Dream Resort for Vacation
Nungwi Dreams was a gorgeous resort for my 8 day stay in Zanzibar. Nestled in between other resorts and the ocean, the room had a spectacular view from the balcony. We arrived fairly late, and the resort was gated with security present, creating a safe environment for guests. The bed was very comfortable and the room spacious for two people. The two pools were easily accessible and cleaned often, and pools overlook the ocean as well. We opted for half board and the breakfast/dinner options didn’t disappoint.The l restaurant located at the Pool was a great place to grab drinks, pizza and sweet snacks while relaxing near the water. The staff and service was plentiful, although I wish there was a better virtual way to keep track of room charges. The only thing that would make this better would be to have an adults only side. I would stay here again, and truly enjoyed my stay!

Overpcied for what it is and food is terrible
Will try to be as balanced as possible. Good things: - staff very smiley and helpful everywhere -the swimming pools are really good and worth it -the beach is amazing one of the best visited atound the world (water shoes are provided aswell) Bad - food is not great at all...stale bread used in burger, fresh juice not fresh, the dinner buffet has poor quality ingredients and gone off fruit. Breakfast buffet was average although presence of flies was a let down. Overall this isnt 5star food at all and it is the main reason that the review is only 2 stars...£500 a night room but the food is more like 2star hotel food... Service- can be inconsistent...for lunch the wait time is 30minutes regardless of what you order. Sometimes you would ask staff for something and they would disappear and not come back...there is a tendency for them to ignore your request if they didnt understand it. Gym- small but functional but the air conditioning does not work so its like a sauna...again I raised it with a staff member who didnt return Rooms- occasional power cuts and water cut off can be annoying although its transient. Presence of ants in the room occasionally. Tldr: amazing beaches but terrible food not value for money

The chef was wonderful. He took the time to get to know our dietary needs and made us special entrees and desserts. However, having a screen on our balcony door, or a door that closed properly would have gone a long way. Also a mosquito net. One last tip. Do not use a taxi that is not provided for by the resort. We were quoted $20 by one but when we arrived at our destination, he demanded 40. Just a word to the wise
