"Overall a lovely property with nice service people. The front desk and the ease of information could certainly be improved. The game drive was slated for 10 people max, and we were brought to the truck already full and asked to pile in. 14 people in the truck, this was my least favorite activity as although we saw some animals you can see much more in other places.
I was charged by Expedia for an extra person. The activities needed to be paid separately ($25 per adult and half for children)....

"The property was very clean overall. The staff at the restaurant and bar were very helpful and attentive. Food was very tasty. Rooms are a little outdated and sleeping under a net is a must due to some mosquitoes. Overall it was a good, quick stay for me."

"The host were great. We enjoyed the experience of observing the black eagle and learned a lot from Chris, who has years of experience with this particular pair. Chris and Debbie went out of their way to make my birthday special. We really loved our time here! This place comes HIGHLY RECOMMENDED "

"The staff was so friendly and thoughtful. They went out of their way to make sure our anniversary was incredible. The owners even can and had dinner with us the night we arrived. Ngasha was an incredible hostess/bartender, chef Kevin was amazing in the presentation and quality and taste of food, Fortune our guide was incredible and very intelligent and resourceful. Victor was excellent too. "

Insika Lodge is a wonderful vacation destination. Their pictures do not do it justice. We loved the room, service and staff. Their food is amazing and reasonably priced. The included breakfast menu is also fantastic. Loved everything about Insika. Was sad we only had 2 days there. If I ever return to Vic Falls, I will certainly book here again and for more days.

Great place to stay if you want to visit Victoria Falls. The food was great with several choices of restaurants. Excellent service. Shuttle departs and picks up on the hour through Victoria Falls.
I would highly recommend it

We loved our stay at the Courtney Palace. It was the perfect place for us to stay in Victoria Falls. The location was great. It is a walk to the falls, but we really enjoyed the walk through the city to visit the shops and see local life. In fact, we encountered baboons, warthogs and saw an elephant right in the city. The wildlife experience is really something else there!

Everything about this lodge was perfect. From the easiest check-in to the friendly and helpful staff to the roaming warthogs to the excellent and spacious suites, everything was perfect. Though our room was labeled a "suite", it was actually a three level roomy accommodation with a porch, a balcony, a tv room, and a living room, two bedrooms and two bathrooms.

Definitely the best hotel on Zimbabwe side of the Victoria Falls. The town itself is very small with only two streets. Hotel and town are safe with 0 crime. However, when you step out of confines of the hotel, you do encounter street hawkers. A firm no and continued walking would make them stop following you. The hotel has old colonial charm and a beautiful view to the bridge that connects Zimbabwe to Zambia. Some practical information:

Classic safari lodge with good design. Although updated in 2012, room comfort can be better. Great staff, always pleasant and attentive. Breakfast buffet is a treat. Being closer to national park and having gem of a watering hole allows many big animals to come there. Monkeys, baboons and Impala were always there but seeing Elephants and Girrafes while enjoying a drink was a treat

Great stay, friendly staff, good hotel taxi, comfortable beds. Bathrooms could do with a renovation to walk in showers considering the water situation in Bulawayo

From check in to check out, the staff at A'Zambezi went above and beyond to make my stay a pleasure. The grounds are relaxing and beautiful. The rooms are well equipped with wifi and great conveniences. The hotel is a bit outside of town, but the shuttle buses run promptly and get you where you want to go.

Rooms are airy and spacious with air conditioning and fast WiFi.
Monkeys coming into the rooms are a major problem, so it is impossible to go out on the balcony and enjoy the views.
Our room took 15 mins with the tap open to get water hot enough to have a shower. The bathroom is dated but spotlessly clean.
The staff are amazing and so helpful! The breakfast has everything + the accompanying views are stunning!
Free shuttles to town and the falls are a major help especially since...

We spent 3 nights at the Cresta Sprayview. From the warmth of the greeting from the driver who picked us up at the airport to the genuine friendliness we experienced from all staff during our stay we felt as if we were more than guests but rather part of an extended family! The facility is comfortable, the pool is lovely and the meals are delicious. A must do while there is the Batoka sunset cruise. It’s great value.
