A stay in spaces within the Mutota Forest Villa is guaranteed to have you transcend the exceptional and enjoy the best of inspired luxury

Nestled within a quiet corner on the grounds of the boutique Mbano Manor hotel at the edge of Victoria Falls town, the Mutota Forest Villa stands tall as a beacon of unparalleled luxury and tranquillity. Sleeping a maximum of six people, this exclusive Villa reimagines the concept of opulent living, offering discerning guests an unparalleled retreat within a private luxury home as part of your “Best in Africa” safari holiday.

A natural corridor of large teak trees and bushes defines the entrance to the Villa, whether you opt to arrive via the private Villa entrance gate or walk down the forest paths from the main hotel. You can also opt to fly in from the airport via helicopter, landing only a few hundred metres from the private Villa entrance within a few minutes after having taken the flight.

As you step into the realm of the Mutota Forest Villa, you are greeted by an aura of quiet sophistication and understated elegance, rolled on over 200 metres of living space and more than 700 square metres of private gardens. The living space is surrounded by a spacious wrap-around veranda encompassing three sides of the Villa, with each of the six interior spaces overlooking the forest gardens.

Design elements that exude excellence

The Villa architecture is sublime. A blend of modern luxury, simple cement walls and floors, high open ceilings, framed by extra-large teak doors, windows boasting traditional shutters, offering a setting reminiscent of fine country living. Throughout the Mutota Forest Villa, an enchanting ambiance captivates the senses, delighting guests with tranquillity, and inviting them to unwind while indulging in ultimate relaxation.

The heart of Mutota Forest Villa lies in its expansive living areas, where guests can gather and unwind in style. The interior spaces are meticulously appointed, with every detail thoughtfully curated to ensure maximum comfort and indulgence. While outdoors, the all-enveloping veranda offers the perfect setting for al fresco dining or simply basking under the warm African sun.

Defining the master bedroom is a showstopping king-sized bed suite, with comfortable couch and lush finishes. Then step into the adjoining extra-long master bathroom suite of magnificence, where guests are enveloped in luxury notes, from a spacious double shower, claw bathtub, discreet toilet cubicle, and walk-in dressing room. Sheer opulence. Plus, you can also enjoy a large enclosed outdoor garden courtyard with two open-air showers.

The second bedroom has its private entrance, and is a twin-bedded self-contained unit, complete with a bath suite. The double sleeper-couch in the lounge offers additional comfort and convenience, creating an ideal sleeping arrangement for families travelling with children, adventurous teens, or young adults, or alternatively for the honeymoon couple, or those just celebrating life’s finest moments.

For day comfort, the double lounge area is fitted with plush furnishings and tasteful decor, providing the perfect setting for intimate conversations and shared moments of laughter and joy. Those seamlessly blending work and play will appreciate the convenience of a corner desk to catch up on that pervasive but important work email.

In the Villa’s dining room, an elegant oak table seats six people, complemented by a mini-server unit. Furthermore, the Villa’s all-inclusive package includes a dedicated chef and butler service, who deliver memorable culinary and service experiences featuring the flavours of Africa’s local and classic cuisine.

The Villa’s crowning experiential jewel is the sparkling plunge pool, a water oasis where guests can immerse in cool, soothing water that’s surrounded by gardens in privacy and seclusion.

As the sun sets with a rainbow over Victoria Falls, retreat to the Mutota Forest Villa at Mbano Manor Hotel.
