Latest Check-Ins
10$ camping, 60$ for rooms. they would only go down to 40$ for a single room, 50$ double..
We didn't stay.
Fantastic place located right on the lake. Stunning views. Friendly staff, clean rooms we negotiated to 30k per night double room no breakfast but you can use their kitchen. Secure parking for motorcycles. Definitely recommended. For boat tours out to the Islands ask the staff to call Jacque. Definitely worth doing. 40k per boat 3 hours.
Report Check-InOk for a 1 night stop. In a RRT you park in the driveway which is fine. Can have access to power with an extension cable. Hot showers (remember to put the geyser on a little before the time). Great views of the lake and a little bit of beach to enjoy it from. Very nice and quiet. Wanted to charge $20pppn. That’s a little pricey for what you get.
Report Check-InVery limited space on grass- beachfront to setup tent. Also there are extraneous (employees) wondering around the facility.
Report Check-InBetter to avoid weekends, we had a party in front of us from 2am till well into the day. We made it there with our big camper 6.8m long) and one night, we had 2 RTT next to us, but that was the limit. 4x4 good to get back up again. The gate is grey, not blue.
Report Check-InBeautiful campsite right in front of a small private beach. Possibility to do a boat tour (50 dollars/boat) or rent their canoe (10 dollar/hour, 15 if more than 1 hour). they asked 15 dollar pppn but we negotiated 10 dollars if we stayed two nights. Hot shower. There is no signpost only a blue gate.
Remember there is bilharzia in lake Kivu (in contrast to what some websites tell).
Report Check-InAll descriptions are mostly current. A room for showers and toilet, with hot water. Stunning views. We just drove up so they weren't prepared with food, but could arrange with time. Had beer on hand. Some locals hung around drinking and upon leaving our bill was much higher. Unless we paid 20USD for an onion. The person was the manager and not owner. The boats were filled with water and likely not used for a while. And the front gate was not secure and open all night. The fire pit was fabulous.
Report Check-InBeautiful place for camping, the views and calmness makes it the best place to camp in near Lake Kivu.
Report Check-InGreat place to camp, right at the lake. Frendly staff. Toilet and shower available. They also have rooms available. I paid 15$ for one night camping
Report Check-InFantastic place to camp on the beach or stay in a bungalow. The view is beautiful and the beach is nice for swimming and hanging out. You can take a boat trip out to the islands from here as well, which they can help you arrange. Camping is 10,000pp, and the food is delicious. They have a bbq and can make brochettes or chicken or fish if they have it. The fire pit is great during the night and they have secure parking for our motorbikes. https://youtube.com/c/2kickaround
Report Check-InA must must stay! Such a lovely campsite right on a private little beach. Stunning views and such friendly staff. 10 000 RWF per person per night. Bathroom with hot showers. They also make a bonfire for you every night. Can take a walk into the town, as it’s super close
Report Check-InAmazing place right at the lake. The owner is more than welcoming and super helpful! He makes sure that his guests feel well and he loves to share his time with you. We had a wonderful time here and we can truly recommend
Report Check-InTruly beautiful spot, just opened. Good camping and room options, and sweet private beach with view of lake. 10 dollars pppn for camping.
Report Check-InNice hidden gem in Kibuye. A small lodge/campsite with place for two cars. You have access to a private beach with beautiful sunset over Kivu. Good spot to organize trips in the area or just relax for a couple of days. Walking distance into town where you can buy veggies etc. ended up staying 5 nights, a lot longer than expected
Report Check-InIliza beach is a real gem, very nice located and the views are amazing, the staff is very friendly and we had a great time. We are looking forward to comeback in November.
