    The environment was peaceful and relaxing. Very clean home and staff were attentive and caring and always happy to help. My husband and I loved the room and the food. There was no water at some point but that’s out of the hosts control and National water fixed the problem ASAP

    It was not clear that it is a room in a home or that they don’t take credit cards. There is no sign out front that tells you that you have the right place.

    The staff and food are excellent. Host was very nice. Transportation to the airport was quick and efficient. Everything was good after I settled into the fact that I was staying at a home and not a hotel. I did not expect to see a private home on Booking . Com. It does say it is a B&B but it is deep in the description.

    We really enjoyed our stay. Aivilo Home is like an oasis of relaxation and hospitality close to the center of Entebbe and Victoria lake. The room was spacious and comfortable. The beautifully designed veranda and the large garden invites you to linger. The breakfast und the dinner was very delicious. Olivia is an exceptionally friendly and caring host. She running Aivilo Home with great passion. We highly recommend Aivilo Home.

    We asked for the price for the cheapest room directly with the owner, and she gave us a higher price for the room then what was online, which we thought was a bit strange. Also a bit hard to communicate with the owner about the food they offer, and she didn’t answer at sometimes, and left us hanging.

    Nice for one night, close to the AirPort. The staff was very friendly and the room was nice.

    A beautiful oasis that is quiet and peaceful, yet a nice walk to shops and restaurants. 15 minutes from the airport. Beautiful, spacious room with comfortable king bed and ensuite bath. Excellent meals provided at reasonable cost and served on a lovely outdoor patio. Olivia and her team will surely take care of all your needs.!!!

    Olivia and her staff are amazing! From the easy airport pick up to the delicious dinner at the house, we had a perfect stay in Entebbe ahead of our safari adventure. We were even accommodated for an early breakfast ahead of our departure. 100% recommended! Definitely worth staying at this all women run property.

    Nothing in particular.

    I didnt stay at Aivilo myself but my family did. They were extremely happy with their experience there. They were warmly welcomed and taken great care of. The place was clean, spacious and stylish in every detail. It looks like we have got our go-to place whenever we need accommodation around Entebbe.

    The only thing I didn’t like was that we couldn’t stay longer. Wish we had more time to explore the city.

    I loved everything! Nice clean house, beautiful relaxing garden, friendly dogs but most importantly, the nicest and most welcoming people you will meet! I have traveled all over the world and I can’t say I have met a more welcoming, friendly and attentive host than Olivia and her staff. Our time here was way too short but I have never felt such love from a host and staff. I traveled with family for this trip. But I am a frequent solo female traveler. This is the place if you are a solo female traveler! So much female empowerment and the feeling of safeness at this home!

    Our room had 2 beds and only 1 mosquito net!!! I got bitten up all night even with bug spray. Also so inconvenient that they only accept cash payment. The room was also quite hot with only 1 weak fan.

    The garden is very pretty, it's pretty close to the beach (30 mins walking) and very close to the airport (10 mins driving). They arranged an airport transfer that came on time and there is a WONDERFUL restaurant around the corner called Muti.
