Down in the Sepik region, this time-warped mixture of
the primitive and modern is the perfect base for some old-fashioned
jungle, river and village exploration. You are in the middle of
Arambak country-- locals pole dug-out canoes, the drums throb, the
wild birds call, and, traditional village lifestyles continue
unchanged."Something like a National Geographic expedition. No roads. Thick jungle. Locals poling dugouts. Crocodiles. You wind up at the surprising Karawari Lodge. All kinds of comfort amidst a thousand miles of jungle." - Robin Kinhead, Chicago Tribune.
Malolo Plantation Lodge boasts a picturesque seaside
setting which looks out over the Bismark Sea with the active volcano
of KarKar on the horizon. Malolo Plantation Lodge is the size that
allows personalized service and the small touches that really count.
Dive or snorkel in some of the most pristine waters of the world, or
visit a traditional village as part of our extensive tour program.
Just under one hour's drive north of Madang, this redeveloped former coconut plantation boasts a relaxed South Pacific style with its extensive lawns and gardens reaching down to the waterfront.

We also operate scuba dive programs for beginner and experienced divers on magnificent clear coral reefs and shipwrecks from days gone by.
The ultimate 'floating lodge' for the adventurer who
desires all the comforts of civilization while traversing the
mysterious middle reaches of the mighty Sepik River.
