In fact, the hotel is so close to the action that when the Falls are in full flood, the spray can be seen from the hotel, hence the name ‘Sprayview’.

Convenient in-room amenities include air-conditioning, Wi-Fi, satellite television, tea and coffee making facilities, personal safes, hairdryers and universal plugs.

Alfresco dining beside the large swimming pool on mild evenings, with the Falls thundering in the background, is an experience to remember. One of the best Victoria Falls hotels for business travellers, Cresta Sprayview Hotel boasts a business centre with state-of-the-art conference facilities and Wi-Fi in all public areas. The two conferencing venues - The Green Room and The Think Tank - accommodate 80 delegates cinema style and 12 delegates boardroom style respectively.

With over 50 fantastic activities to choose from, there are plenty of ways to keep busy in Victoria Falls. A haven for adventure-enthusiasts, this resort town offers everything from white water rafting and bungee jumping, to zip-lining across the Batoka Gorge and river boarding down the Zambezi. For a more relaxing experience, opt for a leisurely river cruise, a helicopter flight over the Falls, a walk through the various curio markets, or a half-day canoe trip. Making it easy for guests to enjoy a guided or self-guided tour of the ‘Smoke That Thunders’, the hotel offers guests a complimentary shuttle service to and from the rainforest entrance at designated times.

Cresta Sprayview was established in 1968 by Gardini & Sons to provide affordable and yet comfortable accommodation for the weary traveller. The hotel was taken over by Cresta Hotels in 2013 and was completely remodelled to its modern present look.

Victoria Falls Activities:

Victoria Falls is known as the adventure capital of Africa, and for good reason! Through Cresta Sprayview, arrange almost 50 Victoria Falls activities, including helicopter flights, bungee jumping, golfing, white water rafting, and Zambezi River cruises.

One of the most famous activities in this tourist hub is bungee jumping from the iconic Victoria Falls Bridge, connecting Zimbabwe and Zambia across the Batoka Gorge. The jump is considered one of the most beautiful in the world and features 111m of pure adrenaline against the backdrop of the mighty Falls. Other white-knuckle activities include the Gorge Swing, Flying Fox and the Zip Line.

Another ‘must-do’ Victoria Falls activity to try is white water rafting. Rafting is done below the Victoria Falls along a section of the Zambezi River with some of the finest Grade 5 rapids on the planet. The ride is wet and wild, but offers an experience unlike anywhere else on earth.

A trip to Victoria Falls wouldn’t be complete without a relaxing cruise along the Zambezi River. Zambezi cruises are one of the most highly recommended Victoria Falls activities to do during your stay. During the dry season, they offer excellent game viewing from a unique vantage point. In the wet season, you are promised excellent birding and breath-taking sunsets.

Victoria Falls is also an ideal base from which to explore the many surrounding game reserves and national parks. Game viewing at Hwange National Park in the dry season is exceptional and you can look out for at least 4 of the Big 5, as well as cheetah, sable and wild dog. The abundant Chobe National Park in Botswana – just an hour’s drive away, and the nearby Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park in Zambia also offer great game viewing options.
