Sazani Beach Lodge and Tidal Lounge
Off the beaten track, Sazani is a six-room lodge above a secluded cove on the quiet, east-facing side of the Nungwi peninsula — 15 minutes from Nungwi village and Kendwa, with an exclusive beach and lagoon directly below. Once our familys beach house, it has welcomed travellers since 1996 and still runs like a home rather than a hotel.
All rooms have en-suite bathrooms, traditional four-poster beds, fans, and furniture made from reclaimed dhow wood,in a tropical garden with paths down to the beach. Tidal Lounge — our bar and dining space overlooking the ocean — serves breakfast, set-menu dinners, and drinks, with free WiFi for guests. Our food is sourced locally and responsibly, and our meals combine Zanzibar spice island cuisine with inspiration from our familys travels.
We have solar back-up power and are sustainably run: no pool (fresh water is scarce on the island — the ocean, beach, and low-tide sandbanks are steps away), no AC (rooms are built to catch the sea breeze), drinking water filtered and served in glass, minimal plastic. Guests choose Sazani for the view, the quiet, and the small team who look after them — the resort strip is nearby when you want it.
The hotel day starts from hour 12:00 and ends at 11:00.
Please note that the deposit must be paid by bank transfer. Credit cards are an accepted method of payment at the property.
Sazani is rustic by design and run by a small team. There is no pool, no AC, and no TV — this is a place for tides, stars, and unhurried days. Zanzibars grid experiences load shedding; our solar system covers the essentials, and when the lights dim, we recommend the night sky. If youre looking for a resort, were happily not it. If youre looking for quiet, welcome home.Please inform in advance of your expected arrival time. You can use the Special Requests box when booking, or contact the property directly with the contact details provided in your confirmation.
