My stay at the hotel was delightful, thanks to the stunning views of Lake Kariba and a truly memorable dining experience by the lakeside. The rooms were not only clean but also very comfortable, providing a perfect retreat after long days out. The staff was incredibly attentive and made my visit feel special. However, I noticed that the hot weather outdoors was quite intense, which might be a consideration for future visits. Overall, this hotel offers great value for its beautiful scenery and quality service.

The hotel offers stunning views and a lovely atmosphere, but it falls short in service and pricing. While the rooms are decent, the dining experience was a major letdown with overpriced and below-par food. The pool facilities were disappointing as well, which dampens the overall experience. If you're looking for value for money, you might want to think twice.

I recently spent a week at Caribbea Bay and overall, it was a pleasant experience. The staff, especially Terry, were commendable for their quick responses to complaints and for being accommodating during our late-night workshops. The location offers stunning views of the lake, but there were issues like power outages and slow internet. Dining was hit or miss; while the boat cruise was fun, it felt too short. The rooms were well air-conditioned, but the bathroom needed some serious renovations, making it a mixed bag in terms of comfort.

The hotel has stunning views of Lake Kariba, which made our breakfasts truly memorable. The air conditioning in the rooms was effective, but it was disappointing not to have a refrigerator to keep drinks cool in the summer heat. However, the dining experience was quite frustrating due to the unexpectedly high prices and slow service. Overall, while the scenery was breathtaking, the value for money leaves much to be desired, especially regarding the dining.

This resort has a charming atmosphere that truly feels like a home away from home. Overlooking the beautiful Lake Kariba, I had the pleasure of encountering elephants and hippos during my stay. The rustic finish of the buildings and the well-kept gardens added to its unique appeal. While the room was fantastic, part of the dining experience took longer than expected, which was a slight drawback.
