Great place to snorkel/dive!!
We had a lovely stay. We were welcomed and able to check in to our room early. We were given excellent recommendations by Amer of where to go snorkelling and he took my partner out diving. Perfect stay for a couple. The pools are 5m and 2m deep so would not be good for children but I had a lovely swim. Was very relaxing. We had a car so could easily drive in to Aqaba for dinner in 10-15 mins. Would recommend to couples who want to do some snorkelling/diving

SCAM
SCUBA DIVING SCAM! Stayed here a few weeks ago and while the accommodation is adequate (not great), the owner is a fraud. Convinced me to pay for the PADI scuba diving course saying that it would make getting a fully open water course cheaper. He said he would fill out the forms and I should receive an email a few days later, however I never received that email and have contacted him since, but he kept saying he was busy and yet to fill out the forms. If I could give zero stars I would. Should have read the previous reviews (on Google) before agreeing to pay. He also operates cash only, meaning we have no record of payment!

Peaceful Setting
Beautiful, quiet setting and very welcoming friendly, helpful staff. About a twenty minute drive out of Aqaba, close to the beach. Nothing else really around apart from Dive Centres. Room was large, with a fridge. Separate toilet and shower. We found the mattress on the bed hard and uncomfortable. You really need your own transport to get here and around Aqaba.

A unique gem. Simple, affordable accomodations with amazing view, beautiful pool and grounds. The hosts were extremely hospitable, very attentive and accomodating. They made us feel welcomed and cared for. They even made us a wonderful dinner when we arrived hungry and tired from our travels. They also served a wonderful breakfast. We would love to go back and spend more time.

Beautiful pool and welcoming, friendly staff. Beach is close, but there is little in the way of local amenities, requiring a short trip to Tala Bay (5 mins by car), or Aqaba (20 mins by car) for shops, bars, and restaurants. Note that reception takes CASH ONLY for meals, drinks, and other additional fees.

We received a great welcome from Liliya and Amer and really enjoyed our stay. The rooms were spacious and stylish and we had a delicious fresh fish dinner cooked by our hosts. It is a quiet location and sits above the beach, a ten minute walk away. Excellent snorkeling both on this beach and the acclaimed Japanese Coral Garden a few hundred yards further on. Not much going on in the village except for restaurants and dive centres but a very relaxing place, ideal way to start or finish a trip to Jordan. Thank you, Amer for your help with our rental car.

No vacancy despite confirmation number
I had confirmation from hotels.com but owner of hotel said they were full. She had one room but it was more expensive than the one I paid for and she would not offer at same price. Did not offer to assist in rebooking elsewhere despite the fact that I had traveled far by bus and taxi to reach the destination and there wasn’t anything else nearby. As an aside, unless you are a scuba diver, I do not see the charm of Aqaba. There are much better places to see in the region.

Un séjour exceptionnel
Tout était parfait ! : Nos hôtes adorables, Amer instructeur de plongée bouteille a initié les enfants et les a emmenés dans des endroits magnifiques, petit déjeuner varié et délicieux (oeufs, gaufres, gâteaux, toasts etc). La piscine est énorme et le lieu est très contemporain et bien entretenu...😍👍
