The same is true along the lakeshore with a concentration in the south between Monkey Bay and Mangochi. Zomba Plateau has a new luxury hotel. A programme of privatisation has seen many of the rest houses and forest reserve lodges transformed into luxury or mid-range lodges, the equivalent of established hotels. New luxury en-suite accommodation is provided in permanent tents, rondavels, log cabins or bamboo huts. There is also good quality mid-price accommodation and camping.
Full catering is available.
Booking ahead is important especially at weekends and in holiday periods. There are campsites along the lakeshore, often near the hotels, and elsewhere in the resort and forest areas. Most game parks and reserves have campsites. Terms and Conditions apply.
