2 FRIENDS BEACH HOTEL
Géré par un Islandais installé depuis plus de vingt ans en Ouganda, le 2 Friends Beach Hotel est une bien jolie adresse. Les chambres, à proximité d'une petite piscine exclusive, sont pourvues d'un réfrigérateur, d'une moustiquaire, d'une théière, d'une télévision et d'un ventilateur (ou d'un climatiseur). De l'autre côté de la rue, l'esthétique restaurant-bar de l'hôtel est un endroit calme (hormis le samedi lorsque se produisent des musiciens ou lors de la retransmission d'événements sportifs) où il fait bon déguster un tilapia fraîchement pêché.
