In 2025, refurbishments will begin at Holiday Inn Harare, Elephant Hills Resort in Victoria Falls, Troutbeck Timeshare Lodges in Nyanga, with the second phase of renovations at The Victoria Falls Hotel.
These refurbishments will result in a reduction of rooms and will affect the 2025 financial year results.
