Our family cottage,
open to travellers.
A quiet corner of Karongi, reachable only by boat, where a few guests at a time are welcome to share the lake and the rhythm of our days.
Where we live, where you stay
Our cottage is a cozy home that feels comfortable and lived-in, with private access to the lake right from the garden.
We live right next door, around if you need anything, and happy to leave you to your own quiet days otherwise.
Three bedrooms, a fireplace, a garden
Three bedrooms, each with a queen bed and its own bathroom. A fully equipped kitchen, a fireplace, paddle boards waiting by the water.
The atmosphere is unhurried. Birds in the morning, changing light on the water through the day, a fire crackling in the evening.
The lake, the garden, and you
Lake Kivu is safe and inviting for swimming. Step out of the garden and dive in straight from the dock, take the paddle boards out at sunrise, or settle into a lounge chair by the water.
A private boat at your door
Our comfort boat is at your disposal during your stay for trips and excursions on the lake. Guests of the cottage get a generous discount on the regular rates.
- Island hopping across Lake Kivu
- Napoleon Island and its fruit bat colony
- Swims in the middle of the lake
