Thawale

Thawale Lodge is a classic tented camp nestled in the heart of Majete Wildlife Reserve, Malawi. This unfenced camp offers a truly immersive safari experience, with wildlife viewing opportunities right from the lodge, including elephants, lions, cheetahs, and wild dogs. The lodge features eight tented chalets and two family chalets, all designed for comfort and close-to-nature encounters. Guests can enjoy a unique bio-pool experience, central dining, an open-air bar, and a birding platform. Staying at Thawale Lodge directly contributes to conservation efforts and local communities, as 100% of its revenue supports the Majete Wildlife Reserve.
