This is a lovely lodge close to Victoria Falls. I wasn't sure about a good location in VFalls but this is fine. You can easily get transportation to all events. The room was comfortable and clean with mosquito nets. Great water pressure and hot water. Fans and air conditioning although the city power did go out for a bit. Bridget was very responsive and helpful in making reservations for us for events and transportation. Secure location. Small but nice pool. Breakfast was good; dinner was not quite as good but adequate. Very nice people in the restaurant.

Peaceful and quiet with staff so helpful with activity bookings. The rooms were very comfortable and decorated with local African artwork. Breakfast was superb, as were lunches and staff so friendly. Felt like a guest in someone’s home with only 14 rooms. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Victoria Falls!

This a small property with incredible charm and hospitality. Breakfast is always excellent with a wide variety of options on the menu. They also offer lunch and dinner with great choices. The pool is small but refreshing in a quiet and calming setting. The staff are very friendly with great recommendations on local restaurants, transportation, and activities.

Great property and super nice service. The breakfast was good. They helped coordinate our taxis and our excursions. Was a little noisy at the neighboring properties on Friday and Saturday night. The roof doesn’t deaden the sound that much

This is like having a private room in a hostel. VERY basic. Walls are paper thin. At night, I heard the conversations of guests in the next room. No phone in room to call the office staff. A chair in room, but no light near it to read. Bare light bulbs over night tables, so I couldn't read in bed either. No bottled water available. They say the tap water is filtered, but I wasn't comfortable drinking it. No curtain in shower area and no shelf, table, or sink top to place toiletry items in bathroom. No tissues provided. 3 hangars on a bar to hang clothes. Breakfast food is minimum. The worst part is that you have to take taxis to go anywhere outside the lodge. Each taxi cost $10. That adds up. Better to spend a little more for a room at a lodge that has free taxi service into town.
