Very good hotel for a 4 star. Very comfortable with good facilities and good selection of food although only stayed one week, a fortnight may have been too much. Not much to do besides watersports. Make sure when booking that you want Dahab as we thought we had booked Sharm but this hotel is in Dahab one hour ten minutes from airport through the mountains.

Good for a 4 star, maybe the hilton would have been a bit nicer but this was a better option for the budget. food was quite good but got a bit repetitive over the week. really nice pool and pool area and good section of beach with umbrellas and wind shelters. the room was quite nice but maybe a bit tired. useful shuttle service to town. only downside was that some of the staff were a bit abupt, particularly the bar staff in the beach bar and a couple of the waiters. others were very friendly and helpful. a great place to stay if you have kids as the animation team keep them occupied with games, belly dancing lessons and evening entertainment.

We have just returned from a lovely week in Dahab, staying at this hotel. As it was our first trip to Egypt we weren't too sure what to expect, especially on the journey from the airport to Dahab, late at night, when it appeared we were going in to the middle of nowhere!

But we had nothing to worry about. First impressions of the hotel were that it was very clean and welcoming, and we were made to feel welcome by the reception staff who quickly organised everything for us and took us to our poolside room.

The room was very clean, a good size, tastefully decorated and had everything we needed. Towels and linen were changed every day by Mohammed, who was also a dab hand at folding the towels in to various shapes - flowers, swans, hearts etc!

The pool area was really nice and we never had a problem getting a sunbed. The hotel is right on the beach, with sunbeds on the beach and a beach bar. The sunbeds on the beach, whilst very nice, were quite close together and it could be quite difficult to get one unless you were out there to reserve one at about 8am!

You can walk out quite a long way in to the sea by the hotel, as it is quite shallow, and doesn't have too strong a current. However, it is absolutely full of windsurfers so there are only a couple of small areas for swimming and snorkelling, and in our experience the snorkelling wasn't fantastic. (If you are in to windsurfing or want to learn, it's great). However, we went on a quad bike trip to the 'Three Pools', where there is coral and the snorkelling was really good. There is also a place called the Blue Hole, which we didn't go to, but we heard that was also good for snorkelling and diving. If you go to the Three Pools, try and go early-ish in the morning (it's only about 15 minutes from the hotel by quad bike) as the light is better and it's quieter up there - we arrived at about 9.30am and it was quite quiet, but by 11am it was starting to get busy. There's a quad bike tour place just down the road from the hotel (Sinai Experts I think) which we'd definitely recommend for good, safe trips.

Food at the hotel was pretty good - we were half board and were a bit concerned that it would be a bit 'samey' (we usually go B&B on holiday and eat out), but there was a different theme every night and a reasonable amount of choice. Breakfast was pretty much the same every day, but that was ok. Everyone told us to be careful about tummy upsets, so we stayed away from anything that might have been washed in the water, and didn't have ice in our drinks, and we were fine all week.

The service was excellent - the staff were all very friendly and efficient and couldn't do enough for you.

There were lots of people of different nationalities there - Germans, Russians, Eastern Europeans - but it was kind of nice to be away from the 'Brits abroad'-type resorts!

The hotel does a shuttle bus in to Dahab town, which was good as it was quite a long walk, but the only thing is that it doesn't allow you very long before you are collected and brought back - we'd have liked a bit longer, as it is a lovely, ambient town. We'd definitely recommend a trip down there.

One downside - there were lots of mosquitos about; the hotel was very good and they sprayed at least once a day but it was difficult to get away from them. However, I used tropical strength repellent and that seemed to stop them biting. Don't wear any perfume!

Overall, we'd definitely recommend this hotel and Dahab for a relaxing holiday in lovely surroundings.
