One of very few small independent lodges actually on the Zambezi riverbank near Victoria Falls, Waterberry is perfectly placed for guests to enjoy total peace and quiet, away from the noise and bustle of activities around town, while being close to the Falls and all the adventures that Livingstone has to offer.

Guests can choose between three different accommodation options – bright, individual rooms in the 7-room lodge, a private safari house or a luxury tented woodland site.

Waterberry Lodge on the river has spacious sun and dining terraces, a viewing lounge to enjoy the panoramic views, and magnificent gardens with individual thatched cottages dotted around the lawns and along the river. An inviting swimming pool is surrounded by rockery gardens.

The River Farmhouse at Waterberry Lodge is a private riverfront safari house with chefs, household and garden team. Available for a minimum of 4 guests, this 5 bedroom house has magnificent views across the Zambezi from the house and the beautiful infinity pool.

The Woodlands at Waterberry Lodge set in the shady woods of the conservation area is perfect for birdwatching and relaxing in the peaceful wild. This unique camp sleeps up to 8 and can be booked for exclusive use with a minimum of 4 guests.

Waterberry is famous for good food and friendly, welcoming service and has been No 1 on Trip Advisor Speciality Lodging listing in the area for a number of years.

An international Zambian, German and British team run this independently owned lodge and Waterberry is a proud community partner. Guests are able to witness rural Zambian life first hand, and see how tourism is genuinely giving back with schools, a farming cooperative and adult skills centre.
