    As youngsters, we absolutely loved the fantastic location right on the Zambezi river. the bar/restaurant had amazing views and a lively atmosphere. the staff were very helpful and encouraged us to try new activities on the river. the family room was spacious with high-quality bed linen, and we enjoyed helping ourselves to tea and coffee after our meals.

    We felt immediately at home and had no complaints whatsoever.

    The location of the hotel on the river was breathtaking, perfect for a romantic escape. We loved sitting at the bar and watching the water flow by. The staff was friendly and very helpful, always willing to assist us. The breakfast buffet was delicious with plenty of options to choose from. Plus, the high-quality bed linen made our stay extra comfortable.

    There was no room service available, especially when we wanted to enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning. Additionally, we found it frustrating that the bill was not explained to us when we were in a hurry to get to the airport.

    The Victoria Falls Waterfront was definitely worth the money - great value overall! The room was clean and comfortable, with soft and high-quality bed linens. The location was fantastic, right on the Zambezi river, providing beautiful views while enjoying a drink at the bar. The staff were incredibly friendly, helpful, and made us feel welcome throughout our stay.

    The morning meal could have been improved by offering a wider variety of options.

    The mix of people at the lodge was great, like a little United Nations. The pools and gardens were lovely, and the restaurant/bar on the deck had a stunning view. I also enjoyed the activities offered by Safari Par Excellence. The massage at David Livingstone Hotel & Spa was heavenly.

    Dead mosquitoes in the room, but hey, who needs mosquito nets anyway?

    Great lodges with comfortable beds and stunning views of the river. Helpful staff and delicious breakfast. Connected to a sister hotel with fine dining and cocktails, definitely recommend trying the mango daiquiri.

    The property could use some renovation and there were occasional wifi and air conditioning cuts due to issues in the country. the service was average, and settling the bill required some effort.

    Friendly and efficient staff who went above and beyond to help retrieve a forgotten wallet. Beautiful location on the banks of the Zambezi River with stunning sunsets. Convenient access to a variety of activities such as rafting, cruises, and game drives. Nice restaurant with delicious food made from quality ingredients. Well-maintained gardens and clean swimming pools. Good value compared to other nearby properties, considering the generally expensive prices in the area. Solid and comfortable amenities, particularly the bathrooms. Perfect place to stay on a tight budget with great treatment and breakfast included. Warm and welcoming staff who make every effort to ensure a comfortable stay. Superb location and views of the Zambezi River. Relaxed and unpretentious atmosphere with accommodation choices for everyone.

    The location of this hotel is absolutely breathtaking, with beautiful views of the river and stunning sunsets. the rooms are spacious and comfortable, with air conditioning to keep you cool. the staff here are incredibly friendly and helpful, providing excellent service throughout your stay. the restaurant offers delicious meals at reasonable prices, including mouthwatering pizzas.

    There are no nets on the chalet windows to keep mosquitoes out, which can be a bit inconvenient.

    I stayed in one of the tents, which was very comfortable and provided a great sleeping experience. The location on the waterfront was perfect for relaxation and enjoying the beautiful scenery. The staff at the Victoria Falls Waterfront were extremely helpful and friendly, ensuring that I felt safe and welcome throughout my stay. Despite a few power failures, which were quickly resolved by generators, I had a seamless experience with all the transfers, tours, and pick-ups arranged by the activity center. I had a fantastic time and would highly recommend this hotel for its excellent service and amazing location.

    The location is mind-blowing, with jaw-dropping sunset views of the Zambezi. The staff is super helpful and goes above and beyond to make you comfortable. The bartenders are generous and the pizzas from the authentic pizza oven are absolutely delicious. The value for money is terrific, especially when staying in the tents. The photos really don't do the place justice, as it's much more magical and greener in person. The shower and bathroom facilities are nice and clean. Free shuttles to the Falls and a complimentary breakfast make for an amazing experience. Can't wait to come back!

    There were some drawbacks to our experience. the facilities were outdated and could use some renovation.

    I had the most incredible time at a great modest place for adventure lovers! The Adventure Village rooms were small but clean and had everything I needed. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the hotel grounds were beautiful. I especially enjoyed the view of the Zambezi River from the bar/restaurant patio. The activities and transportation provided by Saf Par were convenient. And, let me tell you, the sunset cruise on the My Makumbi with bartender Godfrey was an absolute highlight! I highly recommend this hotel for adventure seekers like myself.

    The staff were absolutely amazing, super friendly, and incredibly helpful. The morning breakfast was fresh and delicious, and we also loved the great food at the restaurant. The beds were so comfortable, ensuring a restful night's sleep. The location was fantastic, right by the water with stunning views. The tents, though basic, felt like a cozy home away from home. The well-stocked bar had affordable prices. We loved having a private pool, and the beds were clean and comfortable. The staff was always ready to assist with anything we needed. we highly recommend this hotel for its bargain prices, awesome views, and the chance to have a unique African adventure with added resort-style conveniences!
