NEW STAR ON ZIMBABWE BORDER: VICTORIA FALLS RIVER LODGE


In a move that signifies the positive changes in Zimbabwe, five-star Victoria Falls River Lodge opened its doors in April 2012. This is the first luxury lodge to open in several years and the first private game lodge to be set in Zimbabwe’s Zambezi National Park. The boutique lodge is built on the banks of the mighty Zambezi River, and is close enough to Victoria Falls to see the spray of the “Smoke that Thunders.”

With uninterrupted panoramic views of African sunsets, each of the seven luxury tents’ locations is carefully chosen for its own unique views of the river and for the surrounding trees that provide maximum privacy (three of the tents are suitable for families). Sit back on your private deck and spot one of the 415 bird species recorded in the park – or opt for in-room massage, manicure and pedicure services.

Designer and co-owner, Amanda Bosch, envisioned and outlined the layout of Victoria Falls River Lodge in the sand on site – the location chosen because of her affection for a particular dead Leadwood tree and its beautiful color. In fact, a dead Leadwood tree is incorporated in every room.

Amanda’s vision became a crescent-shaped lodge (with no sharp edges) set in front of a towering Baobab tree and back from the river to encourage elephants to keep their natural evening route as smaller game graze in front on the lawn. The main lodge has an open plan design with a beautiful thatched roof and allows guests to easily migrate from the lounge to the bar to the dining area within the structure.

As a five-star lodge, fine dining is made possible by a Blue Ribbon designed kitchen. Bruce Bromberg, American celebrity chef, personally designed the space, continuing his nature of setting culinary trends and igniting passions. He is most noted as a founder of Blue Ribbon Restaurant Group, which has accumulated a slew of awards from top US publications for the past decade. Victoria Falls River Lodge’s menu caters to all tastes and includes a variety of local traditional dishes prepared by its expert Zimbabwean Chef.

In this remote location, you have two safari options: river cruise along the Zambezi or the ultimate bush experience within the expansive park where you are located. A safari by water is a perspective not many have the opportunity to experience – and the closest you may get to a hippo in the wild. Or, explore the 150,000 acres that make up Zambezi National Park and track the elephant herds as they move silently through the bush (by car or on foot). And, because the lodge is so close to Victoria Falls and the bridge that connects Zimbabwe and Zambia, the activity options of a typical safari lodge are doubled. Choices include rafting, the bungee jump, bridge swing, canoeing the Zambezi wine route, tours of the Falls, helicopter flights, a boma dinner experience (sample some local Mopani Worms), village tours, sunset steam train trip and a guided tour of the town of Victoria Falls (note: some activities may be an additional cost).

Then return back to the spacious lodge for a dip in the swimming pool or a nap on the relaxation deck. Victoria Falls River Lodge is child-friendly with special activities and tours for children, as well as the option of child minding services. Children are invited to participate in local activities like grass weaving, bread-making and fishing. And, family tents offer an additional tented room, with one single and one double bunk bed, allowing three children to sleep comfortably. (Children 0-3 years old are accommodated at no extra cost, but are not permitted on game drives.)

Known for its many years of turmoil, Zimbabwe has opened up to the world as an up-and-coming destination. Its economy is on the upswing, especially since it now has the US dollar as its currency. And, Zimbabwe’s government has identified the revival of tourism as a factor for its economy, and is focusing on the tourism sector with renewed fervor.

The parks have not been visited in depth for some time, and are waiting to be explore once again (notably, Hwange National Park, Mana Pools National Park and Matusadona National Park). And remember, Zimbabwe’s side has the best view of the Falls when water levels are low. To top it off, Zimbabwe has always had the best guides, with the continent’s most stringent regulations to gain a guiding license. Your safari guide will make or break your experience, so ensure it’s a great one by going to Zimbabwe.

Rates for Victoria Falls River Lodge start at $435 per person sharing per night and include a daily choice of game drives in Zambezi National Park or a sunset river cruise, bird watching on Kandahar Island, access to the Tree Hide, daily transfers to Victoria Falls town, a tour of the Falls, meals, local beverages and transfers to/from Victoria Falls Airport.

MONASTERO SANTA ROSA BECOMES PREFERRED SUPPLIER OF LUXURY TRAVEL NETWORK VIRTUOSO®




CONCA DEI MARINI, Italy-  Monastero Santa Rosa, a luxurious new boutique hotel and spa built into a Cliffside above Conca dei Marini on the Amalfi Coast of Italy, has become a preferred supplier to leading luxury travel network Virtuoso. This by-invitation-only organization comprises over 320 agencies with more than 7,200 elite travel specialists in 20 countries in North and South America, the Caribbean, Australia and New Zealand, as well as over 1,000 of the world’s best travel providers and premier destinations.

Monastero Santa Rosa opened in May of 2012, and immediately became a sought-after destination.

Built into the side of a mountain with floors connected by a glass-fronted elevator affording panoramic views, the hotel seems to float over the coastline from a rock base on the edge of a cliff which plunges into the depths of the Gulf of Salerno. Originally a 17th century monastery, the building was restored to honor its roots.  Both the exterior and the interior maintain the asceticism of the property, offset by warm and inviting contemporary design within.

The Amalfi Coast boasts the most beautiful vistas in the world, and Monastero Santa Rosa takes full advantage of them with 20 sea view guest rooms and suites, a full-service spa, a heated infinity pool, beautiful gardens, and a special herb garden, all situated over five terraced levels. Each room is named after one of the historical herbs still grown at the property site.

The pièce de résistance of the hotel is its extraordinary Spa.  The Spa designer kept intact the original 17th century vaulted ceilings and many of its rustic walls in order to maintain the intriguing character of the original rooms.  The unique experience here may only be described as a journey, an event distinguished by the monastery’s authenticity combined with the amenities of a modern spa.

Travel and tourism make up one of the largest industries on the planet, employing more than 260 million people worldwide and generating nearly ten percent of global GDP. Virtuoso is proud to be a member of the World Travel & Tourism Council, which works to raise awareness of the importance of this industry. Monastero Santa Rosa is proud to be a preferred supplier of Virtuoso.

TONGABEZI PUTS ON THE DOG WITH NEWLY-BUILT, SUPER-DELUXE CHALET ON THE ZAMBEZI RIVER


LIVINGSTONE, Zambia- Tongabezi, an eco-luxe safari lodge on the Zambezi River upstream of Victoria Falls, announces a brand-new luxury chalet, with the working name “Dog House,” slated to open in early June of this year. Aside from luxurious appointments, the new chalet is luxuriously large – 3,875 square feet!

(Sadly, the former Dog House suffered a fire last year and was razed. The quirky name resulted from a portion of its proceeds helping to save the Wild Dog, one of Africa’s most endangered species).  

Beautifully sited on the Zambezi River, the “Dog House” comprises two very large bedrooms, a dining/living area between the bedrooms, a double-sided fireplace and a small, infinity plunge pool edging the river.  Because the bedrooms are raised nine feet, they appear to be floating over the water. Rooms are air conditioned, but guests who prefer the open air can pull back the glass sliding doors.  The “Dog House” can be used as a two-bedroom suite or, by closing off one bedroom, as a one-bedroom suite.  Like all the houses at Tongabezi, the new chalet comes with a valet.

Tongabezi’s managing director Ben Parker and his designer Christie Halsted came up with the concept for the new House. It is being built by Schlomo Hanoni and his team (the same team that rebuilt sister property Sindabezi in 2010).  “Building beside a river is no mean feat,” says Parker, “because at certain times of the year, the river rises.  It’s a constant battle to get the infrastructure into the ground, before it’s flooded out.”  As one consultant to Tongabezi put it when the builder succeeded in getting ahead of a rising river, “Zambezi – 0; Tongabezi – 1”.

In keeping with Tongabezi’s “green” ethos, the timber is supplied from sustainable forests in the Copper belt near Ndola.
Still and sparkling water is bottled through the Vivreau system (saving 20,000 plastic bottles and 2,000 tin cans every year). All water used is run through a purification plant and used for irrigation.

All-inclusive rates are $620 per person per night in low season, $720 per person per night in high season. Inclusions:  accommodations, meals, drinks and house wine, laundry service and most activities. Exclusions:  international airfare; premium-brand drinks, sparkling wine, liqueurs.

NEW SPA TREATMENTS AT MONASTERO SANTA ROSA FEATURE THE SOOTHING PROPERTIES OF MANUKA HONEY



CONCA DEI MARINI, Italy- Monastero Santa Rosa (MSR), the ultra-luxe hotel on the Amalfi Coast, is introducing a new body treatment and a new facial in its extraordinary Spa for the 2013 season.  In addition to featuring the sublime oils, creams and lotions of Santa Maria Novella, the new products will incorporate Manuka Honey, a special honey from the crisp white flowers of the Manuka bush found in remote areas of New Zealand.  Ideal for healing and soothing, these honeys have a unique antibacterial activity not found in most honeys.

The Aloe Coulis Body Wrap is especially beneficial for sun-exposed skin and for the release of tension caused by heat.  Cooling marble stones are placed over the face and soothing Manuka Honey is applied all over the body. Nurturing Aloe Gel is slathered on beneath a gentle body wrap to enable the aloe to work its magic.  Compresses of natural salts and chamomile further relieve the skin of stress. At the same time, crushed ice eye presses with a floral fragrance help massage away tenseness.  The Aloe Coulis Body Wrap lasts 60 minutes and is €120.

Restoring Aloe Refresh stimulates and enlivens facial skin with a delicate touch. A Manuka Honey polish hydrates with antibacterial and brightening properties.  The Santa Maria Novella products, created especially for damaged skin, help restore energy to the complexion.  Calming Camomile eye presses and a deep contouring facial massage create a perfect resolution to several skin concerns.  Restoring Aloe Refresh is a 75 minute facial and is €140.

The Spa, like the hotel, is an excellent example of adaptive re-use:  it has been built within a 17th century monastery*, preserving the vaulted ceilings, ancient walls, and exquisite architectural details of the historic building. Throughout the conversion of the space, the goal was to draw upon the convent’s unique character – not to follow a pre-determined formula that a branded spa would impose upon the space.  A focus on enhancing the ‘integrity of place’ allowed the building to show what suited it best. Thus, spaces were joined together to form a seamless flow.

The Spa is designed for extraordinary experiences and suffused with a spiritual dimension in keeping with the building’s heritage. The Italian tradition of bathing within a series of thermal rooms is re-created within the Spa.

Thermal Suite, a sequence of historic monastic spaces interconnecting the various warm rooms via arched openings, comprises:
  • A double-heighted, vaulted Tepidarium with pomegranate-infused foot spas and heated mosaic loungers
  • Aromatic Steam Room
  • Rock Sauna
  • Crushed Ice Fountain to refresh between thermal bathing
  • Hydro Pool
  • Emotion Showers. 

Spa Suite, an exceptional private double suite (a Spa within a Spa), boasting a magnificent
861-square-feet double-heighted vaulted space includes:
  • Rasul
  • Steam Room
  • Double Wet and Dry Treatment Couches
  • Manicure/Pedicure Relaxation Lounge
  • Private Dressing and Grooming Space
  • Garden Terrace
 
Outdoor treatments are available under the shade of a pergola within the privacy of the Treatment Garden or within a single Treatment Room.

Santa Maria Novella treatments draw upon the ancestral traditions dating back to the 14th century of Italian monastic herbalists, who used local plants and flowers renowned for their healing powers. Treatments range from Santa Maria Novella facials (including back facials and facials for men) to honey hair and scalp treatments, and from massages, aromatic scrubs and wraps to manicures and pedicures. Prices vary depending on the selection, but an average 60-minute treatment costs €120. Some additional treatments:

Candle Massage uses an aromatic powder scrub of iris or bitter orange to soften and prepare the skin for a deeply-focused, relaxing massage with Santa Maria Novella candle wax made of pure plant oils and prime emollient butters.

Iris Drizzle Hydrating Body Wrap Warm iris oil is drizzled on to the body and blended with iris powder.  The idrasol body mask deeply enriches the skin during a scalp massage and layers in moisture and fragrance.

Polline Hydration Deep hydration with Crema Polline, a regenerating cream formulated with pollen and extra virgin olive oil to improve the appearance of a flat, dry, non-reflective surface and to inject skin lustre.

Amalfi Blue offers no fewer than 3 3/4 hours of treatments – Pomegranate Foot Bathing; a 60-minute Santa Maria Novella facial; Aromatic Powder Scrub and Spa Life Massage for 60 minutes; and a choice of a Manicure or Pedicure treatment.

The aromatics of Santa Maria Novella range from summery oils of lemon, bergamot, petitgrain and iris to such sweet-smelling herbs as rosemary, lavender, sweet orange as well as the special fragrance of pomegranate created for Catherine di Medici. 

The Spa is open seven days a week from 9 am until 7:30 pm.

Email bookings:  spa@monasterosantarosa.com

*In the English language, “monastery” usually refers to a building for monks.  But the broad sense of “monastery,” used by Italians, refers to a community of people, whether male or female, bound by vows to a religious life.

ARCHITECTURE OF AFRICA’S MOST ICONIC SAFARI HOUSE INSPIRES NEW ORGANIC INTERIORS

Interiors of the extraordinary Neil Rocher-designed Chongwe River House, chosen Best Safari House in Africa by Good Safari Guides in both 2011 and 2012, have been refurbished by a creative team led by Gillie Lightfoot, the well-regarded visionary behind Zambia’s Tribal Textiles and Jackal and Hide. Lightfoot’s focus for the new look was “hand-designed, beautifully crafted and organic interiors …specifically inspired by the unique design of Chongwe House and its surroundings.”

To realize this vision, Lightfoot pulled together a small design team of artists she has worked with over the past 10 years:  Abi James of Soul Design (who recruited Riaan Chambers); Nicola Swynnerton of Nzito Furniture; and Suzie Lightfoot of Katundu.

Perhaps the most dramatic feature of the re-imagined interiors is a stunning chandelier suspended above the main dining room area, sourced by Abi James and created by Riaan Chambers.  This statement piece, fashioned from recycled glass, resembles a cascading waterfall.  It draws the eye and, when the breezes blow through the house, the soft tinkle of glass and the sound of plashing water from the indoor fountain combine to make charming background music.

For larger pieces, such as wooden dressers and outdoor chairs, Nicola Swynnerton of Nzito Furniture commissioned local Zambian carpenters to craft hand-made, contemporary pieces from recycled wood taken from old fishing boats and dhows that have finished their life at sea

The color scheme now incorporates greens and teal blues, and each room has its own unique palette. Suzie Lightfoot’s Malawi-based company, Katundu, supplied much of the soft upgrade that includes hand-produced and ethically traded bedspreads, cushions and lampshades embellished with glass beads, shells and natural seeds. 



To ensure that all corners of the house are intriguing, Gillie Lightfoot added many touches such as commissioning a six-foot mobile wall hanging and juxtaposing wild wood, horn, hand-painted tribal textiles, leather and metal.

The front deck has been extended to create a functional, casual space that has become the center of activity at the House. Guests relish relaxing on a chaise longue or curling up on a sofa with a cold beverage while drinking in the view that has made Chongwe famous.

ROBIN POPE SAFARIS ANNOUNCE THE SHOEBILL SAFARI: THE ULTIMATE “BUSH & BIRDS” EXPERIENCE IN THE ZAMBIAN WILD


One of Africa’s legendary safari companies, Robin Pope Safaris (RPS), has launched a six-night SHOEBILL SAFARI that comprises stays in RPS’ Nkwali Camp in the South Luangwa National Park, the Shoebill Camp in the remote Bangweulu Wetlands and at Wasa Camp in Kasanka National Park, famous for its annual bat migration and known as one of Zambia’s best birding destinations, inhabited by no fewer than 457 different species. Guests will be under the wing of acclaimed safari guide Jacob Shawa.

Rates (based on a minimum of four and a maximum of six guests) start at US$4350 per person, sharing, and include everything except Visa, airport departure taxes and international flights.

Ornithologists rank the SHOEBILL as one of the five most desirable birds in Africa.   It can stand as high as five feet tall.  Its bill is as big as a boot, and its wingspan can reach eight feet.  Ancient Egyptians depicted it; ancient Arabs referred to it as abu markub, or one with a shoe. Some scientists claim it is the “missing link” between storks and pelicans.  Stork or pelican, this blue-gray “statue-like” bird resembles a creature from Alice in Wonderland (or possibly from The Black Lagoon).

But it’s not just their strange, alien looks; it’s their voices, too.  Shoebills are known to moo like a cow; whine like a persistent kid at a candy store, and clatter their bills during nesting season.  The sound of young birds begging for food is “uncannily like human hiccups.”  Loners, Shoebills typically forage in muddy waters and spread out from each other (sometimes as far as 66 feet), the way people unconsciously step apart in an elevator. To see these wonderful creatures and many other exotic birds and wildlife species, book THE SHOEBILL SAFARI with Robin Pope Safaris.
