Malachite House - Self Catering - Victoria Falls

Stay Together, Stay Comfortable at Malachite House

Introduction

Malachite House is a peaceful, self-catering retreat nestled in the leafy residential suburbs of Victoria Falls. Perfect for families, couples, or small groups, the property consists of two comfortable apartment-style buildings set in a beautifully maintained garden teeming with birdlife.

The property offers two accommodation options: a spacious three-bedroom, two-bathroom house, and a charming two-bedroom, two-bathroom cottage, both designed with comfort and functionality in mind. Open-plan living areas, fully equipped kitchens, and shaded verandas provide all the comforts of home, while the quiet setting offers a welcome escape from the bustle of town.

Whether you rent the House, the Cottage, or the entire property exclusively, Malachite House provides an ideal base for exploring Victoria Falls while enjoying space, privacy and flexibility.

Our Opinion

Malachite House is an excellent choice for those seeking relaxed, well-equipped self-catering accommodation in Victoria Falls. The peaceful gardens, quality furnishings, and thoughtful layout make this a real home-away-from-home. It's particularly suitable for families or groups travelling together, and the option to rent the entire property offers both space and seclusion. As with most suburban accommodation in Vic Falls, guests will need to drive or use taxis to get into town or to the Falls, but the tranquillity more than makes up for it.
