Set majestically high on a plateau that forms a natural boundary to the unfenced Zambezi National Park, this westward facing lodge is just 4 kilometres from the thundering Victoria Falls. Enjoying uninterrupted views of spectacular African sunsets and with game sightings all year round at its on-site waterhole, the lodge is ideally positioned to offer the most discerning travellers a taste of Africa at its best. It is an ideal base for the Victoria Falls Rainforest itself and the many nearby attractions, offering guests a complimentary shuttle service to one of the true natural wonders of the world. All rooms boast the highest level of sophistication and comfort and each has its own balcony overlooking the national park, whilst most look onto the natural waterhole which provides excellent game and bird viewing opportunities throughout the day.
