Secrets Guest House

This was perhaps the best place, the lovely little chalet I stayed in, with mosquito net on a hanging frame around the bed, lovely bathroom, lovely central garden, excellent service from the friendly and helpful staff, VERY large bath towel as well as a hand towel, lovely rooftop dining area; they arranged excellent tours, one to see the shoebill storks in the swamp, another to chimps on the island refuge,

The door to room #2 dragged on the floor (trivial) and there was a mix-up about when and where to meet the boat for the chimp tour, but now they know where and when.

Sehr nette Gastgeber, Bett gut, schõner Innenhof, gutes Frühstück. Ideal um in Uganda anzukommen

Nice garden. Good breakfast. Close to Nakiwogo ferry. Safe place. Good mosquito net. Nice food.

Drinks too expensive. Room lights very dim.

Secret House in Entebbe truly lives up to its name : a hidden little paradise just a few steps from Lake Victoria and surrounded by small local shops and food stands that make the experience authentic and easy-going. The place feels both peaceful and romantic. The room and bathroom are huge, beautifully decorated, with a high ceiling, elegant wooden floors, and simple yet tasteful details everywhere. There’s even a small sitting area right outside, in a lovely and well-kept garden... perfect for relaxing. The atmosphere is calm and intimate, ideal for couples or anyone who enjoys the lake vibe. The receptionist was polite and helpful, calm in pace, yet attentive and made sure my early morning taxi to the airport was perfectly arranged. My partner left a bit later. The night manager was especially kind, even offering extra sauce for the fresh fish we bought by the lake and enjoyed at the guesthouse : such a thoughtful and memorable gesture.

The price list on the menu and the one on the board could be a bit clearer, and a few food options were unavailable during our stay. A breakfast bag was kindly prepared for my early flight, which was appreciated, though it felt a little basic given that breakfast was included in the room rate. Adding a swimming pool would truly make this place heaven on earth but even without it, Secret House is perfectly named: a hidden, lovely spot by the lake, ideal for a romantic getaway or a peaceful last stop before flying out of Entebbe.
