Beside the clear waters of Lake Malawi, lies this private four-bedroom Villa which opened in 2011 on Likoma Island. This large family villa is part of a bigger complex but stands separately from everything maintaining its privacy. The house is located on the South West corner of the island with uninterrupted views across the neighbouring island and on to mainland Malawi 72 km away. A year round sunset is a secret surprise, the only place on the island and probably the only place on the lake.
It is a Villa for up to eight people, it is self-contained and fully staffed with a nanny, a cook, a housekeeper, ground staff and watchmen.
Getting to Likoma Island requires a charter flight, so we wouldn't suggest it for less than 3 days, but for a group who want some relaxing time by the lake, this would be a lovely place.
The Villa comprises of four bedrooms, three of which are ensuite the other, a twin room, ideal for children with a bathroom located right outside the door. Eight people can stay in the house with access to the private beach, to the kitchen and to the large living area.
A beautiful pool is available for the lazy days when the lake seems too far away.
The turquoise and dark-blue fresh water of Lake Malawi is literally clean enough to drink. Turked into a calm lagoon close to the lake's eastern shore lies Likoma Island, a small Malawian oasis just a stone throw from the Mozambique border

Far offshore from Chintheche, but only 7km from Mozambique, lies a small island covering an area of 17km², called Likoma Island. Nearer to Mozambique than Malawi, Likoma Island is a small island in Lake Malawi. Its inhabitants are mostly fishermen, but there are a couple of tiny villages, one bush road, a few vehicles and a few bicycles. There is one town, Likoma Town, and (amazingly) here you'll find St Peter's Cathedral - the third largest cathedral in Central Africa! Built in 1903, this remarkable building is about the same size of Winchester Cathedral and is of real architectural and cultural interest. Inside, you'll not only find a lovely working cathedral, but also a great deal of carved soapstone and stained-glass windows kept in perfect condition. The island's sandy beaches and secluded coves have some of the best snorkelling and diving in Malawi.
