Right in the middle of the Mosi-ay-Tunya game-reserve, be prepared for traffic delays due to elephants on the road.... For the same reason you can't walk up to town.... the Lodges are in a gated area, but as the river is on 1 side, elephants and hippos can make an appearance - in the river and right up next to your lodge or tent............ Lodges have flushing toilet shower and air-conditioning.... the overfed mosquito nets more or less kept them out overnight... Breakfast included for all stays and was cooked to order, instant coffee (filter available at the bar for additional charge) great menu if you fancy a day by the pool/river watching the elephants and baboons just across the Maramba river. And the occasional croc... Very close to the Victoria falls - so you will likely be the last pick up and first drop off on day trips .... lovely staff

I stayed in Luxury Tent 3 for 2 nights. The setting with muddy backwater is initially unremarkable, but I saw great birdlife and an elephant on the other side of the river. The sundowner boat ride (with guide Sector) was outstanding. After a few minutes, the tributary joins the Zambezi, and our extremely well-informed guide did an excellent job identifying birds and spotting wildlife. I had a good Greek salad and pork schnitzel at the restaurant. Prices are reasonable compared to the more upmarket hotels. If you are anxious about encountering wildlife (which does pass through the lodge), then book Luxury Tent 1 which is right next to the restaurant. There were lots of mosquitoes but the tents have fans and aircon (though I would have felt better if there had been a mosquito net). Mr Lubinda at reception was very helpful, and the staff are friendly and kind.

I truly loved this lodge that is located in the middle of the safari. Upon entering the lodge, I passed a herd of elephants in the middle of the road. There are signs around the lodge indicating the rhinos in the area, as well. The chalet, which was like a tiny house, was decorated beautifully. The staff was extremely helpful, and they assist you with booking excursions you can enjoy. Van drivers come to get you to take you to your excursions.

We stayed at Maramba River Lodge for 3 nights. Playground and restaurant on site. Nice cottages within national park. Really enjoyed our stay here. 5-10 mins to Victoria falls.

We spent 5 days in Maramba River Lodge. This is our hotel choice because of the location by River Maramba with the on-site river cruises for guests. We took the sunset cruise as well as morning river safari that turned out to be just the two of us, fantastic! In the area, hippos, elephants, crocodiles and lots of beautiful birds are also found. We stayed in the chalet, which is clean and comfortable. There is one main restaurant, providing breakfast and all day food. Pricing is reasonable and the portion is large but sometimes have to be patient when the restaurant is busy. All staff are helpful and friendly. This has been an excellent travel experience with the local wildlife around the Lodge, highly recommended.

Wonderful stay! Maramba Lodge was a wonderful place to end our time in Zambia! The staff is so friendly and the lodge and its grounds are beautiful! We went for a game drive and on a guided tour of the falls (organized by the lodge) which were amazing and affordable. Even saw elephants and hippos from the property! We would definitely recommend this lodge and we hope to return soon! Also, I want to give a shout out to Lubinda, who was very gracious, patient and easy to work with!
