My partner and I travelled to Sharm El Sheikh for a liveaboard which would depart the day after arriving. So, Oonasdivers (http://www.oonasdivers.com/) organized the stay for one night for a very, very reasonable price. Given the price our expectations were reasonably low. So, arriving we were surprised to see that we got a very nice room with a balcony facing... More

We were there for a family dive trip in May 2013. There were 10 in our group ranging from very very experienced (over 3000 dives) to new divers and non-divers. The staff and dive guides could not have been better or more helpful.Special thanks to Hussein and Yasser who gave our non divers such brilliant try-dives that they now both... More

This is really a divers' hotel, although non-divers also get a nice beach, good hotel, and fine restaurant. To start with the hotel: it's good value for money with very decent rooms built against a rocky hill. Most rooms have a nice view over Shark's bay, double or twin bed, some with the option of an extra mattress for an... More

We enjoyed our time staying here at the hotel. It is a great value, the breakfast is delicious, the staff is awesome, and the food was great. However, the service we got at the dive center made us feel more like annoyances than customers. The tanks were not filled to 200 bar and many times the O rings were missing.... More

Sincerely enjoyed this layed back location. If you are up for relaxing close to the sea and not necesarily fancy luxory swimming pools this location is great. The staff in hotel and restaurant is lovely - and supportive. Take some time with them, at first they seem a bit distant. Hotel is good, nothing fancy, but basic - clean and... More
