Amazing to wake up to find zebras outside your windows - very good hotel only downside the family room with 2 queen beds was on the small size. They forgot about the free bottle of wine until reminded. Apart from that all good.

The welcome was amazing which my children loved and appreciated a lot. I am a Zambian who has lived and given birth to my children abroad. This was the first time I brought my children (24, 22 and 8 years old) to Zambia to fully embrace the culture and Avani gave us that. From the welcome to the night entertainment, and all the in-between surrounding activities were just phenomenal. We could sit having a meal and the Zebras or impalas are also grazing just a few meters away from us without any fear as the animals mind their own business- this was a beautiful experience. All the staff were super friendly. The planned activities were not too far away from the hotel too and transport was very easy to access- so another positive. Overall- a very positive 4-day stay and the children have asked that we go back! 5**

It delivered way more than it promised, it was the most amazing hotel I have stayed in, the hospitality was unbeatable, we saw so many Zebra, giraffes, baboons and impala. The food was amazing, breakfast was amazing. We were on the Livingstone Natural park property and the walk to the falls was less than a 5 minute walk.

Without a question the best value for money if you are visiting the Victoria Falls area. The hotel is within the national park so you have free access to the falls which are a 5 minute walk from your room. In addition, there are zebras, giraffes, impalas and monkeys roaming free within the grounds which makes for an unforgettable experience. The staff is incredibly well trained and accommodate all of our needs, always with a smile and good attitude.
