MAMA WASHINDI LODGE
Your Bed & Breakfast in Uganda
Our Facilities
Welcome to Mama Washindi Lodge
One of those places you almost want to keep to yourself. Set high above the Nile River in a calm, peaceful atmosphere, it’s the perfect starting point for game drives to the nearby Murchison Falls National Park – the biggest national park in Uganda, famous for its wildlife and the incredible waterfalls.
Safari-ready: The wild starts just around the corner.
Mama Washindi is the perfect base for game drives into Murchison Falls National Park – the biggest national park in Uganda. Famous for its wildlife, and for waterfalls you won’t forget once you’ve seen them. And the wild is close: on the lodge grounds and on a nearby bush walk, you can spot a great variety of birds, antelopes – and sometimes even elephants.
Bandas with soul: Natural materials, real warmth.
Our Bandas are simple in the best way: honest, warm, and built with real care using natural materials from the surrounding area like timber and grass. Each one is self-contained, with its own bathroom and a private balcony – made for slow mornings, relaxed afternoons, and those quiet moments you actually remember.
100% of profits go back into education
Mama Washindi is more than a lodge. 100% of profits flow into From Nobody to Somebody projects — focused on schooling and training in Northern Uganda. Every stay supports real impact: calm, direct, and lasting.
