Zanzibar's Dongwe Club Vacanze All-Inclusive Package Promoted Amid Health Warnings

The Dongwe Club Vacanze, a 4‑star resort on Zanzibar’s Dongwe Bay, is being marketed to Polish travellers with an All‑Inclusive Soft package starting at 4,499 zł. The offer highlights beachfront location, outdoor pool, tennis courts, wellness centre, water‑sports facilities and a cultural programme with Italian‑style entertainment. The hotel is 60 km from Stone Town and the international airport, with a typical 90‑minute transfer.

Separately, clinical dietitian Dr Paulina Ihnatowicz warns that all‑inclusive buffets can conceal high levels of hidden fats, sugars and potentially carcinogenic ingredients. She cites sauces, dressings, breaded and fried dishes, pastries, sweet yogurts and breakfast cereals as common culprits, and advises travellers to watch portion sizes, choose foods kept at proper temperatures, and avoid raw seafood or unpasteurised dairy, especially in destinations with lower sanitary standards.
