Insika Lodge

Insika Lodge was a stunning property to stay at. The grounds are beautiful and the rooms are incredibly comfortable and spacious. I actually preferred that the property wasn’t directly in the town of Victoria Falls as it was so peaceful and the baboons didn’t seem to be around like they were in town. The staff went above and beyond at every turn to accommodate requests. They helped us book several activities during our stay and the charges were just added to our room so only one payment was needed. I can not recommend this hotel enough- make sure to book the sunset cruise on their riverboat too! Wish I had stayed longer!

We had a delightful stay at Insika Lodge in Victoria Falls, a modern and comfortable retreat that opened in January 2023. The rooms were beautifully designed and spacious. The food was very good, with the highlight being the traditional African braai (BBQ) served on one of our three nights—a flavorful and memorable experience. The restaurant pricing was very reasonable. One area for improvement would be automatic refilling of bottled water in the room fridge, as this required a request but should be part of routine room service. The infinity pool was nice overlooking the surrounding woodland. Watching warthogs and their young grazing nearby and baboons on the area added to the charm. However, the pool’s early closing time was disappointing after long days exploring Victoria Falls. Extending the hours would enhance guest convenience. The staff were warm and eager to assist, though some were clearly new and gaining experience. Their friendliness compensated for minor hiccups. We appreciated the staff accommodating our late check-out request and that they offered to prepare an early breakfast for us on a day we were rafting the Zambezi and needed to leave before the restaurant opened. Something we greatly appreciated. A special mention goes to Macmillan, who arranged transport for us when the last shuttle into town (5 PM) had stopped—a service that could benefit from extended hours to provide an opportunity to experience fining dnd nightlife in Victoria Falls. Overall, Insika Lodge offers a fantastic blend of luxury, comfort, and attentive service. We highly recommend it for anyone visiting Victoria Falls!

What a fantastic hotel. My wife and I stayed for 4 nights and it was amazing. Due to some issues with their systems, we weren't able to pay the deposit from outside the country, so I was a little worried about the booking, however they arranged for a pick-up at the airport (shout out to Clever the taxi driver!) and sorted out the payment upon arrival with no issues. We had one of their "Signature" room which was beautiful, with a balcony over looking a wild area where we saw warthogs, mongooses (or is that mongeese?) and countless birds. The food was great, although I think they could do with a bit more variety. Beers (try Zambezi lager) and cocktails round the pools were in constant supply. Nothing is too much trouble and they even arranged a sunset cruise on the Zambezi for us which was one of the highlights of the trip! Go there - you won't be disappointed!!

The property in beautiful and well laid out specially good for us seniors as it is all on one level. We really appreciated the extra touches for my husbands birthday celebration. The staff and service were outstanding. Thank you for making our first trip to Vic Falls so memorable.
