Well positioned location that feels like smack dab in the middle of nowhere but only 10 to 15 minutes to all the good stuff. Catherine amd the entire staff are exceptionally warm, welcome amd accommodating. The food options are top notch quality. Bar had a range of options. You really cannot go wrong with this place at a pretty reasonable price. The luxury chalets are worth the extra of you are willing to go overbudget a bit.

I truly loved this lodge that is located in the middle of the safari. Upon entering the lodge, I passed a herd of elephants in the middle of the road. There are signs around the lodge indicating the rhinos in the area, as well. The chalet, which was like a tiny house, was decorated beautifully. The staff was extremely helpful, and they assist you with booking excursions you can enjoy. Van drivers come to get you to take you to your excursions.

Maramba Lodge was a wonderful place to end our time in Zambia! The staff is so friendly and the lodge and its grounds are beautiful! We went for a game drive and on a guided tour of the falls (organized by the lodge) which were amazing and affordable. Even saw elephants and hippos from the property! We would definitely recommend this lodge and we hope to return soon! Also, I want to give a shout out to Lubinda, who was very gracious, patient and easy to work with!

Maramba was a stopover as part of my drive to South Africa. Although only here for one night, the accommodation was comfortable and the grounds were lovely. I saw a lot of birds, a crocodile and an elephant while sitting on the deck by the river. I had not expected that much wildlife. Katherine at check-in was helpful and amazing. She gets 5 stars. The wait staff at the restaurant was a little slow - I think they might have been understaffed. And the outdoor shower had not been swept when the staff came in for turn down service (which was an unexpected treat). I would come again!

We really enjoyed staying in this lodge. The little chalet was cosy and staff very helpful. The bar is located right at the river and we enjoyed watching a hippo grazing in the water. Breakfast was great. The restaurant is located right at the Maramba River, too. It is spacious and gives good views of the wildlife as well.

The whole place is well maintained and very clean. Staff were very helpful and polite. The main dining room overlooks the Maramba river and has a huge outdoor balcony area. There weren’t too many mosquitoes and plenty of spray is on hand. Overall it is a lovely resort with quick access to the Falls.

The fact that animals are on the grounds is cool. We saw a hippo on our second night there, it was scary but awesome.

A beautiful, peaceful location along the Maramba River. Very clean, very professional, inside the elephant corridor—we got to see a family of elephants feeding right outside the fence! The restaurant food was absolutely delicious. We sat outside as the sunset each evening, where we saw hippos, crocodiles and monkeys, lulled by the soft accompaniment of frogs and wildlife sounds. My daughter and I stayed 3 nights in a luxury tent—very clean, comfortable beds draped with mosquito netting, and a warm water outdoor shower made it extra special.

Super war, dass man von der Terasse vorm Zelt direkt in den Busch guckt, oft Tiere sieht und hört. Auch von der Pool/ Bar Terasse aus haben wir täglich Tiere gesehen, auch Hippos und größere Gruppen Elefanten sehr nah. Nachts passt das Security Personal auf, dass es keine Zusammenstöße zwischen Gästen und Tieren gibt. Der Poolbereich ist gemütlich und im Restaurant kann man gut essen, mit Aussicht über den Fluss. Das Personal war immer sehr freundlich und bemüht. Wir waren sehr zufrieden.
