Kikonko is open for business!

For all of you who have followed our blog for some time - we are finally open!



Lake Albert - viewing it from your sunbed






Our manager Abbe (who now changed his name from Albrecht to Albert in order to make it easier for the Ugandans to remember his name) has really done an amazing job with the final touches!


So Kikonko has opened its doors on the 6th of December 2019. The first guests came and absolutely loved the scenery, the food, the comfortable beds and the swimming pool.




 Now a whole new aera has begun: marketing, marketing and marketing. Stefan has become very conversant with social media marketing and Steffi talks to pretty much any safari car driver she can find on the roads of Kampala. 

 Our stickers are in the making and so are our new business cards and flyers.

Last weekend was the first time for me (Steffi) to be at Kikonko more or less by myself! Stefan and the kids are in Germany and Richard was taking care of things in Hoima. So it was me and the builders! This is how the final mosaic looks like! This gave me time to work on a floor mosaic in the restaurant and to start with more mosaic work in the bathrooms.

Heute mal ein deutscher Blogeintrag. Ich (Steffi) habe die letzten 5 Tage auf der Baustelle verbracht und mal wieder viel Fortschritt gesehen. Die Bauarbeiter sind an den letzten Kleinigkeiten dran, die Tischler bauen die Fenster ein und die Balkone an, der Installateur kümmert sich um die Angestelltentoiletten und den septischen Tank. Der Gärtner hat schon die direkte Umgebung um einige Häuser herum auf Vordermann gebracht. Und die Maler haben alle Häuser von innen und außen angestrichen. Sogar die ersten Badezimmer sind fast fertig gestrichen. Wir liegen in der Zielgeraden!! Eröffnung am 1.12. sollte machbar sein! Auch der Pool ist in Auftrag gegeben, allerdings müssen wir dafür noch sehr viel Auffüllarbeit in dem großen ausgeschachteten Loch leisten. Ich hätte nie gedacht, dass wir das Glas so transportieren können und nur 2 Scheiben dabei kaputt gehen Unsere Arbeiter beim Mittagessen - Bohnen, Maisbrei und Süßkartoffeln Die ersten Möbel sind auf
