The 2016 Lake of Stars music festival was held at Chintheche Inn in Nkhata Bay on Lake Malawi. Every morning the sun rises above the lake, turning the sky pink and gold. Worth getting up at 5am for.
Even without an amazing festival, Nkhata Bay is worth a visit for its stunning scenery. The area is about a 4-hour drive north of Lilongwe and has several lodges on the shores of the lake.

"Beautiful, quiet property. The staff were extremely accommodating. The food was delicious (I recommend the spaghetti bolognese!). It is about a 25 minute walk to downtown which wasn’t a problem for us. "

"A dated property that requires some attention in the rooms, bathroom needs updating. Outdoor is kept clean and neat gardens Lake Malawi views from the rooms was a bonus! Very friendly staff "

"The property is has the benefit of a fantastic location, good staff and good catering provision. Structurally, accommodations provide a bare minimum, sparsely maintained buildings with poor logistical infrastructure getting to the rooms. "
