I had an incredible stay at this resort that felt like absolute paradise. The setting is breathtaking, the bungalows are spotless, and the staff made me feel like family. Meals were outstanding with fresh ingredients, and the private beach was perfect for watching sunrises and sunsets. My only wish would be for a bit more liveliness around the pool area, as it was quite tranquil, but this didn’t detract from my overall enjoyment.

This resort is a true gem for anyone looking to unwind after a busy safari. The villas are spacious and beautifully maintained, giving everyone plenty of room to relax. The beach is stunning, with soft sand and a great atmosphere, but keep in mind you'll encounter beach boys trying to sell things during the day. Dining here is a delightful experience with fresh and varied options, while the staff goes above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay. The only drawbacks were the lack of TVs in the rooms and WiFi access only in common areas, which could be a hassle for families with kids.

Staying at the Sands Resort felt like a slice of paradise! The ambience is incredibly tranquil, making it easy to unwind and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. The cleanliness and spaciousness of the villa were impressive, complemented by the warm hospitality from the staff. The dining experience was delightful with varied menus every evening, though I wish there were slightly more local options available. Overall, a great value for money experience with some areas that could be slightly improved.

The Sands Resort in Dongwe is a fantastic place to unwind, with amazing staff who go above and beyond to make your stay enjoyable. The villas are spacious and well-maintained, with beautiful gardens and a large pool. However, the dining prices can feel a bit steep relative to the offerings, and there might be some room for improvement regarding the speed of service during busy hours.

This resort offers a truly memorable experience with stunning beachfront location and excellent dining options. I was thrilled to have a spacious and comfortable villa with a private pool, and the service was exceptional throughout our stay. However, the distance from Stone Town might be a minor inconvenience for some, and the limited evening entertainment options could be improved.
