Kaya Mawa

Kaya Mawa, meaning “maybe tomorrow,” is a boutique lodge nestled on the white sandy beaches of Likoma Island in Lake Malawi. It offers an indulgently carefree getaway for honeymooners, families, and friends, where relaxed lakeside living is seamlessly woven into the style, luxury, and comfort of its accommodations. Guests can indulge in starlit dinners, rejuvenating spa treatments, and snorkeling in the turquoise waters. The lodge, built by local artisans, stands as Malawi’s first resort run entirely on renewable energy, demonstrating a strong commitment to sustainability, community empowerment, and ethical trade. Each of the 11 unique Houses and Rooms are designed to blend organically with the natural rock formations and sand of the bay, offering exquisite lake and beach views; some even feature private decks, plunge pools, terraces, courtyards, and dining areas. Kaya Mawa provides a truly unforgettable and inspiring experience, making it the perfect destination for slowing down and creating lasting memories. The property is open seasonally from April 1, 2025 - January 3, 2026. This is a dream destination for romance, family vacations or exclusive private escape. Kaya Mawa with a private chef and endless lakeside activities serves as a luxurious escape from the world. You can also pair Kaya Mawa with Shawa Luangwa Camp or Ila Safari Lodge for an extended safari. Whether you seek thrilling activities, tranquil relaxation, or meaningful community engagement, Kaya Mawa provides an idyllic setting where every moment is cherished.
