My wife and I stayed here for the last night of our African Vacation. It was an excellent place to end and excellent trip. The food… read more was incredible and the staff were amazing. The rooms/beds are comfortable, the shower was hot with good pressure. We really loved the dinner we had and the breakfast the next morning was exceptional. We also had a private driver to takes us to the airport who was kind and helpful to walk us all the way inside the airport showing us where to go.
Would obsoletely stay here again

Perfect Stay! – We had an amazing stay at Karibu Guest House. The staff was amazing, the pool is relaxing, and the room was perfect for our short stay. Also plenty of different… read more colorful birds which were beautiful, and the food was delicious.

Best Food in Africa – We stayed here at the beginning and end of our Uganda exploration. It is a cozy, quiet oasis tucked away from the craziness of Kampala and Entebbe with the best… read more food we had in our six weeks in Africa. The ladies staffing the hotel are on it: efficient, friendly, and constantly smiling. The rooms are spacious and comfortable with limitless hot water for showers. If you’re looking for a place that feels almost like home, this is it.

Ticks all the boxes – Really the cleanest place we stayed in Uganda (we were here for three weeks). It really is a place that has attention to detail at every step of the… read more way and although classed as a guest house, it’s more like a boutique hotel in many respects.
The rooms are spacious with either a garden or lake outlook and very quiet. There is everything you need except perhaps hair conditioner for the ladies but that’s not unusual in Uganda.
The setting is lovely and there is a small pool in the lush gardens.
Staff here are very accomodating and looked after us three ladies very well. Meals are also good standard and fresh.
You can easily use this place as your jumping off place to explore Entebbe and don’t miss the Mbamba swamp and the shoe bill bird.
Definitely a good place to stay

Arriving and departing from Kampala/Entebbe  – We started and ended our Uganda safari amd gorilla trekking at Karibu Entebbe. It is 10 minutes from the airport, located on a hillside overlooking Lake Victoria. … read more British East Africa was governed from Entebbe, and Karibu Entebbe is on the edge of the governor’s grounds, now occupied by the President of Uganda.
The rooms are spacious, with nice bathrooms, and great grounds, including a beautiful little plunge pool. We were resting after 30 hours of travel, and Karibu entebbe was perfect. We got a massage, ate a few excellent meals, and walked into town. I highly recommend walking to the Botanical Gardens, which are on the shore of Lake Victoria. They are beautiful, filled with locals, and several species of monkeys!
On the way home, we had an 11:30 PM flight out to Brussels, so we got a day room here as well.

I highly recommend this place to start and end your trip.

Dinners are absolutely amazing here. Whenever I have friends staying here, it is such a treat to be invited for a meal. It is like having fine dining in a… read more cozy atmosphere, attended to by warm and welcoming staff. The rooms are also very homey and comfy. The ambiance is like a cocoon – restful, rejuvenating and when you are ready to emerge, you are reborn and refreshed.

A little gem aptly named ‘welcome’ – I stayed here with a friend and then went back a week later with my mother as we had such a good experience!!!

Karibu is a small boutique hotel… read more in a residential part of entebbe. It has beautiful mature gardens, a very picturesque small swimming pool and rooms offered either within the main house or in a small adjoining building with a glorious veranda area perfect for sitting and reading. There is 24 hour security and it feels very safe.

We were in the separate building which has lovely king size beds, mosquito nets and a ‘natural stone’ decor in the bathroom. Everything was super clean and beautifully presented.

You can order meals and have breakfast here. We only had breakfast as we arrived quite late in the evening having already eaten and they give us a large choice of beautifully cooked and presented hot and cold items.

They can arrange airport transfers for you and Patrick and Chris are very professional – always early and very helpful and informative.

Whilst Karibu is a gorgeous intimate setting, the real jewel in the crownu is the team. Between my two trips, I met Stella, Maggie, Rose, Dora and Florence (I hope I have not missed anybody out!). These ladies were universally amazing – kind, helpful, informative and unobtrusive. (They were also very strong as they helped me carry my extremely heavy bags when I was leaving!😂)

More than anything else it was the unfailing smiles, enthusiasm and decency of the Karibu ‘dream team’ that made this into a five star experience and makes me proud to be Ugandan. Keep up the good work!

Wonderful Oasis – We arrived to this gorgeous oasis after 22 hours of travel. We were lead to our room which was perfect and comfortable. The porch was a perfect place to… read more sit and watch and listen to all the amazing birds. The pool area was very relaxing and a wonderful place to have a sundowner. The food was delicious. Breakfast was a real treat too, those crepes and honey were something I will crave for a long while. The staff were just wonderful- attentive and so friendly. Thank you for a great stay!

Karibu Entebbe – This was a perfect place to relax after a two week adventure in Tanzania and before starting a week in Uganda. The room was clean and comfortable. The pool was… read more a bit cold but a perfect place to relax with our G&Ts and Nile Specials. The food was wonderful and the staff was attentive to our every need. I would highly recommend Karibu Guest House to anyone staying in Entebbe.
