Highlights

Our Thoughts

Not within walking distance of the Falls but served by a complimentary shuttle. The hotel is particularly good for families, and in addition to the family suites, the self-catering Lokuthula units are also great. The new addition, the Victoria Falls Safari Club, operates separately as a private club.

The Victoria Falls Safari Lodge resort boasts two restaurants, two bars and two conference rooms. A complimentary shuttle service transports guests to the Victoria Falls and town centre.  The lodge’s swimming pool overlooks a central waterhole whilst a guest library, TV Lounge, Internet Café, Activities Desk, Curio Shop and 24-hour Reception Desk are all located in the central block of Victoria Falls Safari Lodge.  Victoria Falls Safari Club guests enjoy complimentary WiFi access.  

2 Restaurants

MaKuwa-Kuwa Restaurant - Split level with a dramatic view of the unfenced Zambezi National Park, and focusing on a central waterhole attracting wildlife year-round, this a la carte restaurant offers a wide variety of internationally styled cuisine, with a touch of African and game dishes. Diners are tempted by gourmet dishes made from the choicest selection of local and imported ingredients, all complemented by a fine wine list. Little wonder then that this restaurant ranks as one of Zimbabwe’s top restaurants.

The Boma – Place of Eating - Described as an unforgettable African experience infused with mouth-watering local cuisine, spirited dance performances and traditional storytelling, The Boma – Place of Eating has over the years firmly established itself as a Victoria Falls highlight.
