A safe and quiet stay
Reviewed By aalpolPennywise Cottages is situated a 20 minutes walk from the town centre and a safe and quiet place to stay. The staff is very friendly, the rooms small and so are the beds and the bathroom is simple but clean and everything is functioning as it shoud be. The airconditioning is not a unnecessary luxury and the wifi is good.The breakfast is cooked by one of the female staff (familiy of the owner) without knowing at what time. It takes long and the quality is alright. The kitchen for common use is hot and sticky. We would consider staying elsewhere next time.
2. Matetsi Victoria Falls
Overall Ratings
5 based on 201 reviews
5-Star rated Matetsi Victoria Falls on the pristine 55 000 hectare Matetsi Private Game Reserve, offers a safari oasis that combines an exceptional wildlife experience and 15km (9.3 miles) of private Zambezi River frontage with easy access to the majestic Victoria Falls. Matetsi Private Game Reserve pays homage to the wonderfully rich cultural heritage of Zimbabwe by showcasing a vibrant theme of wood and copper, the “red gold” of the country’s historical mining industry, throughout the spectacular interiors of Matetsi River Lodge and Matetsi River House. Splashes of bright blue remind guests of the rushing waters of the Zambezi River. Guests staying at Matetsi River Lodge and Matetsi River House have the opportunity to take advantage of an extensive Boutique, a fitness studio, massage sala and boardroom. A 20 meter long, rim-flow swimming pool stretches along the riverbank, while an exclusive wine cellar boasts eye-level views of the Zambezi River.
World-Class
Reviewed By NicoleBenjaminUSAThis was the last stop on our long-awaited honeymoon, which also included stays at AndBeyond Mnemba Island in Zanzibar and Giraffe Manor in Nairobi. Having never been on safari before, we valued the ability to balance game drives with the various other on-property activities, and, of course, a visit to the falls. We opted for four nights and loved every minute. The suites at Matetsi are standalone, spacious, and well-designed. The bed is huge. The food is top-class; we were fortunate that our stay aligned with a “bush dinner” - indescribably special. River views are spectacular. Boat cruises, canoeing, and a walking falls tour were included; we did all three and also indulged in massages, which were excellent. If there’s one criticism, it’s that there was so much fixed-schedule activity to try to fit in, it was a bit difficult to keep track of in the absence of a written itinerary. Perhaps a consequence of us being rookies on the safari circuit more than anything else. We went in thinking we’d only join one game drive - that would’ve been perfectly fine - but ended up joining four. They were life changing. There were lions, hyena, buffaloes, zebra, giraffes, honey badgers, dik-dik, hundreds of elephants, and many others. The wildlife weren’t accustomed to encountering people, which made for an authentic experience. The sunrise and sunset views were worth the trip on their own. We’ve spent an inordinate amount of our savings staying at some of the highest-ranked luxury properties in the US and Europe, but take the time to write reviews only when the staff make such an impression that it is wrong not to do so. This was one of those rare cases. Dr. Gardiner and her team are kind, genuine, prideful people and it was a privilege to spend this important fleeting moment in our lives with them. Mengo has seemingly infinite, encyclopedic knowledge of wildlife in the region. He is also a passionate family man with high moral character - we learned far more from him than merely one-off animal factoids. Bongani is an elite spotter and future guide who saw a 6-inch chameleon on a tree branch 30 meters from our vehicle in the dark of night. Andile was the perfect butler - appropriately casual and confident, tirelessly helpful, and a pleasure to converse with. Lloyd is a true professional and future star. Romeo gave us an excellent tour of the falls. We are grateful to each of them. We will absolutely return one day (even if it costs all of King Midas’ silver), so long as the Gardiner family continues to operate the property and Mengo sticks around. Until then, we’ll relive the memories in our heads as often as we possibly can. -Ben and Nicki

Two beautiful self-catering cottages set incredibly on the banks of the Pungwe River in the Nyanga National Park in Zimbabwe's Eastern Highlands. Fly-fishing for rainbow trout, walks, vast wilderness area with waterfalls, pools and rivers. Kayaking and white water rafting.
Tranquility at the finest
Reviewed By TravellingTobinsAn amazing place - definitely one of our favourites. Right on the river with a creek running up the side. Waterfall and cascading waterfalls to play in. Lots of walks and hiking to do. 2 cottages - very rustic but clean and well maintained. No electricity but lamps provided and hot water for baths. Cottages are self contained and have space for 5 people plus a lounge area and fireplace. Heaps of green grassy area to play and relax outside. About 4 hours from Harare.

Great experience
Reviewed By PelandabaLovely self contained thatched roof cottage, hidden away at the end of the street. Our host John was very accommodating, even when there was electricity outage, he was waiting for us when we got back from our visits, with solar light and connected a lamp via inverter. Loved the dogs, especially Rolo the ridgeback, very friendly, came to greet us in the mornings. There is walking paths into forest-like. Wake up to chickens crowing, birds singing, very tranquil. Shops/bottle stores nearby. Only downside was the pool, which was green and unusable. Will definitely stay again in the future. Thanks John & Bryony

Wonderful hosts and accommodations
Reviewed By steve192On a recent motorcycle trip we were lucky enough to find this wonderful place in Bulawayo. The owners were extremely gracious, with great advice and local knowledge. Leaving early meant we were going to miss the included breakfast, they would not hear of it and cooked and packed a wonderful meal for the road, ready for our 6am departure. Rooms were comfortable with everything one would need, including full kitchenette, sat tv, wifi, secure and very hot water!
