Great place in beautiful Jinja. There is nothing to complain, as it is a place madeup by an engagging team. Everything is made with love and engagement, that’s the way to instantly feel home. They organize activities on they’re own or with trustfull third-parties.

One of my highlights of my 10 days of travel in Uganda was staying in Jinja at Home on the Nile. The location is incredible looking out over the water. It was very peaceful, and I loved relaxing and reading on the balcony. It's also close to the town centre and lovely cafes (for instance only a 20-minute walk or a very quick boda boda to The Deli). The staff were incredible -- extremely welcoming, kind, and helpful. They made my stay memorable and helped to organize a white-water rafting trip for me. If I'm back in Jinja, I will always try to stay here!

We were a group of 8 people, rented both cottages on the property and had the entire place to ourselves. Cottages are well-equipped, we brought our own food and comfortably stayed for two days fully self-catering. Two barbeque facilities and a fire pit, all overlooking the river Nile. Comfortable beds. Hot water. Birds everywhere. Lovely swimming pool. Foot path leading down to the river. Very helpful and accommodating staff. Will definitely stay again!

This should rather be named, "Gem on the Nile" - a stunning location, with spacious suites overlooking the river, with a really great dining area/bar! The owner, David, could not have been more welcoming, and a high standard of hospitality was also offered by all of the staff, every one gracious and friendly. The food was of an equally high standard: we ordered fish (tilapia) and it was cooked to perfection. Home on the Nile defines Value for Money - it offers a lot, for much less than many of the other accommodations that we stayed at during our Ugandan travels, whilst offering a similar high standard.

The facilities outside and the location are great. There is a direct view of the river Nile, the pool is clean, big, and deep with a shallow end which is suitable for experienced swimmers and kids who may not know how to swim, and the food is good i.e. tasty.

The panaramic views were amazing and the peace and tranquility of the well kept compound was superb. Very child friendly and swimming in the pool was brilliant. Listening and watching the wildlife sat on the veranda was very special. Claire the cook fed us well and provided delicious food if you choose to take up this option. Being able to go tubing on the Nile directly from the villa was an added advantage.
