Sunbird Livingstonia Beach Resort

Lake Malawi, Livingstone's Lake of Stars, is as long as the days of the year and as wide as the weeks. The Lake is home to well over 500 species of fish found nowhere else including many brightly coloured aquarium fish. Facing Bird Island on the Salima Lakeshore, is Sunbird Livingstonia Beach Resort.

It has 39 rooms, mostly in rondavel style, all simply furnished and decorated in local materials to the most tasteful international standards. Dining in the restaurant, set above the bougainvillea strewn and frangipani scented gardens, means a selection of the very best fish from the lake, among them the famous Chambo. This uniquely attractive hotel grows nearly all its own fruit and vegetables.
