Matetsi Victoria Falls is renowned for its exquisite African contemporary interiors that seamlessly blend with the untamed wilderness that envelops it.

Subtle touches, such as clay-pot down lighters and fish-trap inspired features, add a unique charm, while custom works by local artisans imbue the lodge with a distinct local character.

Here, guests are pampered by a dedicated team, including a private chef and butler, ensuring a truly personalized and indulgent experience.
