This upscale luxury lodge enjoys a prime elevated position of the shores on the huge Lake Kariba, one of the largest man made lakes in the world. The first thing that happens when you walk past the lobby and onto the infinity pool and garden area is to pick up your jaw from the floor, and take in the stunning panoramic views over the lake and watch the elephants, hippos and buffalo wading in and out of the water along the shoreline.
The instagram worthy infinity pool overlooking the lake is the perfect place to spend a few hours in between the morning and afternoon safaris either chilling poolside below the shady trees or in the pool, gazing over the endless horizon. The dining area and the huge gorgeous viewing deck and boma area right below the pool offer up the same drool worthy views.
A short walk thru the beautifully landscaped paths brings you to your luxury suite, which is very spacious and has a viewing deck with endless sublime views of the shoreline, the lake and the horizon.
The property offers some epic game drives (we loved the night safaris) but the pièce de résistance are the water safaris on the lake. We took two water safaris, one in a speedboat, during which we went fishing and caught tons of yummy Bream and ending with a surprise bespoke beach picnic on a remote pink sand beach on one of the islands, and another on a floating barge boat for sundowners ending in some of the most stunning African sunsets. During the water safaris we saw, among other animals, elephants, hippos, buffalo and crocodiles along with myriad birds.
The food is home style cooking and the chef cooked the Bream fish we caught during our speedboat water safari and the service is warm and personalized. While the safaris are great the real draw here is the location and stunning views of the lake landscape and the water based activities on the lake. Its a perfect place to spend a few nights relaxing at the end of a safari tour of Zimbabwe. The Luxe Voyager
