The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Delicious Dining Experience

The food at Lake Bunyonyi Eco Resort was absolutely good. From hearty soups to delicious hot fudge banana sundaes, every meal was a treat! Breakfast on the veranda, coupled with unexpected entertainment from a cheeky monkey stealing bananas, made our experience even more nice. I truly enjoyed the variety provided, though a bit more local cuisine could enhance the experience! Highly recommend tasting their offerings.

Peaceful Island Retreat

The atmosphere at Lake Bunyonyi Eco Resort is simply stunning. I enjoyed leisurely walking around the island and reveling in the surrounding wildlife, including zebras and waterbucks grazing nearby. The peaceful environment, complemented by the sound of nature, was a fantastic way to unwind. I even took a sunset canoe ride, which was the highlight of my stay. A perfect retreat for anyone looking to escape and connect with nature.

The food was delicious, featuring both local and foreign cuisines. Although the wait for meals was sometimes longer than expected, it wasn't a big deal. We enjoyed various activities, including hiking and boat cruises, and felt completely welcomed by the staff. Overall, a wonderful family-friendly getaway with minor dining timing issues.
