Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Lake Tanganyika

We stayed at Said and Kudu’s place for three nights to visit Katumbi and the Mahale National Park. We truly loved our stay there. The accomodation is located in the lovely Katumbi village where everybody was very friendly and nice with us. Kudu is a great host, extremely caring and always available to organize and do activities together. We had lovely dinners together that we will always remember. Katumbi is a little gem in a beautiful region and Mahale park is only 2 hs away by boat. The guesthouse contribute to funding an important agroforestry project in the region and this is an added reason to visit and stay at Said’s place. You will not find a fancy lodge but a truly immersive and authentic experience close to the people of Katumbi. Highly recommended!

Very welcoming host, communicative, friendly Nice and clean house, in quiet area. They've done their best to always support and assist us which was awesome 👍. You can also rent a car and hire a driver who is with you all the time and can take you anywhere. I really recommend this place!

Our daughter stayed there with friends. Her feedback: “been really amazing, the host has great communication and the guards are so kind to help us when we needed it too! Everything is really clean and spacious and it’s been relaxing but also perfect space for family!”

The listing exactly matches the photos. There's nothing about this listing that's great. The availability of water and electricity is better than in other neighborhoods. I would recommend this property ++++

Thank you for sharing your home with us - it was one of the most wonderful Airbnb experiences I've ever had! Your home was beautiful, spacious and clean, and you were so kind with helping us navigate our time in Burundi. Great to meet you in person too, and looking forward to coming back again :) Merci beaucoup, asante sana!

Let me start by publicly thanking Bella our Hostess, she is by far one of the best. The way Bella portrayed the home is the exact same way we found. It’s in a really nice peaceful neighbourhood and isn’t too far from the markets, church’s and everything you could think of. We had a man there who was able to assist us in everything and anything that we needed. I would definitely recommend this home to everyone who plans to stay in bujumbura as the home is absolutely wonderful, we felt at home, we could literally call this place home. My family have definitely found where we would always like to stay every time we come to Bujumbura. I hope this review helps you guys and motivates you all to stay at Bella’s place.

My stay was perfect, the place is neatly and extremely worth exceeding my expectations. I will for sure recommend anyone visiting to choose the Kidyama house. Grace went extra miles on services offered on accommodation and gastronomy (Foods). I will absolutely be back at this location soon.

Peaceful. Good location.
