Sazani Beach Lodge and Tidal Lounge

On Zanzibar’s Nungwi coast, a beach lodge just a short taxi from the lively Nungwi strip. Minutes from Mnarani Natural Aquarium and Nungwi Beach, with Kendwa Beach a short drive away. Pet-friendly and family-friendly, perfect for beach lovers and kite surfers.

Feel like a castaway in ten Swahili-style bungalows with coconut thatch roofs set in a tropical garden. Rooms offer sea-view furnished balconies, memory-foam beds and rainfall showers, with a sandy path down to a secluded stretch of beach. The lodge promotes a sustainability ethos and relaxed, locally styled décor.

Private beach access, a rooftop terrace and garden set the scene for sea-breeze mornings. Onsite: a beachfront restaurant and bars, communal living room, fitness center, bicycles to rent, diving club and kite-surfing access, massage room, BBQ area and tour desk. Complimentary wireless internet keeps you connected.

Free self parking and a 24-hour front desk. Shuttle and roundtrip airport transfers available for a surcharge, plus laundry and concierge services to handle logistics.

A complimentary local-cuisine breakfast is served daily (morning hours). The beachfront restaurant serves cooked-to-order meals with alfresco dining, and there are bar and beach-bar options plus limited room service.
