Tongabezi Lodge is an exclusive retreat away from the crowds on the banks of the Zambezi River, 15 km upstream from the magnificent Victoria Falls. It small and secluded set in a tranquil grove of African ebony trees on a sweeping bend of the Zambezi River. Situated at the very end of the Tongabezi Lodge garden sits the Dog House, created to showcase the Zambezi. The front of the house hugs the shoreline and during high water the Zambezi can happily flow underneath the high stilted legs of the decks.
The open-plan central living, dining and swimming deck with infinity plunge pool are a testament to Tongabezi's signature attitude to space. The house also features a fabulous bar recycled from the prow of a boat in the shape of an Indonesian swordfish. Together with a double-sided fireplace, air-conditioning and a concertina glass front the bar and lounge area creates the perfect space for social gatherings.
Two king size bedrooms are reached via elevated walkways on either side of the main area and feature large areas for lounging and stunning en-suite bathrooms.
The Dog House is expansive and comes with its own exclusive valet, guide, vehicle and boat ensuring guests’ full control over the ultimate bespoke itinerary.
