One of my top-ten hotels anywhere in the world

Pros: African atmosphere and environment. Spectacularly comfortable room. Watching the animals at the water hole Friendly, helpful, and welcoming staff
Cons: The water was off for parts of two days due to unknown causes.
Location: The Vic Falls area has a wide range of activities on offer from sedate to adventurous. I spent 5 days and could have easily spent five more.
Fantastic hotel filled with handmade African furniture and arts in my room and in the public areas. African-style wooden buildings with every amenity, on the top of a hill in a jungle setting with thatched roofs. My room for one person included a three-story vaulted living room with bedroom on second level, two bathrooms, and private balcony. Bedroom, living room, and balcony along with hotel restaurant, bar and swimming pool ALL overlook a large watering hole in the valley below where animals come and go...more than 100 elephants showed up one afternoon during cocktail hour! The rooms are air conditioned and the public areas are open air providing an incredibly convivial environment with plenty of places to sit on several levels to meet people and watch the animals. The hotel provides a free shuttle every hour to the main destinations in the town and National Park. Wifi is free and unlimited. Service at the hotel was friendly and impeccable. A travel desk can book any of the many activities available in the Vic Falls area. My room was one of the most comfortable I have ever experienced anywhere in the world. It was in perfect, up-to-date condition...with sleek contemporary bathrooms and high-style fixtures. In the evening, staff turn down the bed and set the mosquito nets around the bed. Food was delicious with many options...fresh fish was offered every evening. Easily the most fun, entertaining place to stay in the Victoria Falls area! It is one of my top ten hotels.
