Lake Victoria
Serena Resort and Spa, Kampala
is
styled to replicate the lines of a classically rustic
Roman villa, which might just as easily stand amid the
sunflowers of the Tuscan Hills, as on the shores Lake
Victoria - Africa's largest lake and is complemented
by a golf course, marina and luxury residential complex.
Rising
above white-terraced rose gardens, which descend through
water cascades and fountains almost to the shores of
Lake Victoria, Lake Victoria Serena Resort has been
positioned so as to offer both a contrast and an extension
to the 5-star profile of the flagship Kampala Serena
Hotel, thus ensuring that the Serena portfolio embraces
all aspects of Uganda's social and corporate life.
Lake
Victoria Serena Resort is a gracious
terracotta and cream palace, the central citadel is
encircled by broad café and cocktail terraces,
where cushioned sofas invite relaxation.
Above the marble reception,
where a Roman fountain plays, white-arched galleries
rise to a clear glass atrium, through which shafts of
light illuminate the fountained courtyard below.
Beyond the mosaic frescoes
of the main restaurant, a clock tower rises above the
pool-deck where colonnades of white arches offer the
perfect frame for the hazy blue of the lake and the
encircling green of the Lweza Hills. Widely spaced amongst
the rose gardens, clusters of pastel-painted villas
offer a choice of rooms and suites, all with panoramic
lake views.
