Little Paradise

DavidRating, 5 stars20 months ago

I needed a break after a busy week in Kigali and I was pleased to find this amazing home. The team who works at the place were friendly and accommodating. They listened to feedback and so did the guest. The place is 15 Km after Kayonza towards Gatsibo. Not quite at the lake but the view of the lake give min away is great. The food from the Resto was equally great. The place is advertised as entire but at some points the team may need access. I requested the host to make that very clear in their description for guests who may want complete privacy. I would certainly book again as I felt refreshed here.

A nice private place to spend your time with yours

SamRating, 5 stars55 months ago

One of the nicest places ever, you feel you own the lake, amazing views snd very big garden with tree house seating to chill on the swing. The house is beautiful i. Its simplicity. The owner is a great man, have driven all the way from Kigali to us when he learned that our car was stuck in mud, the road to the property is very easy but I decided to drift off the main road to try some off roading stunts, lesson learned, dont miss with the mud in Africa, its different than the mud you know! The housekeeper Patric, is very dedicated and thorough person, hats off to him You can use the boat or the puddle to go around the lake. Try the nearby fish pub, they cook nice fish.

Kivu Sunset Guest House Karongi

Gossio NoéRating, 5 stars11 months ago

I had the pleasure of staying with Evode and his wife. Very welcoming and helpful host. Quite flexible and responsive. They made me great recommendations for restaurants with local food and a walk on Lake Kivu. Evode's wife gave me a hearty breakfast. The apartment looks like the description with a very clean room. The only small downside the apartment is located on the edge of a national road. I was woken up at 6am by traffic. Thank you again for your stay and look forward to returning.
