I stayed at this hostel during my trip to Zanzibar, and I honestly couldn’t believe the quality I got for the price. From the moment I arrived, the staff were super friendly and welcoming—they really go out of their way to make you feel at home. They helped me with everything from booking tours to recommending local spots to eat, and they always had a smile on their faces. The room I stayed in was spotlessly clean, air-conditioned, and very cozy. After a long day exploring or chilling by the sea, coming back to such a comfortable and cool room was a treat. You can tell the place is well-maintained and that they really care about keeping it nice for guests. The location is just perfect—it’s literally just a few steps from the beach and would walk out every morning for a quick dip or to watch the sunrise. The whole vibe of the place is super chill and relaxed, with hammocks and little corners to read or just hang out. It was the perfect balance of social and peaceful. What surprised me most is how cheap it was compared to the value you get. Honestly, I’ve paid way more in other places and didn’t get half the quality. If you’re traveling to Zanzibar and want a great stay without blowing your budget, this place is an absolute gem. PS. This place is really safe as well! U could leave ur stuff the whole day and come back finding them untouched! Would 100% stay here again!

The place is in a nature habitat and so you enjoy the sea going back and forth. Beautiful view. I've been in many places but the beach is withe water transparant blue similar to the maldives. I enjoyed everything and everyone working there. My biggest compliments to you all thank you.

Hotel is a true gem of Nungwi Beach. This newly built hotel offers a high-quality experience with a stylish and tasteful design creating a perfect balance between comfort and elegance. One of the highlights is the on-site café, where the food is simply fantastic—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The menu will not disappoint. The staff are exceptional—friendly, helpful, and always with a smile. Their positive attitude and attention to detail make you feel truly welcome. The owner of hotel made our stay in Zanzibar truly special. He was incredibly helpful, kind, and friendly, always making sure we had everything we needed. His local knowledge and willingness to share tips and experiences about Zanzibar made our trip even more enjoyable. He also helped us arrange excursions and taxis. One of the best features is the access to owners another hotel just 1 km away along a beautiful beach, where guests can enjoy a swimming pool, a great restaurant, and lively parties. If you’re looking for a peaceful, well-designed, and hospitable place to stay right by the stunning Nungwi Beach, Dhow Boutique Hotel is the perfect choice. Highly recommended!

    Amazing location right by the beach - 10/10. Staff were really helpful and set up a tour for us when we arrived late the previous evening so that was really useful! Gave good restaurant recommendations too. They washed our clothes for us too for a very reasonable price. Good breakfast. Very clean room.
