Lolebezi

Overview

Discover the pinnacle of safari luxury at Lolebezi, an architectural marvel nestled on a private, one-kilometre stretch of the Zambezi River in Zambia's Lower Zambezi National Park. As an 'Icon Experience' in the African Bush Camps portfolio, Lolebezi merges world-class contemporary design with a profound commitment to sustainability, operating entirely off-grid on its private solar farm. The lodge's design, featuring green rainforest marble and reclaimed railway sleepers, creates a seamless flow between opulent interiors and the untamed wilderness outside. Each of the eight expansive suites is a sanctuary of privacy and comfort, boasting a private plunge pool and a shaded sala with uninterrupted river views. Watch elephants wander past from your deck, indulge in a spa treatment, or cool off in the river-facing infinity pool. The experience is tailored to you, with a dedicated team ensuring every moment is unforgettable, from private dinners under the stars to movie nights in the open-air bush cinema. Lolebezi is a wildlife haven, renowned for its incredible leopard sightings, large elephant herds, and vibrant packs of wild dogs. The lodge offers a rare combination of both land and water-based activities. Embark on exhilarating game drives, track wildlife on foot with expert guides, canoe through serene river channels, or try your hand at catch-and-release tiger fishing. This is not just a safari; it's an immersion into the wild heart of the Zambezi in absolute style.
