Matetsi Water Lodge

The luxurious Matetsi Water Lodge is situated along a private Zambezi River frontage, and is renowned for sophisticated accommodation and sweeping views of the river and surrounding African wilderness. The 3 camps - West Water, North Water and East Water - are set on the riverbank under a canopy of lush, riverine trees.

Matetsi's location next to the great Zambezi River offers exhilarating water activities such as boat cruises, canoeing and fishing, in addition to excellent game viewing and birdwatching. You may also enjoy many thrilling adventures at nearby Victoria Falls.

Experienced rangers and trackers will lead you on interpretive game-drives in open 4x4 safari vehicles. Matetsi is one of the very few areas in Zimbabwe where night game-drives are permitted, revealing a host of interesting nocturnal animals.

Enjoy leisurely morning and/or afternoon riverboat cruises on Matetsi's private stretch along the mighty Zambezi River, offering the perfect opportunity to spot Matetsi's incredible birdlife, hippos and elephants while watching a glorious sunrise or sunset.

Each camp comprises 6 private suites with vast teak doors that swing open to plunge pools and decks with magnificent river views. The layout of each camp ensures privacy and intimacy in an idyllic setting.

Open sided, thatched guest areas consist of an elegant dining and sitting area with large fireplace.

Delicious Pan-African cuisine is served on the intimate riverside dining decks or in a surprise setting in Matetsi's pristine wilderness.
