This resort is absolutely amazing! Views from all sides are simply breathtaking!! Service impeccable, facilities clean and well maintained, food mostly excellent (meats were tough). This is a once in a lifetime resort. Picture yourself swimming in the pool just a few feet from the Nile river rapids,while eagles fly above in the beautiful blue sky, or dining at night... More

The open restaurant also offers a stunning view on the Nile river and the meals are delicious. Don't miss to take a bath on your large wooden deck! This wonderful lodge... More

A very special location to visit in Jinja, Uganda. If you want to experience, feel and hear the heart of the Nile, this is the place to be. A welcoming island situated lodge, decorated with love and care. Very spacious, high ceilinged rooms in which you can relax, read, bathe, sleep and simply enjoy the view. A well selected staff...

As well as being a beautiful location, it was the friendly and attentive staff that make Wildwaters such a special place. The attention to detail was fantastic. The rooms are amazing, and the 5 course meal was delicious! We were there for one night only, but felt like we were away for ages- a complete break from everyday life. More

The canoe ride across the Nile to the lodge on the island in the middle of the river, to be met on the waterside by smiling staff bearing refreshing drinks sets the tone the instant you arrive for a very special stay. The location breathtaking location is made comfortable and hospitably by the beautifully designed and appointed rooms and the... More

Let the wild tumbles of River Nile lull you to sleep and wake you in the morning to the joys of the rising sun with its playful rays reflecting off the water in dizzy rainbow colors.Will definitely be coming back. More

There is a little bit of heaven to be found on Kalagala Island situated in the Nile River, a romantic getaway by the name of “Wildwaters Lodge”. The advertisement says: extraordinary, unique, unforgettable. It is all of the above. The secluded island nestled in the rainforest is accessed by means of a five minute glide through the peaceful water by... More

Wild Waters Lodge is the true definition of 'value for money'. We were warmly welcomed by the security personnel at the gate who directed us to the parking yard. Shortly after we had arrived, a boat came to pick us up. It was prompt (just like it was stated in the directions I received). The boat men were very friendly... More

Having stayed at many excellent lodges throughout Uganda, Wildwaters may well be the best. The setting is spectacular, with wild water on all sides, and one constantly finds oneself staring off into the distance, mesmerised by the power of nature. The service is excellent, the rooms are spacious and extremely well presented. The food, whilst expensive even for lodge standards,... More
