The WiFi does not work!

The staff are wonderful and very consistent of disability. The restaurant is excellent with a large menu and reasonable prices. The Indian food is especially good. The surroundings are stunning. There is a farmers market there one Saturday a month

The room was clean, and facility nice but my room had an issue with the AC, it was a little bit warmer than I would’ve liked. But I can easily overlook this in balance with the rest of the place.

This is a very unique property in the very center of the Lilongwe . It has a completely different feel, more like a camp than a hotel in the city. The food was excellent, they have a great menu with Malawi specialties as well as an Indian menu. The owner made a point of stopping by my table to see how I was enjoying my stay. Very friendly and capable staff. Was fun to watch all the monkeys that run around the outside of this place.

WiFi was very unreliable.

Rustic self-contained accommodation in a peaceful setting with nature all around. Location convenient for getting into town, well-maintained pool.

The floor is a bit dusty but I guess it can’t be avoided. I brought my own indoor slippers so problem solved.

Spacious room and bathroom. The property is in a sanctuary area so it’s very beautiful all around. The staff were super nice and helpful.

My room had a very strong odor of bug spray.

Nice grounds and fun to see the monkeys!

Very disappointed the swimming pool was closed for maintenance. The chalet was clean but felt a bit damp and slightly dingy in the rainy season but the air con was a life saver. ( there was also a bit of a nasty smell outside the chalet in the mornings)

Good location. Walking distance to visiting the wonderful Lilongwe Wildlife Trust & easy taxi ride to/ from town. Restaurant, waiter service & food first class. Nice outside seating/ eating area for meals/ coffee/ beers etc. Comfy beds & bedding.

The Indian food is amazing - the best dinner we had in Malawi.

Uneven ground and a broken toilet seat

The staff and the fact that there was a good restaurant on site

Stayed in January 2024

Missing basic things in the room (tissue box, hairdryer, etc). It's pretty far down a dirt road from the main town.

Pretty wooded area and great Indian food.

It's just a little dated. And a would be better value for money. Travelling for work is fine but not sure I would pay that if I was on holidays...

The scenery and food are great.

Wifi (router) did not work in my room and was not fixed during my stay. Breakfast was so-so. Limited choice and unattractive presentation

Good follow up regarding airport shuttle service when departing

Wonderful location with excellent staff and service. Restaurant offers great selection of cuisines.

The room needed a refurbishment, the bathroom was not in good conditions at all. The safe deposit box was broken, I needed two days to get a new room with a working one. The lighting in the room was poor. The bednet had some holes.

The restaurant was outstanding, very tasty food. Staff was friendly and helped as much as they could, they allowed me to work with other colleagues in the meeting room in front of the reception. Room was very spacious.

Nothing negative to say about the accommodation. Here you can experience the warm heart of Africa.

Delicious food on the A la carte menu, service is excellent and professional. The staff was amiable and helpful.

Stayed in June 2023

Room was a bit musty; room spacious but a little dated however it did not detract from the stay.

Only stayed one day; however watching the animals at play was great; service good; down the road from the wildlife centre. Lilongwe is very spread out so will need taxi to visit attractions. The food was very good and affordable.

Stayed in April 2023

At times the internet could drop out. But no complains really. I could still watch my favorite TV series on streaming service.

The staff were always friendly and helpful. The food and menu looked extensive. I should have had more time to try it all. The restaurant is packed every evening which tells a lot. Loved the monkeys!

friendly staff, delicious food, comfortable and large rooms

Stayed in March 2023

The rooms are clean but need renovations. Stayed in two different rooms. All have wardrobes that cannot close., one of them had the curtain rail broken and resting on the wardrobe.

The hotel staff very friendly. Management was always available to chat to me as a guest. The food was superb. Its quiet and good for a work related stay.

Accessibility for people with mobility problems can be improved: They provided pathways for people using wheelchairs or walking aids, and there was a road sign telling people not to park and block the path to the restaurant/reception area, but the guard didn't correct people who ignored this sign. Some parts between the path between the cottages and the path to the restaurant should be hardened because it gets muddy and that's not nice for wheelchair users. Also they should put hand railings alongside the steps into the pool.

Everything to do with food was excellent. They have a very well functioning restaurant with a great variety of menues: Indian Menue, Malawi menue, Italian menue. It would take many days to try and taste everything they offer. The environment is wonderful, a wood in the middle of Lilongue and plenty of playing monkeys that pass by you daily. Even deer were seen near my cottage as well as other animals. Electricity was always functioning. The internet depended of where you were but they listen to your request and do all they can to improve whatever you have mentioned to them.
