Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Lake Victoria

We stayed at Katie’s place for a couple weeks and it felt like home away from home as we used to live in this area of Kampala. It was clean and comfortable. The upstairs and downstairs verandahs were both very nice, with a beautiful view of the city from the top one. The co-host Candice was the best Airbnb host ever! She answered all my questions and was super flexible with me when we needed extra help. Sam and Isaak, the guards, were helpful and friendly as well as Sarah who came to clean throughout our stay.

The solar house very quickly became our second home over the 7 months we stayed there. We were beyond thankful for Damian, Anna, and their precious children who were extremely kind, helpful, available and attentive. The solar house is an ideal location for families. Our two young children loved the home and the compound and it was within walking distance of their school. The solar house is a bright and welcoming home - and it has smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detector which are nearly non-existent in Mwanza! We highly recommend this house for short or long term stays. We hope very much to be back! Asante sana Damian, Sam & Ina!

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.

Ashraf's place is as displayed. Very clean and comfortable. The host was kind to let me checkin early and there was care taker on stand by to help with anything. Definately a rebook when in Kampala next.

Very good host it feel like you are at home.the guard was absolutely brilliant.private and very clean

Our experience was absolutely fantastic, and I cannot thank the Musiimentas enough for being such incredible hosts. They stayed in touch throughout our visit, frequently checking in to ensure we were comfortable and accommodating any needs we had with great flexibility. Their hospitality truly enhanced our stay. The property was beyond perfect for our group. It effortlessly accommodated all seven of us, providing ample rooms and parking space. Additionally, the location was ideal. We found ourselves conveniently close to city attractions while enjoying the safety and tranquility of the area. Overall, we had an amazing time and would highly recommend The Mbuya Residence to anyone looking for a wonderful getaway. Thank you once again for everything!

Everything perfect, clean and tidy house, well furnished, excellent hot water, there is security at the gate and a lady who manages the cleaning. Also had very fast laundry service. The lady referred me to a trusted driver and restaurants. Only negative note, there was no soap in the house but I had been told in advance. There is a mosque nearby that makes the call to prayer very noisy at night and many dogs barking, but obviously the host can't do anything about it and in Uganda they are common things.

If you look for a place to rest after a long trip Or a long day you got it here. If you look for an amazing private quiet place here you got it

Alice was so friendly and reachable, good hospitality definitely recommending it more and more and good place for relaxation

A home away from home. Simply love it.

A very modern, minimalistic space that’s super comfortable. Amenities match the listing perfectly and are easy to use. The host is friendly, extremely helpful, and quick to respond. Highly recommend!

The Apartment was really nice and it looked exactly like the pictures. Stuart was always available and very helpful, and the caretaker also took good care of us. All in all, we felt very comfortable; it was a great stay in Kampala. Thank you!

Great place,i would recommend for anyone. But some bit of loud music in the neughbourhood bars , cars , motorcyles and passing people especially on bedroom sides

I really wouldn’t review because I would want to keep it a secret, but the place is great. I believe I also got a discount from the normal rate. I had to switch Airbnb locations in the middle of the night and it went smoothly and quickly.

I enjoy iris’ home.. I always look forward to staying in her place !!

This is my 4th stay at Carlos' place, definitely a home away from home for me. The apartment is located in a quiet neighborhood, very private and peaceful, the interior is well put together, free of clutter, clean and beautiful. Serenity Homes offers more than just a place to stay, it offers comfort, class with pristine amenities like the Air conditioners, coffee maker, warm showers, teas, security camera and so much more... 😊 The host is friendly, responsive and ensures that your needs are met to ensure a comfortable stay. Thank you Carlos for having us and we shall definitely come back.

Overall great stay, would highly recommend anyone visiting Kampala area to stay in this place. In the pictures, there is no dining table so I asked for one. But when I reached the place, I was surprised to find that Geofrey had a table already placed upon my request. Would definitely come back!

Jackline the host was very responsive and made it super easy for me. The apartment is well furnished and pristine clean. I was especially relieved to learn that it had air con given how humid Kampala was in February. Definitely worth the value.

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.

I like this place. it's spacious, luminous, and close to shops and restaurants. it's a quite place and the swimming pool is an added plus to entertain children during the weekend. The apartment very clean and the host very responsive

I have stayed in this flat before for a few months, and so I already knew what expected me and was incredibly satisfied. I already LOVED the place last time, great apartment, great neighborhood, great people, great city, and this stay only confirmed this. Thank you so much to the hosts!!

Fantastic place to stay in Kampala we loved the location and the pool. Happy went above and beyond our expectations both in her responses and kind touches - it was my birthday and she arranged cake and flowers :-) Thanks Happy see you next time.

I had the pleasure of staying at a beautiful Airbnb in Mbuya, Kampala, and it was an incredible experience. The apartment was spotless, thoughtfully designed, and felt like a luxurious home-away-from-home. The host’s responsiveness was exceptional, always prompt and professional, making us feel truly valued. The location was perfect—situated in a serene, upscale neighborhood close to Kampala’s best dining, shopping, and entertainment spots. It was easy to locate and made exploring the city hassle-free. My friends and I loved the spaciousness, comfort, and tranquility of the apartment. From cozy bedrooms to a fully equipped kitchen, everything was tailored to ensure our stay was seamless. A heartfelt thank you to Judith and Annette for their outstanding hospitality—they went above and beyond to make us comfortable. Their kindness added a special touch to an already amazing trip. This Airbnb is a gem, and I highly recommend it for anyone visiting Kampala. I would happily return 💓
