AI Summary
An AI-summarized snapshot of real guest reviews
Guests appreciate the spacious rooms with comfortable beds, charming chalets with lake views, and exceptional staff service at this lakeside property. However, they find the food portions small and pricing overpriced. It's near the Ilala ferry and a private beach.

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

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.

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.

Stayed three nights for a wedding. Chose to stay in one of the old rooms due to expecting to need air-conditioning albeit during rainy season. Unfortunately power grid was offline first day and solar power unable to cope with load and there is no generator back-up. Hot water not hot and sometimes faded into nothingness. Room itself bit basic and would benefit from renovation. After viewing other guests chalets which were newer, lighter and with a pleasant breeze with a view I would opt for that in preference. Food was fine but nothing special. Platform bar was closed during stay and Wi-fi did not work due to "network problems". Private beach and location was good.

My husband and I just got married here and I couldn't have asked for more. The venue itself is stunning and we had specifically chosen it due to the wonderful previous experiences we'd had there. However, I didn't expect Jane, Omi and the rest of the team there to go so out of their way to make our day so magical. Jane organised everything herself, going above and beyond, and even made the wedding cake herself which was delicious. I dont know if we'll ever be able to thank them enough but I can 10000% recommend a stay there, you won't regret it! <3

Safari Beach Lodge is a hidden gem. Go there. It is wonderfully landscaped with charming, secluded chalets and a staff full of genuine warmth. Special thanks to Jane, the Manager, for going out of her way to fulfill a special request. The chalet was both traditionally Malawian and charming, with a private balcony that allowed viewing of the Ilala as she anchored at dusk. The menu is not expansive, but if you love Malawi, as I do, you will savor the choices and quality. Thanks to all. A return is planned.

II couldn't recommend staying at the Safari Beach lodge more. The setting is idyllic and the staff are super friendly- going out of their way to ensure you have a good stay. The rooms are basic, however, you are not going there to stay inside your room- but instead you will be enjoying the stunning views from the property and the wildlife surrounding them (especially the monkeys!). There are a number of activities available too, we got a boat to lizard Island and you can do a guided hike. I thought the food was great too- one evening the staff organised a meal on the terrace for us overlooking the lake- such a special evening. I will remember this trip for years to come- thanks for such a memorable stay!
