If you\u2019ve ever wanted to completely disappear into your own exotic wilderness then Nkwichi Lodge on the shores of Mozambique\u2019s spectacular Lake Nissa should be at the top of your list. Hidden amongst the African bush, this lodge is a magical combination of sugary-white sands and glittering lake shores. Leave your mobile phone at home (it won\u2019t work here anyway)\u2014this is our ultimate castaway retreat.<\/p>\n
As you arrive by boat, nothing can really prepare you for the dazzling beauty of Lake Niassa. One of the world\u2019s largest (and cleanest) freshwater lakes, it is chock-full of a staggering number of tropical fish in a rainbow of colours. If you thought that, being a lake, it wouldn\u2019t have any sand then think again\u2014the shores are blanketed in a fine, powdery-white (the kind of sand that squeaks when you walk on it). All of this is then ringed by pristine African forest to make it one of the most enchanting locations throughout Africa\u2014and believe us, we\u2019ve looked around.<\/p>\n
Landing on the lake shores you may be hard-pressed to spot any of the six chalets that lie hidden behind the trees and rocks. Each one has been designed individually to blend with the landscape and provide you with the utmost privacy. Huge rooms and verandas dotted with hand-crafted armchairs lie under the shade of thickly thatched roofs. All chalets come complete with four-poster beds made from tree trunks and draped with fairytale netted curtains. En-suites feature bathtubs carved out of the surrounding rock so that you can bathe by candlelight underneath a canopy of jungle. For a truly romantic evening, we can arrange a night under the stars in the lodge\u2019s aptly-named Star Bed, where you can dine lakeside and fall asleep under the Milky Way.<\/p>\n
Moonlit dinners, picnics on deserted beaches, canoe trips across a tropical lake\u2014everything about the Nkwichi Lodge is nothing short of spellbinding.\u00a0 With a maximum capacity of just 14 guests at any one time, you can have the experience your very own private escape. \u00a0Robinson Crusoe\u2014eat your heart out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
