"This charming little lodge is the perfect base camp for exploring Livingstone. With accommodations for only 20 guests, it offers a peaceful, intimate atmosphere, supported by an attentive staff of 13 who are always happy to help in any way they can.
The outdoor lounge area and pool are ideal for relaxing after a day of sightseeing. While the lodge is a bit too far to comfortably walk to most attractions, arranging taxi rides was easy and hassle-free.
A special thank you to Stella, Kennedy, Destiny, and Naomi for going above and beyond to make our stay so memorable. Their warm hospitality truly made a difference.
I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Livingstone"
"We enjoyed our stay at the Maramba River Lodge. We were here for two nights. The rooms and beds were comfortable and clean. The showers were great with excellent water pressure. We enjoyed the breakfasts each morning; the service was good and timely. We also had two dinners at the restaurant which were great as well."
"My wife, son, and I had an excellent and memorable stay here. Our room was spotlessly clean, thanks to the fantastic housekeeping team, and the showers were incredible—it felt just like standing under Victoria Falls! The food was great, particularly the breakfasts and the poolside restaurant. However, I would have loved to see more local Zambian dishes on the standard restaurant menu. That said, the evening cultural show was a highlight, offering a wonderful display of Zambian culture alongside delicious traditional food. The hotel’s location is unbeatable; we easily walked to Victoria Falls three times and even took a day trip across the border. Additionally, the staff was highly helpful in arranging our airport transfers and excursions.
Another highlight is the animals roaming around. It's quite the experience to be lounging by the pool and have a giraffe standing next to you. Or looking out your window to see baboons or zebras.
We would definitely return."
Royal Livingstone Victoria Falls Zambia Hotel by Anantara
10/10 Excellent
"This place was relaxing and exceptional. Staff were very helpful including assisting with animal viewing on the property. Restaurant prices are very high and food was average (although we didn't eat in the fine dining Restaurant). Breakfast had a wonderful choice.
Views of the river, the thunder and spray of the Falls, together with easy walking and (free) access to the Falls (Zambia side) was great. The animals around the property made it more of an experience than just a luxury hotel. We would love to come back."
"Fantastic staff and convenient location in relation to the airport. There is a curio market right next door for those interested in shopping. The hotel is on the street so daytime street noise is inevitable, but it is very quiet at night. The room is clean, though basic. I enjoyed a very good stay thanks to the gracious and helpful staff. A special callout to Allan."
"Awesomes staff, courtyard, pool and restaurant. Lost a point because of the noisy bar nearby, very dated rooms and noisy roof (figs falling on metal roof at night kept waking me up)."
