Hotels near Paraa Ferry (South Shore), Paraa

This was a great camp with a good atmosphere and wonderful rooms. We stayed in a family room which had 4 beds, shower and bathroom. The beds were very comfortable with superbly clean linen, the room was huge, and there were really high quality mosquito nets around every bed. The room had a terrace area on the front with rattan furniture, and the choice to have limited power to the rooms after a certain hour meant that we could really enjoy the sky full of stars - a rare treat for those of us from light-polluted Europe. The camp was open to passing wildlife and the kids really enjoyed having warthogs and baboons passing through. On top of all of this the camp offered giant portions of food at mealtimes and provided packed breakfast if you wanted to go out early. We really enjoyed everything about our stay, and it was really excellent value for money.

The location was absolutly amazing. Right on top of the waterfalls. It took 1h on a beautiful boat ride to arrive. That was part of the magical. We saw Elephants, Hippos, Crocodiles, Birds and an unforgettable sunset. I belive that no other camps or resorts are located inside the park. The team was excellent and the food was very, very good. We had dinner right bellow a sky full of stars. The next day we went with the team to visit the falls (on the opposite side where the tourists usually see them).

Quiet, tranquil, clean nice little place. It surprised me already the moment we got off our car, because not only did they show up with towels - which is a little extra gesture to show their welcome - but also the towel is cold! It was such a caring addition to everything else when we were sweating insanely under the heat! Regarding the rooms, this is pretty much the only lodge I have seen (among national park-types of lodge) that has a design. I stayed in the deluxe bamboo room and the design makes it much cooler and more airy than many other lodges I've stayed in. It's spacious and clean and tidy. I decided not to stay in the cottages after reading reviews about how the cottages face the west so it's too hot in the afternoon. There's hot water in the bathroom so that's a big plus, although you might not need it much. Because they're on a solar system, just like many safari lodges, so we can't use our regular hairdryer but they have their own hairdryer they can lend to guests. The swimming pool was very clean and nice too! I took an afternoon dip every day during my stay and it's perfect under that hot weather. The room has a phone so we can call the reception for any service needed. This is quite different from many lodges where you walk 5 minutes to your cottage and then have to walk 5 mins back if anything is missing. The service was also incredibly fast! One time we ordered some drinks and it arrived within 3 minutes! We only had one meal (dinner) at the lodge and it was great too! I wouldn't say I'd go specifically for the meal but it's definitely above average considering meals at safari lodges. Overall this is a really great place to stay. It doesn't feel overly luxurious and fancy but the cleanliness and service made me 100% enjoy my stay. Let's say they focus on what is truly important, instead of building a fancy place and charging high prices for no reason. I highly recommend it!

Absolutely loved the outlook over the Nile River, the peace and tranquillity, and the wildlife roaming through the grounds! Swimming pool and pool bar were very refreshing and much appreciated.

Such a lovely and welcoming Staff. Food was very good. Excellent Hospitality by entire team.
