Kayube Estate on the Zambezi River is home to four unique accommodation options: the Mama Out of Africa, River Bungalows (3), the River House and the Boat House. Each boasts incredible views of Zambezi river and sits opposite Zimbabwe national park.
Kayube Estate Manor House was built in the early 90s. The land, initially devoted to farming, was used to grow citrus, vegetables and other crops. Today Kayube maintains a small citrus orchard, where guests can help themselves to fruit when in season.
