We liked the place, but the room was small. The dining room is good with many options on the menu. We also found the Three Monkeys restaurant nearby pretty good.

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay here as we were within walking distance of the Victoria Falls Rainforest. The staff was kind and attentive, and the grounds were beautiful. Unfortunately our AirCon broke and dripped water on the bed but aside from that our stay was great. Would highly recommend!

The cottages are designed attractively to tourists with a good service and ideal location for Falls. However, Victoria Falls city has far too many street vendors chasing tourists around.
