Ideal for families and couples, this German owned retreat is earning itself a deserved reputation as one of the most picturesque getaways in Jinja.
The Haven has been designed by an eco-friendly mind, with the use of earthy tones, solar panels and an innovative rainwater harvesting system. The Full Board rate includes a legendary breakfast and all meals are prepared by the jolly, resident German chef.
During your stay, relax in a hammock and listen to the monkeys and birds, or watch an occasional raft drift by before it attempts to cross the grade 5 ‘Overtime' rapid! Alternatively, soak up the African sunshine by the water's edge and then enjoy a cooling dip, or enjoy a sundowner on a sunset cruise.
