Kevin and Leslie
Karibu is a former presidential home lovingly converted into a boutique guest house. We have only 7 rooms and that's the way we like it. Small enough to maintain our intimate atmosphere, high levels of service and delicious food presentation that we have built our reputation on.
Originally from New Zealand and Corsica, we've been in Uganda for eight years. After living and working in beautiful national parks, we decided to move to peaceful Entebbe and begin Karibu in 2012.
We are in a residential neighbourhood away from the shops and bars. The hillside location means a cooler climate and lovely views of the sunset over Lake Victoria. Our tropical garden has over 35 species of bird-life that we have identified.
