Besides the many green plants, We have locally done art pieces that enhance the lush tropical feel of the true Pearl of Africa.

The kitchen is fully equipped with all cooking equipment, a tea boiler, and a water dispensing machine.

About the host

Hosted by Petra Najjuka

Host profile image
Petra holds an internationally recognized project management profession credential. From my exposure during her work - professional related travels, I observed the challenges travelers like I faced myself. Every time I needed space to do what I enjoyed like cooking my own fresh meals or veggies straight from the market, making herself a coffee, everything thing was costed highly because the Accommodation facilities could not allow me do that. Could not even carry in a beer, soda, water, etc. unless paid a percentage for them. It is against that backdrop that she thought of setting up a comfortable home for people who always faced such challenges like herself to come and enjoy

Why they chose this property
