Karibu Entebbe
A peaceful family-friendly retreat in Entebbe, with tropical gardens, Lake Victoria adventures and a warm Ugandan welcome.
Karibu Entebbe
Just 10 minutes from Entebbe International Airport, Karibu Entebbe is a peaceful and welcoming base for families beginning or ending a Uganda safari.
Set on the leafy hillside of a former presidential residence, this intimate boutique hotel is surrounded by mature tropical gardens, abundant birdlife and views towards Lake Victoria.
With just a handful of guests at any time, the atmosphere is relaxed and personal, making it a lovely place to settle into Uganda after a long journey.
The individually designed rooms are spacious and comfortable, while the new Agama Cottage sleeps up to four and has its own lounge, dining area, private garden and rooftop terrace overlooking Lake Victoria, a particularly good option for families travelling together.
There’s also a swimming pool, spa and massage facilities, fast Wi-Fi and complimentary airport transfers.
There is plenty to do beyond simply relaxing. Families can visit the nearby Botanical Gardens, take a sunset boat cruise on Lake Victoria or head to the Mbamba Wetlands to search for the elusive shoebill stork.
The Uganda Wildlife Education Centre and Ngamba Island Chimpanzee Sanctuary offer further wildlife experiences, while Karibu can arrange guided tours of Entebbe.
With delicious Mediterranean-inspired and Ugandan cuisine, beautiful gardens and genuinely friendly service, Karibu is a wonderful choice for a family-friendly Uganda safari stopover.
