Pensions in Malawi

"Well kept clean house. The owner tried really hard to reach Western standard of living (limited by being in the Solomons of course). Solar hot water, large fridge/freezer of 300L plus. 24 hour electricity. No aircon but the house is extremely well ventilated. Open plan big kitchen, 4 burner gas hob, huge lounge with modern couches. 2 rooms + 1 bathroom on each side of the lounge, so totally 4 rooms and 2 bathrooms. Rooms are spacious, clean. Hot water shower! I wish I could share photos but booking.com doesn't have upload button."

1. The cost is per person, not per room, but somehow not clearly displayed on booking.com. 2. This is an isolated house on the water edge, private and peaceful, but 40min walking through muddy path to get to seghe town/Airport although a boat transfer is only 5min. You need to bring all your food in and cook during your stay. 3. You need to enquire about the boat transfer cost, to be clear what trips are included, and what are not, otherwise you will have surprise bill in the end. 4. The water pump stopped during my 2 showers, someone needed to run downstairs to restart the pump so I could finish my showers. 5. There is no mirror in the entire house, and no towel rails in either bathroom. Maybe the owner can install them?

"Very clean, spacious rooms and all over very nice atmosphere."

The water stream in bathroom was very slow.

"Sehr freundliches Personal (Fadima) - spricht neben Französisch auch Englisch Sehr schöner Garten Für Conakry eine ruhige Lage Bad ist sehr gut Sauber Schreibtisch Für Conakry ein guter Preis"

"Very nice host, trying to accommodate all my requests. Very authentic stay close to the volcano. The volcano and the red glow are visible from the hut."

As all activities and transport are organized by the host, I sometimes had to wait quite long time for the driver to arrive. This was not the hosts fault, but it is important to know when planning a trip to Tanna.

"Vriendelijke gastvrouw en -heer. Als je wilde kon Vatka lekker voor je koken. Landelijke omgeving."

Zelf koken ging niet makkelijk. Moest in het kleine keukentje, Vatka hielp dan wel.

"The place was so relaxing. The outdoor environment is so good."

Sharing the bathroom. However, it was not a bad thing.

"Pretty much everything. Clean, modern, comfortable, well equipped. Excellent WiFi and satellite tv."

Aucun.

"De host was erg vriendelijk en behulpzaam. We konden borden en bestek krijgen, was niet op de kamer. Dicht bij het strand. Wij hadden ochtendzon op het balkon. Er werd om de 2/3 dagen schoongemaakt en schone handdoeken."

Lawaai van de doorgaande weg. Geen binnenzitje. Hele krappe badkamer.

"We hadden last minute een gewone kamer geboekt, maar kregen een suite met een aparte zitkamer. Het hotel ligt aan het centrale plein van het stadje. We kregen vooraf ook een heel lange en sympathieke mail van de uitbaatster die je een goed beeld gaf van wat je wel en niet mocht verwachten."

Ik vond de bedden wat hard, en omdat we een kamer aan de voorkant hadden, hoorden we ook het geratel van de autobanden op de kasseien aan het centrale plein.

"Excelente el tamaño de la habitación incluyendo su cama con sus múltiples capas de colchas para arroparse. Tenia un parador pequeño para colocar los objetos y mochilas. El baño contaba con agua caliente al girar la perilla derecha con la izquierda al ser el de frío regulaba que tan caliente uno deseaba. Excelente servicio a la habitación, incluso proveen con más rollo de papel higiénico en caso de requerir. El hotel y sus lugares aledaños son muy tranquilos y seguros. Igual uno debe ser precavido para evitar cualquier situación. La dueña del hotel responde casi inmediatamente si se presenta una novedad."

Lamentablemente uno se percató al momento de elegir en booking.com. No especifiqué desayunos, por ende no recibí mi desayuno. La habitación no estaba aislada del frío - no contaba con calefactor. La habitación solo contaba con dos jabones y no contaba con 1 satchet/frazo pequeño de shampoo.

"The place is not a 5-star guest house, and I was pleasantly surprised by the way I was treated. The staff were lovely, the rooms were clean, and the facilities were better than some of the hotels I have stayed in across Africa. My bed was even a TV bed — I connected my MP3 player and listened to music through the bed speakers… great experience! The location is excellent, with the airport just a stone’s throw away. The staff even went out to buy takeaway food for me when I requested it, which I really appreciated. I do wish they had WiFi, but I understand they may be keeping their costs down. However, I was given a pre-loaded SIM card to make calls to my family, which was a thoughtful gesture."

"The staff was very friendly, helpful & efficient Lots of good places to eat, supermarket with imported goods & sundry shops all at walking distance There's a mini refrigerator, ironing board & washing machine for such a good price!"

The only drawback was the heater kept switching off & I had to get the staff to turn it on a few times

"Nous avons aimé le calme de la propriété, le confort de la chambre. L'accueil est chaleureux. Nous reviendrons sans hésiter."

"Het is heerlijk schoon, leuke nieuwe binnentuin. En fijne schommelbank boven. Veel plekjes om lekker te zitten. Eigenaar en personeel zijn erg vriendelijk, attent en behulpzaam. Ontbijt was elke dag heerlijk. Ligging is dichtbij de bus terminal en het centrum."

Alles was goed, wij hebben genoten

"De grote tuin waar je uitzicht had op de regio. Maar ook de faciliteiten in het huisje die ervoor zorgden dat er altijd iets te doen was! Ook wil ik vooral de kwaliteit van de bedden vermelden want ik heb HEERLIJK geslapen."

"Beautiful location and a more friendly owner is hard to find! Shodman ate dinner with us, told us about the area, took us on a fantastic hike and helped organize our trip back to Samarkand. The food was among the better we had in Uzbekistan."

The only thing that was not great was that since we were there in November it was pretty cold at night even inside when eating etc but they had heating fans which worked quite well.

"Ligging, kamer keuken zithoek Heerlijk voor paar dagen en centraal gelegen"
