This beautiful Lodge is located on an island in the scenic Lake Bunyonyi in the paradisiacal Kigezi highlands. In the west, the forests of Bwindi Forest National Park rise, the forest which houses the mountain gorillas. The local name of this Island is Njuyeera – which means the “White House” in the local Rukiga language; it has a great history. For about 50 years, it was the home of Dr. Leonard Sharp, a missionary and doctor in the early years of the 20th century. Dr. Sharp and his wife developed a beautiful home and made this island a unique place. If you visit it now, you dine in the original house and experience the joy of an impressive botanical garden. There are many different plants and flowers from East Africa and a vast population of exotic birds, which can only be found on this island. The island also offers a spectacular view to the lake and its surroundings at all different angles. The Sharp Island Lodge offers a combination of African flair and European standards.
