This place is located off the beaten track just crossing a whole village by the lake . Massively quiet, incredible relaxing and with a great friendly team. This is a perfect place to spend a few days away from everything just enjoying nature. A gem.

Gorgeous property, a really unique experience. They organised a boat trip for us, went kayaking, had massages and relaxed enjoying the river view. It was amazing and one of our favourite hotels we've stayed at to date.

The place is beautiful, peaceful and charming. The delicious community dinner is a great way to get to meet new people. I loved the bike trip & kayaking on the lake. The message was brillant as well. All is wonderful.

the property is secluded and within a rural part of Rwanda and is simply magical. 1 day is simply not enough time, i recommend a min. 2 day stay so you can really rest and enjoy the property. there’s lots of nature around you and a lot of activities you can do like kayaking, massage, a community walk and bird watching so there’s plenty that you can do while also ensuring you relax. the food was really amazing, especially the communal dinner, the bed was super comfortable and there was plenty of hot water! honestly there’s nothing to fault - it was the perfect stay.

Such as incredible stay at Umva! I felt at home right away. Diane, Janet and Joan are very caring and provided us with an amazing service. Jado was great to help us do kayaking and tennis. And the chef cooked us a delicious diner. My favorite part of this place remains the design and architecture, unlike anything I had seen before. I will come back for sure, very soon I hope.

UMVA Muhazi is AMAZING! The views, the structure and design of the space, the food, the activities, the hospitality and attention to details all contributed to a wonderful stay and escape from Kigali! I came for just a day mid-week and returned to Kigali feeling so refreshed. The staff are friendly, attentive, and polite, and were always ready to help out. The clay tennis court with a view of lake Muhazi makes UMVA probably one of my favorite places to play and I am sure that Rafael Nadal would agree if he gave it a try :) I will definitely be back!

The location is so convenient from Kigali, making this the perfect getaway. From start to finish we the experience at UMVA was incredible. We were greeted warmly by the staff who knew us by name, offered us a delicious welcome juice, and ushered us to our rooms. The rooms were so well-designed with beautiful architecture. The shower was amazing. We spent the afternoon kayaking, standup paddleboarding, and playing tennis. We joined the other guests for a community dinner, which was the best part of the trip. The 6-course meal was sublime, each dish was delicious and beautifully displayed, and we enjoyed getting to know the other guests while we dined. We all sat by the fire after dinner. The following morning we had a delicious breakfast, spent more time kayaking on the lake and playing tennis, before sadly departing back to Kigali. We will certainly be back many times, and I highly recommend UMVA Muhazi as your next Rwanda destination.
