Good little stopover

Good place for a short stay - esp when getting to Blantyre airport in the morning. If doing that then book the taxi through the hotel - it's cheaper than Uber - about £25 GBP one way. Food was pretty good and room was comfortable enough - and though no AC in room - just a fan - it wasn't so hot at the time I was there - so not a major problem. Staff friendly and helpful. Good value for teh price. I will be staying there again, no doubt.

Decent place to stay for a night or two

Villa 33 is a basic, clean and friendly place. Nothing fancy, but a good place to stay for a few nights.

Good value

No a/c, but fan in room. Power and therefore wifi and tv intermittent. Breakfast included and quite good. Dinner was also good, but beer not chilled enough for my tastes. Lunch was very limited and very basic. Ice cream was surprisingly good. Nice and helpful staff. Quiet and seems secure. Half hour+ from airport. I'd stay there again.

Wonderful Visit at Villa 33!

I was originally only going to stay 1 night at Villa 33 but enjoyed it so much I ended up staying 6 nights in total. Zane, the owner, was extremely helpful with information about Blantyre and surrounding areas. As a local he is very familiar with the area and is well connected with people in the community. The other staff members were friendly and very welcoming too. I was travelling alone and found Villa 33 refreshing in terms of the friendliness of the staff and the other patrons. It was a lovely place to stay. The room I stayed in was huge! It was clean, comfortable and very nice to stay in. The location of Villa 33 was very nice. It was close enough to walk to Blantyre city if I wanted, (or you could take a very quick minibus that would stop right outside the gates of Villa 33), but far enough out of Blantyre city to be an area that felt relaxing and less hectic…kind of the best of both worlds.
