The staff at this property were extremely nice and friendly. The journey from Kigali however was stressful. I recommend renting a jeep or a car with high tires as the roads leading to the accommodation are bad.

The view from the balcony of each cabin is to die for!!! The staff extremely friendly! Food in the restaurelant limited but tasty and very reasonably priced. Now the bad news. Inside the cabins everything is so tired to say the least.The electric sockets practically hanging out. The shower so small you can hardly turn round ( and i am a slim guy). It looks to me like the owner is giving up on it... Such a shame as i really wanted to give high rating...

The location and the property of Rwiza Village are just beautiful! You have the best view overlooking the lake and the sunset from your room. The little huts are simple but comfortable with a little balcony. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Breakfast and food were decent (we recommend the Talpia that is not on the menue). From Kibuye we walked (1h) or took motos (10 mins) to get to the accommodation. Fair price for what you get. The facilities will need some renovation in the future. No WiFi in the rooms.

I have already stayed at Rwiza Village twice. Once three years ago and once two years ago. Unfortunately, the condition of the cabins has deteriorated a lot and urgently needs renovation or improvement. The furnishings are also outdated. A chair broke straight away, the mosquito net had lots of holes and the toilet flush didn't work. It has great potential, but please refurbish once soon.

Very nice lost place. But you have to write explecid that you have a safe route to the hotel with the car and maybe you put it on your hotel description because the GPS shows very bad roads if you don'r know it. Bute without this it's really a beautiful place.

Beautiful views from the bungalows which are small and basic but with a marvelous view from the balcony. Direct access to the lake. The food at the restaurant is delicious and nice restaurant staff. But...the access is a 500 meter dirt road...
