“I LOVE Chembe, it’s like a home away from home, and a regular destination for me over a long weekend; with my husband or a group of friends (but it’s a great spot for families too!). It’s situated right at the end of the Cape Maclear bay so you have your very own large, clean and private beach, free from passersby and vendors. The rooms are simple but comfortable, clean, en suite, with air-con, fan and all with a beach view! The swimming pool is a great win as well when all you want to do is be lazy and horizontal in the sun. The food is tasty, creative and carefully thought out with the owner’s chef son having taught the kitchen crew a thing or two about good food! The staff here are fantastic too, very friendly, organised and attentive. The lodge even has its own catamaran ‘Mama Afrika’ that can be rented with a skipper for a full or half day picnic excursion around the bay and surrounding islands.”
