Lake Safari Lodge

“Solides Hotel an super Lage”

The location is great, the room is large with a big balcony overlooking the lake, and the garden is lovely. However, the place feels a bit worn, the pools are crowded with day guests playing loud music and leaving trash, the staff never intervene, and the breakfast buffet is very bland.

“Despite these shortcomings, Lake Safari Lodge remains a wonderful destination. The stunning views, lovely atmosphere, de”

Lake Safari Lodge – Beautiful Views, Friendly Staff, ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lake Safari Lodge is an absolutely beautiful place, with breathtaking views and a peaceful, relaxing atmosphere. The staff are warm, welcoming and very friendly, making guests feel at home. The evening buffet was fantastic, with a lovely selection of food that we thoroughly enjoyed . The stunning views, lovely atmosphere, delicious evening buffet and exceptional hospitality make it a place worth visiting. However, the rooms need some attention and a much‑needed makeover. The towels are no longer as white and fresh‑looking as they should be, and the bathrooms require improvement. There was an unpleasant smell coming from the toilet, leaving in air freshener will help the ardour which meant keeping the window open at all times. We also noticed mould in some areas of the bathroom, while the walls could do with a fresh coat of paint. Another disappointment was the lack of basic room amenities. There was no telephone, iron or ironing board provided in the room. These are simple facilities that would make a significant difference to guests’ comfort and convenience. With some investment in room upgrades, improved bathroom maintenance and better guest facilities, this lodge could be truly outstanding. Overall, a beautiful place with amazing potential. I would happily return, but I sincerely hope management takes these observations on board.

Great scenery, lovely peace and quiet. Great staff and great gym. Especially the gym! The gym also has a breathtaking view!. Renovations and expansion are on going. So has a construction site feel. Am sure they will be done soon and it will be amazing again

“Great views, rooms need an upgrade!”

The location is amazing. They have well tended gardens and outdoor areas where you can enjoy the lake views. The rooms are near the lake so you hear the waves as you sleep. Good gym and pool facilities too. Breakfast was good as well and staff were friendly and helpful. Unfortunately the room itself is not worth the price charged. It lacks many amenities in the bathroom. 1. The bathroom itself needs to be redone because it is not the standard for a hotel of this caliber. 2. Bottled water is only provided on the first day of your stay. For the rest of the stay you have to buy water. Siavonga is a hot location so this is very strange. First time I have stayed anywhere where water isn’t complementary. 3. Sockets are not situated in areas where it’s easy to reach devices. The lamp sockets for example are behind the headboard. 4. The rooms have large glass doors which are great for the views but terrible for privacy. They can add a privacy tint so that you don’t have to close the curtains when sitting in the room during the day. You still get to see the view but people outside the room don’t see you. 5. Overhead Fan wasn’t working. 6. The mirror that was there was removed and never replaced. Bathroom mirror needs replacing. Overall for this price, I was disappointed by the state of the room. The view compensated to a small extent

“More of a conference hotel, very basic accommodation”

A great location with chalets overlooking Lake Kariba. The gardens are well maintained & very pretty. Staff are friendly & the food choices were good. The pool & restaurant area are pleasant. We would not return to this hotel and would stay next time across the bay in Kariba Inns which was superb!. The rooms are very basic with need of upgrading - broken old furniture, lamps that are faulty, sliding doors that don’t appear that secure. The bathrooms were the biggest disappointment with a glitter green sink, cracked & stained toilet & poor shower that leaked and barely worked, broken & chipped tiles. We felt little investment is being made towards the accommodation but a lot of extra revenue is being spent towards conference facilities. Building work from 8am was noisy around the pool area as a large conference room & new kitchen are being erected which will apparently take 2 more years!! Lots of conference people around the facilities, enjoying a buffet lunch, so we felt a little out of place playing in the pool in swimwear. Sadly there aren’t fishing facilities to hire equipment & they were unable to recommend anywhere local. Prices for boat tours were expensive & disappointing as boats were moored up doing nothing!
