It was above and beyond my expectations. Our room was very big, equipped with everything we needed and had a beautiful lake view. The hotel staff was amazing too, especially Phiona and also Stuart and Wilson! Definitely a great place for nature lovers. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/s11-p724873f0-68cf-11e8-9e2f-02427cbe7472-original.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/s1203-p079e3d50-68cf-11e8-90f5-02426f8ac431-original.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/s1300-p4894a420-68cf-11e8-90f5-02426f8ac431-original.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/s144-p8e8acc20-68cf-11e8-9e2f-02427cbe7472-original.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Anna Stayed 3 nights in May 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Conny 2 Mar 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Parkachtige tuin aan het Victoriameer. Twee heerlijke dagen bijkomen van een rondreis door Uganda Prima kamer , aan het meer, met zwembad. Ontbijt op bed .Mooie tuin , met vogels en aapjes. Vriendelijk en behulpzaam personeel.Eigen taxi service, uurtje van het vliegveld.Prima keuken,wel beperkte menukeuze. Alcohol alleen per fles verkocht, geen witte wijn.Goede prijs/ kwaliteit verhouding. ##### Conny Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Peter 24 Jan 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Secluded resort It was a bit of rocky ride to the hotel but well worth it- almost safari like. However, when we arrived at the resort, it's secluded, peaceful, relaxing and clean with birds chirping around the compound and even some wild life (monkeys). We saw the New Year by the log fire on the beach- it was lovely- nice chalets and staff although the service was occasionally below par. Wifi was only available in the office but on the last night the manager gave us a complimentary connection to the chalet. ##### Peter Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2017 ### 6/10 Okay #### Paul 21 Jan 2018 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort #### Et sted med potientiale Stedet ligger fantastisk, hvis man ønsker at slappe af. Men der er ikke meget andet at lave end at ligge ved stranden og poolen. Poolen var ikke rengjort, og kunne derfor ikke bruges. Mad og service fra personalet var meget godt, men der er problemer med strømmen. Så øl, vand m.m. var ikke kolde, der var ikke strøm på værelset i dagtimerne. Herudover stod der i beskrivelsen, at der var gratis transport til og fra lufthavnen. Der var ikke tilfældet. Det kostede cirka 30 USD hver vej. ##### Paul Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2018 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 13 Jan 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort Disliked: Staff & service Staff try but are poorly trained. Shuttle service to airport is expensive. Hotel is at the end of a long, hilly, small dirt road. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jan 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### SUSAN 30 Dec 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Nice place pity about power issues Wonderfull location on shores of Lake Victoria. About 10km of dirt road to reach it, some of it challenging without a 4x4. Service and food were good. The resort is let down by lack of electricity. The rooms had no electric during the days and went off several hours before daylight. They claim to be using solar energy backed up with generators but think this is a cost saving exercise. Beers are kept in a fridge at the bar but unfortunately the fridge is rarely working so beers are warm.. the pool was clean and a nice area to sit. ##### SUSAN Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2017 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Ekaterina 29 Dec 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### The gate was closed After a very long journey on a dusty and bumpy road in the darkness I have reached the Garuga Beach Resort Hotel only to face the closed gate and switched off phone. Apparently it was fully booked and they somehow missed my reservation. Not recommended. ##### Ekaterina Stayed 1 night in Dec 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sascha, Hagen, Germany 31 Aug 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A pearl at the lake victoria This resort is definetly worth a visit Beautiful landscape, well kent, with extremely friendly and caring staff (especially Gabriel and Cacey). Rooms are clean and spacious, food is great and tasty, pool area invites to relax. Wild birds and monkeys strolling around in the morning, the sound of the lake waves let you sleep like a baby. It's a place worth to visit. Will definetly come back. ##### Sascha Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 18 Aug 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Relax, Swim and Chill Lovely quiet place, very hospitipal and friendly. Monkeys came to visit from the near by forest. Great swimming pool. Intend to return again soon ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2017 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Kampala Nile Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seeta-Hotels-Kampala-Nile-Resort.h57353273.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Sol e Mar - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Albufeira-Hotels-Hotel-Sol-E-Mar.h1515517.Hotel-Information) > > [Latitude 0 Degrees](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kampala-Hotels-Latitude-0-Degrees.h36624341.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Nenagh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nenagh-Hotels.d602504.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Lake Bunyonyi Rock Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kabale-Hotels-Lake-Bunyonyi-Rock-Resort.h17955003.Hotel-Information) > > [AluaSoul Orotava Valley - Adults only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Puerto-De-La-Cruz-Hotels-AluaSoul-Orotava-Valley.h1342622.Hotel-Information) > > [AC Hotel by Marriott Bratislava Old Town](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bratislava-Hotels-AC-Hotel-By-Marriott-Bratislava-Old-Town.h2699356.Hotel-Information) > > [Caravan to rent trecco bay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Caravan-To-Rent-Trecco-Bay.h40005587.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Dubai Festival City Mall](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dubai-Festival-City-Mall-Hotels.0-l6123360-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Sidera Kirman Premium - Ultra All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alanya-Hotels-Kirman-Sidera-Luxury-Spa-All-Inclusive.h14707342.Hotel-Information) > > [Kingfisher Safaris Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jinja-Hotels-Kingfisher-Safaris-Resort-Hotel.h34478086.Hotel-Information) > > [Kagi Maldives Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kagi-Island-Hotels-Kagi-Maldives-Spa-Island.h48455787.Hotel-Information) > > [Millennium Hotel London Knightsbridge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Millennium-Hotel-London-Knightsbridge.h5813.Hotel-Information) > > [Pakuba Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pakuba-Hotels-Pakuba-Safari-Lodge.h37796831.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with Waterpark in Alicante Province](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Alicante-Province-Waterpark-Hotel.0-0-d6023825-twaterparkhotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Hotel Indigo Krakow - Old Town by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Hotel-Indigo-Krakow-Old-Town.h15438301.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Argentina](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Argentina.d8.Hotel-Destinations) > > [Astor York - Hostel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Astor-York.h27546419.Hotel-Information) > > [Phoenix Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Phoenix-Hotel.h11006.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from London (LHR) to Kosice (KSC)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/ksc/london-to-kosice) > > [Flights from Southampton (SOU) to Vienna (VIE)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/sou/vie/southampton-to-vienna) > > [Flights from Athens (ATH) to Zakynthos (ZTH)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/ath/zth/athens-to-zakynthos) > > [Flights from Atlanta (ATL) to Chicago (ORD)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/atl/ord/atlanta-to-chicago) ### Cars > [Car hire in Royal Tunbridge Wells](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Compare-Cheap-Car-Hire-In-Royal-Tunbridge-Wells.d179921.Car-Hire-Guide) ### Activities > [Things to do in Algarve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Algarve.d182215.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Fortaleza Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fortaleza.d6142832.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### General > [Visit Salemi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Salemi.dx6060212) > > [Visit Dominica](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dominica.dx49)
