Nkwichi is set in a beautiful and natural environment, a tranquil, fresh water oasis, unspoiled and untouched, and the lodge itself is dedicated to preserving the lakeshore. Situated on the Mozambique side of Lake Malawi, the lodge guarantees an indulgent escapist experience to all its guests that pass through, you will leave with the satisfaction of enjoying a wonderful authentic African experience and this little slice of heaven will be engrained in your heart.
I loved the wild and beautiful location. The rooms are spacious and very open and give a really wild feel to the setting. With open air showers and huge outside baths, my romantic bubble bath for one was pretty awesome. I also enjoyed the bar setting on the beach and the use of old dug-out canoes as a bookshelf, the bar and the sofas. Nkwichi have invested heavily in solar, which is a nice ‘green’ touch and compliments the supporting-local vibe.

Remote paradise, set in a pristine environment of swirling bedrock, sparkling white sand beaches, turquoise waters, and tropical jungle. The spacious rooms are built into nature and are open to it, you feel at one with Mother Earth here. Escapology at its finest, intrigue at every turn; even the most avid traveller will feel delights as would a child exploring its first foreign beach. Lunch at a 2000-year-old baobab tree, snorkelling with iridescent cichlid fish, sundowners after an afternoon hike, smiling and attentive staff – it is simply bliss.

Nkwichi is a remote paradise, with pristine white beaches. The rooms are built into the natural rock and they are lovely and spacious. It’s the perfect place to escape from the usual hectic modern-day life. There is no power so you can enjoy an all needed technology detox.

The Star Bed is a unique and unforgettable experience. It’s set on a deserted beach which is surrounded by baobabs. Enjoy a romantic evening with a loved one and gaze at more stars than you ever could have imagined, it’s the perfect way to see the gorgeous African night-sky.
Incredible food served daily; fresh fish straight from Lake Malawi and garden-fresh fruits and veg, all prepared by the team of wonderful local chefs. With great food and incredibly beautiful settings to enjoy your meals, it’s the perfect combination. From picnics on the white beaches to dinner under the stars, they create memorable experiences for all their guests.
Each chalet is tucked away into the treeline and built into the natural rocks. With every chalet individually designed they all have their own unique character. Local materials are used in each room and they blend in perfectly with the surroundings. Relax in the rock-pool bath and enjoy the breath-taking views of the lake. As well as the chalets there is a lovely private house. With access to a private beach and your very own chef and team, this is a wonderful spot to enjoy with friends or family.
