Top Dahab Hotel Reviews
Ecotel Dahab Bay View Resort
"Friendly staff, good food varieties and and breathtaking view"
Bedouin Moon Hotel
"Ideal location. Very hospitable staff. The property and room were lovely. Breakfast was high quality and included a lot of variety. Air conditioning worked very well. The entire stay was excellent!"
JAZ Dahabeya
"Good stay overall I really recommend"
Tropitel Dahab Oasis Resort
"Good experience if you snorkeling"
Inmo Divers home
"I got the octopus suite, an apartment, which is a little set back from the main hotel. Despite it saying ‘breakfast is included’ they have an iron cast rule that breakfast is not included if you stay at the suite. Worth noting and budgeting accordingly. The suite is next to a school so it’s best if you plan to be up early on weekdays. Staff very helpful and warm and flexible. Good vibes. It’s the southern end of the dahab strip, the beach nearby was nice to swim in. I prefer this part of the strip, nice and quiet: much north of here it gets very busy with hawkers and tourists. "

"Excellent place."
Rafiki Hostels - Dahab
"A very nice community they have created! "
Swiss Inn Resort Dahab
"We had a great time and highly recommend staying here. The staff is amazing, the place is beautiful, surrounded by see and mountains. The room was big, beautiful and clean. The food is very good. We did all inclusive which we did not regret. We also booked a night hike to st Cathrine and a Canyon tour through Bob at the hotel which were great experiences. All in all highly recommended!"
