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.

Jambiani Beach is 400 metres from the lodge, while Jozani Forest is 26 km away.

My friends and I had a wonderful time at Sabali. First we stayed in another accommodation next to the beach which we didn't like that much but then we found Sabali. Very safe. Great rooms with AC and nice bathroom. Lots of sockets. Nice kitchen with big fridge. Wonderful pool right in front of my room. Beautiful garden. Quiet surroundings. Very relaxed and peaceful. On the upper floor you can find lots of space to relax but also to work remotely with a nice view over the village. 5min walk to the beach Most amazing team and puppy Marley. Great communication with the owner Tomas. Special thanks to Saleh who was always there to help me with anything. We became friends :) I will definitely come back to this wonderful place. Thank you

    It’s a good hotel for children and families. They have a Safari sister hotel in the Selous national park which was why we stayed there and that was FANTASTIC! The hotel in the national park is basic but clean and comfortable with a swimming pool, LOVELY staff and good food! The park and staff for the Safari were brilliant!

    Not just an accomondation. Super friendly and helpful manager and staff in an almost family environment make this place special. We were comfortable, enjoyed our time a lot and even stayed a day longer than planned. Food and drinks in the lodge own restaurant are amazing.

    Stunning location, beautiful lodges. Above and beyond service from Mauro and his team!!!! We accidentally left the painting in the lodge and Te came all the way to Pongwe and brought it back to us!!! Hands down, the best service we received in Zanzibar. Big thanks to Hawa for organising my birthday meal. Also, everyone must try a massage by Dora, she made me feel at easy and very relaxed.

    Beautiful view from the room we booked. Hotel has a guest manager who checks in on all guests, which is a nice touch. Hotel has 2 other hotels that they work with so they try to keep it interesting, with breakfast moving between the lodges. It's right on the beach so easy access to many restaurants and hotels in the area.. Water cooler for guests and glass bottle in room so you can refill water anytime you need, with the blazing heat in Zanzibar, this was a nice touch.
