Kumbali Country Lodge
Salima Road, Lilongwe, Malawi – Great location - show map
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
