Awesome view of the busy water hole from restuarant, bar and pool area. Rooms are comfortable and well appointed. Food and service is 5 star. In fact the restaurant has been voted the best in Victoria Falls for the past two years!!!.Bus service to town and the Falls is prompt and FREE. Highly recommend this wonderful establishment. More

The grand entrance to this hotel is very imposing when viewed from the ground, take a few stairs up to the library on the top level (a locked bookshelf with some old left behind novels and a saggy old sofa) and you can see this hotel is in need of a good renovation,from above the wooden beams and trusses and...

We stayed here at the end of a safari. Appreciated the water hole and the nice decks to view the storks and other birds and animals. A good shuttle to town for shopping. The public areas are very nicely done with high ceilings and african decor. Would recommend the hotel. More

We stayed at the V.F. Safari lodge mid April it was our first trip to Africa (apart from Egypt) The hotel has a fantastic location and we saw lots of wild life especially the feeding of the birds at 1pm. Our sunset cruise was great but we were not too happy with our BOMA experience as it was very very... More

This is a comfortable hotel well-located within a short distance from Victoria Falls. The rooms are rustic in style with an African ambience. The over-all service is average but the restaurant is good. More

We really enjoyed our two night at this hotel. The room was very well decorated, with 11/2 baths, living room, balcony, mini bar and king bed. The hotel staff is friendly and service very good. They received us with a cool beverage at the lobby. More

It's hard to believe that you're in Zimbabwe at this hotel until you sit on the patio and see the animals approaching the water hole. The staff is very friendly and the rooms are comfortable and clean. Food and drink prices are similar to US ($8 mojitos), so it isn't the most economical place in Zimbabwe, but the views are... More

We really enjoyed our 2 nights at this hotel. We were amazed by the view of the waterhole with all the animals coming and going. The lodge itself is rustically beautiful, all set out so that you can see the waterhole from wherever you are (room, bar, restaurant, pool). We had a second floor room and loved the high ceiling,...
