Great lodge with the most amazing view of the forest! It’s located in a very quiet and peaceful area but it is easy to get there from Buhoma and Ruhija. Nelly and her staff are amazing and you always feel like home. I look forward to coming back.

A wonderful stay! It's a very nice place to stay with everything you need. Simple, no luxury, but that's exactly what makes it perfect for the jungle setting. Since the twin rooms are small, our daughter got her own room free of charge. We received a very warm welcome, and all the staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. Great views, comfortable beds, hot showers, delicious food, and a packed lunch! There were only very brief power outages, and a generator was available for these situations. Our concern that we might not have enough power to charge our devices was unfounded. Dan arranged the permits for the gorilla trekking for us, and everything went perfectly. When we got a flat tire, Dan even organized the repair while we were out trekking. The gate where the gorilla trekking starts is only a 5-minute walk away. The host accompanied us there and picked us up again, making sure everything was working smoothly. We debated for a long time whether we should afford the gorilla trekking despite the high cost, and we're so glad we did. It was an outstanding experience. We traveled as self-drivers, and when we couldn't find the road to Bohoma at the end, our host even sent a driver to show us the way. The road to Bohoma isn't the best, but it's easily manageable even in the rainy season with a Toyota Land Cruiser. In summary, everything was perfect, and we would book there again in a heartbeat. The value for money was excellent. If we had had more time, we would have loved to stay another night.

Staff were awesome...such a welcoming and service oriented group. Particular mentions to Tony who was always ready to help and share a joke and to Lazarus the manager who was so welcoming and informative. The rooms were luxurious...huge bathroom with bath, huge balcony with beautiful views, big and comfortable bed. We had full board option and the food was excellent and plentiful. Attention to detail...drink on arrival, ensure we had everything ready for gorillas trek, turn down beds with hot water bottles, fruit in room, clean shoes after the trek.. etc Location was only 10 minutes away from start of gorilla trek so extra sleep in

Everything is perfect, one of our favorite accomodations so far! Such a beautiful place in nature. Richard and the staff is very attentive, the dinner and breakfast is very delicious. Everything is just amazing.

From the moment I arrived at the airstrip,the lodge had arranged for a driver to pick me up, to arriving at the lodge,the hospitality was exceptional. The staff were incredibly welcoming, attentive, and genuinely kind ,they made me feel right at home. The lodge is beautifully perched in the hills, offering stunning views of the surrounding forest and mountains. Waking up to the peaceful sounds of nature and seeing the morning mist drift through the trees was simply magical. The rooms at Kaara Mountain Lodge are spacious, immaculately clean, and thoughtfully designed. There’s a perfect balance of comfort, luxury, and eco-friendliness. I especially appreciated the little touches, like the cozy hot water bottles in the bed at night and the warm turndown service after a long day. The food was another standout ;fresh, delicious, and made with great care. Each meal, from the early breakfast before trekking to the hearty dinner in the evening, was a treat. The dining area itself is beautifully set, making every meal feel special. Most importantly, the lodge is ideally located for gorilla tracking, making the logistics incredibly easy. After an awe-inspiring day of encountering mountain gorillas, returning to the calm and comfort of Kaara Mountain Lodge was the perfect way to unwind and reflect on such a unique experience.
