I loved this place so much. It is a beautiful property. The staff are amazing! Friendly, kind and just the best. They have a shuttle to the falls that is very convenient. If I could give them a million stars, I would.

An amazing find that exceeded my expectations. The staff was in communication with me prior to my arrival and helped book airport transfers and excursions. The property itself was lovely and I didn't really want to leave it. I hope I can return some day.

Fantastic, friendly small lodge
Amazing friendly staff. Very well appointed rooms and common areas. A small intimate lodge. A nice relief from the larger, commercial facilities. Very convenient shuttle into town. I will most definitely return in future years with my group.

Contemporary bliss in Vic Falls
Our African safari ended at the lodge closest to the falls, but the incessant brain-rattling thump-thump-thump of scenic helicopter flights all through the day drove us to seek alternative accommodation away from downtown. Insika Lodge proved to be the perfect capstone to our weeks of adventure: huge gorgeous rooms, friendly and attentive staff, delicious meals, and no ambient Apocalypse Now soundtrack of choppers beating the air. We loved watching the resident mongooses roam the grounds, appreciated having USB charging ports on both sides of the massive bed, luxuriated in having *two* separate rainfall shower faucets, and were grateful for shuttle driver Carlton’s above-and-beyond assistance in making trips to and from the border outside of his set schedule. We also highly recommend Insika’s river cruise—their private vessel is extremely comfortable and attractively appointed. Captain Evidence is as well-versed in birds, wildlife, and photography as he is in safely navigating the Zambezi, and his crew, Munya and Freeman, amazed us all with the cornucopia of excellent food and drink that they conjured from the minuscule galley and bar.

Perfect place to stay in Victoria Falls
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Insika Lodge. The hotel is quite new and is as pretty as the photos. It is a very calm and relaxing place to stay. The staff was friendly and helpful and made our vacation memorable.

Look no further than Insika Lodge. The property is immaculate. Serene and picturesque, well-appointed rooms, exemplary staff, great food, the whole package. From the seamless airport pickup (Thulani), a team of knowledgeable reception staff ready to advise and assist with just about anything, gifted massage therapists in the spa, the most-courteous F&B staff I've experienced in a long while, cheerful and attentive housekeeping including turn down service. You'll want for nothing. At 1/5 the rates of the Victoria Falls Hotel, this property offers EXCEPTIONAL value.

Insika Lodge is a wonderful vacation destination. Their pictures do not do it justice. We loved the room, service and staff. Their food is amazing and reasonably priced. The included breakfast menu is also fantastic. Loved everything about Insika. Was sad we only had 2 days there. If I ever return to Vic Falls, I will certainly book here again and for more days.

Bella struttura elegante lontana da Victoria Falls, attorniata da bei giardini ed una comoda piscina. Camere ampie, luminose e pulite. Non c'è la televisione, ma non ci abbiamo fatto caso: il wi-fi funziona molto bene in tutta l'area. Como il servizio navetta che periodicamente collega gratuitamente l'hotel con le cascate Vittoria ed il centro del paese. Ottima la cena e la colazione.
