Zambezi Sands: picture gallery


Zambezi Sands sits on a remote stretch of the Zambezi River...
...inside the Zambezi National Park
Zambezi Sands feels quite isolated compared to other accommodation options closer to the Victoria Falls
Meals are often served outside at Zambezi Sands.
Being able to wake up to a freshly cooked breakfast...
...and then to sit and enjoy it with this view is one reason why we rate Zambezi Sands highly
Each of the ten luxury tents is raised up on stilts...
...and they are all linked by long wooden walkways
Inside, the tents are spacious and stylish
The tents have large windows and plenty of dark wood furnishings
The rooms are well appointed, with a dressing / writing table to the side of the bedroom...
...and a lounge area with a tea and coffee making station as well as a mini-bar
The bathroom is found in the centre of the tent...
...and inside there is a large bath tub and toilet.
At the side of each tent is an additional, outdoor, shower...
...as well as a 'loo-with-a-view'!
Each tent has views out to the Zambezi...
...and there's a large deck from which to enjoy the spectacle.
There are a couple of seating areas found here...
...and a private plunge pool too
Game viewing can be more challenging in Zambezi NP than other parks in Zimbabwe
...but with a bit of luck there is still plenty to see
The variety of activities on offer at Zambezi Sands is great...
... and the river is a major attraction.
There are plenty of islands where it's possible to moor up...
...enjoy a drink and some snacks...
...and watch the world go by!
