I’m a sucker for a stylish Robinson Crusoe vibe, and this certainly fits the bill. It’s much more developed/stylish than before. But still with oodles of charm and romance.
There are five chalets including two honeymoon chalets at Sindabezi Island Lodge. These are considerably smarter and don’t cost that much more so I would definitely plump for these.
These are larger with own bath with a view, and hammocks. The Sunrise room overlooks Zambezi National Park (Zim side) so sometimes have animals coming down to opposite riverbank to drink. The Sunset Room is same size of room but has a large open shady area to sit in, can do private dinners there Note – all rooms have open bathrooms to the side of the bedrooms (no enclosed loo)
The standard rooms are fine but quite a bit smaller. Th bathroom, incl toilet, is open to the room, which is not ideal so be warned.
Practical Comments
- Sindabezi now has a small plunge pool for the camp
- Dining and sitting central mess tents
- Treehouse, quiet chill-out area
- Note: Fans only at moment but adding the eco-friendly “Air-Breeze” cooling system over the bed in early 24 which will be a game-changer for the hot months of Oct-Nov.
