What to Expect
Army Shalets sits on the banks of the Zambezi outside Victoria Falls, and reviewers come mostly for the setting and the braai. Dani (June 2019) described a restaurant and bar with a “big terrace in front of the Zambezi River” and a grill that's “always fired”, whether guests order food or bring their own meat.
Diane (January 2023) found the bar “well priced and fully stocked” and the staff friendly, but warned that Sundays get very busy for anyone wanting quiet. Army Shalets also has self-catering chalets for an overnight stay.

Great local place where one can have a delicious food and a refreshing drink. The place has a restaurant and bar, and a big terrace in front of the Zambezi River, perfect for a drink during sunset.
★★★★☆
We absolutely loved our stay. The units are clean and tidy. Bar is great, well priced and fully stocked. Staff are so friendly. It was peaceful along the Zambezi. Highly recommend for a stay. If you want quiet, do not go on a Sunday. It is very very busy.
★★★★☆
Enjoyed the place. Our stay there was great. The chalets are great with the beds and self catering only had no hot water in the shower but it was squeaky clean. Will visit there for a family vacation.
