What a wonderful stay! This unique eco-lodge is lovingly built with so many fun and artistic features. We really enjoyed the cool sleep and outdoor shower but the grounds are quiet and picturesque too. The staff is beyond attentive and helped us book a safari day at Chobe as well, for a very reasonable price. The restaurant menu is a bit limited but it’s so close to everything that it’s easy to find some variety nearby. We will be recommending Munga to everyone! And we hope next time we come to find the natural swimming pool ready for us! Thank you.

A really nice hotel. The rooms are divided into separate villas. Breakfast is better than average for Zambia. The ECO hotel might benefit from more LED lighting to reduce power consumption. A few more hooks in the bathroom and shower areas would be helpful.

My stay at the Munga Eco-Lodge was a dream. It was perfectly peaceful, comfortable and lovely and the staff could not have been more pleasant, helpful and accommodating. The food was some of the best I've had. The kitchen makes "western" dishes but was more than happy to make me local dishes when I requested and when you try the coffee you will find yourself not be able to wait until morning. I learned it is grown locally and I was able to buy some to bring home. I stocked up and I will probably think of going back when I run out! It is a short, beautiful drive to Victoria Falls along an elephant corridor and I saw elephants and zebra. Visiting the national park that is next to the lodge I saw every kind of animal. A bonus of staying there was that the shuttle service that the lodge uses provided the most delightful service imaginable. The driver was outgoing and personable and instantly could answer any question or take me to exactly what I needed or was looking for and always ensured I'd be safe. If needed he went with me places and if he had to wait he was completely patient. He really took my visit over the top. It was a trip of a lifetime and I will miss everyone I met there.

Romantic and charming
Very nice lodge, with a romantic feel. The thatched roof cottages are spacious and well equipped. We had one near the natural pool. The open-air shower is a definite must! One feels very close and connected to the environment. Loved hearing the sounds of the African bush around. On the way back from the falls, we saw elephants in the afternoon. The same herd made its way to the gate in the evening and we could observe them from a few metres away. Food is simple but good and the team is very helpful (they proactively contacted us to arrange shuttle service and helped us to book activities). We will be back, for sure, as we want to see the falls with high water levels!

Thank you for taking time to give us a review. It was a pleasure hosting you. We really want our guests to feel close and connected to the african bush as comfortably as possible. We so glad you could have that experience and meet our neighbors(the elephants)!!! Its a pity you came at a time the water levels were low. We look forward to hosting you when you return. Best wishes

A cost effective way to connect with nature
Loved our stay here. While the high end hotel chains have monopoly over the Zambezi water front, munga offers an affordable nature experience right near the falls. We woke to bird sounds in the mornings, showered under the stars and our little boy loved chasing frogs and spotting bats. I can't say enough about the friendly and helpful staff, these guys bent over backwards to ensure we enjoyed our stay.

Munga Eco lodge - godt valg i Livingstone
Veldig hyggelig opplevelse. Personlig velkomst fra eierne (canadisk/zambesisk par), og god hjelp til å arrangere sightseeingopplegg. Nydelig sted med egen hytte og eget privat uteområde, god mat. Kort vei til bysentrum, men avhengig av drosje fordi det lå i et naturreservat der man ikke kunne gå på egen hånd. I det hele tatt mer enn jeg hadde forventet til en rimelig pris.
