    I think it’s best to stay for only a few nights as the noise from the water is constant. But it’s totally worth the stay! And I loved the noise from the waterfalls when sleeping!

    The staff, food, location were all perfect

    8:30 is too early to close and 10am is too early to check out. The absence of any staff on the island after 8 except for the security guards doesn’t feel safe

    I would like to think of myself as well travelled but, this is by far, a wonder.. The beautiful nature that’s Uganda coupled with intent to have something beautiful by the proprietors makes Lemala a sheer beauty. The staff are exceptional! Armstrong that welcomed me from the boat, Hannington at the reception that made my check in extra smooth, Justine that served me with utmost care and politeness, Moses for the evening shift that didn’t tire serving me and taking a million photos of me(solo traveller chronicles). Honestly, all of them were amazing but special shout out to the CHEF. Every meal was better than the last. I’m so glad u ushered the year in living in paradise. I will definitely be back and highly recommend.

    Everything. It is the most unique, exotic place I have ever visited. There are only 10 individual rooms set on an island in the middle of the Nile. The food is 5 star. The service is excellent and the views are incredible. Words cannot describe this place. You have to see it to fully understand.

    I have nothing to complain about the property in terms of staff, accommodation and food. However, I think the place does not worth its price. More than USD 1000 per night was way too much.

    I loved the Nile views, the design of the room, the food was great, the staff was very nice and polite.

    I didn‘t have the best pre-booking experience. I didn‘t like that my asking for a wildwater facing room (if possible) was met with a $30 charge for a „specific room request“. (The wildwater facing rooms are not per se better, as it‘s in turn quite noisy so it‘s really just personal preference). Maybe just me, but I never experienced that at any property before. I was also charged $200 PER WAY to and from Entebbe airport even though website and info at the hotel itself states $140. They said they had just changed the prices. I hope that‘s correct, but safe to say before arriving I felt less hospitality, more profit-seeking. Me now nevertheless loving the property and giving a good recommendation is really a testament to the incredibly nice staff and beautiful property!

    Outstanding staff! Geofrey, Stella, Joseph and GM Dedan just to name a few. The property and rooms are beautiful, and the food, both more Western style and African, we’re outstanding!

    Wonderful lodge in Uganda, offering an idyllic and anamzing experience

    At the beginning of June, it's already the start of the high-season and the prices are much higher than one month before (but its is still worth it). At night, you may have some insects getting inside the room, mainly on the ceiling.

    This lodge is wonderful: you are constantly in front of the river (quite wildwaters indeed: the lodge is well-named, and it's out of question to go swim in that area). It's an idyllic place. The staff members are super nice and very well-trained. The place has an excellent restaurant and I would recommend to book with the three meals per day included. The chef and his team are excellent and provide high-quality food with a lot of different options (from the eggs Benedict to the beef filet to the gaspacho soup, exverything was great). In the room, the bed is good, there is WiFi and the bathroom is nice. It's perfect to relax and chill.

    It was annoying that, having already paid once, I was asked to pay again because they had no record. I then had to have it refunded 10 days later.
