The chalet style rooms are large and comfortable, with the feel of privacy that makes me feel at home. We sat for hours just watching the wildlife - giraffes, kudu, baboons, impala. No need for a bumpy ride in a safari truck needed. And the food is delicious, too. Would definitely stay again. ##### Lisa Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kelly 1 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities My husband and I stayed at Ursula's for 6 days and we absolutely loved it. We chose the property for the access to nature, privacy and quiet--we were not disappointed in anyway. The staff was incredible, the food was excellent (menu is small, but there is the easy option of eating dinner at the sister property if you desire!!!). I was deeply sad to leave, and am already planning our return. Housekeeping was outstanding, Lorraine was our main point of contact and we loved her so much, and our favorite server was Brutus xxx ##### Kelly Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Paul 3 Apr 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This property is a gem. It is quiet with its own private game reserve and a watering hole in front of you. Well visited by animals! The bird life is outstanding. We awoke at sunrise to the most lovely birdsong and the resident troop of baboons kept us entertained. Milly and her staff were outstanding, attentive, kind and so helpful. The perfect host for a vacation of a life time. We will be back with the whole family!

Also no WiFi in rooms. Otherwise everything else was fine ##### zolelwa Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gert 21 Dec 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We (my wife and I), had a great stay at Ursula’s (surrounded by bush some 15km from the town of Victoria Falls). The staff was super helpful, efficient and friendly. The setting is great, with a water hole in near but safe proximity to each two-bed unit (electric fenced for the safety of guests and staff alike). To top it all, Ursula’s is good value for money. Transport arrangements by the staff was spot-on for our day excursions and our back-and-forth trips to the airport. No car rental was necessary. The few kilometers travel from the main tar road into tne bush, was a nice reminder that we were away from the town centre yet close enough to the falls etc. Street vendors and high pressure for a sale was bothersome to us; we feel for vendors’ need to make a buck, but they tend to be to close for comfort. ##### Gert ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 8 Jul 2024 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Excellent staff, some aspects need attention Ursula’s Homestead is located 20minutes out of the Victoria Falls town on the edge of a private game reserve. The lodge itself has incredible views over a watering hole and provides a lovely spot to really have some downtime. The pro’s:The staff were just absolutely amazing! Their attentiveness, and professionalism really enhanced the stay. From the super friendly landscaper, to the hospitality team (Prudence, Priscilla, Milly, Caleb, Duncan, Geoffrey), they really are superb. There is an onsite restaurant with which we really enjoyed every meal. The Sadza, fillets, and every breakfast we had were delicious. The room was large and comfortable - they also provided a proper wooden crib (not a pack and play) for our infant. The cons: it’s expensive. To add onto every expense is the cost to take the shuttle into town as it’s $12 per person per direction - highly recommend you stop in town when you can to grab some snacks and drinks as you may be adding $50 to your bill just to get to town and back for 2 people. The biggest let down for us was the room we stayed in. While large and comfortable in terms of the bed and quality bedding, the room is older and in desperate need of a bathroom update. The water was either scalding hot or freezing cold, and the shower had mold in it. As did the floor around the bathtub as the hose leaks if it’s not in the bathtub causing pools of water on the floor. Under the bed could also do with a good clean. Overall we enjoyed the stay ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Diana 15 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Die Zimmer waren sauber aber einfach.

The team there looked after us marvellously. They arranged trips and activities that we requested well and advices us on safety and what time of day was best to do these sort of activites. We even were woken up by the team so that we could see the wild rhino walk past the lodge which was very considerate. The breakfast was filling and well presented. It was all in all very peaceful and made for a lovely place to rest day before travelling home. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John, Palm Springs, Ca 30 Aug 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Wonderful lodge! It was great to find this wonderful small lodge with free shuttle to Victoria Falls. Staying in town is not necessary when you have this beautiful property as a retreat. The hospitality of Olivia, and the food prepared by a dedicated chef, went well beyond expectation. It is a piece of paradise. Book it if you can! ##### John Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2017 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hyatt Regency Harare The Meikles](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Harare-Hotels-Meikles-Hotel.h7612.Hotel-Information) > > [5 Star Hotels in Istanbul City Center](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Istanbul-City-Center-Istanbul-Hotels.s50-n6200319-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [BestWestern Hotels in Stoke-on-Trent](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stoke-On-Trent-Hotels-Best-Western.0-0-d5701--bBestWestern.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Troutbeck Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nyanga-Hotels-Troutbeck-Resort.h113536.Hotel-Information) > > [db San Antonio Hotel & Spa - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/St-Pauls-Bay-Hotels-Db-San-Antonio-Hotel-Spa-All-Inclusive.h913375.Hotel-Information) > > [Bronte Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Harare-Hotels-Bronte-Hotel.h8711749.Hotel-Information) > > [TUI BLUE Suite Princess - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mogan-Hotels-TUI-BLUE-Suite-Princess.h8157727.Hotel-Information) > > [Colina da Lapa & Villas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Carvoeiro-Hotels-Colina-Da-Lapa-Villas.h1456080.Hotel-Information) > > [Pamuzinda Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chegutu-Hotels-Pamuzinda-Safari-Lodge.h32691952.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Kallaroo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kallaroo-Perth-Hotels.0-n3000414122-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Villas Pas-de-Calais](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pas-De-Calais-Villas.d6025654-aaVillas.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Hotels in Dubai Emirate](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Dubai.d1079.Hotel-Destinations) > > [Hotels in Cap d'Agde](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cap-DAgde-Hotels.d6050741.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Bumi Hills Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bumi-Hills-Hotels-Bumi-Hills-Safari-Lodge.h64635057.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Sol e Mar - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Albufeira-Hotels-Hotel-Sol-E-Mar.h1515517.Hotel-Information) > > [Mana Pools Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hurungwe-Hotels-Mana-Pools-Safari-Lodge.h32693867.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Kathmandu](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kathmandu-Hotels.d1938.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [At Six](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stockholm-Hotels-At-Six.h16330830.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from London (LHR) to Sacramento (SMF)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/smf/london-to-sacramento) ### Activities
