Pros:

Great and Quiet Ambiance. Perfect for people looking to get away from the City noise. A simple but good breakfast was served as well. A beautiful view of the Nile. It's located off the highway so be ready to do a little drive to get there. It's worth it when you get there.

Fantastic option for families!
Pros:

Stevalyn's Ridge View Lodge was an amazing place to stay near Jinja!

The rooms are spacious, clean, and comfortable. The hosts are warm and welcoming. The food is delicious and the view of Lake Victoria is gorgeous.

We made last minute arrangements due to a car failure, and I'm so happy we found this lodge. What luck! We were a group of 13 people, 6 adults plus 7 children. I personally stayed in one of their larger rooms, with two queen beds fitting four of us and plenty of space for our travel crib. Great for families. In the morning, the chef was happy to accommodate all our kids and their energetic food requests.

We felt refreshed and well cared for after a grueling day. I cannot recommend highly enough.

Pros:

Der Gastgeber war sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Wir haben ein Upgrade Zimmer erhalten. Er hat uns einmal ganz unkompliziert und sehr günstig in die Stadt gefahren. Auch sonst hat er für uns einen Bootsguide, einen Bodabodafahrer und einen Taxifahrer organisiert. Mit dem Essen wurden wir richtig verwöhnt. Wir fühlten uns sehr wohl.
Wir kommen gerne wieder einmal.

A complete surprise and the photos online do not do it justice. Strongly recommended.
Pros:

Although it’s off the beaten path a bit, it’s well worth the effort to find this gem. The property is simply beautiful and the rooms are spacious. The staff is superb, the owners live on site, and they accommodated our every wish…including serving two special dinners for us and our friends from Jinja. It was like having a private chef.

Cons:

The access is challenging due to construction nearby, but once that is finished the roadway will be improved. Until then, it’s worth the minor inconvenience.

Pros:

I like the staff attitudes and facilities which gave us a sense of being at home. They were so caring. The location is so quiet.

Cons:

They need to diversify the food option, especially the break fast.
