Beri Cottages

10/10 Excellent
"I thoroughly enjoyed my three week long stay at Beri Cottages during Feb-March 2026! What an oasis of beauty and tranquility welcomed me there—filled with flowering gardens, a crystal-clear outdoor swimming pool, a wood-fired steam bath and a fully equipped health club offering (free and really fun!) aerobics classes three times a week. I took full advantage of these amazing opportunities. My double-deluxe room was large and well-appointed, with air-conditioning, a fridge and a roll-around mosquito net. Beri Cottages also taps the creative talents of two excellent chefs, who prepare varied and delicious breakfast buffets each morning (at no extra cost) as well as made-to-order lunch and dinners, which easily accommodated my gluten-free diet. Don’t miss an opportunity to experience the fragrant fish curry, which became my favorite meal from their extensive menu. However, it was Beri Cottage’s kind and attentive staff I appreciated most! Special thanks to Patrick, Benda, Irene, Bosco, Robert and your entire talented team! After enjoying three weeks at Beri Cottages, I actually left feeling far more refreshed, physically stronger and healthier than when I arrived! In sum, Beri Cottages in Arua, Uganda is a terrific find. I can recommend it to you without hesitation and in the highest terms."
