This is an optimum place to stay with incredibly staff and brilliant battle field tours with a bit of wild life thrown in. I can’t recommend it enough. So yourself a favour and go!!!

What is not to like? The staff are amazing, the place is exquisite and the whole experience was wonderful. It was lovely being close to town yet a bit outside of it (few minutes drive) and opposite the open animal corridor.

Relaxing garden and pool area

A wonderfull building at the outskirts of town with great communal spaces, and a wonderful separate garden with large pool and large bar area! Ideal for relaxing in between activities and game drives! No restaurants around but you can have lunch here, and dine in the neighbouring mansion,

Amazing stay. Looks better in person than in the pictures. The most amazing staff. Highly highly recommend.

The property is so cosy. Close to all the attractions. Everything is clean. My favourite part was the garden. It’s beautiful and you can hear the birds

It is situated on the edge of the Zambezi national park. Close to town centre and the falls.

Good option if you want to be away from the town centre

Staff were very accommodating & allowed me both an early check in & late check out. The room is fine and there is also a bar/pool area. They do not offer dinner but the hotel next door does and it was excellent.

I had the most amazing stay in Drift Inn - this lodge is simply beautiful! Staff is warm and welcoming. Their help was indispensable to make my trip to Victoria Falls as memorable as it was. Lodge is just by wildlife corridor, so you cannot walk outside at night. On the other hand, you can enjoy elephants in the morning :). There is an option to have dinner in a lodge next to Drift Inn, which I also warmly recommend. I would gladly return.
