Matetsi Victoria Falls Location Map

Inspired by their spectacular location on the mighty Zambezi River in Zimbabwe, Matetsi Victoria Falls combines dramatic architectural design and luxurious interiors with the vibrancy of the Zimbabwean people. The result is an award-winning luxury nature retreat that offers the discerning traveller an unparalleled luxury safari experience.

Just 40 km upstream from the UNESCO World Heritage site of Victoria Falls - while the proximity to the largest waterfall in the world is a coup - it is just one of the many experiences offered here.  Set on 15 km of private Zambezi river frontage, your arrival at Matetsi Victoria Falls will signal a slow retreat into the senses with exclusive access to 55,000 hectares of Matetsi Private Game Reserve.

Experienced rangers and trackers will lead you on interpretive game-drives in open 4x4 safari vehicles across the reserve. Guests can enjoy sightings of massive herds of elephant and buffalo as well as the rare and majestic sable antelope. The reserve is also home to lion, spotted hyena, African wild dog and leopard. Matetsi is one of the very few areas in Zimbabwe where night game-drives are permitted, revealing a host of interesting nocturnal animals.

Set beneath the thick canopies of a vast riverine forest, the lodge comprises two intimate river-facing camps consisting of 9 suites each, of which two are family suites. Here generosity of space and absolute privacy are a given, with a bold sequence of architectural spaces and contemporary interiors defined by an earthy yet sophisticated mix of textured latte screens, contemporary blonde basketry, warm tactile wood and the lustre of copper. All suites are air-conditioned and come with sumptuous King-size four-poster beds, generous bathtubs, indoor and outdoor rain showers as well as a private plunge pool and deck. Each suite is perfectly appointed so as to capitalize on the lodge's private river frontage.

In addition, there is a 4 bedroomed exclusive-use villa, is perfect for families or groups travelling together. It has its own kitchen, indoor and outdoor dining areas, a veranda overlooking the Zambezi and a sparkling pool. It also comes with its own dedicated staff, including a chef, guide, private vehicle and a butler, ensuring a tailor-made stay unlike any other.
