Located within walking distance to the Victoria Falls, at the end of the main street. Built on three levels, it takes a bit of time to work out the best way to your room.
The team at Mbano could not be nicer and their “story” is even better. We would highly recommend! The property is beautiful and the villa we had was spacious and comfortable!
This is such a gem of a place! Loved loved loved it. The rooms are so spacious and such beautiful touches all around. The design of the rooms shouts luxury!

Do not miss this place. The staff are the best in the region! Hands down. They make the experience. Rooms are fabulous and food was even better.
Our hosts Tanishe and Gloria were top notch.
Thank you to everyone at the Elephant Camp who made our stay so memorable. Being able to hand feed the elephants is an experience my family and I will never forget.
I had the pleasure of staying in Elephant Camp in October 2025 for 2 nights. The service was exceptional.
The apartments is spacious and beautiful.
Alongside that, Tawanda is a great super friendly driver who drove us across town while we were visiting the Victoria Falls.
Miombo Mews is a delightful place to Stay in Victoria Falls.
We had a wonderful stay at the holiday apartments. The place is very nice, clean, and comfortable, with the added peace of mind of 24-hour security.
I’d say this has been a perfect serendipity for me! The outdoors, the rooms, the amenities, the hospitality and not to mention the added advantage of access!
Beautiful hotel. Rooms are fine. Food lovely especially the breakfasts. Zebra, impala and giraffe in the hotel grounds! Easy walk to Victoria Falls which are spectacular.
We had an amazing stay in April. The most spectacular experience was the zebras roaming the grounds! The rooms were clean and the linens excellent. The breakfast buffet was very good and included.
The service is exceptional! I have stayed at 10+ countries and in 5 star hotels, and the service workers here are by far the best, the friendliest and most understanding.
We had a really pleasant stay at Victoria Falls Rainbow Hotel. The location is a big plus, it’s close to town, easy to get around, and transport is simple to organise.
The rooms were lovely with an en suite bathroom, working aircon, a TV with a few TV channels, a mosquito net to protect from bites in the evenings as well as a safe to keep your items safe.
Absolutely loved it here. Unfortunately we only stayed for two nights but they were memorable for all the right reasons.
We stayed at Pioneers as part of a tour package. The tours kept us pretty busy, but we wish we could have stayed extra days just to enjoy this place. It is absolutely gorgeous.
What a wonderful place. Beautiful reception and common areas. Room is clean and well equipped.

Hotel booked 2 times today.
We were travelling in a group and we had an excellent time here. Their hospitality and going the extra mile and Kudu who especially made aloo paratha for us was top notch!
The place was very luxurious and the service was nice. Dinner was great and the food was good.
We had a lovely stay at this hotel. If you are looking for a perfectly clean, friendly, and authentic experience rather than a fancy luxury resort, this is the place for you!
Our stay at Masuwe Lodge was truly memorable and such a special experience. We only stayed 2 nights but would have loved to have stayed longer.
A hidden gem… unparalleled serenity. The staff treat you like royalty and family at the same time. Cant recommend enough.
We had the most incredible stay at Masuwe Lodge, it truly exceeded all expectations! From the moment we arrived, Cas and his amazing team went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect.
I haven’t been to a game reserve since Covid. Coming to Chundu Island Zimbabwe was the best getaway I had in a long time. So good to be back where my roots belongs. Highly recommend.
We spent another delightful 4 days at Chundu Island, this being our second trip there. The lodge itself is situated in a lovely, peaceful spot on the Zambezi River, south of VIctoria Falls.
This is a fantastic property to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of city life and enjoy specular river views and the occasional visit from a four-legged creature.
What an incredible experience! This hotel is truly exceptional in every way. The food is absolutely amazing—every meal was delicious, fresh, and beautifully prepared.
We had an amazing time at Shongwe Oasis. From the moment we arrived service has been impeccable.
Room perfect. Very luxury, clean and comfortable. Big bath tub and rain shower and privacy windows.
Excellent!
I love the spacious room, giant bathtub, confortable bed and quality products.
Luxurious garden with a pool and a jacuzzi!
Breakfast was great, many options and food portions.
Amazing Experience!
Our 4 night stay at Shearwater with our Oat Travel Group was amazing.
We were welcomed like family upon arrival and the treatment like family was there throughout our stay.
The Explorers Village was fantastic. The staff are friendly and efficient without being overly formal.
Incredible staff who make you feel incredibly welcome. Sharon went above and beyond to make us comfortable. Rooms were very pretty and a nice size and bathroom was comfortable with a good shower.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Lokuthula Lodge in Victoria Falls. Our two-bedroom chalet, complete with a kitchen, provided plenty of space and was well suited to a comfortable and relaxing stay.
I stayed in one of the self-catering lodges at Lokuthula and it was absolutely beautiful. The lodge is quirky in all the right ways: I loved the thatch and how cool the house was.
We stayed in two cottages (duplex style) for five days — great experience for our group.
An incredible place to stay, especially if you want to see animals up close! The staff are absolutely amazing and make you feel so welcome. The bar area is fantastic and the breakfast was excellent.
I had the most amazing stay in Drift Inn — this lodge is simply beautiful! Staff is warm and welcoming. Their help was indispensable to make my trip to Victoria Falls as memorable as it was.

Enjoyed my stay here. Staff is really kind, the security guards literally won’t let you leave without smiling!
What a lovely experience we had staying with Vic Falls Backpackers Lodge. The staff went out of their way to help us book a few activities on arrival.
I always stay at the Backpackers with Mari’s good service always, she remembers my name. The tents had a very nice sitting area especially at night.
100% happy with our choice of hotel for us. The genuine friendliness of the staff, that easily go out their way for you.
Very nice hotel located right on the river which makes it a very peaceful location.
This was a fantastic stay. Amazing staff very helpful. Good breakfast. We stayed for 6 nights the only issue was that we booked a river facing room. Was put in a room right in the back of the resort.
I have never experienced such a unique and beautiful property. Islands of Siankaba is far more than just a place to stay, it is a complete experience from start to finish.
My husband and I had an exceptional gateway at this property, smooth check in, delicious food and great customer service.
I can’t say enough good things about my stay at Tintswalo Siankaba — it was pure magic from start to finish.
The staff were polite and helpful. The bed was comfortable and room was clean. But on the 2nd day, I noticed spiders in my room and asked the cleaning staff for bug spray.
This was 1 of the best Lodges I have been to in my whole life we really enjoyed everything… everything was 5star especially the Service and location… will be going back this December already booked.
The room was average, but the bathroom was so tight that it was an effort to get in and out. The staff and location are very good, though.
This is where I stayed when I was on my mission trip in Zimbabwe. The owners are some of the nicest, genuine people I have ever met. They even gave me my own bongos!
It’s mesmerising to see the fall with 1.7 kms width and 100 meters fall. I was on the Zimbabwe side and it’s a beauty. Wish I were on the other side to have a plunge in the pool.
If you want to stay in a quiet place with the opportunity to have a good walking and being away of the city, the place is great.
