Family-friendly vacation rentals in Akright City

Our stay at this property was exceptional. Norbert, the host, is kind, welcoming, and very responsive. He takes great care of his property, making sure everything is in perfect condition. The five rooms were exactly as described—spacious, clean, and ideal for our family. Having a washing machine was a huge bonus, especially with children, as it allowed us to keep up with laundry during our stay. Norbert also rented us his car for the two weeks, which was incredibly handy. The car was clean, spacious, and fit our family perfectly, making it easy to explore the area. The fast and reliable internet connection was another highlight, helping the kids stay on top of their homework and allowing us to stream and stay connected without issues. The property felt very secure, with CCTV and two lovely German Shepherd dogs that we adored. Abdul, the caretaker, was incredibly helpful, always available to assist us, even late at night. His kindness made our stay even more comfortable.

Pendo's facility was so beautiful and restful. One gets the sense of security; ease of access and the serenity from nature in the surrounding area. Pendo's airbnb facility is highly recoomended. To top it all, Pendo is a proactive, friendly, responsive hostess. We would happily recommend this facility to both local and international travellers. Thank you.

My team and I (one American and three Kenyans) had a great stay at Jimmy's lovely house. Pros – The hospitality: Jimmy was very kind and helpful as a host, and Tony, the young man who tends to the house, was wonderfully sweet and went out of his way to help us. The place: With three bedrooms (including one master, ensuite), the house was spacious and very comfortable. It was cool thanks to the breeze, and had nice views of the surrounding hillsides. The area was quiet and we felt very secure, including when walking with Tony to get vegetables, and to sample a Rolex, at 9 pm. Cons – Getting to and from the house: Unless/until you feel comfortable walking 10-15 minutes to the Freedom City mall, your only option for transport will be taxis. The place is not on a map, but rather is several minutes and multiple turns up a hilly dirt road, surrounded by other nice but unlabled houses. To his credit, Jimmy was very helpful in arranging the drivers for us, even at late hours – this was necessary, since we could not have explained how to get to the house. However, in three days we spent $92 on taxis. Wifi: I had hoped to use Uber, but the second downside to the house was the wifi, which was limited and unreliable, despite Jimmy’s efforts. It hadn’t been set up the first day, so he came out the second day to do so, but it ran out of credit in 10 minutes. He topped it up, but even then the connection was very weak until midnight. Conclusion – Not the best place for a working trip, but lovely for a relaxing stay. You may be a bit disconnected, but you will be well cared-for. Just be sure to factor in the cost of transportation!

We had another great stay with Susan and John. Susan is a nice and extremely helpful woman, doing everything she can to make our stay as pleasant as possible. The house is great so all in all it is a lovely place to stay, the only downside is that the nearby Miracle Center Cathedral is rather noisy during the evening, but when the renovation of the church is finished later this year, this will stop. We are looking forward to coming back

At Elizabeth’s apartment you’re gonna find a home away from yours. Security first off is great; with a day watch person and a night security team. The perimeter wall surrounding the premises appears top notch too. I personally never once worried for my safety, unlike previous times I’ve lived elsewhere in Kampala. The road close by is being used as a detour by several suburb residents, so expect a little noise during rush hour times. Besides that little noise there is pure serenity in house and outside, in the gardens south of the premises. The staff is ever attentive, so helpful, always smiling regardless time of the day, and most importantly so respectful. Even on cleaning days they worked on our schedule and never intruded in our space. The a/c was a little hard to work initially, but Elizabeth gave us instructions and it was smooth sailing afterwards. Observe the solar energy guidelines provided in the apartment and use the power meaningfully. Overall, this is a place i came to love and call home. Everything is as advertised, except that neon shower: that’s way better in reality than in the pictures. I would definitely recommend and also stay here again when in Kampala. Thank you Elizabeth.

Thanks so much. Joe was so kind to let us also stay a bit longer than check-out time given our late flight. Soon again

Our stay on Bulago island at Tom's house was just great. From the house, beautifully situated above the water on the far west tip of the island, you have an amazing view over the lake, which gets even better with every step you climb up behind the house up to the hill, which is the highest point of the island. The house is fully equipped with all you need and Tom is an awesome host! We'll soon be back.

My family and I had a great stay at the cottage. My 18 month old had space and play... run and even a swing. We enjoyed the silence ... a great gateway from city life. The view of lake Victoria was amazing...( a true gem )

The place is sparkling clean and comfortable with a close walk to the main road . The host is so friendly and such an awesome host.she even went a mile by picking me up from the airport which was a touch of class .the apartment looks even better in person and I recommend anyone looking to travel not to look any further.for more on my great stay at the apartment so all my friends in Europe you can WhatsApp me so I can share photos of my stay on +447496077245

It was a joy for me and my partner to stay at Jenny's place. The location was calming and peaceful; a good getaway from the hustle and bustle of Kampala. The bnb is located 15min from Bule Landingsight where we docked with a boat organised for us by Jenny. The boda boda ride to the tucked-away sanctuary was just as scenic as the journey on Lake Victoria. We specifically enjoyed the privacy of the bnb including how quiet it was and the outside kitchen with all amenities. The birds and other interesting wildlife spotted on the property were an extra perk for me. The staff was helpful, discrete and dedicated to helping us have a good time. We will certainly be back in future.

The house is nice and and the staffs are very help and more respect, sit outside is peaceful.

Lovely modern apartment, good security and somebody always on site to help with anything we needed. Excellent communication, quiet location but also many shops and restaurants within a short walk.

zeer vriendelijke en duidelijke communicatie. Behulpzaam bij het aanvragen van een extra nacht.

This house is a gem and can’t see myself staying anywhere else when in the country. The host is professional, flexible, understanding and enlightened. The location was spot on for us - away from the chaos of the city without being remote. The caretakers were just priceless to say the least. In short, I can’t state enough how beautiful this place is. And, so many more good things to say like the space, compound, security, aesthetics, price/ value, furnishing, ambience, etc. Except the connecting road from the main road, I can barely think of any faults at this point.

We had a great time at this place. The caretaker was helpful and considerate. The private garden provided a great playground and featured the occasional wild birds as well as fresh fruits. Definitely recommendable

wow what a gem! we had a really beautiful stay with Alison. The views were unbeatable, the swimming was divine, we ate like kings and loved hearing about Alison's colorful life. we saw an incredible array of bird life and watching the otters swim up and down the bay was a real treat. her spot is really special. your stay in Uganda is incomplete without a stop over on Bulago Island.

Everything was perfect! The place and the garden are really beautiful and quiet, it's a birds paradise. It is located in a small village where you can walk around and meet the friendly locals. Mary and Tim were so flexible and friendly and we felt at home. We highly recommend it

was my second time at Bernadettes place and like the first time allready i felt back at home, i will definitely come back again

I must say I had a brilliant time at NVilla apartments. It's a quiet and homely place. The neighborhood has lots of modern and high-end properties. It feels really secure and has a full-time gateman. The rooms are Spacious and comfortable. Colin my host was very hospitable and quick whenever I needed him. The apartments are at the top of Mutungo hill and the view from the roof terrace is absolutely stunning. I had the swimming pool to myself most of the times- just the way I like it I definitely got more than I paid for. My stay there was really short though, but I'll BE BACK

Perfect location for a conference at Munyonyo Commonwealth Resort. Jones is very helpful and ready to help. Gave us a brief of the buganda kingdom, he graciously requested his driver to drop me at the resort on the first day. My friend came to see the place and loved it as well she took the spare room. I'd definitely recommend.

The management are every flexible. We started out getting upgraded to a better room. We were asked about improvements by management and we came up with a few and it was immediately implemented.
