Systems and methods for memory management for virtual machines. An example method may comprise running, by a host computer system, a Level 0 hypervisor managing a Level 1 virtual machine running a Level 1 hypervisor which manages a Level 2 virtual machine. The Level 1 hypervisor may detecting execution of an operation that prevents modification to a set of entries in a Level 2 page table and generate a shadow page table where each shadow page table entry of the plurality of shadow page table entries maps a Level 2 guest virtual address of a Level 2 address space associated with the Level 2 virtual machine to a corresponding Level 1 guest physical address of a Level 1 address space associated with the Level 1 virtual machine. The Level 0 hypervisor may generate a Level 0 page table.
