"So yes this was 100% a white lotus type experience. That said. The service was impeccable. We went to kinigi for gorilla trekking and Sambora coordinated every detail beyond the permits. They did everything from finding the right outerwear to finding us a great driver. Meals were delicious.

"Total Disaster When we arrived after a 4 hour drive, they pretended to to be aware of our booking. There was a wedding going on and I believe that was the reason why they kicked out all "ordinary" bookings. The staff was extremely unfriendly and rude. They said this is not their problem and kicked us out, not even thinking about apologizing or even offer to help us finding alternative accommodation.... Unfortunately, based on this experience, I can only advise everybody to avoid this...

"great place"

Umutuzo Lodge Kivu Lake

10/10 Excellent

"The property is lovely. Perched on the hillside, you feel like you’re on top of the world every day at breakfast with panoramic view of Lake Kivu. Our cabin was the closest to the lake which offered us unobstructed views from our patio which was the perfect spot to read or watch an incoming rain storm. It was a bit more of a hike uphill to breakfast and dinner but it was worth it. Plus we were also closer to the pool which was really one of the deciding factors why we picked Umutozo. You also have to take an outdoor shower while you’re there! Food was tasty and very fresh, we said hi to the on-site animals a couple of times. We enjoyed chatting with other guests and the owner Philippe at meal times. The staff was also great including Olivier who took us on our excursion to Napoleon Island and was very engaging to talk to on the boat ride there. I do recommend having a 4wd vehicle since there is a substantial amount of driving on unpaved roads required to reach the property. Very much enjoyed our time spent here."
