Amazing Views!

I recently stayed at Sunbird Waterfront and was blown away by the hotel rooms. They feature stunning balconies with the best lake views I've ever experienced. It's truly a perfect place to unwind and enjoy the beautiful blue waters of Malawi. The serenity of the surroundings paired with the view made my stay lovely.

Anticipated Dining Experience

Although the restaurant wasn't opened during my stay, I was excited to hear about the potential for dining with a great view. The hotel plans to have its own restaurant, and I can't wait to return to experience the dining options once they are fully operational. For now, the quality of the food provided met basic expectations.

Active Getaway

Being sandwiched between the campsite and Livingstonia beach, I found plenty of opportunities for fun and adventure. The lake is safe for swimming, adding to the active experience I was seeking. It's a fantastic destination for anyone who loves the outdoors and water-based activities.
