Vacation rentals with outdoor seating in Lake Victoria

We had a lovely family stay at Brittany's beautiful home. It is located a very walkable distance to local backpackers/restaurants and the neighborhood is very peaceful and comfortable. The house itself is lovely -- well-equipped with plenty of space and comfortable amenities. We would absolutely stay there again.

We loved our stay and wish we booked more days! As expats living in UG this home was a true haven on top of the hill-a real getaway from the dust, noise, and crowds of Kampala. The view was breathtaking and so relaxing. The kids loved the books, trampoline and pool. My husband and I loved the cool breezes blowing through the windows and the extra large coffee mugs!

December 2924 I had a warm and beautiful stay at the Exquisite. It is exquisite indeed! Very spacious, and you have a beautiful view of Lake Victoria. Phelyx has outstanding security measures. Not far from the Airport thus made trips to and from the airport easier since I had to go back Mombasa as well. I felt very safe at the Exquisite. Phelyx and his Caretaker Christiano were very attentive and responded swiftly whenever I needed anything. He has a boda boda guy that can do grocery shopping for you as well. That was very convenient 👍🏾 I miss the fresh mangoes already 😃 Thank you Phelyx and look forward to booking with you again. Happy New Year to you and your family 🎉

I recently stayed at this Airbnb during my visit to Uganda and had a great experience. The place was nice, cozy, and exactly as described in the listing. The only minor issue was the hot water, but I was able to make it work and it didn’t take away from the overall comfort of my stay. It’s a lovely spot, and I would definitely book again if I return to Uganda. Thank you for the warm hospitality!

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 lovely stay at this place which was clean, functional, secure and in a good location! Thanks to the hosts for their responsiveness to our questions, especially on arrival!

I had such a wonderful stay at Adam’s place! The peace and quiet here made it the perfect escape, and the views—both during the day and at night—are absolutely stunning. Adam and his family are amazing hosts, and I felt truly welcomed and cared for throughout my stay. The whole team was attentive, friendly, and made everything feel seamless. I originally planned to stay for 5 days but ended up extending my stay to over two weeks—in another room in their home—because I was enjoying it so much. If you’re looking for a beautiful, relaxing place with great people, this is it. Highly recommended!

This home is so beautiful, I stayed here with my big family of 9 adults and 7 children and it served us perfectly. Everyone has a comfortable bed to sleep on, our kids enjoyed the spacious house and the outdoors. We had an Easter egg hunt and it was so much fun with the great outdoors. It’s right by the river, we enjoyed the river view. It had hot showering water which I didn’t expect really. The kitchen was spacious and all the ladies of the family fit in well. I am looking to book it for Christmas for my family again if possible because it’s just perfection. The staff is so helpful and so polite ! We didn’t want to leave.

We only stayed one night in Lynns apartment. The apartment was clean, had a good mosquito net and a warer dispenser to refill your bottles. Also Lynn helped us to get from the bus station to the apartment in the middle of the night. However, what we didn't know before that this would cost $10...considering the time of day (or night rather) it was fine. Lynn also helped us organize a special hire for our onward journey the next day. Communication was really good. Wifi didn't work which didn't bother us too much as we only stayed there for the night.

We had a lovely stay in the apartment. The views are amazing and the pool was lovely. Robbie was very helpful, as were the staff in the compound, and the dogs were very friendly. Just a couple of things to note are that access to the property is via a very steep hill, so you need to be fit if you don’t have your own car as most Uber drivers preferred to drop us at the top of the hill and we then walked down to the property, and we would also meet drivers at the top. Also, the veranda was lovely but had a steep drop down to concrete below, so we needed to be vigilant with our child at all times. We had a lovely stay regardless, just important things to be aware of :)

This was my third stay at Rafiki’s apartment. As always, he was very responsive to any questions or needs I had.

The host was very welcoming and made sure we were comfortable

Great place superseded my expectations, felt very comfortable, flexible check-in and check-out times. Loved the overall experience and atmosphere, only downside was the WiFi is slow maybe a change of ISP would go a long way. Grateful for the stay and will definitely be coming back.

I extended my stay at the residence as it was clean, comfortable, peaceful and met my needs.

We enjoyed our stay very much. Reminded me of home in the States. Will be booking again.

Thanks Pauline. You are an amazing host thanks for putting in a lot of thought into the apartment. Will definitely be back and I recommend this property to all that are interested.

The location was truly exceptional, complemented by amenities of the highest standard. The property was impeccably clean, exceptionally comfortable, and thoughtfully equipped to ensure a pleasant stay. I would not hesitate to recommend this residence to anyone considering a visit. Mr. Ronald proved to be an outstanding host courteous, communicative, and accommodating throughout the stay.

Maria’s place was amazing felt like home. Syson was amazing as well, so helpful and always available. If it’s your first trip to Africa or even Uganda I would highly recommend this place. Kampala is an awesome but crazy city and this is a nice quiet private little pocket of paradise. I will be coming back and renting again!

This is the second time I’ve stayed here and would highly recommend everyone to.

Ashley is the host you hardly forget about even after leaving her place -a beautiful human-. She ensured we had a pleasant stay at her place, welcoming us in person, ushering us into the apartment and providing recommendations on activities and restaurants to visit. She was proactive and always available to respond to our queries. The apartment looks same as in the pictures. The kitchen is well equipped and this really helped as we prefer to eat home cooked food. Everything was clean and neat. It will definitely be our choice next time we return to Kampala.

Clare's place is just what I needed in my search for a home away from home. It's easy to locate and is in an area near to all you could need in the form of amenities. She is very responsive and communicates promptly. I would definitely recommend her place and I look forward to being hosted again.

Very clean accommodations in a great location!

This place has the best location in Muyenga. It’s close to the Japanese restaurant Yamasen and Endiro Coffee, making it a convenient choice. The room was exceptionally clean, and with three rooms available, each equipped with its own spotless bathroom and shower, privacy is well maintained. Even if you’re staying alone, you won’t have to share the space with strangers. The apartment is well-equipped with modern appliances, including a washer with a dryer, a refrigerator, and a microwave. For just $50 per night, the quality and amenities provided make this an incredible deal. It’s an especially great option for groups. The only minor downside is that nearby restaurants sometimes play loud music late into the night, and a nearby school has choir sessions early in the morning, which could be slightly noticeable. However, the windows are soundproofed, so closing them helps significantly. Bringing earplugs might be a good idea just in case. Overall, this is a fantastic place to stay!

I had an absolutely wonderful experience . From the moment I arrived, the staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive, making me feel right at home. The condominium was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had all the amenities I needed for a comfortable stay.
