Rafiki Lodge Sipi

We visited Rafiki Lodge as a rest after a charity trip in Teso Sub region. Being out of season the place was very quiet but the staff were friendly and attentive and we had a very pleasant stay. The views from Rafiki are spectacular and it provided everything we were looking for during our two night stay as we enjoyed our rest before heading down to Entebbe for the flight home.

Stunning views, amazing food, quiet and peaceful ambience. The staff went out of their way to do little things like put soup on the menu when they learned our 9 year old loved the soup and make fish and chips three days in a row because kids are picky. All meals were wonderful, but we especially appreciated their understanding and kindness with the kids. Lodging was simple, clean and comfortable, shower was hot and lasted through all four of us. I wish we could open the windows and allow the breeze to flow through on warmer days, but it doesn’t seem to be a common practice at any of the lodges. Family lodge was more space than we needed, and situated in away that made it dim inside, but it didn’t much matter because we were outside most of the time and ready for bed by the time we were settled inside! Afternoon naps on our cottage patio were a daily occurrence! The outdoor sofas are large and comfortable- a perfect reading or napping spot after a strenuous hike. I hope now that Covid is over they can get the revenue needed to finish the second floor over the restaurant and complete some updates. Can’t wait to see the place flourish. We are already planning to go back and will stay at Rafiki again- it’s welcoming atmosphere and amazing views are worth it.

Les chambres sont dans de petits bungalows sur la pente face à l’une des chutes d’eau. La terrasse est idéalement placée et bien protégée. L’accueil est hyper chaleureux et toujours très disponible. L’arrivée d’eau chaude reste un problème mais pas insurmontable
