Batonka Guest lodge is set in lush gardens, a tranquil haven away from the bustle of town. Situated only 2.1 km (1.3miles) from the majestic mighty Victoria Falls. Batonka Guest Lodge is a small and elegant retreat on the Zimbabwean side of the Falls. Batonka offers good value and comfortable rooms, each with its own veranda that opens onto the surrounding lawns, as well as all the necessary modern conveniences to ensure you feel relaxed and at home.

The Lodge:

The main lodge offers indoor and outdoor dining, a cosy lounge and beautiful verandah opening out onto the surrounding gardens. The facilities include a swimming pool, activities desk and curio shop

Sixteen rooms with private patios look out over manicured lawns to the secluded pool area. Each large, well-appointed room boasts a spacious en suite bathroom with double basins, bath and shower.

Eleven rooms with spacious patios look out over a private garden with manicured lawns and indigenous trees. Eight of these rooms inter-lead and are ideal for families or groups travelling together.

Activities:

One of the benefits of seeing Victoria Falls from the Zimbabwean side is that it has the most viewpoints owing to three-quarters of the Falls being found there. Water flow can also still be seen in the dry season.

There’s plenty more to see and do in the area, including micro flights, canopy tours, game drives, horseriding, whitewater rafting and Zambezi cruises.
