Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Lake Malawi

If you are ever anywhere close to this place, make sure to stay. What an amazing experience. Would recommend to anyone :) !! Lovely people on site, great communication and the place just breathtaking.

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 :)

We had a wonderful stay as we came up from the weekend during our medical rotation. The place was beautiful and was a relaxing getaway. The staff was very welcoming and ensured that our stay was as comfortable it could be. Definitely recommend!

Happy to stay with Nicola and her family again on a work trip to Lilongwe. Just as comfortable, convenient, and welcoming as the previous two times I have stayed there.

A perfect home away from home! With a lovely pool and great garden and hot water and a huge generator to sort out the regular powercuts.

Isabel’s place is lovely. Intimate and cozy, very highly recommended for a couple passing through Lilongwe.

Very clean place . Will go back again

Everything went smoothly with Chris. He is an excellent host and the apartment is very comfortable.

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!

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.

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!!

Comfy air bnb, perfect location if you are looking for a quiet location to catch up on some work.

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!
