We stayed at Kulenga after a long trip on the Ilala ferry. The staff are super friendly, bed was comfy, the place very peaceful and the shakshuka breakfast really delicious!

It was almost as if we were close family. Nothing was too much trouble. Taffy was entertaining and was hugely knowledgeable of Malawi.

The room (in the back yard, double room with own toilet & shower) was very good for the price. The location is perfect, in a quiet area, and just a short walk to the village. The food was very tasty, with vegetarian options available. The staff was super friendly, always smiling. We stayed for 10 nights and wouldn't have wanted to leave. Try the sunset cruise with their catamaran :) also the National park is a short walk away from the lodge, so we took a hike towards the view point and to Otter Point.

Very kind and attentive team in all service areas, beautiful setting right on the lake with pool and spacious lounge areas; very safe place, nice bar with good drinks and always cold beer!! :-) The less expensive accommodations in the backside accross the road also offer everything you need for a basic and comfortable stay including laundry service;

Breakfast was great, but after a longer stay there could be more variation. The Dinner was great and staff very friendly. Rooms were sufficient and bathrooms clean.

Superb location right on the beach with a nice small pool. Very friendly staff and nice bar with good meals. I really enjoyed my three day stay at Thumbi View. Large comfortable bed with mosquito netting and lots of hot water and big thick towels! The village is quite small with a few lodges and restaurants and shops but everything you need is here. Went out to a local bar with a pool table one night which was full of locals and very friendly with great Malawian music playing. I will definitely be back.

Best place to stay in Cape Maclear. We stayed in a dorm and it was clean and nice. The breakfast and the views are amazing and the stuff is super nice and helpful. Thumbi View is the best place to stay if you need to relax by the pool or just hang out around. Def a place to come back!
