Buhoma Community Haven Lodge

Absolutely loved staying here the night prior to gorilla trekking.  Very large rooms.   Sheets were a bit threadbare with some holes but no matter because very clean and comfy.  Food was delicious and staff very kind.  Beautiful bird viewing from our room.  Highly recommend.

We stayed at Buhoma Community Haven Lodge for 2 nights. It is peaceful and the views are spectacular, to sit at the end or start of the day and enjoy. The food, particularly the dinners were very good. The service by the team lead by John was excellent and our room was clean and comfortable. I like the fact that it is a community based lodge and all profits go back into the community. It is a great base for the Mountain Gorillas and we would recommend a visit to Ride 4 a Woman organisation and the community to meet the Batwa people. We would definitely stay again.

This was one of my favourite places to stay. The website really does not do this place justice! The views are wonderful, the rooms are absolutely beautiful, the staff are super friendly and helpful and the food was great. They even catered for my vegan diet with no problems. We stayed 2 nights and I wish I could have stayed longer.

A great place to stay in Bwindi. The room was big and clean with a beautiful view. Staff is helpful and friendly and the food was good too. I highly recommend this lodge for gorilla trekking. As a community lodge they give their proceeds back to the community ❤️ 

Great room in the 
Jungle, nicely decorated. Food was good and staff very friendly.
We did the Gorilla tracking early in the morning, saw and got the chance to photograph about 8 of one family with great support from guide and trackers. 
In the afternoon went for village walk to the pygmies and got some information about their former forest live. Enjoyed it immensely.

What a fantastic place to stay! Our room was spacious and clean with plenty of hot water, beautiful view and the special treat of a “ bed warmer” since the nights were a little chilly were all very welcoming. Staff is friendly, courteous and accommodating in every way. We all felt like friends even though it was only 2 nights! Could’ve stayed longer. I highly recommend especially if you’re trekking in Bwindi. Oh, and they also give a portion of their proceeds back to the village for community support. I loved that.

Stayed at Haven Lodge for Gorilla Trekking in the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. The views from our rooms and the lodge were amazing.  All the staff were extremely helpful and very friendly, even presenting a birthday cake for someone in our group. Dan (our guide) went above and beyond to make out stay absolutely superb and never tired of our many, many questions!

We had a marvellous time at this community run lodge.
A fantastic view and a family room with a nice sitting room and 2 very spacious bedrooms which have a bathroom each.
Personnel works very hard to give you an excellent Time with a very big smile.
Food is excellent too.

We had a very nice stay and yes we saw the gorillas and it was the best experience ever.

Most beautiful place we stayed in all of Uganda - astounding views over pristine forest, right from your balcony, and even from the shower! The local community owns and runs the lodge, so profits and wages directly benefit the residents around the park, but the level of comfort. luxury and service are up there with any internationally-owned lodge. Fantastic food, full bar, , hearty breakfast to prepare for a long day of trekking, and packed lunch to keep you going. Loved our stay! Be aware that the road to the lodge is narrow and steep and may not be negotiable without 4-wheel drive. Also, as in most places in Uganda, they take payment in cash, and there are no ATMs in Buhoma.

I truly think it would be impossible to say enough good about this very, very special place.  John, Smith, Audrey and the rest of the staff treated our small group (6 in all) with the utmost care and attention from the very moment we arrived.  There is a wonderful feeling of care, competence and authenticity that seems to permeate.  Very comfortable and welcoming.  
Highly, highly recommend.  Ten stars!!!!!

We enjoyed our stay here, it is a very good mid-budget lodge.  The views of the rain forest are beautiful.  The accommodations are clean and spacious.  The staff is helpful and friendly.  John the manager was very attentive.  The food was decent.  The only issue was my gluten allergy:  the staff kept bringing me wheat despite my repeatedly reminding them I was allergic.  Overall a very good experience.  I would definitely stay here again. 

Great lodge that is affordable

Peaceful and a great base to visit Mountain Gorillas

Amazing Lodge

Lodge and Gorilla tracking!

Buhoma Haven Lodge. Run don’t walk and just book it!

Fantastic accommodations and staff!

Haven lodge

It is a nice lodge very close to Bwindi forest. Food is good, wifi is available only in restaurant area. You have hot water for showering. Power is a little unstable but after a few minutes comes back. Comfortable bed for a good night sleep. Drinks are not included with the meals (only water is). You have to pay extra for anything else you’d like to drink but prices are very accesible. We paid 6 USD for one beer and 2 glasses of wine.

Nice lodge in Bwindi

Beautiful, luxurious community-owned lodge
