Jabali accommodates its guests in 8 luxury suites, hidden amid granite boulders on a high rocky ridge in the north-eastern Ruaha. From this secluded location, it provides easy access to the prime game-viewing areas around the Mwagusi River (the focus of game drives at the lodge), while also serving as an ideal base for walking safaris on the comparatively quieter eastern perimeter of the park.
Jabali's guest suites are wonderfully spacious. Fully open at the sides (with louvre shutters to seal the rooms at night), each opens onto a wide verandah with seating area and hammock – and splendid views! All rooms are furnished with king-size beds and feature ample hanging space.
Jabali Lodge's standout feature is its infinity pool. Positioned on the edge of the ridge, it offers stunning views of the surrounding baobab-strewn plains. Separate to the pool is a lounge and dining area, which, like the rooms, it fully open at the sides. There is also a spa.
