Bellevue (Lake Muhazi)

AnnickRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

I had such a wonderful stay here! The lakeside view was absolutely stunning, even more beautiful than the photos show. Being there in person was something else entirely—it’s the kind of peaceful, scenic setting you don’t forget easily. What really made the stay special, though, were the people. The housekeeper and watchman were so kind and welcoming. They offered great tips and were always around when we needed a hand. Their warmth made us feel right at home. I truly enjoyed every part of my time here and I’m already looking forward to coming back. I’ve been recommending this place to everyone I know.

The home is as beautiful as it appears with gorgeous views. Check-in and check-out were easy and hosts were always extremely responsive. As stated in the listing, it is a decent climb up the (uneven) stairs to get to the house, so would be challenging for folks with any mobility issues, but the views are definitely worth it for people who are able, and the house staff met us at the boat to carry bags and offer us walking sticks. The welcome juice was a lovely touch! Kitchen had essentials for cooking, and it was easy enough to get food delivered from My Hill Eco Lodge as well. We also set up both a hike and a boat ride through the folks at the lodge as well, which were both great. Hot water runs on solar so if you're there during cloudy days or rainy season, and you don't have hot water, let the hosts know and they were able to switch it over to electric for us to have hot water. Overall, if you're looking for a lovely, relaxing spot, this is a nice one!

MPOZA -Stone House-private prop.

JenniferRating, 5 stars25 months ago

We love this rustic cottage and having access to the private beach! Plus there are a few great beachside bar / restaurants within walking distance. The property staff are very friendly and helpful; they even started a fire for us on a cold night. Only tip for other guests is to bring cooking supplies (oil, salt, coffee, etc.) and toilet paper as well as bath towels, since these weren’t supplied and shops aren’t close by. 10/10 recommend. Already looking forward to the next chance to visit!
