| TESTIMONIALS A Jewel in the Heart of Darkness If you get the chance to visit the Republic of Congo -- don't miss 
              the chance to spend a few nights at the Malonda Lodge located just 
              south of Pointe Noire. Malonda Lodge is truely an unexploited jewel 
              just waiting to sparkle!! Huts are situated on a hillside overlooking 
              the Atlantic Ocean -- each hut has a queen size bed, beautiful bathroom 
              with shower and air conditioning.  The common areas include a large dining hut and a separate bar/breakfast 
              hut. On that note -- the food here is AMAZING!! Ask which fish is 
              the freshest and go with it! The owners will likely be your waiters 
              and the chef is truely a gem. The pool is beautiful -- a curvy masterpiece situated on top of 
              the hill overlooking the Atlantic. Bring your sunscreen!!! Walk down the sculpted stairway to the beach to enjoy a swim in 
              the Atlantic -- the strong currents will test your strength so definitely 
              swim with care! If you venture onto the beach at night during the 
              right time of year, you may be luckly enough to spot sea turtles 
              nesting -- this is a very active turtle area. Also -- be wary of 
              leaving any of your belongings on the beach!! The locals like to 
              swipe sandals etc....... Enjoy your visit!!!
 Heaven in Africa, A very special place... Malonda Lodge is truly a hidden gem... The decor alone is worth the visit. The kindness, warmth and generosity 
              that we were shown made us feel like we were home and cared for 
              like family. The level of service is outstanding, and they have 
              thought of everything to make sure you have a nice stay. From the 
              moment we got there to the day we left. We couldn't have asked for 
              more. The food and wine are outstanding. Fresh fish, incredible filets 
              and delicious appetizers...  Many thanks to Grace & Gerard and their team for a memorable 
              stay. We recommend Malonda Lodge to anyone looking for a fantastic 
            experience!
 Excellent Lodge, Extraordinary Service  All the glowing reviews are right on – this is a fine place to stay, with charming hosts, a great setting, excellent food, comfortable accommodations, nice pool and all the rest. 
 Idyllic getaway               We had an excellent stay at Malonda. The staff was very, very courteous, including the owners Grace and Gerard. The view was always breathtaking. The rooms were very clean and comfortable. The whole place looked excellent by any standards, but superior compared to anything else one can find in the country or region.
