Absolutely perfect stay! The property exceeded all my expectations, spotlessly clean, beautifully maintained, and incredibly comfortable.

My wife and I had a lovely stay at Ayonthoo! in the quiet outskirts of Area 43. Even without a vehicle, Ayonthoo! is an easy distance from places of interest in Lilongwe whether by taxi, motorbike taxi or public transport. Karen, the owner's niece, and her staff were warm, helpful and hospitable. Our en-suite room was spacious and comfortable. Breakfast was hearty and delicious. Drinking water is on tap. Having our laundry done gratis was a pleasant surprise. The Google Map address is accurate. Highly recommended.

The property is beautiful, but needs maintenance. If they will manage to bring it to life, it will be a great lodge. The people were superfriendly and the mango… omg… so delicious! And the location is perfect.
