We stayed at Sea View Lodge for a week and, while the location is undeniably great – right on the beach and close to everything in Jambiani – our overall experience was mixed. The food was fresh and did improve slightly each day, but the menu was repetitive and quickly became monotonous. For a week-long stay, we expected more variety and creativity. Cleanliness was inconsistent. Our room was not always cleaned to a satisfactory standard, and we noticed issues with the bathroom and common areas on several occasions. We also had to remind staff about basic housekeeping more than once. Service was hit or miss. Two people in the restaurant (a male waiter and a young woman) were genuinely friendly and attentive, and one person at reception was helpful – but the rest of the staff seemed uninterested or unmotivated, which affected the overall atmosphere. No major problems occurred, but the lack of attention to detail and the average food and cleaning standards mean we can only give Sea View Lodge a maximum of 4 out of 5. With some improvements in staff training and more focus on maintaining cleanliness, this could be a much better place. We recommend it for the location and a few standout staff members, but management needs to step up to meet the expectations of guests staying for more than just a couple of nights.

Déception totale. Hormis la vue mer rien n'est à la hauteur d'un 4 étoiles. Je ne comprend pas les avis positifs des clients. Chambres vieilles et sales, service inexistant nourriture médiocre. Ce resort a dû avoir ses heures glorieuses il y a longtemps et pour ce prix (150 usd par nuit) il y a de bien meilleurs plans à jambiani. J'ai exprimé ma déception au jeune directeur italien qui semble être conscient de la situation mais qui est dépendant du proprietaire

Unless you have never ever travel this hotel is the worth I ve ever experience with my family. See my pictures. It's a total.joke not saying something else to stay polite. There is no care in this hotel. Its abandoned. I only notice something good. The pancake in the morning are quite good. But would you pay this price for 2 3 pancake in the morning while having a terrible experience.

Right on a gorgeous beach
Nice clean room. Beach side rooms are a bit small but as there is no reason to stay in the room with the beach a few steps away, it was no issue. Staff was friendly and efficient.

Great family bungalow in a good location
We had a lovely family bungalow for our 3 night stay and this hotel is in a good location. Donna the masseuse was excellent, and the staff were all very welcoming. The only downside was the restaurant had limited vegetarian options for our daughter and the lighting in the evening didn't make it feel cosy so we ate elsewhere.
The Kuza cave is only around 20 minutes walk away and well worth a visit.
