Lodge

Insika Lodge

Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe

Overview

Insika Lodge is a peaceful retreat set beside woodland near Zambezi National Park, which suits families and couples who prefer a quiet stay away from the busy town centre. The property sits at 1740 Parkway Drive and takes its name from the isiNdebele word for pillar, which references the famous column of spray rising from Victoria Falls. While the setting feels secluded, you can reach the shops and the waterfall using the lodge shuttle. The design places the large en suite rooms in small clusters, and raised wooden walkways connect these groups to the main building. Guests mention the modern room fittings, decks and double showers. The main lodge provides plenty of space to relax, featuring a bar, an art space, outdoor decks, and a fire pit for the evenings. The kitchen team prepares meals on site to serve in the dining room, and you will also find a swimming pool, a spa, and a sauna to enjoy after a day of exploring. The staff run a shuttle to town and the Falls, and they can arrange your airport transfers as well. The property opened in early 2023. Guest accounts mention about twenty rooms, and we will confirm the exact number when you enquire.
