We visited Dream of Zanzibar in mid january, which turned out to be one of the best times possible to visitthere was an ocean breeze throughout the day, which made the 35C temperatures quite bearable.
Overall impression of the hotel is good rooms are fairly spacious and are well maintained.

We had our honeymoon at Dream of Zanzibar and it was honestly a dream. My husband and I have done a lot of travelling together and seen some amazing places. We wanted this to feel different - and we were reluctant to do an All Inclusive resort as we are normally pretty active travellers. I cannot rate Dream of Zanzibar higher. For one, they made an effort to make us feel special upon arrival and even upgraded us as it was our honeymoon. This meant a lot and gave it the special feel we desired.

The food and entertainment was remarkable, lots of diversity with the food. I recommend booking at the different restaurants. We ate at all of them. The Italian/Pizza was distinctly good. The seafood was the only one you needed to pay extra for but wow, it was extraordinarily and really intimate. There were only a couple tables and right on the beach. The main restaurant was where we had breakfast and most lunches. There was entertainment on 2 or 3 of the evenings. The amount of preparation and food was astonishing on these evenings.

There were loads of employees. You definitely can't complain about service.

We spent most days on the beach. The staff offered to bring me a drink and asked if I wanted it served in a fresh coconut. Don't be shocked if the guy takes a while to come back with the fresh coconut, as he will go climb a palm tree and bring it back. He really meant "fresh" when he offered it!

For us, Dream of Zanzibar didn't feel like it was a huge resort which was good. We stayed closer to the main beach/pool and restaurants so that probably meant we didn't have far to walk and perhaps made it feel more intimate. On the gala night when everyone ate in one place, I then realized how many people were at the resort! It was honestly amazing, very highly recommend it. Thank you to Dream of Zanzibar for ensuring our honeymoon was a once in a lifetime trip!

The setting is stupendous – Dream of Zanzibar. White sanded beaches. With the Indian Ocean out a kilometre, it allows for you to walk on the sticky, soft sand. Otherwise, you can spend your days relaxing by the pool. The coconut trees, the steady wind that helps to 'stifle' the heat are lovely. The grounds well kept. When in the room, we kept our patio door open to enjoy the sea breeze. The food was tasty. There are a few restaurants where you can eat. We enjoyed the African restaurant one night. We loved the outdoor air that smelled good and that the staff was always eager to please and be helpful. Our evening entertainment was also good.
