A good value lodge in Victoria Falls.
The Lodge is well located and easy to find. The check in was efficient and the staff friendly. The room was nice, clean and comfortable. The rooms are all quite close together so noise was an issue sometimes with some of the other guests.

We used the Bayete as a base for our 30th anniversary celebrations. They couldn’t have been more friendly and professional. Outstanding service all round, from housekeeping, front desk, catering, kitchen and gardening. Would highly recommend for Vic Falls and safari. Thank you to all the Bayete team for looking after us throughout our stay.

Bayete Is a wonderful place to stay. Rooms are big, very comfortable and private. The staff were very helpful and professional. The guest lodge is a hidden gem. Location is close to town and Victoria Falls, taxis are reasonable. Would definitely stay here again. Breakfast is included and the restaurant offers lunch and dinner at your cost.

Bayete guest lodge is an oasis in Victoria Falls. The spacious guest houses are surrounded by lush gardens with a nice pool and lovely open air restaurant and bar. The staff goes out of their way to be helpful and they are so friendly and ready to share information about their culture. We had a hard time deciding between Bayete and Victoria Falls hotel but after visiting the hotel during our three days in Victoria Falls we are so glad that we chose Bayete. Victoria Falls hotel is very pretty but also quite formal. The relaxed atmosphere of Bayete was more our style.

The staff were so friendly and helpful. They went above and beyond. I want to especially thank Allen and Norma. Every single staff meme we smiled and said hello. The rooms were made up twice a day with mosquito nets in the evening and it was put away during the day. The food was excellent for breakfast, lunch and dinner. It is located within 5 minutes drive of Victoria falls. Really peaceful. Very safe town. Loved our stay there. One of the nicest places we have stayed in around the world.

Great location for a stay near Victoria Falls on the Zimbabwe side! The staff was always super friendly and willing to be of help or assistance in any way possible. I needed to check out a bit later and they were understanding and very kind about it as I was rushing back a bit late from an outing around check out time. The room was very comfortable and even had a supply of bug repellant spray and lotion. The breakfast and meals were great. Anywhere you need to go requires a taxi and a charge every time which is fine though does get pricey every time you want to go somewhere. Overall enjoyed my stay and would stay once again!

Bayete Guest Lodge was in a nice and convenient area. Although we never walked anywhere, places near by were walkable distance. The check in was super easy, the staff was incredibly friendly, and if the weather would've been better, we would've loved using the big pool. We also ate breakfast every morning and dinner twice at the lodge because it was great food and there were many options.

The gardens are very beautiful..the staff are very warm and friendly. The food is okay- the menu for both dinner and breakfast is very limted..in fact thr breakfast didnt change at all in my 4 night stay. There were lot of mosquitos but the hotel offers repellent lotion and the bed had a net- though i noted a lot of holes on my bed net. The hotel helps with arranging taxis and activities- their very helpful. Overall its a pleasent place to stay.
