The lodge has been finished to the highest standards. It hits the absolute sweet spot of combining chic with homely. Savine, your host at the lodge, is friendly, informative and extremely helpful. She has recruited and trained her team extremely well as they are all, from the security guard at the gate onwards, lovely and professional in their roles. If you choose to stay here you will not regret it.

WONDERFUL PARADISE IN THE HEART OF RWANDA. Definitely it was the best choice. After a long trip we couldn't imagine how beautiful and relaxing this piece of paradise is. Everything was PERFECT, all details were absolutely cared for: Spacious room in an individual home with very elegant and local decoration. Best bathroom ever!! Huge bed, super comfortable. Amazing view to lake from the room. Wonderful terrace to enjoy a cup of coffee. The garden, the beach was extremely cared and clean. Breakfast and dinner was unbelievable. The staff was SUPER SUPER NICE, they helped with EVERYTHING. And the owner, such an impressive woman in charge of Paradise. Best regards to Maxi, the friendly little baby dog We cannot thank you for such beautiful memories

Lovely location. I enjoyed taking walks on the steep stone-paved sidewalks. In the evening I was able to enjoy two cold beer drinks while talking to friends around a nice fire pit. The open flames added to the relaxation and peace of the well-landscaped gardens.

really beautiful place. Has a lot of character with an incredible garden, and the safari tents are very interesting to stay in. Has an AMAZING view of the lake kivu too, which is pretty special when combined with the garden. Awesome shop with lots of local crafts with proceeds funding projects to help disadvantaged local kids and women in period poverty. Nice open restaurant/bar area, with surprisingly good food and breakfast. Had the nicest shower view I've ever had. Good tours with Koffi, who was a very friendly guide.

The balcony was nice and the view of the lake was great. The buffet breakfast has a lot of options and was tasty. The dinner buffet was quite overpriced ($30/adult) but you can order a la carte meals from the menu for a reasonable price. It was nice to have direct access to the lake and a bit of sand to enjoy. I was traveling with 2 young kids and enjoyed having a playground on the property. The location is good and you can walk to some nearby restaurants.
