Sindabezi Island Lodge
Facilities
Rated by Fodors as one of the top 10 eco lodges in Africa, Sindabezi Island is unique. An idyllic, exclusive camp on a private isle on the Zambezi River, it is the only luxury bush camp in the Victoria Falls area. Sindabezi has only five open-sided thatched cottages, allowing guests to soak up the sights and sounds of the African bush in a perfect, pristine setting. Views across the floodplains of the Zambezi and into the nearby National Park complete the experience. Sindabezi Island is also the perfect private venue to book for small groups.

Activities
Dip your sandy toes into our splash pool while taking in the beauty of neighbouring islands in the Zambezi River. Even the hippos will be a little jealous as you float in the cool water or relax on a lounger under the trees.
Kick back at the Sindabezi Sand Bar in the middle of the Zambezi with that special person (or people) in your life. In true pop-up style, the location of our sandbar in the changes depending on the time of the year as nearby islands appear and disappear. So you never know where on the river…
Dine in true Sindabezi style while anchored offshore in the Zambezi River on a floating platform. This is a breakfast or dinner experience quite unlike any other. Attended by waiters, each meal is paddled out one course at a time to your private sampan. For breakfast, we advise an early start before the real heat…
Let our guides pick you a shady spot on a sandy island nearby – Sindabezi is not the only magical island on the Zambezi for those that love feeling entirely isolated from civilisation. Good company needs equally marvellous food and drinks, and our picnic lunch or sundowners and snacks match the occasion.
Join one of our guides on a walk around the island with binoculars and a bird book to spot some of Sindabezi’s diverse birdlife. Or if you would prefer to range a little further afield, you can take your talking bird book (Captain Ronald, for example!) into one of the boats and float around the…
Set a rod up against your very own river and wait for a nibble – is there anything more relaxing than that? There is no need to leave Sindabezi Island at all, although if you’re looking for a little more excitement, our guides do know the best spots to take a boat and hope for…
Invite your guide or host to sit with you around the campfire if you’re keen to stargaze and hear tales of the African wilderness. Most of our team have been part of our family for 10 to 30 years, and have collected a lot of marvellous stories in that time. Be sure to ask about…
