The lodge can also be reached by boat and road from Lusaka (5hrs) and a four-wheel-drive vehicle is required.
STYLE
Royal Zambezi Lodge is a striking combination of contemporary style and comfort and muted bush colours. Consisting of large green canvas tents under thatched roofs, king-size beds, comfortable sofas in front of roaring open fires and airy verandahs, the lodge is a luxurious base from which to explore this beautiful area.
GUEST AREAS
The central building with its lofty thatch roofs and open plan is comprised of a reception area, a dining room with crisp white tablecloths and an enormous fireplace, and an elegant lounge, with comfortable sofas and armchairs, perfect for whiling away a lazy afternoon or relaxing after dinner. All this is surrounded by a wide shady verandah with copper roofs for al fresco dining or taking tea in the afternoon. Timber decks extend over the river flood plain, perfect for eating under the stars or the afternoon. Timber decks extend over the rover flood plain perfect for eating under the stars or sitting around the campfire after dinner listening to the sounds of the African night. The terrace overlooks a narrow grassy flood plain, affording a constant procession of elephant, hippo, buffalo and waterbuck.
CUISINE
Meals are made from the finest fresh ingredients prepared by our team of experienced chefs. Dinner is served at either the long banquet table or at private tables under the stars, whilst breakfast and lunch may either be served in the lodge or as a picnic during a morning game watching. For an extra romantic occasion, Royal Zambezi is happy to offer a candlelit dinner with a difference-on an island in the middle of the Zambezi.
There is a long oval infinity pool for cooling off or sun tanning next to the river. Guests gather at the legendary Sausage Tree bar at sunset for drinks. Unquestionably the best bar on the river, it is built around a venerable old tree and its timber deck extends right out over the swiftly flowing channel, the perfect spot for sipping an ice cold G & T while the sun sets in a fiery spectacle.
SPA
One of the only wellness centers in Zambia, the Royal Zambezi Bush Spa’s facilities include two treatment rooms, and aroma filled steam room, Jacuzzi and a refreshing plunge pool. The therapeutic sessions offer an ideal retreat for guests wanting to escape their busy lives and experience a way of living often neglected. While the sights and sounds of the wild lull you into a state of complete relaxation and peace, breathe in the fresh air to awaken all your senses and revitalize your mind, body and soul.
