Kayube Bungalows is located 25 km away from Livingstone Town. The property is located at the Zambezi River across the Zambezi National Park and offers chalet accommodation.

Offering magnificent river views, the air-conditioned and private chalets are tucked away under huge indigenous trees. Each has a spacious veranda and a well-equipped kitchen with stove, oven and refrigerator. The bathrooms are fitted with a shower.

Karien, the manager, takes with her team care of the guest from arrival to departure. They were there, when needed, and went out of our way when we wanted to relax. The house was very clean und equipped with everything we needed. Awesome ! It is only a few meters away from the river and we had stunning views on the river at sunrise and sunset. Truly magic. We enjoyed the two-hour-boat trip as well. Junior was the Guide and he gave us the time we needed to look at birds and other animals. We enjoyed it and will definitely come back. Thanks Karien !

The location is amazing, right on the banks of the Zambezi. The staff were amazing when we asked for a table close to the river on the terrace,they said we will find you a better one and put us on the top deck of the hotel's boat for our own private meal.

I really liked the river-view room on the Zambezi, with a lovely terrace. Staff was great, food excellent and the atmosphere on the Zambezi river magic! I loved the sunset cruise which leaves directly in front of the hotel.

    The breakfast was below standard and you have to beg for it even if there is load shedding I believe hospitality industry use gas cookers to serve the guests efficiently with hot food. Most lodges and hotels i have been to they set the breakfast buffet so that as guests walk in they're served even the common chefing dishes did not have burners to keep food warm coming to the sausage they cut it in tiny pieces and it doesn't give appetite, I only had my breakfast the first morning

    Excellent location. Great bar and restaraunt overlooking the river. Good food, friendly staff and some fantastic trips which can be arranged via the hotel booking office. Highly recommend the microlight flight, steam train dinner and Elephant Cafe. We also did a super mini safari at the David Livingstone park and a sunset cruise. There are packages on offer for booking combination trips which can be cheaper than doing individual bookings. Oh and of course don’t forget a trip to the falls!

    Very comfortable lodge, nice outside area with small pool, good breakfast and restaurant, friendly staff. Even with rolling load shedding imposed by the government, the lodge managed to maintain hot water, lights, a/c, and wifi for 90% of the time which was great compared to other places.

    The whole experience at the lodge was above expectations! The staff was friendly and helpful, the lodge area and rooms where clean and the food was good in the lodge's restaurant and bar. The lodge can also arrange wide variety of activities such as sunset cruises and safaris with a decent price that start straight at the lodge. These were easy and hazzle-free way to see Livingstone and Victoria Falls area!

    We couldn't be happier with our decision to stay at The David Livingstone Safari Lodge. Our experience was fantastic. Beautiful hotel right on the Zambezi river, and all the staff were super friendly and helpful. An extra nice touch to receive a personal card from the team to wish us well on our honeymoon!
