The Elephant Camp

The Elephant Camp lies in its own private concession alongside the Zambezi gorge, near to Victoria Falls in Zimbabwean. Elephant Camp is on a hill, enjoying sweeping views over the grasslands, the dramatic Batoka gorge and towards the spray of Victoria Falls. The main lodge is stylish and flows out onto a wraparound deck which overlooks a waterhole. This is a frequent drinking hole for elephants. On a lower deck is a swimming pool with sun loungers, closer to this waterhole for game-viewing whilst lounging.

Accommodation

Elephant Camp offers an intimate safari experience with only 12 luxury air-conditioned tented suites. It has an identical yet smaller sister, Elephant Camp West with four suites. Those on the west side enjoy panoramic views towards Victoria Falls. Whilst those on the east side overlook the yawning Batoka gorge. All are beautifully appointed with a private viewing deck, plunge pool and outside shower. Inside there's a sitting area, air-conditioning, ceiling fan, tea/coffee facilities and a full bathroom with shower and free-standing bath.

Elephant Interaction

Their elephant sanctuary, also on the reserve, offers ample opportunity to see elephants, as well as other wildlife. And a short interaction with the elephants is included in your stay. As African elephants are very rarely encountered outside the wild, it is a great joy to be able to enjoy such close company of these magnificent creatures.

The Elephant Camp West

The Elephant Camp West’s four suites cater for groups or perhaps multi-generational families? The suites are of the same size, style and design as the rooms at The Elephant Camp. Each suite has a bedroom area (interchangeable beds to suit king or twin), a lounge area with comfortable fold-out sleeper-couch style beds. So it can cater for small families.  The camp serves as an extension of the Elephant Camp. Or as a stand-alone lodge offering an exclusive experience for up to 16 guests.

All the suites were sited to maximise privacy through the use of existing trees. Other green initiatives include using ‘grey water’ systems, worm farms for bio-waste and solar water heaters. Plus they planted 50 indigenous trees and established a nursery to ensure the continued forestation of the reserve.

4 night offers

Elephant Camp also has two 4 night offers. One combines one night at Elephant Camp with three nights at its sister lodge, Imbalala Safari Lodge which lies in its own private game concession. The other combines Elephant Camp with Old Drift Lodge on the Zambezi river.
