The Bushfront Lodge

The Bushfront is a quaint little bush getaway in Livingstone on the Zambian side of the Victoria Falls. It’s conveniently close to the falls (6km), the Zambezi River (5 minutes), Livingstone Town (5km) and the Mosi-Oa-Tunya National Park (5 minutes). It’s just off the main road between Livingstone Town and the falls and easily accessible by car. The lodge offers ‘meet and greet’ transfers from the airport.

Upon arrival at the lodge you are welcomed by the friendly staff dressed in very colourful attire and led straight to the pool area for a refreshing drink. Once you are sufficiently cooled down you are taken to your chalets.

The rooms are big and airy and each chalet is set well apart from the next – ensuring that extra bit of privacy. Prepare to fall in love with the showers. Built out of masses of rocks with a cascading flow of water, these mini Victoria Falls offer a truly African experience. Needless to say, taking a shower might end up being the favourite part of the day!

The Bushfront is run by Sanja, Arthur (in the office), Mercy (at Reception) and Sakie(Food and Beverage manager). They are always on hand to offer advice, assistance or simply a friendly chat. The staff are well trained and really friendly. They will go out of their way to create a warm and hospitable environment for guests, and it makes all the difference.

The lodge is very family friendly and the rooms can easily accommodate three beds -great for families with odd numbers. The dining and bar area is also right next to the pool, allowing parents to keep an eye on the little ones while relaxing in the shade.

The grounds are surrounded by dense African woodland with abundant (and very active) birdlife. Another big plus is the sound of elephants trumpeting and hippos grunting that can be heard from the lodge. This is truly Africa.

The lodge has a restaurant that offers great pub-lunch type of meals. There is also a separate DSTV lounge.

The Livingstone/Victoria Falls area is known as the adventure capital of the world - making The Bushfront the ideal base for adventure seekers, sightseers and those looking for something different. Game drives are very popular and the Mosi-Oa-Tunya National Park is known for its abundant wildlife ranging from buffalo, elephants, impala, giraffe and the endangered white rhino. The lodge is ideal for self-drivers as it is easily accessible in both two and four wheel drive vehicles. Transfers to the various activities are usually included and a taxi service is available from the lodge.

If you’re after adventure-filled days and great wildlife viewing followed by good food and a quiet retreat in the evenings – The Bushfront is definitely for you.
