Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Lake Malawi

Wonderful place. Will be great once the pool construction is complete.

We enjoyed staying at Hope's place so much, that we booked it for a second time. His place is amazing. I highly recommend staying there. we will surely book it again the next time we are in Lilongwe. thank you Hope!

Couldn’t have chosen a better. place. Apartment was beautiful and equipped with everything I needed (and lots of lovely touches / local design). Was welcomed by Rachael Edgar and her lovely boys. Great place , great location and host very helpful. I will definitely be back when I visit Chipata in the near future. Very many thanks :)

Sera was a superb host with a dedicated staff to make our stay feel comfortable. She quickly dealt with any of our concerns and made us very welcome. The guest house felt like home after just a few days and we settled in rather quickly, the beautiful compound was just the respite we needed from the busy city.

The house is beautiful, cosy and comfortable. The rooms are clean, spacious and some even with air-cons. The big kitchen is fully-equipped and there's plenty of fridge and freezer space. The pool is just perfect for hot days and relaxing. Ines the housekeeper is friendly and helpful, really made us feel like at home as did all the other staff too. Security is top-notch. Excellent place for short or long term stays in Lilongwe. The location is perfect since it's on the quiet side of town, away from all the dusty roadworks, but still close enough from Gateway Mall and other shopping places. Will definitely come again when visiting Mzuzu and highly recommend to anyone looking for a comfy stay in Lilongwe.

Had a great stay. Would recommend

The place is smart, clean and has everything you need! When Escom is off they have a generator as a back up. The place is central. We had a good time!

Alice is an excellent host and genuinely caring person, she has local contacts that can help troubleshoot anything with just a few mins notice. the house is 100% worth it especially if you have little ones. the house is stocked with lots of amenities and supplies, I wouldn't stay anywhere else in lilongwe! highly recommend booking!

Very nice place and a fantastic responsive host! We will be back!

Lovely new building. Furnishings are lovely. Some finer details need to be worked on, but overall a very nice unit. I believe this is a newer area and therefore the distance, lack of presence of other community members, and unstable wifi left my family in the need for a different rental. The owner, and what seemed to be the management team, went above and beyond to accommodate our many very last minute requests.

Wir haben uns sehr willkommen gefühlt. Das Zimmer war gemütlich und Mary und Yusuf waren sehr zuvorkommend und gaben uns auch wertvolle tipps. Als wir Abends noch in einem Restaurant waren, hat Yusuf uns sogar abgeholt, weil es bereits dunkel war. Mary hat sich noch sorgen darum gemacht wie wir nach der Abreise in die nächste Stadt kommen und hat uns viele Tipps gegeben und sich um ein Taxi gekümmert. Wunderbar für die erste Nacht in Afrika!

This is a great option, especially for those who are in Lilongwe for extended work, as I was. The apartment is big and comfortable in a really leafy and green section of Lilongwe, about a 45 minutes walk from the Central Business District. There are great restaurants about 20 minutes walk from the apartment. The apartment is in a small compound where the owner lives--their support was excellent, though it being Lilongwe expect some periodic power outages. The house is in a huge garden. Overall, I would stay here again and highly recommend the house.

The hosts were very welcoming - very attentive and helpful and made sure I had everything I needed. The apartment was well equipped with modern amenities and the hosts had even left some treats to enjoy! The apartment is a great place to stay in Chipata - quiet and peaceful, out of the main hustle and bustle of the town. I was there for work and it was the ideal place to stay. Cleaning staff are friendly and there is good security with guards on both day and night. I would highly recommend this apartment as an alternative to a lodge especially if you like to prepare your own meals and have flexibility. I look forward to going back in the future!

After 5 weeks of travelling in East Africa we wanted to upgrade from the very basic places we'd been staying. Mohammad's place was just what we needed before our long trip back to Canada. I have stayed in dozens of Airbnb's, ran my own in Canada for 7 years and cannot say enough about this place. If any of you have travelled in East Africa before, you can probably relate to the usual problems at most of the accommodations. In my 17 trips to EA & even in comparison to Airbnb's here, this place was one of my favourites. It was tastefully decorated, spotless, had a great design, beautiful, peaceful surroundings and supplied everything you might need and more. My favourite part of the stay was meeting and getting to know Mohammad and his family. Truly, outstanding people who were hard to say goodbye to. We walked into town for groceries, walked to the local market and enjoyed some great food in the area. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone travelling to Malawi!!

Feels like you are home... Very clean and friendly management. Best place to see in area 49 lilongwe.

This is a lovely nice and small place. very secure and private and would definitely book it again if in Lilongwe

I have nothing but praise for Michael and the accommodation at Wines & Wings. Even though the accommodation is adjacent to their wine shop and tour guide agency, I always felt very comfortable and totally undisturbed by the activities. The room is an open plan with a fully fitted kitchen and a living room area (with TV) and was always kept cleaned. Same for the bathroom. The room opened out to a generous terrace overlooking a tranquil garden. Michael was out of town, but very responsive. Nevertheless the staff at Wines & Wings were super, very well organized and extremely friendly. I highly recommend Wine & Wings and will certainly stay there again next time I pass through Lilongwe.

Modern apartments in a calm oasis with everything you need. Lovely pool area. Everything was super easy, Roland and Clara are really welcoming and kind hosts.

Our stay was lovely! Perfect for a big number of guests, and the staff there was so helpful! We had everything we needed, and some! The location was in new 43, so there is a short dirt road to take, but most of the way is paved. Would definitely stay here again!

The pool area is beautiful, and the space is comfortable and decorated in a really stylish fashion. Jam was really responsive for anything we needed. We enjoyed our stay!
