Rated 5 out of 5
"I spend two day trips at Luwawa during my time in Malawi and both occasions were wonderful. We did an orienteering day trip with maps around the forest which was beautiful, and we also took one of the kind, interesting guides on a walk to a waterfall which was stunning. the food was good and George the owner was really welcoming."

“My family camped here 2 nights in March. The owners and staff were very friendly and accommodating. We went on some very nice walks, canoed on the lake, and enjoyed the beautiful scenery. As campers, we were allowed to eat in the dining area and the food was delicious-healthy and homemade. I recommend staying here!”
