Our Yellow Zebra Opinion
-
Great value for quality
A large and well-run property situated just outside town and straddling the boundary between town hotel and safari lodge. Very pleasant main area, where you can enjoy a drink and swim while watching the comings and goings of animals at the waterhole below. The lodge also offers a popular cultural show and dinner, which can come across as a bit contrived, but it is worth a try for a fun evening.

Watersports include canoeing and white water rafting. Adventurous types relish opportunities to go bungee jumping and gorge swinging. There are also sunset cruises, and helicopter flights over the Falls.
Safari activities from the lodge consist of guided walks, nature trails, hide sits, elephant interactions and walking with lions.
Every day, a complimentary shuttle bus transports guests to the Victoria Falls Rainforest.
It is also possible to enjoy a traditional meal at The Boma, the famous eatery providing authentic Zimbabwean cuisine and live entertainment each night.
Finally, guests are invited to the ‘Vulture Culture Experience’, a conservation exercise that takes place below Buffalo Bar’s deck – highly recommended!
*This property is unfenced and located in a wildlife area, so large and potentially dangerous animals do pass through. If you opt to stay here, always be alert when walking around the camp and request for a member of staff to escort you if you have any concerns. Any guest is escorted after dark as a matter of course.

The main lodge consists of a three-storey wood-and-thatch structure, in the style of a safari lodge but on a much larger scale! This houses the split-level MaKuwa-Kuwa Restaurant, offering à la carte cuisine and spectacular views over the park.
On a lower level, there is the open-plan Buffalo Bar, which has its own deck for guests to view game at the waterhole. Other facilities comprise a comfortable television lounge, internet café, library and curio/gift shop. The swimming pool has its own deck too, and a snack menu and bar service is available here.
* Please be aware that the children’s pool is close to the deep end of the adult pool, so young families should take extra care.*
