    A little hard to find but worth the effort. A calm oasis next to a chaotic city. Very friendly staff and reasonably good food. Nice spacious bungalows with pleasant terrace and view.

    This is an amazing destination close to Lusaka. Loved the location in the heart of nature. I came for just a few days to recuperate during a heavy work schedule and needed to turn my health around. The staff were amazing. Thank you team Lilayi.
