surroundings. The hosts were extremely friendly and helpful. They responded to queries straight away & went above and beyond to help us reach restaurants, shops etc. Loved the gardens and swimming pool! Felt like paradise! Thank you

Excellent location, responsible host. We were able to conduct a reception and it was the perfect space for all the catering services and guests. If you ever need all of your family in one place this is the place to rent out. And our host was very great to attend to our needs.

Had a very amazing stay here. The place was really clean and vibrant. Definitely a 10/10.

Our stay on Bulago island at Tom's house was just great. From the house, beautifully situated above the water on the far west tip of the island, you have an amazing view over the lake, which gets even better with every step you climb up behind the house up to the hill, which is the highest point of the island. The house is fully equipped with all you need and Tom is an awesome host! We'll soon be back.

The place is in such a beautiful location! The lush garden is from another world. Hellen and all of the staff working there were so sweet, helpful and kind, they made the stay for us. My sister logged over 90 different birds during our 5 day stay, so if you like birds, don’t miss out. It is a rustic stay, but doesn’t lack in space and amenities. Host was super responsive to anything we needed help with.

The best experience with the best host! The house looked exactly like the pictures, and the view was simply out of this world — something you truly have to see for yourself. We’ll definitely be coming back! My boyfriend and I arrived at a very awkward time due to our flight schedule, and the previous guests were still in the accommodation. Despite this, Ernest was incredibly understanding and accommodating. He suggested we wait at a nearby hotel and even went out of his way to personally pick us up once the house was ready. While waiting, we struggled to find an ATM nearby, and again, Ernest stepped in — driving us to one himself. Throughout our stay, he continued to go above and beyond, helping us plan our sightseeing, recommending top attractions, and arranging transportation. By far, Ernest is the best host we’ve ever encountered. What an absolute gentleman. You’re a legend, Ernest! God bless you and your family! 🫶🏾

It was a wonderful experience in a magical place surrounded by nature. A small oasis in the middle of a well kept forest with a view of the River. It’s one of those places you would love to come back.

Zainab is a great host, responsive and considerate. The space itself is very spacious, peaceful and calm.

We had a fabulous few days. Found the space very comfortable and peaceful. Having our washing done, using bikes and daily breakfast was such an unexpected treat! Best Rolex in Gulu! Will be coming back to stay when I am next in town!

Kenneth went above and beyond, the communication was timely and useful. The house is curated with care and thoughtfulness. They were able to take considerations around safety and comfort as we were traveling with a young child. Most responsive host I have come across. Definitely a home away from home!

Good place I'll definitely go back, it was hot season and the fans provided helped big time. Good internet connection to the house too. Leonard and Isaac were a great help and very accommodative. Thank you

We came with three kids and were a bit nervous about being off the beaten path — but this place turned out to be a gem. The garden is like a wonderland, the house is well-equipped (we cooked pancakes in the morning!), and everyone — especially Arali and Brenda the caretakers — made sure we were safe and comfortable. The rooms are charmingly rustic, though you should know that there’s no hot water on demand. You can ask for it to be heated, but we actually ended up enjoying the cool morning rinse — it woke us up better than coffee. :) There’s currently no direct way to reach the lake, which was a small letdown for our kids. But with all the other experiences — the theatre night with Rayka, the drumming, the monkeys — they didn’t even remember this by the end! Its a very unique place - go check it out!

Allan was a great host, making us feel comfortable and right at home. The space was very well designed with impeccable woodwork and very cozy. He was very flexible with the check-in and check-out and was very friendly and responsive when we needed him. Thank you very much for a lovely stay Allan, we hope to be back soon.

An amazing place with a beautiful flower garden

My friends and I stayed at Dr Stella's place in Namulanda for two nights. She and Kia, her house manager are very nice, welcoming and helpful with even the smallest details to make our stay as easy as possible - on top of all the amenities and fully functioning chicken, she even recommended a neighbourhood restaurant that served a delicious supper. Neighbourhood is a bit of a distance off the maid road but it makes up for that with how peaceful and safe it is. I'll definitely stay whenever I am in the area as the price itself is really good for this place.

I didn't get to meet John, but I met Mama Jayme who was super super helpful! I booked to prepare for my traditional marriage ceremony, and I surely have no regrets! Amazing Mama Jayme! God Bless Her

It was a joy for me and my partner to stay at Jenny's place. The location was calming and peaceful; a good getaway from the hustle and bustle of Kampala. The bnb is located 15min from Bule Landingsight where we docked with a boat organised for us by Jenny. The boda boda ride to the tucked-away sanctuary was just as scenic as the journey on Lake Victoria. We specifically enjoyed the privacy of the bnb including how quiet it was and the outside kitchen with all amenities. The birds and other interesting wildlife spotted on the property were an extra perk for me. The staff was helpful, discrete and dedicated to helping us have a good time. We will certainly be back in future.

Located close to the Airport. In a quiet and private neighborhood. The home is clean and super organized. I enjoyed my time here with a great night's sleep right after my flight was delayed. Thank you for keeping a very neat place. The caretaker was great and super helpful.

I'm a returning guest, and that for a good reason. The house and the compound is absolutely amazing and the host is amazing. We came back specifically for this house/Location because it's in a quiet and family-friendly area and has a big (Big!) garden outside for the kids to play. We've spent the entire days outside eating, playing and enjoying the sunny Kampala weather. The help are also very helpful and have gone above and beyond to make sure that me and my big family have been as comfortable as possible. I can't recommend this place enough to anyone wanting a comfortable place to stay. I am already planning my next trip, and I know it will be in this house again.
