Anantara Stanley & Livingstone Hotel has unveiled two new Pool Suites and a Spa Gazebo, enhancing its safari and wellness offering in the Victoria Falls Private Game Reserve.
Set within 4,500 hectares of protected wilderness, the boutique retreat combines safari adventure, intimate luxury and access to one of the world’s most celebrated natural landmarks.
Located just minutes from Victoria Falls, the hotel offers guests guided game drives, walking safaris and wildlife experiences alongside contemporary accommodation in the African bush.
The addition of the two Pool Suites introduces a new accommodation category designed for privacy and direct connection with the surrounding reserve.
Set at either end of the lodge for added seclusion, each suite opens through wide glass doors onto a private veranda, where a new pool provides a place to relax between safari experiences.
Framed by gardens alive with birdlife, the setting allows guests to observe wildlife including elephants, rhino and antelope moving through the reserve, with occasional cheetah sightings adding to the sense of theatre.
The new pools transform the suites into the hotel’s most elevated accommodation category, suited to solo travellers, honeymooners and nature lovers.
Guests can also arrange food and beverage service from 1871 Restaurant for relaxed dining on their private terrace.
The new Spa Gazebo introduces a dedicated wellness space within the gardens.
Located close to the pool and shaded by mature trees, the Spa Gazebo has been designed to frame views of the protected landscape while bringing birdsong and the scents of the natural world into the treatment experience.
The design draws inspiration from Zimbabwean traditions, using natural textures and thatch detailing that reflect the surrounding terrain.
Inside, two treatment beds and private shower facilities allow couples, friends or family members to enjoy treatments together.
Signature rituals use products from TheraNaka, a premium South African brand known for ethical, cruelty-free and community-supporting practices.
The Spa Gazebo is also open to visitors in Victoria Falls seeking a massage in a serene garden setting.
The additions further enhance a guest journey that combines two of Africa’s most sought-after experiences in one destination.
Days can begin with guided game drives through the private reserve in search of wildlife, while walking safaris offer a closer connection to the landscape and its biodiversity.
Guests can also take part in a rhino conservation experience before enjoying a bush dinner beneath the stars.
Beyond the reserve, Victoria Falls lies just minutes away, where guided explorations reveal the geological drama, cultural significance and natural beauty of the landmark.
Together, the new Pool Suites and Spa Gazebo strengthen Anantara Stanley & Livingstone’s position as a boutique safari retreat, blending wildlife, wellness and luxury in the heart of the wilderness.
