Accommodation

Toka Leya has a featherlight footprint on the environment. The airy and luxurious lounge, dining area, bar and pool deck, and 12 generous tented suites, are raised on wooden decks so as not to disturb the parade of wildlife. All offer wondrous views over the Zambezi River and the local hippos, crocs and elephants coming to drink. Three of the suites are family units with an extra bedroom.

Toka Leya’s impact

When we say we’re here for the wilderness, we mean it. That goes beyond giving you thrilling access to the Zambezi River, dramatic views of Victoria Falls, and intimate encounters with basking crocodiles or watchful hippos. This involves working hard to rehabilitate riverine woodland, developing pioneering energy-saving systems, recycling and upcycling.
