Beautiful views, gorgeous room and bathroom, comfortable bed with a good mosquito net. Waking up to so many bird songs we’d never heard before. The team were so kind and helpful. Including on one day where we couldn’t find a coffee plantation we were trying to get to. One of the employees who knows the area well jumped in the car to help us.. and it wasn’t close by!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Umutuzo Lodge, and I can confidently say it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The lodge is nestled in a breathtaking location, offering stunning scenery that made every moment feel like a retreat into nature's beauty. The room was nothing short of amazing. It was impeccably clean, thoughtfully decorated, and incredibly comfortable. The attention to detail in the room's design made it a perfect blend of luxury and coziness. What truly set this stay apart was the exceptional staff. Every member of the team went above and beyond to ensure the stay was perfect. Their warmth, professionalism, and willingness to assist with any request made a significant difference and added a personal touch that I greatly appreciated. From the stunning scenery and beautifully appointed rooms to the outstanding service provided by the staff, everything exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend the lodge to anyone seeking a memorable and relaxing getaway.

    The location is great, with a private beach to enjoy the lake Kivu and take a boat ride. Excellent food and warm welcoming like always. The guests can see the fishing activities during the sunset, really amazing experience.
