Please note: Our review of this property has not yet been added. Watch this space. We're working on it.

As a tailor-made tour operator, we often have to get creative when designing your perfect itinerary.

For example, your travel consultant might add this property to your itinerary if:

Location is a significant factor
It offers a unique feature that will enhance your experience
This is a last-minute booking and room availability is limited
Cost is a factor and you'd rather splash out on another part of your trip
This is a newly opened or refurbished property that we have not inspected yet

When designing your custom itinerary we have much to consider not least of which is the value proposition of every product and service included in your quote. In all cases we strive to give you the best experience possible within your budget so please feel free to ask your travel consultant to share their reasons for including this property in your itinerary.

Located 19km inside the Zambezi National Park, this beautifully built solar-powered lodge offers easy access to the thunderous wonder that is Victoria Falls, while at the same time being hidden away from the main tourist trail.

The sandy shores of the Zambezi River set the scene for a ‘barefoot luxury’ stay, with a sand floor bar, a cooling swimming pool and pool lounge, and various outdoor and indoor dining areas. The design harmoniously combines thatched roofs in the main areas with canvas roofs, stone walls, and wooden decking floors in the 5 tented suites. Each riverside suite has a shaded private veranda, and an outdoor bathtub and shower, with decking out front leading down to the Zambezi River. The 2 Family Suites comprise 2 large canvas suites each, with a central lounge area between 2 ensuite bedrooms.

The reserve boasts some of the highest concentration of lion per square km of any Zimbabwean park, with the river attracting huge crocs and hippos. You can make the most of the beautiful surroundings with a picnic breakfast or lunch in the bush – after a game drive, enjoy a soothing in-room massage, or relax in one of the hammocks in the bar with a good book.
