Life perched 180 metres above the Zambezi in Zimbabwe's most dramatic gorge setting.

Clinging to the edge of the Batoka Gorge, just a short drive from Victoria Falls, this brand-new ultra-luxury retreat manages to feel wonderfully remote. The name Bupenyu means 'life' in the local Nambya language, which seems rather fitting when you're gazing down at the Zambezi thundering 180 metres below your feet. Designed by Experience Architects with cantilevered forms that echo the engineering legacy of the historic railway bridge visible downriver, stone-clad passageways lead through miombo woodland to eleven cliffside suites and a two-bedroom villa. Each comes with floor-to-ceiling glass, gorge-facing plunge pools and a design ethos that celebrates rather than competes with the landscape. It's sophisticated, eco-conscious and opening in December 2025.

Waterfalls Lodge is Located in the heart of Victoria Falls, the newly unveiled Wild Horizons Waterfalls Lodge offers refined, accessible accommodation that brings comfort and nature together. This sophisticated retreat is designed to immerse guests in the beauty of the Falls with its waterfall-themed designs.

Just minutes from one of the world’s natural wonders as well as the city centre, the lodge provides access to adventure while offering a peaceful haven for relaxation.

Explore Zimbabwe’s Victoria Falls region from Zambezi Sands, an all-inclusive luxury tented camp nestled on the bank of the mighty Zambezi River offering complete privacy and luxury in untouched African surroundings. Enjoy breathtaking views of the river from your private lookout deck, or venture out of the tented camp and experience an unforgettable Africa on guided game drives and walks where thriving birdlife and game await.

The dilemma with Victoria Falls is a familiar one: do you want a safari, or do you want the falls? The answer, at this tented camp on the banks of the Masuwe River, is a firm both. Operated by Wild Horizons — the largest eco-tourism outfit in the area — the lodge sits within a 4,500-acre private wildlife sanctuary inside Victoria Falls National Park, where elephants, crocodiles and a reliable cast of other wildlife treat the riverbank as their own. The mist from Mosi-Oa-Tunya hangs on the skyline. The falls themselves are a twenty-minute transfer away. This is not a compromise between two experiences — it's a genuinely well-placed base for all of them, designed by Craig White with the same solar-powered, plastic-free sustainability credentials that run through Wild Horizons' other properties. The chitenge fabric cushion covers and handmade local touches give the whole place a warmth that the word "eco" doesn't always promise.

Just a stone's throw from Victoria Falls, Mbano Manor is the creation of Dr. Matifadza “Mati” Nyazema, a Zimbabwean hotelier, globetrotter, and force of nature. The hotel is a testament to her determination and vision, and the suites are beautiful, intimate and tranquil. The entire property was built with extraordinary care and attention (only two trees were removed during construction) and you'll wake up to the sounds of birdsong and rustling teak in the surrounding forests. TIME has even named it one of the World's Greatest Places to visit in 2025...
