Accommodation

Lake Malawi

Awaken to the call of the African Fish Eagle for another glorious day at the charming Norman Carr Cottage situated along the sandy beaches on the southern shores of Lake Malawi. This idyllic romantic retreat is right on the beach tucked away under a canopy of large indigenous trees, a perfect hideaway of sun-drenched beaches and turquoise waters.

Mumbo Island is a pristine and deserted tropical island, and the undisputed jewel of the Lake Malawi National Park.

Mumbo Island has never been populated, and is still in its natural state with a thick covering of miombo woodland and ancient fig and baobab trees.

The waters around the island are clean and calm, and allow all guests – irrespective of fitness or experience – to enjoy sea kayaking, snorkeling and SCUBA diving. The island’s only mammals Spotted-necked Otters – are remarkably playful and regularly join guests for a snorkel or swim.

Blue Zebra Island Lodge is nestled on Nankoma Island, part of the Marelli Archipelago: an unspoiled paradise under the protection of Lake Malawi National Park (a UNESCO World Heritage Site).

Located high on the Nyika Plateau within Nyika National Park, Chelinda Camp overlooks a crystal-clear dam with panoramic views of rolling hills, isolated ridges and open high-altitude grasslands. Accommodation at Chelinda Camp consists of two options. There are four chalets which have two bedrooms, a bathroom, lounge, dining area with a fireplace and a small kitchen. There are also six en-suite rooms with twin beds, which share a dining, bar and lounge area complete with comfortable furnishings and an inviting fireplace for those cosy nights.

The lodge is a welcoming place and radiates peace and tranquility. We offer comfortable, clean and tastefully decorated rooms and chalets, friendly personal service, great food and awe inspiring views of both the lake and the Vipya Mountains.

Ngala Beach Lodge is unique in that it offers a view of both sunrise and sunset over the water.

On the white sandy beaches of Likoma Island sits Kaya Mawa, a boutique lodge that welcomes honeymooners, families and friends for an indulgently carefree getaway.

Meaning ‘maybe tomorrow’ in Chichewa/Nyanja, the ethos of Kaya Mawa is in its name. Relaxed lakeside living is woven into the style, luxury and comfort of its Houses and Rooms. Dinner by starlight, massage therapy at our spa, and snorkelling in turquoise waters – it’s just another blissful day at Kaya.

Built by local hands and as Malawi’s first resort run solely on renewable-energy, Kaya Mawa is firmly grounded in sustainability, community empowerment and ethical trade.

Lake Malawi covers more than 15% of the country, and is the most beautiful of Africa’s great lakes. Sunbird Chintheche is set on the pristine northern shores of Lake Malawi, famed for its clear warm waters and white sand beach.  The resort is only 82 km from Mzuzu and 97 Km from Dwangwa.The surrounding area is characterized by fishing villages and patches of lowland tropical forest.

Situated right on the beach and tucked away under a canopy of large indigenous trees, the lodge consists of 3 spacious, airy and luxurious en-suite rooms. All have king size beds and outdoor ‘sky view’ showers. Huge nets and fans to keep cool as well as tea and coffee making facilities.
Our renowned cuisine offers full catered home cooked meals that are enjoyed in the panoramic restaurant on the rock, overlooking the Lake.

Luxury accommodation, friendly personal service and stunning views over Lake Malawi combine to make Pumulani Lodge the perfect African beach lodge.
