Maramba River Lodge

“Tolle Lage am Fluss und Super Design”

The design is interesting and the location by the river is great, even with crocodiles. There is no shower in the room and no offers for the Victoria Falls.

“Völlig überteuert”

The hotel is outside Livingston, very quiet, and right by a small river that barely has water at this time of year; the chalets are spread out in the garden. We had many mosquitoes and a rat in the room, but fortunately we were moved to a cleaner and larger chalet for the second night after the manager saw photos of the rat and its mess. Breakfast is served on a large terrace overlooking the river, but the service is unreliable and only provides instant coffee.

“Awesome location, lovely staff. Felt right at home!”

The staff from reception to the restaurant were super friendly and helpful, always going out of their way to accommodate my requests and making me feel very welcome; the sunset river cruise organized by the lodge was amazing—highly recommend, better than the larger catamarans elsewhere—but mosquitoes kept entering my tent, so I had to spray every few hours and couldn't stay comfortably after spraying; the reception noted this and I trust management will close any gaps, and the tents are not soundproof, so noise depends on neighbors; I complained one night and a security guard kindly asked them to be quiet after midnight, giving me an 8.0/10.

The structure is beautiful inside the park along the long river; from the bar you can spot crocodiles, hippos, bushbuck, and many bird species, but the bar/restaurant service is a bit slow, so I rate it 8.0/10.

“Eerst even wennen in de (luxe) tent maar wel bijzondere ervaring tussen het wild.”

The view of the river with hippos, crocodiles, and especially the elephant visit during breakfast on the outdoor terrace was unforgettable. The tent had a lot of mosquitoes, no mosquito net over the bed, but we brought our own.
