Ilala Lodge
Ilala Lodge is situated on the Zimbabwean side of Victoria Falls and is only an 8 minute walk from this natural wonder. This lodge is also located on the Zambezi River and is also close to the main town centre, Victoria Falls. Priced from USD 300 per person.
Home away from home
From the copious breakfast to the delicious dinners, the comfortable rooms (with patio) and the wildlife roaming over the grounds (warthogs, hippos, hornbills, to name just a few), this was the perfect place to visit for Victoria Falls. The national park was only a short walk away, as were a pharmacy, other restaurants, and many shops. The Lodge helped us easily arrange a sunset boat trip on the Zambesi river and a helicopter ride over the falls. All staff was friendly and helpful. They also arranged for a taxi to and from the airport. We felt no unrest from the recent political events in Zimbabwe and were perfectly safe.
Comfortable Convenient Luxury at Victoria Falls
The Ilala Lodge is conveniently located walking distance about a quarter mile from the Victoria Falls Park which has spectacular views of The Falls. It’s also walking distance to many nice restaurants, shops, and even a brewery. The on-site Palm restaurant is phenomenal with creative and artistically prepared meals for both dinner and breakfast with great views and Outdoor dining hearing and seeing the roast and most of the falls above the lush jungle landscape
Disregard many older reviews that are critical. Wi-Fi worked consistently whether in the room or centrally Service was always accommodating. The newer Deluxe rooms are spacious and well-appointed. Only hassle is if you do Zambia based activities then you have to deal with border crossing and immigration. Overall a great value as we booked 6 couples who unanimously agreed with this opinion.
Beautiful lodge in the heart of Vic Falls
Perfect place to stop whilst enjoying all that Vic Falls has to offer. Fabulous reception staff booked Boma evening (a must do!) rafting, etc. Great breakfast with wide continental selection and hot food cooked to order. Rooms were spacious (we were in the original block) with reasonable bathrooms. Lovely views across the lawns with the occasional wildlife such as monkeys and deer. Beauty treatments are available and I had a very good massage.
