Set in a few hundred acres of bush, containing many wild animals. There are a group of bungalows well furnished with a lovely pool, you can see some of the wild animals that venture close to the lodge. The food is of very good quality and service is exceptional also. There is a safari available that will take you around the extensive grounds

We were so thrilled to be able to stay at Lilayi Lodge. It was such a unique experience for us to stay in this accomodation and we felt like royalty. The staff were helpful, amenities were great and the location was really convenient for us. We loved seeing some animlas crossing the road on the way into the reserve and the kids enjoyed a splash in the pool and saying hello to the tortoise that walked up. Breakfast was delicious each morning and we were so grateful to be able to have all our washing laundered there whilst staying.

Charming Lodge, on the outskirts of Lusaka, perfect place to stay if you looking to be out of the city in a bush setting. Old fashioned country club style with Rondaval rooms - large rooms, well appointed. The food is exceptional, and the Chef (Chris) presented a world class wine dinner experience. The Manager Scott was brilliant and was very hands on assisting with all requirements. A lovely place to stay pre or post safari in Zambia. Staff were extremely friendly.

I had two days to kill in Zambia and decided to check in at Lilayi Lodge after a recommendation by a colleague. I am so glad I did. Everything at the Lodge are top notch. The quality of construction of the lodges is very high, and then, the chef prepares excellent food. Very well-balanced flavors. Also, I am a Scotch Whisky fan and they have a good selection. Highly recommended.

My husband and I stayed here for a couple of nights at the beginning and the end of our Zambia trip. This lodge is beautiful with breath taking surroundings. There is everything you could possibly need and all the staff are more than helpful. We could not fault our stay. The food was fantastic and the Lilayi Wine is superb. The wine tasting experience is a must.

A lovely hotel about an hour and a quarters drive from the airport. Set in extensive grounds with a variety of wildlife wandering around - giraffe, zebra, wildebeest, antelope. Room was very comfortable and the hotel has a very nice restaurant which seems popular with locals too , which is always a good sign . Thoroughly recommend
