Vacation rentals with a fire pit in Malawi

Floncy and Kondwani's home was an unforgettable local homestay base for us. This is the ultimate place to immerse yourself in Malawi culture. This community is a true village, with closeknit connections and an opportunity to meet many locals. The hosts are a young family (they have an adorable 3 year old as well), and they are incredibly kind. We opted for full board, which was amazing. Floncy is a wonderful cook, and we enjoyed learning how to make traditional dishes with her and chatting with the family during meals. We loved exploring Livingstonia by foot and on motorcycle taxis. The family also runs a community-based organization that is helping local elders, and we enjoyed volunteering with them! We've been traveling for 8 months, and this is one of our favorite places from our travels.

Davie was an absolutely amazing host and helped us with everything (application for the visa, picking us up at the bus stop, buying Sim card, showing us around and things like that). At his home we where part of the family although we just stayed for 2 days. But the whole family was really helpful and nice to us. We got food 3 times a day which was very delicious (local food that was cooked by his wife and we ate it with his family). Davies home is located in Karonga close to the lake and also close to the bus stop and shopping opportunities. So if you want to make an awesome experience and stay with locals and learn about their culture i can absolutely recommend this homestay.

I had a great experience here. Felt right at home. Access to a gym and the shops.

Very relaxing day spent on the verandah overlooking Lake Malawi watching fishermen going about their daily routine

Host was amazing. very easy to communicate and extremely helpful. She provided information about Lilongwe and Malawi in general. Place is situated in good location. Place suited my need for my overnight stay in Lilongwe. Recommended for budget traveller.

Fair for the price. But we had to deal with too many mosquitoes. Bathroom also needs some adjustments because it looks scary (we couldn't even take a shower in the morning)

Experience the captivating charm of rural Malawi, where stunning landscapes meet genuine community warmth. Waking up to sounds of the village is truly special and the views of Zomba mountain are amazing! Its the perfect backdrop for an African adventure. Feel at home with a welcoming community while making a meaningful impact through shared expertise and cultural exchange. Enjoy wholesome local cuisine, clean and authentic colonial accommodations in a beautiful environment. The Primary School and Nursery school are very close and guests are encouraged to get involved with the staff and students and you truly get an insight into life in the rural areas. The hosts were also very attentive and they were on hand to make sure everything went smoothly. Considering this directly benefits the school and the students that attend, we couldn't recommend this enough! Highly recommend this to anyone that wants an experience of the beaten track and also wants to contribute to a very worthy

Jam's space is very unique for Lilongwe. I loved the art and design. The air conditioning worked well and the pool was a lovely option for cooling off in the afternoons. The location was very good, less than 10 minutes to pretty much anywhere you need to go in town. Communication was quick, too.

The place is great!! Good location, the place looks great and is very clean.

this place is really special - beautiful surroundings, private pool, beautifully designed and equipped. Jam was very helpful and available for questions. the location was convenient, but a bit hard for taxis to locate, and data is not always available, so be prepared with analog map and instructions. But once you know you know, and I will be back!

I spent a weekend at Bruno's and could have easily gotten used to it and stayed longer if time allowed! He's a great and helpful host full of advice and very well-connected, but you definitely will have your own space too. Super safe neighborhood close to supermarket, ATM, restaurants and the like. Sweet dogs around too :)

Jam’s place in an amazing and outstanding spot in Lilongwe. Enjoyed my stay in the spacious, cozy, calm and beautiful Bougainvillea - and the pool area was a plus in the summer heat. The place got my highest recommendation and the host was also communicative and attentive during my stay.

Peaceful, luxurious place out side Lilongwe. The host was readily available with exceptional hospitality.
