We had a wonderful stay at Nguni Lodge for 2 nights. The place is beautiful and the lodge is very quiet. Rooms are spacious and I loved the warm water of the showers coming back after a long day. Staff always was ready to help. Breakfast was good. We 100% recommend this place.

The staff were super friendly and helpful. The Lodge itself was lovely, beautiful environment, lovely pool area. Rooms were spacious with full mosquito netting over the beds. Bathroom was a good size with a large walk in shower. Comfy lounge area to relax in and excellent breakfast provided. I would stay there again if in Victoria Falls.

Clean and co foerable. A but far from town.

A bit far from town but the room was great and staff perfect. Comfortable and clean. Great setting. The hotel does laundry for $10/bag and lets you run a tab for tours, taxi, and activities which makes booking tours much much easier. Would 110% recommend to others.

A rustic, clean, comfortable game lodge with 4 tents. The game rangers plus staff are all 5 star. And ni wifi, and no electricity brings everything back to real life in the bush.

Doug, 2-night trip

Jul 26, 2025

This is like having a private room in a hostel. VERY basic. Walls are paper thin. At night, I heard the conversations of guests in the next room. No phone in room to call the office staff. A chair in room, but no light near it to read. Bare light bulbs over night tables, so I couldn't read in bed either. No bottled water available. They say the tap water is filtered, but I wasn't comfortable drinking it. No curtain in shower area and no shelf, table, or sink top to place toiletry items in bathroom. No tissues provided. 3 hangars on a bar to hang clothes. Breakfast food is minimum. The worst part is that you have to take taxis to go anywhere outside the lodge. Each taxi cost $10. That adds up. Better to spend a little more for a room at a lodge that has free taxi service into town.

The blinds on the window were broken, letting in outside light, making it uncomfortable to sleep. The front door is made of glass, so everyone can see inside, and you have to cover it with a curtain every time, which is inconvenient.

Great property and super nice service. The breakfast was good. They helped coordinate our taxis and our excursions. Was a little noisy at the neighboring properties on Friday and Saturday night. The roof doesn’t deaden the sound that much

Lodge was clean and kept well. The staff was great and were super friendly. It was close to the local attractions and they arranged transportation for us. That turned out to be super helpful.
