Good hotel for a relaxing holiday. For lovers of diving, snorkeling or just swimming, this is a paradise. The check-in went quickly, the hotel was at 10:40, and checked in at 11:30 (11A1) The room is good, the bedding is clean, it is changed every day, as well as towels. The staff is not Russian speaking. Sun loungers on the beach must be borrowed from 5:00, the sunrises here are magnificent. There are always places near the pool, but not everyone has enough by the sea. The food is delicious, you won't leave hungry for sure. If you expect "super luxury" then you are definitely not here.
There are no restrictive buoys in the sea, you can swim wherever you want and as much as you want, on the right side of the mountain (2.8 km), there are underwater caves, but this is already for professionals, on the right if you swim to the third palm trees (2 km), there are opportunity to see stingrays and turtles. I liked horseback riding, pockmarked Selma, dark chestnut Shakira ($20 about 30-45 min), quad biking ($20 up to 2 hours). Diving in the center at the hotel $ 65 for 30 minutes with an instructor, he fully accompanies you throughout the swim (instruction and communication in English).
For those who travel with children, the entrance to the sea from the shore in two places between the corals, protective shoes are a must, as you can step on a small hedgehog or fish, immediately deep from the pontoon (about 3-4 meters). Without a mask, you will be bored swimming, you will not see the most interesting things for which they come here.

A trip to the city: at the reception you can sign up for a transfer to the city. Or by taxi $ 6-8 (it was more convenient for me by taxi, you are not tied to time and place) It is better to go to the city after 15:00, where all the restaurants are just starting to prepare for visitors, lay out the daily catch in front of the restaurant itself, which then you and will cook. You can have a good and tasty meal for $30 (the portions are large, and if there is leftover, you will be wrapped up with you).
Dahab itself is a diving and windsurfing center. This is the place where you can fully relax.
