This week I’m in love with this gem of a lodge located on the shores of Lake Malawi.
Lake Malawi is the eighth largest lake in the world and boasts a plethora of tropical fish, making it a great region for snorkelling. Malawi is a humble country known as the “land of smiles” and there’s something remarkably quaint about the region. If you want an alternative to your average your tropical-white-sandy-beach holiday, then consider Lake Malawi. You’ll still have white sandy beaches, warm swimming waters and tropical sun; but it’ll be on the shores of one of Africa’s great lakes.
Kaya Mawa Lodge is the ideal place to stay. Offering seclusion, privacy and remarkable natural surroundings it’s just perfect for a romantic getaway. The lodge is surrounded by Mango trees, boulders, beach and ancient baobabs.
What do I like about Kaya Mawa Lodge?
- They serve romantic candlelit dinners on the deck overlooking the lake.
- There’s a beach bar – Pina Colada’s while soaking up the sun!
- A variety of accommodation – choose from chalets on the beach or houses nestled into the rocks.
- The lodge is built in the most isolated corner of the country.
- The entire lodge was built by hand and all the labour used from the porject came from the island. Kaya Mawa is about community spirit!
