Malawi Accomodation

For the best experience, take a look at our selected lodges on Lake Malawi and the surrounding beach areas.

With a third of the country taken up by the lake, it is fortunate that Malawi has such beautiful lake shore beaches. Happily, the luxury hotels and lodges in Malawi take full advantage of the calm waters, golden sands and vast views. There is a widespread selection of properties on offer along Lake Malawi: some are authentically rustic, some embrace an island lifestyle aesthetic, and some are colorful and contemporary.

In our opinion, these Lake Malawi hotels offer a superb post-safari break, especially if you are after an authentic safari with some relaxation time at the end. As there are direct flights from Zambia's South Luangwa to Lilongwe, this is a perfect combination for a Zambia and Malawi safari.

"We were so elated that we selected Yellow Zebra to book our South African honeymoon. We worked with their staff for a little over two years as we were planning/booking our trip, reschudling our trip (due to Covid), and finally when we went on our trip.
