Detailed Reviews
Exceptional service , we actually got the value of our money, lt’s the best when it comes to rooms and service, they have nice well clean rooms.
The only challenge is the menu, they don’t have variety of foods. We stayed for 3 nights the best services, and the stuff is very nice. They just need to work on their menu.
Perfect location, a lot of elephants on their gate, you can view game for free. Close to the lake and town. Next time l visit, kariba l will definitely stay at tamarind over and over again.

I'd have given this place five stars were the rooms that we stayed in bigger. Its a beautiful, well maintained facility with wonderful gardens, play area for kids and a beautiful swimming pool. The rooms we stayed were all fairly new and in mint condition. We had no complaints there. The downside is the rooms are quite small. in particular the hotel rooms also dont block the outside noise. From our upstairs room we could hear the conversation of the people at the reception.
The place also has good self catering facilities. The rooms too are pretty small. This however takes nothing away from the place. I highly recommend.

This was a great venue for business conferences.
Small but comfortable rooms. The grounds were perfect
The food and wine selection on offer could have been better.
Seemed like the best time to visit Kariba as the weather was just perfect.

The Lodge is located about 10km away from Kariba town and offers decent self catering accommodation. Meals are available on request however we found the prices to be a bit on the high side.
The rooms were comfortable and all had air conditioner units which is a must for those hot Kariba nights.
The pool was very clean and there is also a baby pool.
The staff was very friendly and always available 24 hours.
The lodge however does not have an onsite bar therefore it is recommended that one brings their own refreshments.
