Travellers on a budget looking to experience a place like a local will enjoy homestays. This simple accommodation is in a private home, where the host also lives. All facilities are shared and in most cases breakfast is included.
I liked that it was quiet, I had the diving centre in the hotel, so I booked all my trips with them and I also appreciated that the village (Marsa Alam is just a village) is safe and allowed me to see the life of locals.
Lovely place and people! Had a comfortable bed, clean room with sea view and Ibrahim was a great host :) it’s perfect to get to know other people, and the rooftop might well be the best spot in town to watch the sun rising above the sea
From the time we arrived we felt directly very welcomed! Mohammed is a great host who really wants his guests to feel like they’re at home :)
He arranged snorkeling and diving for us while we were there so we would not have to worry about anything. We saw beautiful places at the Red Sea and had a great time.
The room itself it rather simple, but has overall everything you need.
Authentic and friendly experience in Egypt, with great opportunities to snorkel and delicious food. Accomodation is simple but it hasall what you need. The sense of community makes you feel home. Fady and Abdou are great hosts! Thank you
Omar is a great Host... He will do the extra mile to make sure you get the right service. Great clean quiet place not far from town centre... But far enough to have a quiet and comfortable sleep. Terrace us phenomenal!!!
The owner and staffs are friendly and helpful. The restaurant recommended is nice and seems popular among the locals. The room is spacious and swimming pool is clean. The location is close to a port which is a meeting place for diving and snorkeling. And the restaurants are not far if you drive.
perfect hostel, friendly staff, free breakfast, spacious rooms/ apartments! All the tours pick you up from the hostel. Omar is a great host, who organises tours for you at the best prices, defo book the tours through him to avoid the tourist price. thanks guys!
Fady is a great host with a big heart. He made this place a hot spot for really nice and interesting travellers, 300m from the sea with a very nice sunset (and moonrise) view. Abdul is a great cook, his meals and breakfast are delicious. If you want to go diving and like to spend time outside the big ressorts and on a budget, if you are nice and like to meet other nice travellers - go there!
