Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Uganda

Barbara’s place was beautiful. It was exactly as she described. However I had business to take care of and it was located too far from where I needed to be daily so I had to cancel my reservation. My disappointment was with Airbnb charging me almost $600 in cancellation fees.

We had a lovely family stay at Brittany's beautiful home. It is located a very walkable distance to local backpackers/restaurants and the neighborhood is very peaceful and comfortable. The house itself is lovely -- well-equipped with plenty of space and comfortable amenities. We would absolutely stay there again.

Hakim was a wonderful host incredibly kind, welcoming, and always making sure we were comfortable throughout our stay. He truly made us feel at home. A special thank you as well to Prince, whose constant smile and friendly attitude made everything even better. He was always ready to help. Big thanks to Richard too The place itself was clean, comfortable, and in a great location right in front of Afro Park, which was a lovely bonus. We could go there anytime to relax and have fun. Overall, a fantastic experience

December 2924 I had a warm and beautiful stay at the Exquisite. It is exquisite indeed! Very spacious, and you have a beautiful view of Lake Victoria. Phelyx has outstanding security measures. Not far from the Airport thus made trips to and from the airport easier since I had to go back Mombasa as well. I felt very safe at the Exquisite. Phelyx and his Caretaker Christiano were very attentive and responded swiftly whenever I needed anything. He has a boda boda guy that can do grocery shopping for you as well. That was very convenient 👍🏾 I miss the fresh mangoes already 😃 Thank you Phelyx and look forward to booking with you again. Happy New Year to you and your family 🎉

Our experience was absolutely fantastic, and I cannot thank the Musiimentas enough for being such incredible hosts. They stayed in touch throughout our visit, frequently checking in to ensure we were comfortable and accommodating any needs we had with great flexibility. Their hospitality truly enhanced our stay. The property was beyond perfect for our group. It effortlessly accommodated all seven of us, providing ample rooms and parking space. Additionally, the location was ideal. We found ourselves conveniently close to city attractions while enjoying the safety and tranquility of the area. Overall, we had an amazing time and would highly recommend The Mbuya Residence to anyone looking for a wonderful getaway. Thank you once again for everything!

Everything is perfect, clean and tidy house, well furnished, great hot water, there is security at the gate and a lady who manages the cleaning. I also had very quick laundry service. The lady showed me a trusted driver and restaurants. The only negative note was missing the soap in the house but I was told in advance. There is a mosque nearby that calls for very noisy prayer at night and many dogs barking, but of course the host can't do anything about it and in Uganda they are commonplace.

Absolutely lovely place to stay! Safe, secure and super homely. Thank you for having us :)

My friends and I stayed at Violets. The place was in great condition. We asked for early check in which was accommodate for. Communication was with ease. The house was beautiful. I would love to stay there again

I had the pleasure of staying at this lovely Airbnb from May 18th to May 31st, 2025, and I can honestly say it was one of the most memorable and comforting stays I’ve ever had. From the moment I walked in, the space felt warm, welcoming, and incredibly homey like a place you’ve known forever. The apartment was beautifully maintained and equipped with everything I needed for a relaxing and seamless stay. Derrick and Charlly were absolutely amazing. was kind, responsive, and made sure everything was perfect throughout my stay. Hospitality went above and beyond, and it made all the difference. I also want to extend heartfelt thanks to the caretaker, whose quiet presence and diligent care helped keep everything running smoothly. Together, they created a truly welcoming atmosphere. Thanks Ken B

Anna had a very good home. Even though we didn't meet Anna in person, her co-host, Nelson and the caretakers of the home, Isaac and the colleague were very helpful whenever we needed them. It was indeed a nice stay at the place.

Stuart’s place is lovely, well appointed and in a quiet neighborhood. It was suitable for me as I was on a work trip and could get just about anywhere by uber or Faras. It’s very close to shops and restaurants and you can also have food delivered. Stuart is very responsive. I will be back and I highly recommend his house

The place is private, peaceful and relaxing. Angie is very communicative and always makes you feel at home. The care taker is responsive as well the whole experience is indeed home away from home. Looking forward to coming back soon.

Our stay at Kulambiro was such an incredible experience, the place was fantastic! Vanessa is amazingly responsive and always available to answer all questions. The apartment was impeccably clean and well-stocked with everything you can ever need. This home is like a home away from home , it came with all that you will ever need , We also appreciated Vanessa's local tips and recommendations, which made our trip even better. We highly recommend Vanessa's place to other travelers💗🇺🇬🇦🇺

I really wouldn’t review because I would want to keep it a secret, but the place is great. I believe I also got a discount from the normal rate. I had to switch Airbnb locations in the middle of the night and it went smoothly and quickly.

I've stayed by Iris's place for over a month, and had a wonderful stay. The unit was very clean, equipped with everything you may possibly need, very conveniently located; well established communication with the host. Highly recommended!

Our stay with Janat was amazing! It was a bit tricky to find as the building itself is not labelled however we were able to communicate with Janat and she was very helpful and quick to respond. The apartment was beautiful and clean. Amenities worked such as hot water, wifi, washer, fridge etc. the building is gated with a gateman watching over. 5/5 stars! Thank you Janat for all your fast responses and willingness to help out where needed. I would definitely recommend this place to family and friends.

Overall great stay, would highly recommend anyone visiting Kampala area to stay in this place. In the pictures, there is no dining table so I asked for one. But when I reached the place, I was surprised to find that Geofrey had a table already placed upon my request. Would definitely come back!

It was such a wonderful stay according to feedback from family, the place very spacious in a luxurious style, the location was top notch. The cleanliness was outstanding along with good communication from Jackline. I would recommend anyone to have taste of Jackline’s place because it brings satisfaction and very secure.

Really great experience

This is the second time I’ve stayed here and would highly recommend everyone to.

Ashley is the host you hardly forget about even after leaving her place -a beautiful human-. She ensured we had a pleasant stay at her place, welcoming us in person, ushering us into the apartment and providing recommendations on activities and restaurants to visit. She was proactive and always available to respond to our queries. The apartment looks same as in the pictures. The kitchen is well equipped and this really helped as we prefer to eat home cooked food. Everything was clean and neat. It will definitely be our choice next time we return to Kampala.

Clare's place is just what I needed in my search for a home away from home. It's easy to locate and is in an area near to all you could need in the form of amenities. She is very responsive and communicates promptly. I would definitely recommend her place and I look forward to being hosted again.

A very beautiful apartment, the most cleanest and modern apartment I have been to so far, close to everything and easy to find and mostly a beautiful view from the balcony. It was definitely worthy and I will rebook it when I come back again. Thank you for having me.

Fantastic place to stay in Kampala we loved the location and the pool. Happy went above and beyond our expectations both in her responses and kind touches - it was my birthday and she arranged cake and flowers :-) Thanks Happy see you next time.
