They upgraded me for free which was very nice. I booked another night after this. I didn't order dinner the first time. When I ordered the se9cnd time the scheduled sirloin steak turned inti two little pieces of chicken stew with lots of bone, not worth the money but otherwise everything was great. The cook is amazing. Marietta was fantastic.

The Staff at Waters Edge really are amazing. Our meals were delicious and timely. When our kids were still hungry, we ordered another pizza and it came hot and fresh in 15 minutes!
The AC was cold and everything was organized for our boat and drive safaris. Highly recommend this boutique hotel.

Breakfast was made to order. Place was cleaned well daily. Staff were superb-especially John, Agnes, Mabel, and Judy. I highly recommend this place for a peaceful and enjoyable experience.

This lodge is in the are close to diplomatic missions in a lovely section of Lilongwe. The facility is clean and the people try hard to meet all your needs. We had several electrical blackouts but that was no fault of the facility. They do have an electric generator that kicks in after a short while. Lovely surroundings, nice garden and good breakfast. I recommend it.

Without a doubt this is the best place to stay in the Zomba area. If I returned to Zomba, this is the only place to stay even if it meant driving up and down the mountain everyday because, otherwise, Zomba does not have any other truly nice places to stay. The Ku Chawe is excellent in every respect...food, service, friendly staff, and well-maintained gorgeous grounds and views of the valley. Beware the baboons as they are out of hand and the WIFI is not reliable unless you are in one of the main...

A more affordable option in Senga Bay, but still a very nice place in its own right. Much more personable than the more anonymous, bigger hotels. Super friendly staff and owner, great breakfast (with coffee!) and a big room with AC.

As previous reviews indicate, this is a wonderful setting, rivalling a Greek Island or even the Amalfi Coast in Italy. Beautiful view and accommodations. Very warm and friendly staff. Good food with many choices. Good hot water even with Solar. Would have liked internet access in the room and perhaps a little more attention to timely food delivery. We had a delightful stay!

Definitely the staff & owner who were so accommodating. The place turned out fantastic for our 2 weeks of stay.
Morning was so peaceful and surreal as the Wilderbeests & Zebras wondering next to our table. Overall, it was the staff that made all the difference.
