Rayhana Guest House

Guest house molto carina, fronte mare, accogliente, un luogo tranquillo ideale per staccare la mente e dimenticare problemi e lo stress della vita quotidiana , a 15 minuti a piedi dal centro. Colazione abbondante, si può ordinare cibo da asporto per pranzo/cena oppure andare a mangiare in città a piedi. In cucina c è di tutto…. The, tisane, merendine, succhi di frutta, acqua, bibite, frutta. L’ambiente è caloroso e familiare; Ibrahim, il proprietario, è una persona gentile e disponibile ad aiutare e a dare suggerimenti, Mahmood lo è altrettanto. In cucina e nelle zone in comune si possono conoscere viaggiatori da tutto il mondo, molto bello☺️Nel complesso, mi sono sentita come a casa🥰Lo consiglio vivamente

Nulla

Really beautiful and clean rooms, the shower head was a little low but it had good hot water, there is a beautiful sitting area at the back and the staff are all lovely and the breakfast is delicious and they accommodated my vegan requests.

Nothing to dislike, everyone was nice and the owner helped me with some natural remedies to help me feel better which was very kind. The only thing I’d say is the items for sale are very expensive, for example a large water is 50LE, that’s 5 times the price of what it should be, this is just taking advantage of tourists not knowing the price. My advice would be to walk to the shop and buy your own water because that’s too much personally as the shop will charge you 10LE. Other than this I would recommend.

差劲👎，预定了两间房房费已经付过了的，但是晚上到了太晚了只留了一个房间给我们，也没主动说退一间房间后面搬了个床垫过来让我们睡一个房间，问他退钱退百分之三十，我们说退一半不情不愿的还说我们第二天还要吃他的早餐，然后我们停车在他们名宿门口，去潜水了就发邮件说不把车开走报警警察过来拉车了，等潜完水回来车轮没气了。无语

L’expérience à La Guest House Rayhana à était parfaite , Ibrahim et Mahmoud sont tellement gentils . Merci beaucoup pour notre séjour 🙏🏻

Perfect stay, Rayhana guest house felt just like home! As a woman traveling solo, I felt totally safe stay with Ibrahim! I arrived with some issue since my driver whom took me to Marsa Alam from Luxor was trying to charge me more than agreed. Ibrahim helped me out of the situation with ease. I really appreciated his kindness and hospitality! Breakfast was great, there are some snacks or drinks available to purchase in the kitchen if you feel lazy to walk to the supermarkets. Which is very thoughtful!

I had a lovely stay at the guesthouse and am grateful that I met Ibrahim and his family during my stay. They offered lovely Egyptian breakfast and wide range of additional drinks and snacks. You can also rent snorkeling equipment and bikes. The rooms have a sea view with a balcony, lovely decorations and housekeeping if you need. The best places are the great rooftop where you can just chill and relax in a hammock or a cozy chair. Ibrahim and his staff members will arrange any kind of trip, diving course or taxi if you want to explore the area. They always offer the best recommendations where to go. Most beaches are not that far. If you wanna treat yourself and escape from the city hustle, this is your way to go. You will feel home within a couple of hours!

The view from the bedrooms and the roof was lovely. Everyone who works there is kind and helpful. Ibrahim was able to organise wonderful trips for us around the area. The fridge is stocked with all the essentials (water, beer, juice, chocolate).

The property is in the city of Marsa Alam, far from the resorts that line the coast. There are limited options for restaurants in the area and the beach directly in front of the property isn’t the best. However, if you’re looking for a more relaxed and authentic experience, this is the place to stay!

We had a great stay at Rayhana Guest House. The communication was really smooth from the moment we booked our room. Being in a new place that you do not know at all (our case), it was much appreciated that Ibrahim and his staff took a great care of us! The place looks really cozy and is spotlessly clean. We also liked the decor of the room and common areas. It´s located in a quiet area, walking distance to the city center and close to the sea. There was nothing to complain about. Definitely recommend!

A very beautiful place. Rooms and communal areas are spotless clean. Breakfast was top. Staff is extremely nice and helpful . Once I booked, l received their special prices they offer for all activities, from snorkeling, diving, quads, and transfers. They were very helpful helping me organising my diving. It's the best place if you don't like to be between hundreds of tourists. I enjoyed staying at Rayhana and definitely coming back. Thank you for everything!

We had a very good stay at Rayhana, and Mahmoeed did a very good job preparing breakfast, doing the rooms and helping us arranging taxis and excursions. We particularly enjoyed the large table for breakfast and the roof terrace where we would have a couple of beers at the sunset. Overall we felt quite at home during our staying. The dog of the house adopted us as her owners and would walk with us to the city center every night, barking to anybody who came too close to us. She would wait for us outside the restaurant to accompany us back. Beds were quite comfortable and room was clean and fairly large. Breakfast was good, it could be even better if it included fresh juice (orange, mango or guava) or fresh fruit (Egypt has the best mangos I ever had!, we were buying it in the market and would cut it for breakfast, but it would be nice if they were offered as part of the standard breakfast included in the room). The view towards the see was quite nice, even if a bit far away.

Some nights we had loud barking from dogs in the street in the middle of the night which woke us up. The location is a bit far away from city center, so it was a fairly long walk to go and come back every night. The shower arrangement was a bit annoying, the water would make the whole bathroom wet since there is no edge to the shower area. Also there seems to be no siphon in the shower drain, so quite some bad smell would come into the bathroom even putting the steel cover on the drain when finishing using the shower. The towels provided for the bathroom were fairly small.

We were greeted my Mahmoud he is a very nice and courteous man who went out of his way to make us feel welcome and comfortable the place has a nice chilled out vibe and is ideal a diving holiday

The hosts were super welcoming and helpful. They gave us great advice and helped us to organise several excursions to visit the most important locations. Great and fresh breakfast! Amazing staff!

We came as a group, the host was so fun! He took us in a beetle bug to a beautiful beach, we had fish dinner and slept peacefully. I would highly recommend.

Not anything to do with the host. The property is in between unfinished buildings so it looks like not a nice neighborhood. But it is nice and safe and quiet across from the o en. And town is a short 10 minute walk.

It was a really lovely vacation, I really like how homey and cozy the place is, it made us feel welcomed, and safe. everything was clean. If you're looking for a quiet getaway, I highly recommend Rayhana. Thank you, Mr. Ibrahim, for everything <3

Very very very nice place! Extremely well cleaned, room big and comfortable, all the structure very organized, the guest Mahmood ( hope is written right 😅) is fantastic! Always there, for everything I needed, very kind and polite. Egyptian breakfast was very good! Sure to come again!

The best host and a really cozy guest house in the center of Marsa Alam.

The city of Marsa Alam is a construction zone, far from the resorts that it is otherwise known for.

Ibrahim the host is really nice and helpful. Nice rooftop to chill with the sea view.

This guest house is a hidden gem! It's not just comfortable and clean (which it totally is!), but it also has this warm, welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. The host is absolutely fantastic – incredibly friendly and fun! He went above and beyond to make sure we had a great stay. It felt more like staying with family than at a guest house.

All fine.

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

Great stay. The room is nice and clean. There is a beautiful common space where you can relax. Generally speaking, everything is quiet and chill, as the owner Ibra, who is super easy going and kind. He will help you to arrange everything you need. It's a perfect place if you want your indipendence and don't like crowded places, or mass tourism. I felt at home very soon. There are also some dogs there, and if you are a dog lover as I am, you'll be amazed by their intelligence, beauty and personality. Highly recommended!

The guesthouse has a view of the sea and is well situated to get to the village, as to the beaches which are reachable by car or bike. My room was spacious and the bed was very comfortable. The owner Ibra was very helpful when I had questions or requests. He cares about the place and seems to upgrade it consistently as he had the roof tiled to build another area for guests to relax in. Ibra and Mahmoud are very kind people. I also liked that the guest house capacity is limited which makes it easy to get to know other guests and even organise sightseeing trips together.

Mosquitos are an issue in this area of the Red Sea and unfortunately I was not well-prepared for it. There was noise from the works on the roof but luckily it started at the end of my trip.

Nice staff ! Very clean :) Quiet place

The most amazing people:-)

Perfect place to stay, it's safe and super clean. The host Ibrahim will do his best to make you feel comfortable.

Better if you have a car cause the beach is little far by walk but the tours guide know very well the place and come get you at the hotel

If you looking for affordable and cozy place where you feel safe and welcomed, then indeed that’s the right place, The host is friendly and decent man, he would help you with everything you need, Room was clean and comfortable, The place can arrange trips to the attractions of Marsa Alam, as well as it’s near to Supermarkets, ATMs, restaurants and some local shops.

We had a relaxing stay at Rayhana! It was cute and clean, and within a 15 minute walk to the center of Marsa Alam. Ibrahim was very kind and helpful with suggestions of places to go. Thanks for a lovely stay :)

I really enjoyed my stay at Rayhana. The staff was so helpful with what you ask for. Transfer from the airport was perfectly organized, with 20 euro less than taxis at the airport. Diving was so nice, and very well organized by Ibrahim, with their padi partners who did a great job to make us enjoy. I really loved all.

Host Ibrahim is super nice friendly and gets you everything you need.

Everything was amazing : the owner will help you in any thing you need and will make your trip a great experience in Marsa Alam. I heartily recommend this place :)

A lovely place to stay, Ibrahim was the best host, helpful, reliable, provided tips, organisation for dive and snorkelling tours, taxis, smiles, good talks and laughs and even aloe vera for sunburn! It was exactly what we were looking for

everything was perfect

Ibrahim's Marsa Alam guesthouse is a gem! Exceptional host, warm atmosphere, and great guest vibes. Perfect for a relaxing getaway. Don't miss out on this remarkable experience! 🌟🌴 #MarsaAlamParadise

nothing

If you want to stay directly in Marsa Alam town, this is the place to go. Rooms are basic, but comfortable and the whole place is spotlessly clean and decorated lovingly. If you plan an excursion, I recommend to ask Ibrahim. He is helpful and knowledgeable.

There is no REALLY nice beach within walking distance.

Amazing stay with such great guester Room with beds excelent, near to public beach (5min.walk) with super fish restaurant, crystal sea so great for snorkling and diving. You can many diferent fish with various colors and shapes.Many options for car or even bike trips

My wife and I stayed at Rayhana's for 11 nights and enjoyed it immensely. Both Ibrahim (the owner) and his trusted worker Mahmoud were excellent hosts. Anything a person needed they we very helpful in accommodating us. Very relaxed location with a common area where we met and had stimulating conversations with other guests and staff. A short walk to town, and a nice view of the sea. If your looking for an All Inclusive Resort, don't come here. This place is WAY better. Will look forward to coming back some day.

Didn't like leaving. A bit noisy at times with construction near by, but that's par for the course in this developing town. See it now before it gets too hussle bussle.

We spent a week at Rayhana, the guesthouse is quiet and clean, but you can meet a lot of people from around the world, sharing experiences with you. Sadly we couldnt meet the host (Ibrahim), but we had the pleasure to meet Mahmoud, he was very kind and he did everything to make us comfortable during all the stay. Also we had the chance to speak about Egyptian culture and it was very interesting. 10/10

Way too expensive for what you get. In addition they charge 2€ per day AND per person for WiFi extra. For 4 persons we paid 8€ per day extra for bad internet connection which is only available at the lobby.

Feels like home. Ibrahim is very friendly and we spent good times speaking about everything and sharing ideas.

Me and my partner stayed here for one week and we loved it. This is a calm place with a very nice common area. Some drinks and snacks are available for an extra fee. Breakfast was served every day at any time according to hour daily schedule. The place is very clean and also our room was cleaned in a regular basis. It was great to rent the bikes to have a wonder in the town. Ibra (the owner) and Mahmoud, they take care of this place and they are the most lovely people, they gave us very good tips and info and it was a pleasure to chat with them during our spare time. Inki (the dog) is the little star here and was also a lovely and respectful company when we spent some time in the common area. I definitely recommend this place and be sure that if you come here you will find a lovely and friendly environment

There was no hairdryer. For long haired heads this is a bit of a problem but I am sure Ibra will solve it :)

i was comfortable and management took great care of me

I only spent one night at this guest house, but Ibrahim (who owns the property) was a great host, and we spent a couple of hours chatting and watching football in his private lounge. The property has sea facing views and is clean and comfortable, and the rate included a very decent breakfast.

Plenty of mosquitoes in the area, but the staff did spray my room thoroughly in the evening, which made a big difference.

Staff were excellent The excursions were great Nice chilled atmosphere

Breakfast was very basic, some real coffee would be a good start! As a couple twin beds with twin mosquitoe nets wasn't perfect! There was a fair amount of construction noise from adjacent building site.

The moment I entered the dorm, I was surprised because it was so pretty, and when I entered the room, I was surprised because it was spacious and comfortable. Everything we needed was prepared in the accommodation. Thanks to you, I had a very comfortable time and the janitor quickly solved many things that I needed and asked for. Thanks to

Lovley guesthouse, 10 minutes by foot outside of Marsa Alam. Very friendly and helpful staff! Found myself in a relaxed and harmonic atmosphere. Clean room with AC and bathroom. Lovley terasse with cold drinks etc.🙏

We had an awesome time in Marsa Alam, there are great day trips and beautiful beaches you can visit. The host Ibrahim is very friendly and helped us out with everything, even after we left the place he helped us with my missing luggage. We felt very much at home :)

Can just recommend the rayhana guest house. The owner is very friendly and willing to help all the time. I really enjoyed my stay there and would come anytime again. But I have to say that the beach close to the hostel is not really nice, so you have to go to nicer beaches by car most of the time. Only manko. The staff was also very nice and the rooms were clean and alright.

Very friendly staff,he fullfilled all our requests,gave us good recommendation.We were feeling like at home

Kleines Guesthouse mit einem grossartigen Host. Und 2 verspielten Katzen. :) Volle Punktzahl. Frühstück mehr als ausreichend. Einkauf und Verpflegungsmöglichkeiten in 15 Gehminuten errreichbar. 100% empfehlenswert.

The hotel is a very pleasant place to spend your holiday in. The rooms are spatious and well kept. Ibrahim, the owner, is extremely kind and helpful, and will ensure you get the best out of Marsa Alam, whether you want to do snorkelling, diving, visit the desert etc. Trust is advice and you won't go wrong! The only thing to keep in mind is that there is very little to do in Marsa Alam proper, and that the city is mainly constituted of unfinished buildings. This being said, the hotel is in a very pleasant location, facing the sea about a 15 min walk away from the town's main street. If you want to stay in Marsa Alam and want to avoid resorts, Hotel Rihana is definitely an excellent choice!
