Latest Check-Ins
Big New Year's Eve party. Extremely expensive though $50,- entry - no free drinks or anything...
Report Check-InCamping sites are more like a grassy area between the lodges. We were the only ones camping and it would have gotten very tight on the grass. The area around the bar is very nice, but to our surprise it had turned into a nightclub when we got back after dinner. DJ playing until 03am, and as we all know, a tent it not exactly sound proof. Stayed there in a Saturday too Sunday only, so not sure if it’s just a weekend thing or a everyday thing
Report Check-InAs described. WiFi was relatively fast though. Showers weren't great, weren't very warm. Lots of people in tents when we were there. An overland truck with a good number of people too. Friendly and helpful staff.
Report Check-InAs we left our car in Kasane we decided to stay here in one of their double rooms. Do not expect much, the rooms are not the cleanest by any means but the bed was comfortable and the AC was a HUGE plus. You need to pay a $10 deposit if you want a towel, which for us semeed odd as we had booked a room not a dorm, but it is a hostel after all.
They do have a small restaurant bar, but they only take cash, so make sure you have some on you qnd is possible exact change as they seemed to never have change.
For us wifi was super fast and worked even in our room which was useful.
We paid $60 USD for a room which in our opinion was pricey, but compared to the area was one of the cheapest options.
If you stay here you must go eat at a restaurant called Paraiah which is right around the corner.
Report Check-InBack after 15 years and pretty much the same, small campsite for 1 or 2 cars, a loud late bar, meals which are quite expensive but everything is in Vic Falls and free 500mb voucher for internet, camping 8USD. Facilities need some desperate TLC.....stayed a week for free and helped making furniture
Report Check-InCamping $8pppn, nice bar with $2 beers, ablutions are a bit rundown. Easy walk into town.
Report Check-InWe visited this place because it was the cheapest and close to the waterfalls. Dirty showers and loud music until midnight. Wifi didn't work well. Luckily the staff was very friendly. $ 8,- pp
Report Check-InSmall area behind cottages for campers, separate lawn for tents under trees. On walking distance of village and falls
USD 16 (2 adults, camper)
