Beautiful spot ! We stayed in a tent with a river view and it was so amazing ! You have your own private tent with a little balcony area to chill ! So many monkeys playing around in the trees ! Lots of activities to do , rafting, kayaking, tubing, boat cruise, paddle boarding ! Sunset view is really nice ! They have a giant slide to use and a swimming area in the Nile! Staff was always very nice ! Washrooms were always clean ! Good free breakfast and great French press coffee ( probably the best coffee I had in Uganda ) ! I only ate at the restaurant for breakfast which was good . Right outside the gates there is a local street with a few vendors selling traditional food so we ate there a lot as we enjoy traditional food and was cheap - 3 Rolex vendors , chicken and chips vendor , coffee spot , lunch spots that serve matoke , beans, eats and 4-8pm little stand with posho , rice , beans , cabbage , really good !!!! Easy to get two from Jinja you can just take a Boda Boda and it is around a 25 minute ride- anywhere from 10,000 -20,000 shillings depending where you going/ coming from !

Living Waters Resort is a hotel offering accommodation in Jinja. This hotel features free WiFi, a terrace and a garden. The property is 200 metres from Speke Memorial and a 3-minute walk from Source of the Nile Viewpoint.

We totally enjoyed our stay at Living Waters. Perfect location to stay a night or more in their modern tents, while exploring Jinja. Best thing was waking up to the view of the Nile and enjoying the tranquility while immersing in nature. Chef was super helpful and made us very delicious food. Polite staff… too many positive things to say. Don’t think twice, just book and thank me later :)

    This almost lakefront property has a stunning view over the water. Nice spacious room and balcony with a good hot shower and probably the best internet I've had in the area. Comfy beds and company of a very sweet cat.

    Walking distance to Main Street but down the hill enough so that it's quiet. The staff clearly communicated everything, the breakfast was delicious and served in the morning after alerting the front desk, the bed was very comfy and I enjoyed the fan for some white noise and humidity relief.

    Quiet and Serene. I went with children and they had a blast in the small splash pool. The hammocks and campfire too were a big plus

    The view is incredible. The layout follows a rustic/rural look, a little different than expected but was really quite beautiful. The morning view was phenomenal and the bed was super comfy. There are monkeys around the property which you have a pleasure to see and take photos of.

    The owner, Deven, is a very amiable and good natured person. The staff are jolly and courteous. The massuesse, Flavia, is honestly the best I have ever encountered. I highly recommend her. The place is clean and serene. An excellent camping experience!

    The view and peace of this place is incomparable! It is breath-taking. And the accommodation made it so that you were close to nature. There is a glamping tent that is super cool.
