Thank you for visiting me (Miiro David) the host.... I am really passionate about hosting and i don't do it as a job, but as my hobby mainly because i learn a lot from the visitors i host. And i witness this through my personal growth that has highly been contributed to by my lovely guests. You know every guest is unique in his or her own way and widely exposed. So i always take that opportunity to learn from you if you give me a chance that i am sure you will offer, not so? See you soon

Property information

Welcome to Plastic Bottles House. Please NOTE: Plastic Bottles House is a HOMESTAY not a regular Hotel or a mere Guest House. We operate differently. At PBH you are a community member not just a guest. We normally live as a community at our home. Therefore, you will never be restricted to just a bed and food. Sometimes we have communal meals where we come together and share as one family. We also have different games Monopoly, Ludo, Volleyball, Football, Badminton, cards, checkers, juggling and others for our leisure as a community, We do our own cooking (But you can order for your food in case you need to). A kitchen is available mainly for long staying guests to use to cook their desired delicacies. Only that we normally contribute three dollars each day for the kitchen use mainly to cater for our Gas and Power since those two items are expensive in Uganda. Sometimes, we have community gatherings in the evening around fire and dance to music a bit around camp fire. We are near the shores, so be ready to move out and enjoy the sun raising and setting in the evening. Just know that we only focus on you being happy and comfortable. I organise tours to see animals in Uganda only for our guests at affordable budgets.. I organise community birding tours at twenty five dollars per person. The birds you are likely to see are, Pied kingfisher, woodland kingFisher, red chested sunbird, red Cheeked cordon bleu, blue breasted cordon bleu, white throated bee eater, African pied hornbill, little Egret, brown sun bird, red bullied fire finch, black and white Manikins, black headed weaver , African pied wagtail, mouse birds, pied crows, Hadada Ibis, Red headed love birds,black headed Gonoleks, many more....
