A classic tented camp at the gateway to Majete Wildlife Reserve, Malawi
In a prime location, the lodge is set on the edge of a pristine waterhole that regularly attracts a wide variety of wildlife, including a family of elephants that often frequent the area. Within the reserve boundaries, the lodge is completely unfenced to give guests a unique experience in the natural surroundings. There are six tented chalets available – four twins, and two doubles – that look out onto the waterhole. The common areas consist of a central dining and restaurant lapa as well as a birding platform.
Thawale is a family-friendly property and a very accessible safari stop. For families, a purpose-built chalet is available, which includes two en-suite bedrooms, a lounge, and veranda. The lodge does not accommodate children 3 and under.
It’s best to explore Majete by vehicle or boat – both activities are on offer to Thawale guests. One can expect to have strong wildlife viewing, especially elephant sightings. In the summer months, the birding is excellent.
