The Pods

Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe

Overview

Taking their name from the seed pods of the Zambezi teak trees found on the grounds, The Pods offer individual small houses at 760 Aerodrome just a brief distance from the waterfall. These retreats are ideal if you want your own space close to the action. Inside your house you will find a bedroom with an en-suite bathroom alongside an open-plan lounge and kitchen area. Step outside and you have a private walled courtyard complete with covered seating where you can relax in peace. You also have access to a shared swimming pool, and the stay includes housekeeping, Wi-Fi, parking, security, and a concierge to help you plan your days. You can choose to cook for yourself or book a bed and breakfast option. If you opt for breakfast, the staff will organise a transfer to either The Lookout Café or Baines Restaurant because meals are not served at the houses. Note that the management team here is the same group responsible for Miombo Mews, and you should be aware that this location has no connection to a property in Cape Town with a similar name.
