Dream at Nungwi Dreams

Perfect ocean view and sound of the waves made for restful sleep at night. The staff was friendly and accommodating. Sometimes it was difficult to get the shower going but once it did, very hot. There’s a slight ant problem getting into the rooms.

This was like staying in paradise. Our room was spacious and bright. Just a few steps outside our door is the pool and a beautiful white sand beach on the Indian Ocean. Soraka.tours made our reservations and took care care of everything. I will definitely use them again. Kathy

Amazing hotel with amazing staff

This hotel and is staff is just amazing. Really great service - and were really helpful. Specially Aika helped us out, and was really excellent in getting us a dinner change. (When what we wanted was not on the menu) The hotel is new, and nice. Everything was clean - and we had the beach right outside. It was a bit tricky to swim in the ocean outside the hotel, but we managed. It is 15 min walk in the beach to get to Nungwi beach/center
Lisbeth, 3-night trip

Absolutely amazing view. And was upgraded to a better sea view room once I had a conversation with the extremely helpful and friendly staff. Such an amazing place!

My Stay

Power kept on tripping and the issue must be foxed
Christopher, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Overall I enjoyed my stay. My only recommendations is that they improve on the WiFi. I had very poor signal in my room. Also, the tv options were very limited and poor quality in the room. Breakfast was free and really nice but food for lunch and dinner is so so. I wish they had more local options. I also wish they played more local music. They seemed to play a lot of pop music through the day so the actual experience of Zanzibar was limited. The staff were really friendly and it’s a beautiful resort.
Natasha, 6-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Everyone was so kind and the food was really good! I’d definitely stay here again. Had no issues during my stay.
Erin, 9-night trip

2/10 Poor

Purchased buffet and drinks. It rained they only refunded buffet but not drinks
Christopher, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Amazing place to stay with beautiful views. The staff are so helpful and accommodating. Only down side is that the 24hour room service menu is quite limited in terms of options but besides that, nothing negative to say. Great stay
Habiba, 4-night trip

Amazing rooms, service and views!
