Chamilandu camp offers a comfortable retreat in one of the Luangwa Valley's prime remote river locations. A series of 7 ox-bow lagoons attract a diversity of wildlife. The accommodation is in the form of 3 'tree-houses', which blend modern and classic decor and offer views over the Luangwa River and the magnificent Nchindeni Hills. The rooms are made of grass and thatch and on raised decks.
Each 'tree-house' is up on 2 metre stilts and is luxuriously furnished in a rustic style. Refurbished in 2010, the houses are decorated in soothing creams and pastel shades and feature wrough iron and brass fittings. All have a 4 poster bed. There is a large deck area with lounger and 180 degree views across the river and beyond. The rooms have stylish outdoor bathroom facilities with a shower and hot and cold running water.
The camp offers both morning and evening walks and combinations of day and night game drives. After a dawn walk, guests can enjoy a hearty brunch then relax before a late afternoon game drive. These are both excellent ways to observe the wildlife of the area, led by skilled and experienced guides.
