No fan, inside furniture is aged

The environment, swimming pool, nature, breakfast

Stayed in August 2025

- There is no air conditioning despite the high temperatures. - There was a power outage on the Island for nearly a whole day and apparently it can happen from time to time. Of course that's not the hotel's fault, but it should be kept in mind when coming here. - Showering water is only luke warm and even that is only there for a few minutes before it gets ice cold. - There is barely any light protection for the windows, so it's very bright in the morning. They even put a mirror on the side of the bed facing away from the windows, so light is always shining in your face. - No sound proving whatsover, so you hear a lot from your neighbors and especially the myriads of birds outside, that start their day quite early. - For some reason all the hotels in the region have very poorly constructed mosquito protection at the windows, this one included (mosquito net as seperate slidable door with significanr gaps instead of putting the net solidly on one window). This means some mosquitos always get in the room. - The beds are very short, even for hotel standards. - The ferry to Entebbe leaves only once a day early in the morning, so I couldn't leave for a whole day after realizing the detrimental circumstances listed above. Again that's not the hotel's fault, but it can make the stay inconvenient.

- Nice looking location and buildings. - They offer several acitivities. - Very Friendly staff and guides. - Unlike some other reviewers, I liked the massage, especially for the price (6 Euros for upper body / 12 Euros for full body).

Reception is not accepting USD in cash, many positions in bar menu in fact were absent.

Good view, large rooms, big portions in the restaurant.

Our final weekend was ruined by a very noisy group of Indians, leaving litter everywhere and even having a portable loudspeaker.

Wonderful staff and a brilliant location. Ideally placed for morning walks or birdwatching.

They should look into putting kettles in the room for those clients that wake up really early and would like to have hot drinks

The ambiance was lovely and the staff really friendly

Everything was great

The serene environment, quite and peaceful and I had all the beach to myself being a weekday. I always look forward to my stays at Victoria Forest Resort. I can't wait for my next solo trip which will be very soon.😍

Food was ok and the rooms

The water was good and the compound was clean

Stayed in October 2024

The food took far too long to come out and the wait staff were very disorganised. A cold beer took 30 mins to reach us, despite the fridge being stocked when we ordered. The food took almost two hours. On the first night we wanted to sit and chat at the bar but some people were blasting music by the pool. When we asked if it could be turned down we were told they'd paid for a party so there was nothing thay could be done. When leaving, we had been charged for food we hadn't eaten and not charged for some things we had ordered. It took another 30 mins and the fourth printed bill to settle the account. All in all, it's a beautiful and affordable place that's thoroughly let down by the staff.

The location and the aesthetic of the accommodation was beautiful as always

There are a lot of bugs because is close to the lake. I guess this depends on the season we are in. Anyway, if you are careful around night time with long trousers and sleeves you won't have any problem!

Impresive place and views. And good resort to rest after a long trip. The service is really attentive. And we had a forest walk for free with a very nice guy. At night the fireplace at the beach is a nice spot to be talking around.

Mosquitoes were all over

The nice views And the clean waters

It is a beautiful property with a great view of the sunset. The compound is large enough for everyone

Stayed in June 2024

Nothing to mention

The topography and very hospitable staff especially one called Joseph that took us through the nature walk

Stayed in June 2024

It is just right at the bitch with white sand

The food on the menu was OK, but the chicken was very, very BAD. The waiting time on the food service could be a bit quicker as we waited about 1 hour and 20 minutes to get served our food.

We liked the peace and quiet We liked how safe it was We liked the activities there were to do. (Nature walk, quad bike, jet ski, etc..)

The rates a are little too high

The food

A million things

breakfast was good. Staff awfully slow and forgetful

The hotel is old and not well maintained. The manager has been rude to us on multiple occasions and tried to squeeze money in different ways. He was supposed to bring us to the ferry and we almost lost the only available boat of the day. The staff would repeatedly charge double in your bill. If you are not careful you will end up paying way more than you consumed. The rooms assigned to us were not the reserved ones. The swimming pool is not the one in the picture, they might have used a bit of AI to make the place look better in the picture.

The location is wonderful.
