    I had a fantastic experience at the diving center. Despite my late request, they accommodated me and arranged a refreshing dive the next morning. Mohamed Helmy, the instructor, was very professional and made sure I felt comfortable diving after a year's break. Samar and the rest of the staff were also helpful in preparing my gear. Thanks for making my next dive in Dahab memorable! I highly recommend this diving center.

    This hotel is an absolute gem! Not only is it located right on the beach, but it's also just a stone's throw away from the bustling main strip of shops and cafes. You won't need a taxi here! The staff at this hotel are incredibly welcoming and friendly, truly making you feel like part of the family. The rooms are clean and comfortable, with nice views and even a refrigerator. And let's not forget the delicious complimentary breakfast with a variety of options to choose from, all enjoyed with a lovely view of the sea. It's truly a magical destination for couples, friends, and families.

    All was absolutely perfect!

The hotel staff warmly welcomed me and made me feel at home throughout my stay. The rooms were not only well-maintained but also beautifully renovated, providing me with a comfortable and pleasant experience.

    I had a fantastic stay at this hotel in Dahab. First of all, the location is perfect. It is located right on the shore, so you can enjoy the beautiful views of the sea from your room. The hotel is also conveniently situated next to the main street, making it easy to explore the area and access taxis. Another great aspect of this hotel is the friendly and helpful staff. They went above and beyond to ensure that I had everything I needed during my stay. The basic amenities in the room, including the refrigerator and hot water in the shower, were all in good working condition. Lastly, the breakfast with a wonderful view of the sea was a delightful way to start the day.

    All in all, there was nothing to complain about during my stay at this hotel.

    I recently stayed at a beautiful hotel on the waterfront in Dahab. It was just a few minutes' walk from the center, but much more peaceful and away from the noise. The restaurant, overlooking the sea and gorgeous mountains, offered a complementary breakfast that was a great way to start the day. The rooms, whether in the main building or in a bungalow, were clean and had all the necessary amenities. The staff, including Ashraf and his brother, Sarah, were fantastic - always friendly, professional, and helpful. This hotel is definitely my go-to choice in Dahab.

    Couldn't recommend this hotel more.

    During our romantic escape, we had a great time. The complementary welcome drink and fruit plate were a nice touch. The tranquility of the location was perfect for relaxation, and the scenic view from the balcony was breathtaking. The hotel's proximity to the ocean was very convenient for waterfront activities, and the local market was a short walk away, making it easy to grab some necessities.

    The limited dinner menu was a bit disappointing, and some of the staff seemed less than enthusiastic about their work.
