We have spent three nights at the Overland Resort. The location is very beautiful and the gardens are as well. As almost everywhere, the staff is very kind and puts in a lot of effort. Special thanks to Elliot! The room was clean and we had warm water, only the power supply turns off randomly every now and then. Unfortunately, the food takes very long and tastes okay. The Menue is very diverse. Yet, a lot of the dishes were not available, as well as Milk for breakfast, which they restocked after complaining. Due to off-season, the hotel did permanent maintenance work without having informed us beforehand. That led to a lot of noise during the day and also while eating. If they would have warned about it online, we could have had the chance to avoid coming here. Also, the villages around tend to play loud music until the late hours, so unfortunately, we did not get to find the rest we were hoping to. All in all it was ok, but if you are coming to find quiet as we did, you should consider going somewhere else. Since we can't give 2.5 stars, we will rather give 3 than 2.

This hotel is truly a resort facility, not the usual safari lodge. Set on the shores of Lake Bunyonyi, the views are spectacular! The room where we stayed was similar to a standard western hotel. It was spacious and clean, but the beds a bit lumpy. We had the misfortune to arrive with a group of partying 20-somethings who celebrated with great gusto in the next room until 4 in the morning, so it’s difficult to call our stay restful. We wished during the night that we had a method of contacting staff to intercede on our behalf with the neighbors, as we were reluctant to confront them. The food, however, was wonderful, the gift shops well-stocked with all things Uganda, and the staff were helpful and pleasant, even coming to our room after hours to help us figure out how to get some hot water. I can imagine that under different circumstances, it would be a nice place to stay.

Was here to attend the Bunyonyi Marathon. A lovely, scenic but brutal run up and down the hills of Kigezi, overlooking the beautiful Lake Bunyonyi. This marathon only gets better. This year they had this lovely medal and the most colourful tees. The service on the route was excellent as was the after run camaraderie.

This was the largest place we stayed - situated on the Bunyonyi lakeside. They had everything - wooden huts, rooms in a hotel, camping area, tents on stilts and en-suite stone cabins. We were in a stone cabin at the very far end of the resort which had a lovely view over a bit of the lake. From here you could explore the area, take a boat ride, go for a guided walk, swim in the lake (brrrrr - but someone did!!!) or just sit and appreciate the place. We even saw some otters in the lake while we did just that. It seemed quiet when we stayed but if all the rooms were taken it would be buzzing with activity. Good or bad depending how you like your atmosphere. Our room was big and had a good hot shower. No mosquito net here but we didn't get eaten so assume it was not such a problem in this area. The restaurant had a great view too over the lake with several areas you could sit - inside up or down and outside too during the day. They also lit a fire pit outside in the evening which was nice to sit next to and let your dinner go down. Food and service excellent quality and all freshly prepared (so can take a while) and they seemed to be running out of some of the things on the menu (think we were at the end of the main season) but there was plenty of choice so no problems. All in all a great place to stay.

We stayed at the resort 2 days during our safari to Uganda. The first impression was good, the place is big and has several different buildings and accommodations. It is clearly a “resort” build to accommodate several people, and our visit was probably out of season. The expectations we got coming into the area were however not meet during our stay. The team of staff seemed disorganized, they were friendly, but seemed as if they did not really know what to do and how to do it. The restaurant is big, has a nice view over the lake. The ala carte menu had several options, but a lot was sold out. The food was not good, we got I.e. fish which clearly was not fresh. We had to wait extremely long ( more than 30 min) for our food to be served even though we had ordered several hours before. The food for our table was not served at the same time which to us is awkward. The room was spacious, had a good bath with hot water. We had a balcony with a good view over the lake.
