Vacation rentals with outdoor seating in Lake Victoria

Beautiful house, amazing view and very helpful house keepers.

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!

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!

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 🎉

We stayed at the Heart Bay Cottages for 2 nights. When you walked down the garden (huge garden-- nice for kids), you will find a beautiful view on the nile. We were welcome by Hope and Alex who work there and are very friendly and helpful. They will help with anything you need. We love the attention given to the guest - we found a fruit basket, bread, butter waiting for us on top of the other available condiments. The place was clean, towels, bed sheets, blankets all available. There is some chairs at the front where you can relax in peace and quiet. The Wifi works perfectly. We went for a walk around the place and loved the surrounding. You can easily access activities such as Rafting/Quad etc (Nile River Explorer can even come and pick you directly from there in the event you make the quorum required). We had friends staying 500m away and we were all picked from nearby. John is very very responsive and checks on you prior and during the stay.

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%

LOVED it so much we came back! I booked it last minute on the day as we had to check out of a different AirBnB a day early due to a power cut and no alternatives however Mbabazi was very quick to respond and truly saved the day by letting us stay at his lovely home with such short notice. Much appreciated and we’ll definitely be back again in the future 🙌🏾😁

Staying at this Airbnb in Jinja was an absolute delight! From the moment we arrived, Susan and Joel went above and beyond to make sure everything was seamless. Their kindness, helpfulness, and attention to detail truly elevated our entire stay. The house itself was exceptionally clean — you can tell real care goes into maintaining the space. The interior decor was tasteful, cozy, and thoughtfully designed, creating the perfect atmosphere to relax and unwind. Whether it was the comfort of the space, the peaceful surroundings, or the genuine hospitality from the hosts, everything about this stay exceeded expectations. I couldn’t recommend it more and I’m already looking forward to returning. A real gem in Jinja!

The caretaker was a friendly guy and take care of our belongings when we were not in the house. I will come there again and recommend the place to anyone.

I recommend it and I would love to stay here again ❤️❤️

I had the pleasure of staying at this apartment in Uganda for three weeks, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The location was excellent—convenient, safe, and situated in a lovely neighborhood. The apartment itself was perfect for two people, well-equipped and very comfortable with nice balcony. A special thank you to Patrick, the owner’s brother, who truly made the stay exceptional. He was always available, incredibly kind, and went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. Anytime I needed something, he was just a phone call away and always happy to help. His attentiveness and friendliness made a big difference in our overall experience. The property felt extremely safe and secure, with surveillance and guards on-site, which gave us great peace of mind throughout our stay. Overall, it was a wonderful experience—clean, cozy, and very well-managed. I would highly recommend staying here and would definitely return. Thank you again for an amazing stay!

Alvin communicated well from the moment I was considering his apartment until when I left.He got on the phone to give guidance on how to arrive at the apartment when the driver was lost. He put a lot in the apartment and it's exactly as it is and even better (if I can say so). He also ensure that I had everything, even went out to make a last minute purchase to achieve this. He had Dennis (the caretaker) available to support as needed as well and it was easy to gain access to the apartment. I would absolutely stay here whenever I am in town and I would highly recommend.

It is one of a kind selene place for those who want to be in a very silent, tidy, fine place. I can't give a better description of this place but it is a special one. I would love to go back over and over.

My wife and I recently spent a few days at Eric Wilkins Apartments in Kampala, and we had a truly pleasant experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome and ensured that we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The apartment was clean, spacious, and well-furnished, with all the essentials for short- or long-term accommodation. We especially appreciated the peaceful environment, the reliable internet connection, and the overall attention to detail in both the design and upkeep of the space. The location was also ideal—conveniently situated yet quiet, offering a great balance between accessibility and relaxation. Whether you're in Kampala for business or leisure, Eric Wilkins Apartments offers excellent value for money. We highly recommend it and would definitely stay there again. Lewis & Laurianne

Winnie was very nice and help us in the beginning till the end of our stay in Kampala. I recommande this place felt like home.

First time in Kampala and this Airbnb was perfect! The house was exactly like the photos—clean, cozy, and in a quiet, safe neighborhood. The host was super responsive and helpful throughout. If you’re visiting Kampala and want a reliable, welcoming place to stay, I highly recommend this Airbnb. I’d definitely stay here again!

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

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.

The apartment was spotless upon arrival. Very comfortable space with a nice view to the lake. Would definitely come back. Big thank you to Leah who helped me throughout my stay.

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 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 💓

It was a nice apartment and compound. The security was friendly and helpful. I only wished the mosquito net in the main bedroom was functional; it would not close, and the washing machine would not work for me. Other than that, It would be hard to find a better two-bedroom, two-bathroom unit at this price point in Kisumu.

I was pleased with the stay. The rooftop has a spectacular view and the host was very attentive. I would stay again.
