Directions

A restaurant and bar right on the M1, next to Karonga's district offices

Paradise Park sits directly on the M1 next to Karonga's District Council building, picking up trade from people in town for official business rather than tourism. It runs rooms alongside a restaurant and bar, serving an all-day menu from breakfast through dinner.

It's one of the more central options in Karonga for eating without traveling to the lakeshore lodges, close enough to the museum to walk. The building itself is unassuming from the road.

Good to know

Convenient if you have district-office business, it sits right next door on the M1.

The air conditioner was unusable for a while due to a power outage, and it finally became usable around 8 PM, but when I woke up in the morning, it had already stopped working. I understand that lighting and other electricity are supplied by solar power, so I wish they would provide a fan. It's quite cool at night, so not having air conditioning isn't a problem. While power outages are unavoidable, if they occur frequently, some kind of countermeasure, such as purchasing a generator, should be taken. Otherwise, the price should be lowered. It's a shame, because everything else, including the staff's response, was good.

This is truly a decent place to stay with good value for money. Really nice People and the room was clean. The whole country is dealing with power issues, you can hardly blame them for it.

The location is good, right on the main road, about one kilometer from the bus station. The room was fully equipped and clean. It claimed to have Wi-Fi and hot water, but the front desk didn't know the password, and the hot water was out of service.
