Featuring a swimming pool, a garden, a terrace and views of the city, Sabali Lodge, Zanzibar is set in Jambiani and offers accommodation with free WiFi.

A balcony with pool views is offered in all units.

Great and a comfy stay! Will definitely be coming back! Location: the location is quite convenient. It’s right next to the main road going to Paje and 5-10 minutes walk away to the ocean. The building is in Jambiani village which is famous for its sweet, hospitable locals, and great beaches! Supermarkets and shops are all nearby. Check in: Thomas the owner who oversees things personally, was kind enough to arrange for an early check in despite the short notice. He’s easygoing and friendly to deal with. Easy and straightforward process. They accept cards without giving you the looks (many properties in Jambiani don’t happily accept cards). You can use Apple Pay or Samsung Pay. The place itself: this is a brand new building with great finishing. The owner takes pride in his trees and the villa is surrounded by greenery inside it. There’s a pool, kitchen with a big new fridge for guests to store food, shower facilities next to the pool. There’s also a terrace upstairs with huge area for people who wanna have some privacy or do calls or just relax. It offers a nice 360 view of the village on all sides. The rooms: the rooms are quite modern and they are practically designed and equipped with everything you want. The ac was working perfectly and it was a relief in hot afternoons and nights (many properties don’t have ac or it doesn’t work). Really comfy beds (probably the best bed and mattresses I slept on in Zanzibar), a safe which is quite handy, a little desk if you have work, big washroom with great water pressure, everything in the room was brand new and working fine. The internet: I had couple of meetings and was suffering from the poor internet in other proper I. The wifi really saved me. The experience: the owner who was also staying at the property is warm and makes sure to check in on you and see if you need anything (the stay itself, directions, restaurant recommendations, etc.

Boasting a garden, private pool and sea views, Jambiani Guest Lodge PEMBA is set in Jambiani. This beachfront property offers access to a terrace, pool at the pool table, free private parking and free WiFi. The property is allergy-free and is located a few steps from Jambiani Beach.

This place exceeded our expectations. Because they have only 3 rooms, this place is really calm and one can relax. We chose this lodge because of the kitchen and it was the best decision ever. It has everything needed to cook and we could prepare our meals during our stay. It felt like our home. We were also lucky as we were alone when we arrived and we were upgraded to the bigger room. It is absolutely luxurious. The lodge itself is beautiful and really good decorated. Moses, Osman and the rest of staff were really nice and helpful at all times. The breakfast is excepcional. Osman prepares the best omelette with veggies and crepes with chocolate. We loved our fruit salad as well. We were looking forward to this every morning! The lodge is located in the village, a couple of meters from the beach, and you can meet all locals here, they are all really welcoming. We would love to come back and we recommend this lodge to anyone that wants a private place in one of the most beautiful places in Zanzibar.

Supermarket (Paje) is 700 metres from the lodge, while Jozani Chwaka Bay National Park is 15 km from the property. The nearest airport is Abeid Amani Karume International, 35 km from Nakupenda paje villa, and the property offers a paid airport shuttle service.

The place is fantastic and very well organized. We were very surprised by the daily room cleaning and bed linen change. Great swimming pool, good breakfasts. A place really worth recommending.

Looking for a cabin?

For the active travellers, a chalet is a great mix of the outdoors and the snug inside. Usually fully furnished and self-catered, chalets are typically wooden and in the Alpine region of Europe, but can also be found elsewhere in the world. Characterised by their sloped roofs, chalets can be single units or separate apartments, and are ideal for skiing holidays.

    We were in room 9 and the water came through the spotlight (ceiling light) near our bed. It flooded the room and my baby’s cot should have been situated there. This is not ok! They knew they had water tanks in the roof space and they over filled. WATER AND ELECTRICITY DO NOT MIX. Lucky my baby was not above that light and lucky we were not electrocuted!! Also had loads of issues with the aircon. So had to be moved. If it was European hotel would have been shut down. If American would have been sued!

    Beautiful location, secluded but in front of the beach and close to many restaurants. Well decorated, the pool and the massage hut were truly inspiring.

    Fantastic property! Huge villa with private pool, volleball court and beach hut (with bedroom). Excellent service and communication with manager Callister. Houskeeping cleaning the villa perfectly every dag, extremely helpful and friendly. Gardener keeping the huge property beautiful. And a small group of masai keeping the property safe, always kind and attentive. Our group of 8 (two families with teenagers) could not have chosen a better place to stay.

    Beautifully kept and spotless resort with access directly onto the beach. We stayed at La Luna, which is the sister resort set back from Mwezi, which we actually thought had a nicer layout and cabins. Staff are super helpful and friendly. Good value for money.

    The swimming pool was fabulous, and the facilities were amazing - better than you could imagine or expect. The owner, Raphael, was exceptional at keeping in touch and responding to questions. The housekeeper, Issa, was so helpful and the taxi driver, Juma, (shuttle) couldn’t have been more friendly and accommodating. We felt a part of a family!

    Very nice place. Beautiful decorations, nice cabins, clean pool. They give you a welcome drink. Confortable beds, with mosquito nets. The owner was there the whole time, very nice guy, helped us in everything we needed. At the moment we were there, the value for money was very very good.

    EVERYTHING! The staff, the individual cabins, the food, the pools, the beach, the cleainess, and the list goes on and on. What a wonderful place to end a 3 1/2 week vacation to Tanzania. The games room was an added touch, as well. The decor was amazing, too! Seeing as it is a smaller facility, which is what we enjoy, the staff remembered your names. It was like your home away from home! You will not be disappointed with choosing this hotel.

    We loved our stay at the Mango Beach House! Our own little cabin right on the beach- it was a dream come true! Welcoming atmosphere, great staff and an inviting garden area with hammocks included :-) Also it’s locally owned. Our room was simple but clean.
