I loved the location, it was truly amazing seeing so many animals. The food was delicious and the staff were fantastic! I would not only recommend Msandile River lodge, i would happily come back and stay again.

We loved the spot. Next to the river with elephants passing by everyday. A nice pool to cool down. We had an excellent guide Longisana and all the other staff were great too. The food was delicious. We disnt bring USD but the manager was kind to change Euros for us. We will certainly book here when we come to Luangwa again. Great place!!

The location is right in Luangwa National Park on the shore of Msandile river. Elephants, baboons and hippos roamed around the property. I saw the Big Four and more on the first day. There were lots of animals in the park. The tent I was staying in was big and comfortable. It had two showers (indoor and outdoor), a bathroom, a big comfortable netted bed and other essential furniture. I was there in early October, and it would get a little hot there without an air conditioner during the day but I could hang around the pool or on the veranda of the main building. I was out of the tent most of the time, anyway, doing two safaris a day. The staff was extremely nice, the guide was great and knowledgeable, the cook was also very good. One night we asked for a Zambian meal and he made it. The lodge is run by a 100% Zambian crew, all young people under 35 years of age. They are doing a great job running this place.

The staff were wonderful and could not have been more helpful, kind, or professional. Lungi, the guide was superb, very knowledgeable, and we had some epic sightings. We loved the sundowners and drinks around the campfire. We felt like members of the family when we finally left. As vegetarians, we were handsomely catered for, which was a delight!

Excellent Value for money lodge very close to the South Luwangwe park.it was 1x our from the airport and a short bay ride across the river from the lodge. The guide , Isaac, was brilliant being so knowledgable on all flora and fauna.You have 2 game drives ( day & night) so great value. This is not a high luxury lodge but very functional at a very competitive cost.It made it a very authentic experience.

We had a great stay at Msandile. We stayed at one of the safari ensuite tents and the bed was very comfortable and everything very clean. The food is very nice, fresh and plenty. The owner (Chloe) is really making sure you have a great time. Isaac our guide is very experienced and we had great game drives, also crossing the river every time before the drive with all the hippos was a great experience. We would definitely recommend this place!

EVERYTHING! the place was beautiful and the views to the river (with animals crossing the river at all times) was amazing. Even an elephant approached to the lodge when we were having lunch (an experience I will always remember) the food was very tasty, the pool was essential (specially because it was really hot). game drives were very fun and informative (we saw all the animals!) the room is wonderful and the staff is always attentive and making sure you feel comfortable
