For my trip to Uganda, I was craving peaceful, nature-filled escapes away from the usual hustle and bustle of city life 🌿✨

My first stop was Entebbe - because that's where the international airport is. I’ll admit, I had originally overlooked it for Kampala, but I quickly discovered that unlike Kampala, Entebbe sits right on the shores of Lake Victoria. 

That’s when I started looking for lakeside stays and stumbled upon Entebbe Forest Lodge.

Tucked between lush greenery and the water’s edge, it turned out to be the perfect hideaway near Lake Victoria. Calm, cosy, and beautifully serene. 💚

Luxury travel doesn’t have to break the bank 💸✨

Here are 3 ways I enjoy 5-star experiences on a budget:

1️⃣ Can’t afford the $600/night price tag? Some hotels offer day passes - you’ll still enjoy the pool, spa, restaurant, and atmosphere for a fraction of the cost.

2️⃣ Contact the hotel directly - they often have lower rates or seasonal discounts you won’t find online.

3️⃣ Travel during shoulder season - fewer crowds, better weather, and way cheaper luxury stays.

Because you also deserve the soft life! 😉💅🏽

I took a spontaneous trip to Uganda - only one hour away from Nairobi and was rewarded with the most relaxing time ever! 🍂🍃

6 days was a sweet introduction to the country - I spent my time in Entebbe, Kampala and Jinja - including a stay on a private island in the middle of the Nile!

Definitely looking forward to visiting again!

When I find myself on the balcony of a tall building or in this case, on a private island in the middle of the Nile... it's a constant battle - but so far, I'm winning! 🎉
