The apartment and everything in it is sparkling clean. The kitchen, bathroom, laundry, bedroom and living room facilities are all good quality, clean and organised. Susan and Joel are super hosts who did everything possible to make our stay comfortable. We enjoyed their board games, fruits, snacks and traditional food offers. The location is a walking distance from the town centre and the source of the the Nile. It's definitely the place to be while in Jinja.

The number one thing I loved was Peter Obbo. This man was our lifeline on the island. We arrived in monsoon rain and this man came out to greet us and show us to our room. He cooked us up some of the best meals I’ve ever eaten. He picked us fresh fruit from the garden, showed us around the island and had the best playlist playing the entire time we were by the pool. Peter even special ordered us food/drinks from the mainland when items were missing on the island. No doubt, the best part. He ran the island.

This place was amazing. The hosts made our stay personal and comfortable. The location is out of the way for peace and quiet but still a short drive to the centre. Rooms were spacious and very clean.

Due to a late cancellation we were upgraded to a bigger room. It was very clean and comfortable. We liked the communal area, which had books, magazines and games. We loved the veranda - very peaceful to sit looking out at the garden. Breakfast was good - selection of fruit, juice, coffee or tea, toast, butter and eggs however you want them, prepared perfectly by Joshua. We found the location good.
