I liked this lodge it is really nice and peaceful for family. Our host, Tamanya, is very kind and friendly. When we have some issues, she is ready to help it out. For myself to cook is really comfortable and Yasin and Alik these staff guys are really quiet and polite. Security is very safe. When we come to Lilongwe, we directly come here. But I am afraid after my review it will be full of all spaces when I come here.😄😄 But I wanted more enjoy from place for barbique and swimming pool. Our next coming, I will do that. Thank you for all guys here and for the owner to build like that building in Lilongwe.

The green, well manicured garden gave me the breath of fresh air that I needed on my birthday. The swimming pool was warm and clean, my room was sparkling clean and they made my birthday morning very nice. They sang for me plus a "cake". Lizzy, in particular, was very welcoming and warm. Thank you, Kumbali. I will come again

    We have been talking about this, because we would return without hesitation. The welcome is as good as anywhere I have ever stayed – it is small and it has the feel of a family home. Nothing is too much trouble. Everything is done with a smile, and the staff will universally go the extra mile. Our laundry was donedaily, and when the vegetarian asked for a different main course, it was willingly provided. The honesty bar is a pleasure – and whoever chooses the Wine knows what they’re doing. You will enjoy it here.

    I stayed at the hotel for 11 nights for work in. July 2024. I would highly recommend green elephant for anyone visiting Malawi for business or pleasure. The facilties in general were fantastic however it was the staff who really made the stay particularly wonderful. Everyone was so helpful, kind and warm. Nothing was too much trouble! Also the food and drinks were great with a good variety.

    We only stayed for one night after arriving late but the welcome was excellent. The flat is clean and well equipped, the mattresses are of good quality and the area is quiet. And in the morning we were lucky enough to have an excellent breakfast, very complete, prepared by the chef in the flat kitchen. We would recommend this accommodation. Communication was very good and accommodating.
