Monthly Rentals in Virunga Mountains

Christian was excellent in his communication and responded to my requests very quickly! Jackline, his manager, was so lovely, kind, helpful, fun! She made sure I was well taken care of, came to say hello daily, was a real bonus to my stay! The place is beautiful, well built, thoughtfully decorated, very clean and far away from the noisey center. And the air was much fresher, not stinky from car fumes! There are lovely gardens and beautiful little birds. And the raised Pavillion was amazing, allowing one to view the surrounding countryside and volcanoes in the distance. Highly recommend this lovely place!

Pros: Very beautiful location with volcano views. Host was responsive and the rooms were comfortable. Cons: - difficult to locate and hard access after rains - no mosquito nets - a little awkward to stay in a nice cottage at the top of the hill with running water and electricity when the surrounding village is without

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!

Love the peace of the place!
