Overview

Enjoy excellent hotel facilities, contemporary comforts and quick access to the world’s largest body of falling water at Avani Victoria Falls Resort in Livingstone. Vibrant colours, ornate décor and intricate mosaic prints combine with Zambian charm to offer chic living spaces, while warm hospitality and a range of thoughtful services will ensure you have a leisurely time exploring the Falls. The hotel is well-equipped, featuring a range of dining venues including an outdoor boma, a large swimming pool and outdoor bar, a children’s club and a sizable wellness spa.

The resort is located a mere 5-minute walk from the Falls, and all guests at Avani have unlimited access to the Zambian side of Victoria Falls for the duration of their stay. Take a walking tour or follow the well-marked trails to discover the sheer size and wonder of this incredible natural phenomenon. Return to the resort for a revitalising treatment at the spa, before topping the day off with a romantic sunset cruise on the Zambezi River. For the adventurous and young-at-heart there is white-water rafting and the famous ‘Flight of the Angels’, which allows you to marvel at the Falls from a helicopter or microlight.

This is a wonderful and comfortable family resort located very close to the Zambezi River. I love that it is within walking distance of the Victoria Falls on the Zambian side.
