Very convenient to Ilala. Nice location We stayed in the standard room which included a double bed upstairs and a single bed downstairs with a shower and toilet outside of the room but not very far to walk. It had a lovely balcony that overlooks the water. The service was very attentive and the employees were very friendly and helpful. we took an interesting tour of the local fishing village and hiked up to a peak for a view. As we were vegan they really went out of their way to accommodate us. It is pretty close to where the Ilala ferry comes in.

Overpriced tourist lodge ,and need of maintenance. Mattresses are a disaster. Power was off most of the time although generator on site.The toilets in the room we stayed in had no seat, the shower was scary . The pool is a nice touch that almost makes up for the fact that the beach access is garbage here. Better you go to sunbird Livingstonia .The surroundings at the lodge were beautiful, but again all the furniture was falling apart and just looked very tired. We will be staying somewhere else the next time we go to Senga Bay.

The place is serene and always a good getaway surrounded by water, monkeys and cozy chalets fit for different family sizes. Beach is excellent for meditation at sunrise or at sunset if you prefer. Staff are friendly and ready to help 😺 The breakfast was however cold and there was no variety compared to the other visits.

The lake is very full at the moment so there is no beach and the area next to the lake is dirty, but that is not their fault. Better to check lake levels before booking this place else you will have no beach. Nice location next to the lake, set a bit above the lake. Lovely, well-kept gardens. Chalets are comfortable if you don't mind climbing down steep stairs to the upstairs room. Very nice bar and the view from the bar at sunset is is wonderful. Breakfast was very good. There were no internet on the first day, following morning only intermittent internet at reception. The cellphone signal is also very bad.

Part of a group of 9. Enjoyed our two night stay, very relaxing and staff all very friendly and helpful. Two minor problems with one chalet resolved quickly and efficiently when mentioned to management.

Die Aussicht aus den Zimmern ist super schön und das Personal sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Allerdings ist die Anlage im Vergleich zu anderen Unterkünften etwas in die Jahre gekommen und der krasse Aufschlag von 60% für "Nicht-Locals" ist happig. Für 75.000 MAK wäre die Unterkunft mit allem, was sie bietet wirklich fair und empfehlenswert. Aber für 120 Dollar die Nacht erwarte ich auch in Malawi einen anderen Standard. Wir waren 2,5 Wochen im Land unterwegs und haben viele Unterkünfte in unterschiedlichen Preissegmenten gesehen, aber hier war das Preis-leistungsverhältnis wirklich nicht besonders gut. Das Essen ist okay, aber für das, was geboten wird, zu teuer. Da lieber ins nahe gelegene Sunbird zum Essen gehen. Auch ärgerlich war, dass gefühlt 50% der Menükarte nicht vorrätig war. Hier würde ich eine kleinere Karte oder eine Art Tageskarte empfehlen, sodass man nicht immer die Antwort bekommt, dass das gewünschte Gericht gerade aus sei. Wie gesagt für 75.000 ist es in Ordnung, aber den Touristenpreis ist es nicht wert.

Not cheap to be Malawi, and far away of a luxurious lodge. Room with an uncomfortable bed, bad light, poor food, dirty swimming pool... Just a nice view and monkeys in the area. The price should be less keeping in mind that we are in this country and with this level of service and comfort.

The best place to take off the stress of busy life. And also kids love this place. It's secluded and I love the monkeys and the wild feeling it brings The chalets are affordable and good for a medium sized family
