Macondo Camp

Top choice in Malawi


Run by Italian couple and serial overlanders Luca and Cecilia, Macondo has cute rooms in the main house, tented chalets with wooden decks overlooking the lawn and banana trees, and an annexe with dorm beds.

The restaurant is one of Mzuzu's best and the bar is a pleasant spot in which to pick up local knowledge from Luca over a beer.
