What you'll love

The variety of different spaces all designed specifically for ultimate relaxation. Choose from the Lookout, the Hangout, the pool, or have dinner on the romantic Dining Deck.

Insiders tip

Try to squeeze in lunch on Tongabezi’s floating pontoon, during which your food is paddled to you by canoe. Talk about dining with a twist!

Something to think about

The Falls are around 45 minutes away by car so don’t expect to walk out of your door and be greeted by the spray.

The property

Tucked under a shady grove of trees, the heart of Tongabezi is the Tonga Lounge, a reading and dining haven with a casual cocktail bar and sumptuous river jetty. Next to this is the ultimate chill-out area, The Lookout which does exactly as its name suggests and offers fabulous views over the Zambezi from enormous sofas and leather armchairs on multiple levels.

The rooms

Accommodation is either in one of the riverside cottages, filled with handsome local furniture and giant wood and glass doors leading out to the vast decks, or in one of the five quirky houses. Individually designed, each is very different but whichever you choose you certainly won’t be disappointed; relax in your own private pool at the Nut House, retreat to the Dog House (hopefully for the right reasons!) or sink into the claw-footed bath at the Bird House.
