Vacation rentals in Lake Kyaninga

We came with three kids and were a bit nervous about being off the beaten path — but this place turned out to be a gem. The garden is like a wonderland, the house is well-equipped (we cooked pancakes in the morning!), and everyone — especially Arali and Brenda the caretakers — made sure we were safe and comfortable. The rooms are charmingly rustic, though you should know that there’s no hot water on demand. You can ask for it to be heated, but we actually ended up enjoying the cool morning rinse — it woke us up better than coffee. :) There’s currently no direct way to reach the lake, which was a small letdown for our kids. But with all the other experiences — the theatre night with Rayka, the drumming, the monkeys — they didn’t even remember this by the end! Its a very unique place - go check it out!

Quiet lovely home and not very far from fort portal town.

Butterfly cottage is truly idyllic. Set within the forest with tremendous bird life all around. Easy access to knowledgeable local folks who can guide you on wonderful nature walks through the property. Less than 10 minutes from the starting point of Uganda's finest Chimp tracking location and there are a number of beautiful crater lakes nearby. Bigodi swamp and Town are also close and interesting excursions. The property owner is extremely pleasant and helpful Highly recommended for nature loves visiting this part of Uganda.

Gorgeous getaway with very friendly ans helpful staff. We loved the views and how remote it felt! The only issue we encountered was the inaccessibility of the property after rain. However, the staff was very caring and helpful, offering a quick resolution.

What a beautiful place this is? Breathtaking! A wooden lodge with stunning views of the crater lake! Rayka and Brenda are very helpful to make delicious breakfast and give advice to suggest fun activities and nice restaurants! If you love adventure, this is the place for sure!

a great place, quiet with superb views on nature and village life. everything is peaceful here.

My partner and I have been coming to Uganda for long stays over the last few years, and this was most wonderful and authentic Airbnb experience so far. JPs stylish cabin is nestled inside a community that feels very peaceful, surrounded by nature and with a wonderful view of the Rwenzori mountains. yet you can get to the city of Fort Portal in a 15-20 minute boda or car ride. Meeting JP was also one of the highlights of this stay. He is very warm, friendly and great to chat to. He is very responsive and quickly available. He went above and beyond to make sure our stay was comfortable and pleasant. When we informed JP we would be working remotely in the cabin during our 2 week stay he quickly installed a WiFi router and upgraded the solar electricity installation to accommodate us. Highly recommend booking this place during your visit to Fort Portal for a truly pleasant and unique stay!

Jojo is a very warm and welcoming host. Her place was easy to find and she greeted us when we arrived. She also lives in the house and she made us a delicious breakfast in the mornings which filled us up for the whole day. She has a beautiful garden which we enjoyed sitting in and picking gooseberries from. She even sent my friend home with some flower seeds. Overall, a comfortable, quiet and welcoming place if you want to feel right at home in Fort Portal!

Andi and Jennifer were fantastic hosts. Our stay in Fort Portal was awesome.
