I was slightly concerned on booking about getting there as there wasn't much info on the website, but as soon as I confirmed my booking with ebookers the hotel was in touch to tel me everything I needed - including details on drivers from Lilongwe and how I could book a boat time to suit my arrival (at an extra cost which was very clear and totally worth it for an extra night). It was easy to find thanks to the very clear instructions provided; and the staff were all fabulous - from the boat man who picked me up, to the manager, to the bar staff and restaurant staff - not forgetting the fabulous cleaners who even cleaned and tidied my room the morning of check out as I had asked for a late check out!! The location is spectacular, I went on morning walks each morning, and the room incredibly comfortable and I had no problems with bugs. they are very clear on when there is electricity, and the wifi worked the whole time. The food was delicious, the drinks cheap, and the staff so seeet and helpful - never letting me carry back even a coffee mug to my room without helping!! I had the most wonderful stay, and will definitely be back. Many thanks to all, Jessica ##### jessica Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Feb 26, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A real gem Blue Zebra was a special experience. The usland is beautiful, the welcome and service from all the staff was too quality. The food was excellent, varied and with plenty of choice and always well presented. If you want a place which was off the beaten track and which will give you a great reaxing holiday then this is hard to beat. would recommend to anyone. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### UJ, Cape Town Jul 19, 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Blue Zebra Island Lodge Excellent service on this marvellous little island resort! ##### UJ ### 10/10 Excellent #### Heather Apr 12, 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Water holiday It's paradise! We had spectacular weather, the beach was relaxing. Scuba diving in the lake was fun for the whole family, kayaking and snorkeling are good too. The tent rooms are basic and the food was fine. Waking up to all the birds singing and taking a hike at dawn were also highlights. ##### Heather ### 10/10 Excellent #### Trevor & Glynis Welbourne, South Africa Oct 13, 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Remote location but worth it The location is quite remote and takes a while to get there from Lilongwe but once there it is worth the trip. Hosts Estelle and Matt and Steve were very friendly and accommodating, as were all the staff. Chalets are unique and very comfortable. Food was good and plentiful. We really enjoyed our stay! ##### Trevor & Glynis Welbourne ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Best Western Plus Cairn Croft Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Cairn-Croft-Hotel.h16369.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near River Rock Casino Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/River-Rock-Casino-Resort-Hotels.0-l553248621532863660-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels near Cascades Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Cascades-Casino-Hotels.0-l553248635924196606-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Moon Palace The Grand Cancun - All-inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Cancun-Hotels-The-Grand-At-Moon-Palace-All-Inclusive.h15194504.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Penticton](https://www.expedia.ca/Penticton-Hotels.d4135.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in Holguín](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Holguin-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d553248633850344177-tAllInclusiveHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Hotels in Callander](https://www.expedia.ca/Callander-Hotels.d6141113.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Disney's Grand Californian Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Anaheim-Hotels-Disneys-Grand-Californian-Hotel-And-Spa.h692655.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Stonebridge](https://www.expedia.ca/Stonebridge-Saskatoon-Hotels.0-n553248635976007256-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Sandman Signature Edmonton Downtown Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Edmonton-Hotels-Sandman-Signature-Edmonton-Downtown-Hotel.h16761.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Providenciales (PLS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/pls/calgary-to-providenciales) > > [Flights from Pearson Intl. to NYC-All Airports](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/nyc/toronto-to-new-york) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Kingston (KIN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/kin/calgary-to-kingston) > > [Flights from Narita (NRT) to Nanjing (NKG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/nrt/nkg/tokyo-to-nanjing) > > [Flights from Colorado Springs (COS) to Edmonton (YEG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/cos/yeg/colorado-springs-to-edmonton) > > [Flights from Cassidy (YCD) to Puerto Vallarta (PVR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ycd/pvr/nanaimo-to-puerto-vallarta) > > [WestJet Thunder Bay (YQT) to Calgary (YYC) flights](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flight-routes/westjet-from-thunder-bay-intl-to-calgary-intl/ws/yqt/yyc) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Panama City (ECP)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/ecp/toronto-to-panama-city) > > [Flights from Winnipeg (YWG) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ywg/yyz/winnipeg-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Kamloops (YKA) to Edmonton (YEG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yka/yeg/kamloops-to-edmonton) ### Cars ### Activities > [Things to do in Edmonton](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Edmonton.d180002.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Totem Mall](https://www.expedia.ca/Totem-Mall-Fort-St-John.d6221352.Vacation-Attraction) > > [Scottsdale Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Scottsdale.d9829.Destination-Travel-Guides) ### General
