LUXURY TENTED SUITES
Constructed of canvas, glass and wood, built on raised decks and sheltered by vast thatched roofs - the 13 Luxury Tented Suites are well spaced and air-conditioned. Extending onto a private deck with its own plunge pool, each boasts uninterrupted panoramas of the river and natural bush.
Stylish and spacious, the rooms are an interesting fusion of European and African décor with clean lines, soothing hues and a fresh, earthy feel. All offer a larger than king size bed, comfortable sitting area, open plan bathroom with twin vanities, freestanding bath and both indoor and outdoor showers. Twin bedded sleeping configurations are also possible.
5 of the canvas-under-thatch rooms are family-friendly and feature an adjoining children’s alcove – with a bunk bed and single (3/4 sized) bed – which can accommodate up to 3 sharing children (younger than 17 years) comfortably. Although the bathrooms are open plan and shared, curtains may be drawn across this – and the entrance to the children’s bedroom area – for added privacy.
Standard to each Luxury Tented Suite are mosquito nets, repellent, a mini bar, electronic laptop safe, tea/coffee making facilities, a hairdryer, ceiling fans, air-conditioners and international adapters, robes and slippers to help make your stay as pleasant and possible.
ISLAND TREEHOUSE SUITES
Set among the leafy tree tops of the private Kandahar Island, the elevated timber and glass structures of the Victoria Falls River Lodge Island Treehouse Suites blend seamlessly with the surrounding landscape.
Resting between Zambia and Zimbabwe - just upstream from the iconic Victoria Falls – the island is accessible by boat only, offering guests the ultimate experience of secluded serenity.
Each of the 5 luxuriously appointed Island Treehouse Suites boasts an en-suite bathroom with rain shower, freestanding soaking tub, private w/c and spacious vanity area. All are fully air-conditioned and have a comfortable sitting area and private deck with plunge pool - whereupon guests can sit back, relax and drink in the tranquil magnificence of their surrounds.
Raised walkways connect the Treehouse accommodations to open-plan, airy lounge, dining and bar areas.
One of the Island Treehouse Suites, the Starbed Treehouse, is double storey and features a rooftop sitting area and signature Starbed – with which it shares a name. With nothing but the open sky doubling as both a ceiling and roof, the upstairs bedroom adds a little bit of milky-way magic to the décor of the bedroom. The Starbed Treehouse boasts an en-suite bathroom, with twin rain showers and vanities, in addition to the all the luxury amenities offered by the standard Island Treehouse accommodation packages.
The combination of personal butler services, bird and wildlife viewing, fine dining, deluxe accommodations, and a significant variety of recreation opportunities (both onsite and in nearby historic town of Victoria Falls) completes an unforgettable stay.
