East Africa Safaris is a beachfront chalet property at Chizavane, on the Gaza Province coast between Xai-Xai and Chidenguele. Despite the name, what is offered here is coastal accommodation in chalets, with a restaurant and bar on site and a private beach area for guests.
Best for
East Africa Safaris suits travellers who want simple chalet accommodation directly on the beach, with meals available so they are not dependent on cooking.
It suits less well anyone expecting a full-service hotel with a wide choice of room grades, or travellers who want to walk to shops and restaurants.
Location
The property sits on the shore at Chizavane, a stretch of the Gaza coast south-west of Chidenguele village. In a straight line it is about 21 km south-west of our Chidenguele village reference point. It is described as beachfront and lists a private beach area, which sets it apart from properties set back behind the dunes.
Rooms and style at East Africa Safaris
Accommodation is in chalets, with an Economy Chalet listed among the unit types and non-smoking rooms noted among the facilities. The source does not state how many chalets there are, how many bedrooms or beds each contains, or the maximum occupancy, and it names only the one grade, so the range on offer may be narrow. Anyone travelling as a larger group should confirm the layout and sleeping arrangements before booking.
Facilities at East Africa Safaris
Verified facilities include a restaurant, a bar, breakfast, free WiFi, free parking, an airport shuttle, non-smoking rooms and facilities for disabled guests. A private beach area is listed, and the property is described as beachfront.
Trade-offs and what to know
Only one chalet grade is named in the source, so there is little published detail on how the units differ or what larger parties are offered.
An airport shuttle is listed but the source does not say which airport it serves or whether a charge applies.
The property name suggests a safari operation, which can confuse expectations; what is verified here is coastal chalet accommodation at Chizavane.
Getting there and getting around
Access is by road along the Gaza coastal strip, turning off the main north-south route and following local roads to the shore at Chizavane. Free parking is listed for guests driving themselves, and an airport shuttle appears among the facilities, so an arranged transfer may be possible if you ask the property in advance.

Before you book
Confirm the chalet type, its bedding and how many guests it takes, since only one grade is named publicly. Check-in is stated as from 14:00 to 22:00 and check-out from 06:00 to 10:00, and the property asks for an expected arrival time in advance. It is also worth confirming whether breakfast is included or charged, whether the restaurant serves every day, and what the airport shuttle covers.
