Pioneers, Victoria Falls has been designed and decorated in keeping with the name of the lodge, and is known for its large, restful open spaces. The entrance to the lodge is cool and welcoming, with a unique visitors’ bathroom that always creates a lot of comments
The lodge is situated in the suburbs of Victoria Falls city, just over 3.5 kilometres walk from the mighty falls themselves.

Pioneers is very dedicated to conservation and preservation of the environment and are also committed to being Environmentally Friendly. Carefully placed solar panels are used to harness the power of the sun and covert it to clean energy. Although not totally off the grid yet, most of the lodge runs off solar energy, backed up by generator and mains power as a contingency. They are also trying to limit single use plastic so have installed a water filtration system, and all drinking water in the rooms is served in thermos flasks. Pioneers also supports local wildlife charities in aid of conservation, anti-poaching, essential research and anti-litter projects, all of which operate in the Victoria Falls region.
