Incredible experience
Posted 26 Apr 2021 on HotelsIncredible staff, hospitable, warm and welcoming. Highly comfortable accommodation, top notch facilities, gym and swimming pool were well maintained. The animals roaming through the camp were a magical experience, I’d recommend this camp to anyone travelling solo, or as a group through Zambia. If you’re looking for a more budget friendly immersive safari experience, this is it.

Loving so near Mfuwe park we have had the opportunity to enjoy several of the game lodges. Croc Valley has delightful and attentive staff, an beautiful pool and grounds. Plenty of seating along the river for game viewing while you rest or dine.
They have updated and upgraded many of their riverside self contained tents (more like a canvas chalet!) and are in the process of finishing the upgrades to the full amenity chalets. Their game drives are superb! We thoroughly enjoy our trips to Croc Valley!

Thank you very much for your great review. Even in these hard tiles we are trying our best to upgrade as much as we can. Once again thanks

Cost effective stay
Posted 14 Mar 2020 on HotelsConvenient place to stay close to the game reserve. Kitchenette allows for self catering, which can make it a cost effective stay. Staff are friendly and service is excellent.

Beautiful location but grumpy staff/terrible food
Posted 19 Jul 2019 on HotelsThe place has an amazing location and a wonderful bar/restaurant/swimming pool area. The partly negative review is due to some of the staff being impolite/rude/not service minded at all (some grumpy older men in the bar) and which destroyed some of the atmosphere. The daily manager tried his best, being extremely nice and helpful, but unfortunately he did not compensate for some of the less friendly staff. Another thing was the food- which was a total catastrophe. It took a long time to get the food and when it came it was most of the time cold (and tasteless). On a couple of occasions we asked the staff to warm it - but it came back still cold! We gave up and ate cold food most of the time. It’s a pity because the place has such a potential

Beautiful spot on the river. They offer adorable self-catering prices which is refreshing. Showers were hot and food from the restaurant was good. The camp is a bit old and is currently under construction to update many parts of the camp.

Was great in terms of being right on the Luangwa River with lots of Hippos and crocs visible all day, close to the park entrance, elephants, giraffes and antelope walking in the field/bush in front of our Chalet (#3) during the day and night, was a great Zambian wildlife experience. Chalet was definitely a bit rough living (but we expected that), hard beds, ants and mice and even a baboon came inside and stole our bananas off the counter while we had our backs turned making tea, but that was part of the enjoyable experience. The chalet kitchen had all the basics so we cook most of our own meals. Mozi nets were in good condition, but did not need this time of year. Overall we loved the experience (my Dad and I) and it was a step up from tenting.

The place to be!!!!
Posted 30 May 2019 on HotelsOur stay was lovely, we were in the eco tent which is perfect: comfortable beds and space. Common bathroom/toilet very clean and close to the tent (but not too close!). Very friendly staff and awesome location.
