Stay for a week, a month, or a little longer.
Whatever you're working on — a book, a business, a painting, or just yourself — you can get on with it somewhere wild.
Jinja Jungle is a proper place to live for a while — your own little corner of six acres of jungle on the Nile, with somewhere to cook, somewhere to swim, somewhere to work or write if you need it, and plenty of space to disappear.
It feels a long way from everything.
It isn't.
Jinja is a city, and it's close enough when you need people, supplies or a decent coffee. And when you don't, you can stay right here: barefoot, in the garden, by the river, around the fire, doing your own thing.
Get on with things. Swim when you're done. Stay for a while.
There are two ways to do this:
Kintu or Nambi, our regular container rooms — available any time, for any length of stay.
Canvas instead of steel. Same six acres, same river, same fire at night.
Rates depend on which stay and how long — message us and we'll work it out together.
You live here.
Some days you'll be absorbed in what you're doing and barely leave your room. Some days you'll finish at 3pm and go straight into the Nile. You might cook dinner with whoever's around, disappear into a hammock with a book, join a sunset fire, or do absolutely nothing.
There's a shared kitchen, gardens, river access, places to work and write, places to sit, and people around if you want them.
And if you need a little civilisation, Jinja is right there.
Stay put for a few weeks — and use the weekends to explore Uganda.
We can help you arrange trips and adventures around your life here, rather than having to squeeze everything into one holiday.
Waterfalls, coffee country, mountains and a completely different landscape.
Get properly away from it all without having to fly anywhere.
Take a long weekend, go wild, and come back to your jungle home.
Or stay closer to home: paddle the Nile, take a boat, go rafting, ride bikes, explore Jinja, climb Kali Hill for sunset, or simply spend the afternoon swimming.
Need wheels? We can help arrange bike, motorbike, electric bike or car hire.
Staying put doesn't have to stop your life from being interesting.
Stay in one of our containers or glamping spaces, with shared living and kitchen areas and the jungle all around you. Laundry is included.
Cook for yourself, raid the herb garden, buy groceries in the city — or let us help with the basics.
Swim, paddle, sit beside it, or spend an afternoon doing nothing particularly useful.
Jinja Jungle has an elastic family. There are people around, but nobody expects you to be social.
Birds, trees, fireflies, dogs, cats, monkeys, gardens and the occasional monitor lizard. Nothing about it is sterile.
Restaurants, shops, cafés, city errands, adventures and everything else are close enough to dip into when required.
There is something about having nowhere you need to be.
No commute. No office. No traffic. No obligation to make the most of your holiday.
Just write, work, cook, swim, walk, think, sleep.
Then do it again tomorrow.
And when you're done for the day, you're already somewhere worth being.
Tell us what you're looking for — a couple of weeks, a month, or longer — and we'll work out what makes sense.
