A nice quiet location close to but at the same time removed from the township of Victoria Falls. All of the staff were friendly and helpful. A home away from home. Would happily visit again

This property is a gem. It is quiet with its own private game reserve and a watering hole in front of you. Well visited by animals! The bird life is outstanding. We awoke at sunrise to the most lovely birdsong and the resident troop of baboons kept us entertained. Milly and her staff were outstanding, attentive, kind and so helpful. The perfect host for a vacation of a life time. We will be back with the whole family! Thank you Milly 🤗🤗

We (my wife and I), had a great stay at Ursula’s (surrounded by bush some 15km from the town of Victoria Falls). The staff was super helpful, efficient and friendly. The setting is great, with a water hole in near but safe proximity to each two-bed unit (electric fenced for the safety of guests and staff alike). To top it all, Ursula’s is good value for money. Transport arrangements by the staff was spot-on for our day excursions and our back-and-forth trips to the airport. No car rental was necessary. The few kilometers travel from the main tar road into tne bush, was a nice reminder that we were away from the town centre yet close enough to the falls etc. Street vendors and high pressure for a sale was bothersome to us; we feel for vendors’ need to make a buck, but they tend to be to close for comfort.

The staff are exceptional people. Willing to assist and attentive. Special mention has to be made of Olivia whom I regarded as our Entertainment Manager and Michael who was our Game Drive Guide. After only 3 days we felt sad when leaving.
