Lilayi Lodge  

Set on 650 hectares of game-rich grounds just 30 minutes from central Lusaka, this safari-style game lodge sits outside the city but close enough for a quick trip in. Nearby highlights include Kalimba Reptile Park, Namwandwe Gallery and Lusaka City Market. Family-friendly chalets offer a proper bush escape without a long transfer.

Twelve individually furnished chalets mix modern elegance with classic lodge touches and verandahs that look out over roaming giraffe, zebra, wildebeest and antelope. Rooms include LED TVs, refrigerators, safes, desks and private bathrooms with separate showers and deep soaking tubs. The property adds a cozy lobby fireplace, a library and options for village tours and elephant-orphanage visits.

Enjoy an outdoor pool, guided nature walks, sunset game drives, running and walking trails, and special wildlife experiences like the elephant orphanage visit. On-site services include babysitting/children’s playroom, wedding services, laundry and luggage storage, plus a roundtrip airport shuttle (surcharge) and free self-parking.

Conference space and three meeting rooms, backed by a business center and complimentary Wi‑Fi to keep teams connected.

Lilayi Restaurant serves African-fusion and local and international dishes with a garden-view bar and an extensive wine list. Room service is available during limited hours, and cooked-to-order breakfasts are served daily from 7:00–10:00.
