Experiences at Red Zebra

The little things make a stay memorable.

Not every moment needs a special occasion.

Sometimes it's an afternoon spent in the gardens, a meal shared by the lake or an evening gathered around a braai as the day comes to an end.

At Red Zebra, we'd love to help you make a little more of your time at Lake Malawi.

From Lake to Table

There's a story behind the chambo on your plate.

Just 2.9 kilometres from the pier at Red Zebra Lodge, Lake Malawi Aquaculture raises chambo in the waters of Lake Malawi using cage culture technology.

Founded by our brother David Nkhwazi, the operation brings another chapter of our family's story to life, connecting the lake, the food on our tables and the future of sustainable aquaculture in Malawi.

From the waters where our chambo is raised to the meals prepared in our kitchen, it's a connection we're proud to share with our guests.

Afternoon Tea by the Lake

A little something for the afternoon.

Find a comfortable spot overlooking the lake, settle in with a pot of tea and enjoy a slower afternoon surrounded by the gardens.

Whether you're catching up with friends, celebrating a birthday or simply enjoying the company, let us help you arrange something special.

Garden Walks

Take the long way around.

Our gardens are one of the most loved parts of Red Zebra.

Among the palms, mango trees and green lawns, there's plenty to appreciate, from the plants and trees to the birds that make their home around the property.

Ask us about arranging a guided introduction to the gardens and the natural surroundings of Kambiri Point.

Proposals & Special Moments

Some questions deserve a beautiful setting.

A quiet moment in the gardens. A table arranged by the lake. An evening that becomes a story you'll tell for years.

If you're planning a proposal, anniversary or another special occasion, tell us what you have in mind.

We'd love to explore how we can help make it memorable.

Picnics & Lakeside Braais

Good company, good food and nowhere else you need to be.

Gather your favourite people for an afternoon picnic on the lawn or an evening braai beneath the stars.

With the gardens around you, the lake nearby and the familiar pleasure of food prepared and shared together, it's a lovely way to spend time at Red Zebra.
