Warm hospitality in a romantic setting

You get really warm hospitality in Dolphin Dhow, and all staff are attentive and really trying to help you have a good and relaxing time. The rooms are nicely decorated, spotlessly clean, located in a garden setting, with a small romantic terrace overlooking the sea.
Dolphin Dhow is the largest and most experienced tour operator of Vilankulo, and you can easily make booking arrangements while you are there.
A better online communication would have helped with the booking of both the accommodation and the sea activities.

Perfectly Peaceful

Junior, the owner, and Mito, the tour guide, were Awesome, along with the rest of the staff!! Everyone was friendly & very accommodating! We stayed in a spacious suite with our own bathroom. The shower was nice & hot! There was wi-fi available if you needed to connect. The common area was peaceful to chill at. I stayed in the hammock overlooking the beach most of the time. Dolphin Dhow is a nice little get away I definitely recommend! Until next time!! Thanks a Bunch!! :)

Visit to dolphin

Overall, everything worked in dolphin. Food was absolutely fantastic and the staff was accommodating. Slightly pushy with the tours but overall a great place to stay!

I'd say definitely keep it as an option during your visit

My partner works in Vilanculos, so I decided to visit for a weekend. Very friendly and welcoming. Not 5 star but homely. We were able to do our own thing. Went island hopping, packed with adventure and drama. Nonetheless we enjoyed ourselves. Made a friend in Jnr's son "Haji". Amazing young boy. Weather was perfect, water warm; unbelievable A considering I have a serious phobia of the ocean I went snorkelling. Despite the drama we experienced with the skipper of the boat, we vowed to go back. The beach can be cleaned up a bit. Littered with odd clothing, and other debri discarded.

Room tip: The chalet we were in, the room was large; two double beds. Had airconditioning. Sparse furnishings. Could do with a TV.

My partner works in Vilankulos. This weekend was the only time he could get off so I booked myself a weekend off. Arriving in Vilankulos I met some amazing people. I also got to know the owners son "Haji". What a remarkable boy. Friendly, helpful and pleasant. We stayed for the weekend. Very "rustic". Took loads of pics. Sailed to the islands. Snorkelled. Loads of adventure and drama too. Have recommended Dolphin Dhow to friends and family. Thank you Junior and co for affording us a memorable weekend to say the least.
