Vanaf pick-up van de airport tot mijn vertrek hebben de hosts, Derek en Angela er alles aan gedaan om mijn verblijf zo goed mogelijk te maken. Zeer vriendelijk, gastvrij en verwelkomend. De guesthouse ligt in een rustig gebied, dicht bij de lake shore. De kamer is groot, alles zag er mooi en schoon uit en ik heb er heerlijk geslapen na een lange reis. De maaltijden waren ook lekker en Derek en Angela waren heel behulpzaam met regelen of adviseren van vervoer en verblijf elders. Al met al prima en betaalbaar verblijf, highly recommended!

Our hosts, Derek and Angela did everything in their power to make our stay enjoyable. The theme of the site is very authentic and quaint. Full services are available including housekeeping, laundry and wifi. There is a full menu available for breakfast, lunch and dinner and Angela is a great chef. Secrets is clean, safe and very serene. I highly recommend this as a very comfortable accommodation. Dave We had a late flight into Entebbe and so got to the guest house almost close to 2am. Derek and Angela were there and opened the door for us. And then they welcomed us in the main lobby both at that hour happily. Derek assisted us even with carrying our suitcases to the apartment/room, then showed us around the apartment/room. From that time both Derek and Angela made us feel welcome, almost as part of their family. We enjoyed the delicious breakfasts that the great Chef Angela made for us, plus enjoyed Jayden their darling 2 year old's company with us at breakfast most times. Jayden trully brings out the child in us, thanks Jayden. We really appreciated the fact that we had many long days, where we visited family in different cities and got back later at night, and Derek and Angie always opened the door for us without showing us that we were being a 'pain'. We had family in a different part of Entebbe, and could have chosen afterwards to stay closer to them (since they picked us up everyday and dropped us off at the guest house at end of day), however because we really felt home away from home, and the GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE of Derek and Angie we decided to stay here for our entire stay of 10 nights. It trully gave us a break, from our fast pace of life, and their property had a serene environment, clean, quiet, and all Green!! The neighboring sounds of children, Calls to prayer, and occasional cows, pigs, and chickens was a nice reminder of Life and being surrounded by nature - which I personally love! The site has the feel of authenic quaint Uganda -African theme, but with modern interiors - great designs! We appreciated and enjoyed conversations with Angie and Derek. We appreciated tips you shared and provided us, and making us feel like family. Hope we made new friends in Uganda. THANK YOU!!!! I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Secrets Guest House to anyone looking for a good retreat hotel experience while in Uganda. Rachel

Would stay again the hosts were great and this is a nice get away for privacy and relaxation.

We stayed in the Secrets Guest House for 3 nights, the first two at the start of our jouney through Uganda and our last nigth in Uganda. As promissed, Derek picked us up at the airport late in the evening. As we arrived at the Secrets Guest House we were warmly welcomed by Angela. Our stay was very pleasant, the chalet we slept was very comfortable, we feel like home! Angela cooked very good meals for us and Derek was a great bartender! When we ever go back to Uganda, Secrets Guest House is our first choice.

Angella and her family were lovely and very welcoming. The chalet was very clean and all I needed was available. The bed was very comfy and there was hot water. The wifi is very good and the food delicious!

Derek and Angela are great hosts! The accommodation is very comfortable, the food is great and it was a great place to unwind. Very convenient to the airport in Entebbe.

We just had a quick stay at Secrets but Angela, Nick and family made it so great! They made all of our arrangements for us even without notice, they were so helpful and without them we wouldn't have been able to do what we wanted to do. Plus their place was very cute and the room was great, the photos don't do it justice! It was amazing, thank you.

Este alojamiento esta en un hermoso lugar, muy limpio y cómodo, gente simpática y buena comida. Muy recomendable

Alison and Dave were extremely hospitable during my stay in Entebbe. They were quick to respond to my booking and set up a taxi to pick me up from the airport, who waited despite my late flight. The property itself is very peaceful. 3 guest rooms on the 1st floor with comfortable beds, bed nets, and nice clean bathrooms. There is also a nice living room with many travel books. The yard has a beautiful garden, and the 2nd floor has a nice terrace where you can watch the sunset over Lake Victoria in the company of Alison, Dave, and their two friendly dogs. Alison makes breakfast in the morning to my order. Alison and Dave went out of their way to be helpful. They walked me to a local restaurant my first night, and dropped me at the botanical gardens the next morning. My baggage was delayed and they were extremely helpful in helping me contact the relevant people for delivery to their place, and their staff helped keep contact with the delivery driver late at night. Dave acted as a pseudo-travel guide for me, giving me numbers and logistics for various activities I was interested in, even calling the Uganda Wildlife Authority to see how many gorilla permits were available. They were flexible for me staying extra nights. Can't say enough about how much they made me feel at home. Would definitely stay again, and recommend to others!

Dave and Alison were exceptional hosts, lovely and super kind. There beautiful house is set in an idyllic garden with a stunning view. They were very informative and knowledgable of the area. I had a lovely stay and look forward to my next visit with them in Entebbe.

Excellent.

I had a very nice two-day stay. Hosts are very accommodating and seem happy to sit and chat or leave you in peace. They're also knowledgeable about area/country if you need suggestions. Beautiful garden and sweet dogs. Will definitely book again. Their preferred driver is also good.

DISCOVERING ALISON & DAVE ON AIR B&B WAS ONE OF THE LUCKIEST THINGS I HAVE EVER DONE! I originally had planned to be in a tour group to Uganda but it was cancelled at the last moment. So - knowing very little about Uganda - I went to Air B&B and chose to stay with them because they seemed, friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. I was so right! First, their home was everything and even more than they advertise - comfortable, immaculate, private, and beautiful. They had a great staff that not only kept the home clean, spotless and in order but was glad to help with errands. They also have a beautiful garden they tend with love and care, and is great for sitting in the shade to read, write postcards, have a drink or play with their smart and friendly pet dogs. Second, their unending helpfulness! - not only would they help me with errands and seeing local sights, but arranged for a very knowledgeable and friendly private driver to take me for almost a week to some of Uganda's greatest sights. He seemed to know most everyone every place we went. (Once, even, I hurt my leg while on our travels and he immediately found, got me an appointment with and took me to good doctor.) Everything they recommended was perfect - restaurants, parks, the gorilla trekking group, mountain and jungle lodges. Without their help I may have spent a week in or close to Entebbe and Kampala. But thanks to them I traveled widely and saw jungles, mountains, gorillas, lions, elephants, crocodiles, a jaguar and more. Their love for Uganda was infectious. Because of Alison and Dave I had a trip and adventure that I had never expected, will never forget and already want to return and do again! And of course to see them, my new friends, again.

To stay at Leslie's house I a pleasure. She is very friendly and helpful. I will be back next time.

Staying at Leslie's was such a joy! Having stayed in Entebbe on numerous occasions and for extended periods of time, I think there aren't many options better than this. The whole environment is very relaxing and they've done a beautiful job setting up the guest house in the back. It's the little touches that just show how sweet Leslie and Jan are - from fresh banana bread and eggs from their chickens in the morning, to a few extra bottles of wine and soda on hand that you can buy just to make the evenings in Entebbe a little better, to Leslie sharing some delicious homemade gazpacho with me when I arrived in the evening after a long drive from upcountry. Every little thing just made my stay a lovely experience. The whole place felt like a little oasis. Visiting for research, it was great to just sit out on their terrace and get some work done with the lush garden right beside you. And by far, my favourite part was breakfast in the morning and getting to chat with the two of them. They are such kind and welcoming people - I can't imagine anyone wouldn't love staying here for a few days when passing through town. Highly highly recommended!

How to describe this place without seeming hyperbolic? Leslie is a wonderful cook and I had a simple, delicious breakfast on a cool patio next to the promised permaculture garden. It was easy to find, close enough to a main road that boda-bodas are inexpensive and the atmosphere was perfectly relaxing. The space was wonderful, green and fragrant, the most comfortable bed I've slept on in Africa. Add to that the dogs (3 of them and so sweet), the quiet neighborhood and clean, clean, clean bed and bath rooms, what you have is Casa Fiesta!

A really great stay. Perfect for travellers first time or regulars to Uganda. The separate accommodation was spacious and and secure . Every thing was done to make our stay enjoyable. Appreciated all the help and support needed for our onward journey. Recommend highly!

Leslie's place is fantastic. I would definitely stay there again. It was a shame she was not there. Jane, her housekeeper, is great. Fantastic breakfast from the garden, including eggs from her chickens.

I had a great time staying at Leslie's place in Entebbe when I arrived to Uganda from New York. It was a beautiful home that left me feeling refreshed and rejuevenated. It was a treat to stay there and recover from jet lag before making my way to Kampala for the rest of my trip. She has several adorable dogs that were fun to play with, and I enjoyed seeing her permaculture farm. Jane, who helps manage the place, made me feel at home as well as the two other people who stayed with me. There many beautiful flowers and other plants there as well, and the location is stunning.

Lovely, relaxing place to stay in a very good location. Everyone made us very welcome. Loved the friendly dogs. Would definitely stay again.

Faith and Wendy are excellent hosts, the apartment is excellent located, near beach, shops, taxis. Safe neighborhood. The place also is very safety. Faith and Wendy were always comunicated with us

I can really recommend staying at Serene Guesthouse! Its a quiet and lovely place, with a wonderful garden where monkeys are playing around. The breakfast is great, you get a variety of local fruits and perfectly brewed coffe if this is your wish. A big compliment to Mama Janet who helped me organize my trips to town and my matatu tour to Kampala!

I booked at the last minute and the owner were easy to communicate with on my needs and directions. I intended to spend a few days in a quiet place and the staff provided the amount of interaction and help I needed, including transport to the airport and giving me the quiet space during the day I asked for. They were quite friendly. The room was as advertised, clean, , in general a comfortable place. The location was fairly easy to get to, walkable distance to a few places to eat, and in a safe area. The breakfast was a bit basic. I enjoyed my stay and would stay there again without any reservations.

We went to Entebbe for the World Music Festival at Botanical Gardens and wanted to stay in the near of that place. The Oceanic Motel is very good located at the main road Portal Road. We had some problems to find it, but it is very easy: If you are taking a Matatu from Kampala to Entebbe (3000 Schilling) you have to drive till the big Busstation of Entebbe and if you are watching out for a road sign "Oceanic Motel". Or you call Rus and he will tell you. The Motel is near the Victoria Mall if you need internet. Or your asking the woman who is working there. She speaks very well english and is so friendly. Sadly we had no time to go clubbing with her, but next time we will, cause she proposed us to show the best clubs. They also have a nice Restaurant inside and a small but lovely breakfast. Botanical Gardens is also very near. You can go by feet. There is surprisingly no noise of the main road. So it is a quietly place. We are so happy that we could stay at such a friendly and nice place! Thank you:) Sophie and Eshi

Nice hotel with friendly staff and good service.

Claire was a wonderful host and her home is in a quiet area near great lakeside eating. The beds were comfortable and each had a mosquito net. Her home is beautiful as are the grounds and relaxing rear porch. Breakfast was made to order with eggs, bacon,fruit, yogurt and tea. Highly recommended!

The house and gardens are beautiful. The beds were extremely spacious and we had a really wonderful nights sleep. There is hot water, our 4year old son really enjoyed playing with Claire's little boy. Every effort is made to make you comfortable in the home and there is ample opportunity to chat with your host. There is also a kitchen available to use, and a cooked breakfast was provided in the morning. We felt safe and cared for. I recommend this place and plan to stay there again.

Clare's house was a lovely quiet place to rest after long flights. Our son very much enjoyed playing with her child. There is a beautiful garden and the home is only a short walk to a shopping centre. There are a number of good restaurants in the nearby Street that can also deliver to Claire's home. All in all, a very pleasant place to stay.

This is a really nice place close to the beach and places to eat dinner! We hade a pleasent stay and hope to come back to Claire again

Paris was a great host and gave me the perfekt start for a first time backpacking trip in Afrika. She picked me up from airport and was carring well for me. Thank you so much for that!

Nshemerweire and her husband were wonderful hosts,she picked me up from the airport with short notice.They were very helpful and helped us get around ,the place is nice, beautiful and peaceful.I would definitely come back again . Thanks for everything.

Danica and Bahati were great hosts. Staying at their place was a bit like staying over with friends, really. They agreed to host us on short notice, and were super accommodating - even offering to pick us up and assist with our other plans in Uganda. We shared some meals, with Bahati proving a good and enthusiastic cook. The room itself is not large but had all we needed: a nice bed with mosquito bed and plenty of wardrobe/cupboard space to keep your stuff. The living room and kitchen are shared. The house is centrally located on a airy hill that overlooks the lake and is in walking distance of the 'taxi park' and the surrounding market, and of Banga Beach. I would highly recommend Danica and Bahati's place to anyone.

Great place to chill out with spacious garden with trees, beautiful birds. The place has a great view over a unspoilt area of wetland .

I enjoyed my stay. The host was always willing to help and made my stay comfortable.

A nice place, away from the hustle and bustle yet only minutes to walk to good restaurants, the beach and shopping. Comfortable and the host and staff are wonderful.

Great place, comfortable, accessible and very flexible

Fantastic location (a short walk to the beach), security, excellent rooms, very nice host, good area, a very very nice place to stay! If I come back to Entebbe, this is the place where I would stay! Thanks a lot, Marvin!
