Dar Dahab

The location is lovely, and the staff is great. Ahmad who manages the property is so helpful and accommodating. I’ll definitely be coming back.

My stay at Dar Dahab was truly exceptional. I stayed in the Nakhl room, which means “palm” in Arabic, and the room overlooks beautiful palm trees. What made the experience even more special was that during my stay, the palms were being harvested. Watching this traditional process from the room and experiencing it firsthand added such a unique and memorable dimension to my stay. Nahed, the wonderful lady who owns the place, was incredibly generous and welcoming. She even gave me some fresh dates from the harvested trees to try, which was such a thoughtful and unforgettable gesture. The place itself is beautifully designed, peaceful, and full of character. You can really feel the care and thought that went into creating it. It was the perfect place to slow down, relax, and enjoy Dahab. The staff — Ahmad and Mohammad were genuinely kind, warm, and welcoming. They treated us with such care throughout our stay and made us feel truly at home. Their kindness felt completely sincere, and they really added to the whole experience. I also loved the store downstairs. It has a beautiful selection of gifts and souvenirs, and I found it to be a wonderful addition to the place. I absolutely loved my stay and would happily return. Highly recommended!

Honestly, there was very little I didn’t like about my stay. Everything was thoughtfully designed and the atmosphere was peaceful and welcoming. I only wish I could have stayed longer!

Literally everything

The location was beautiful, the management team was really amazing, helped us with recommendations, booking excursions and responding to all of our questions/needs.

Dar Dahab exceeded all expectations. The location is peaceful and right on the beach, with a stunning balcony view over the sea. The apartment was spacious, tastefully decorated, and incredibly comfortable. The staff were exceptional — friendly, helpful, and always available. Even the airport transfer was arranged flawlessly with professional drivers and a great car. I’ll absolutely return and highly recommend Dar Dahab to anyone coming to Dahab.

I liked Dar Dahab very much. Firstly, the owner and staff are wonderfully hospitable, friendly and helpful. The building itself is designed and built in an elegant manner, combining some traditional elements with modern ones. The ambience is perfect. Facilities were adequate and the manner in which the place is run, was to my liking.

Some maintenance is needed to keep everything working and looking their best — e.g. outdoor chairs need checking for broken parts, some indoor wooden surfaces need repainting, kitchen door units need attention. Additionally, daily attention is needed to keep the beach area clear of stones, rubbish and seaweed — this can easily be done by daily sweeping the sands clean, as is done on some of the neighbouring beach fronts. The rooftop terrace needs some attention too.

Perfect place to relax. One of the few quality places in Dahab. Lovely owners and manager which make you feel right at home! Amazing interiors, spacious studio and incredible rooftop.

All was perfect!

- Beautiful building and rooms. Lots of attention to the little details, very cool and relaxed vibe. - Big and spacious room, lots of light. I stayed in a room facing a narrow street, still got tons of sunlight and could hear the ocean. - Near the ocean and the ocean walk. - Near to shops, supermarkets and cafes. - Nice and helpful staff.

- From the description on booking.com it sounded as if there was a restaurant on site. That was not the case. I did not affect my stay or my rating of it, but I found the information misleading. You could order food, at least for breakfast. - Breakfast from 9. As an early riser I ended cooking my own breakfast, but I was a bit disappointed about the start time if I would have wanted to order. - A few more kitchen utensils would have been nice, such as bigger pots & pans or a microwave.

The host was so kind and made us feel at home

We really enjoyed staying at Dar Dahab, the location was right on the beach. Surprisingly swimming was so much fun on that beach and you can snorkel right out of the hotel. The staff and the owner are extremely helpful and welcoming. I would recommend the Dar and I will definitely go back.

Шикарный объект размещения! Невероятный вид, удобное расположение, очень удобные и стильные номера, великолепный сервис.

De locatie en de vriendelijk van de mensen . En je hebt alles wat je nodig hebt. Ruime kamer en een goed bed

Persoonlijk hou ik niet van dikke kussen. En d

It truly felt like home. The staff give you the freedom to use the place as if it were your own, and once you check out, you simply pay for anything if needed. There are also snorkeling sets, towels, and shoes available free of charge — you just need to take care of them as if they were yours. The location is amazing, and the shared spaces are lovely. You might even get the chance to meet the owner — such a beautiful and inspiring lady!

The hotel's location is perfect, on the beach, quiet, and minutes away from the crouded places

I had the best time of my life at this property I really enjoyed it and didn't want to leave it! The staff is more than Amazing they are super helpful, as a solo traveler I felt so safe with them, they made sure that I have a nice experience in Dahab

Absolutely no notes

Great property, relaxing vibe, the beach and sea is upfront, and great location in the Assala. The staff was very kind and helpful.

Nothing.

Everything from the cozy and convenient settings to the amazing staff and owner have been nothing short of amazing. Definitely recommendable 🫶🏻

The most delicate place to stay in Dahab. The whole staff is amazing. Once they knew we are newly married, the upgraded the room twice! And decorated the room with special flowers ❤️ excellent hospitality and very warm welcoming. It's not the firstly time and will surely not be the last one. Thanks a million!

Nothing at all. All needed facilities are there waiting for you.

I love that it was right on the beach: loved listening to the surf at night, lulling you to sleep.

This is really nothing to do with the property, but something to be aware of that. The beach is public in front of the property. There are a lot of feral dogs wandering along the beach and I got attacked twice. Once in the morning when they were very few people about ; the feral dog bared its teeth and jumped at me. I did nothing to provoke it. I was just walking. It shook me up quite a bit. I did let the proprietor know. The second time it happened. It was very busy and I was lucky that one of the Egyptian locals fought off the dog on my behalf. However, it then went to attack another dog and literally went for the jugular of this dog, and it was very upsetting for me to see that kind of violence. I know that is nature, but I was unprepared. Just be aware that when you are walking, have a stick handy that you can fend off any feral dogs that come to attack you. ( this is the advice one of the locals gave me.)

The vibe of the place was incredible. The hotel owner and manager were also very kind and helpful.

Dar Dahab is a lovely spot great location by the sea, super chill vibe. The place is clean and comfy, but the best part is the people! The owner and staff are so kind and helpful, they really made me feel at home. Totally recommend!

Amazing location by the sea in Dahab. The staff is simply amazing! Always ready to help, to support, and always smiling. Rooms are spatious, so well designed. The salt wall is a master piece! Sleeping at night hearing only the sound of the sea, the waves and wind, is a therapy by itself! Will be back!

The service we got from Ahmed and Mustafa was impecable. Ahmed waited for us on the day of arrival to welcome us in the middle of the night. We received an upgrade to a better room. The day of departure we had a late check out. We received good recommendations for diving and a trip to the mount Sinaï. Super beautifull and peaceful place to spend the holidays.

Nothing

The view, and apartment was lovely. The bed was comfy, and the hotel had a really nice artistic vibe.

Just little details. Bathroom needed a little updating, had some simple repairs to be made like broken hook, hard to keep your towel dry, from shower, and showerhead should be replaced. Kitchen a little light on being able to really cook. But would stay again, without hesitation.

Amazing view over the sea. Great help with activities and always very welcoming! Beautiful architecture.

Nothing, everything was great!

This was my second stay at Dar Dahab. I had the contact information for Ammar the Manager from my prior visit. I texted him to set up our airport pickup. From the moment we arrived, I immediately felt at home. The space itself is very calming, eco friendly with an amazing yard in the middle and access to beach. It is owned by the most wonderful host, who is welcoming, spiritual, gentle and cared for us like we were staying at her own house. The staff got us all our needs from beach towels to money exchange or planning day trips and getting us food from our favorite places. It was very difficult for me to leave, and I already booked my next trip. I travel all around the world and stay at 5 star hotels and resorts internationally but Dar Dahab feels like a home, it does not give you that feeling of angst that you want to be home after a long vacation, it rather makes you want to stay longer!!!

That I had to leave after my vacation was done.

Everything about this property was amazing. From the hotel itself, to the owner & management. The stunning view, the cleanliness, the comfort. I truly loved everything about my time at dar dahab

The location and the view are fantastic. The people working there and the owner are friendly and super nice. The place is cozy u feel home 😍

Need to take care of the cleanliness of the place

Fabulous rooms and hotel :)

The design was beautiful

The price

This hotel is absolutely beautiful - it uses the gorgeous local craftsmanship for its furniture and decor, and the effect is lovely. It feels spacious, luxuriously simple, and uncluttered. The staff are extremely helpful and kind and I really appreciated all of their efforts during my stay. They are also extremely responsive. The roof deck is a lovely place to relax. The location is peaceful and there is access to the Red Sea just outside the door. Just a short walk a couple of blocks away are some nice cafes, juice bars, etc. Though the hotel is a bit farther from the "boardwalk" area of Dahab, that busier area is still very accessible if you like to walk or it's a 20 EGP taxi ride. For those looking for a peaceful stay, I would very much recommend this place!!

It IS pricey in comparison to other hotels in the area - the price of the other services from them is also a bit higher in comparison to many of its peers in the area (e.g. the taxi they quoted me from Sharm airport was $12 USD more than I usually pay for safe quality transportation between Sharm and Dahab). It does come with a kitchenette and direct Red Sea access, and the quality of the service and decor is top-notch, so those are things to consider when looking at the price. The only other issue is that my mattress was awful - it was simultaneously rock-hard and lumpy.

Great views and super friendly staff - recommend the sea view rooms

Nothing comes to mind

An absolute gem of a spot, with great people - staff and guests alike. Hope to be back soon!

Everything - wonderful hospitality and gorgeous architecture. A great place to come Solo or in a group

We loved our stay at Dar Dahab. Nahed was incredibly kind and thoughtful and we couldn’t recommend staying here enough. She very kindly upgraded us to a sea view room on arrival and the room was beautiful, bed was comfy and falling asleep to the sound of the waves was just magical. It’s just a short walk down the beach or the road to get to the main town, it was nice to be in the quieter side of the strip. We arranged a lot of activities through Ammar which were all well organised and well worth the money including a desert day trip, snorkelling at the blue hole and swimming in the blue lagoon. All unforgettable experiences. We would 100% stay again and found Dahab a wonderful spot for sun during the UK winter.

The bathroom could maybe do with a bit of updating but other than that the whole stay was perfect.

Everything!! This is such a wonderful place to stay. The team are so friendly and helpful. They helped out with all sorts of queries we had via whatsapp and in person. The apartment is even better than the photos, all cooking facilities you need, super clean and has a fab beachfront location. The reef and sealife you can see just snorkelling out front is great. We did the traditional Bedouin evening meal too with lamb cooked under the sand and claypot beef and it was exceptional. Easy to get into town walking or taking a 2min taxi (of which there is an endless supply!). Can't recommend enough.

Everything was perfect, especially the view from the balcony and terrace

The place is filled with exceptional relief and vibes. From the moment you step in you will get indulged you in its beauty. The only comment and when i say this its because it is unacceptable and it is in regard the way of management, as it sort of lacks the sense of hospitality and smiling to the guests . Please reconsider the way of management, and unify the way you deal with all your guests (foreigners or locals. It is a concept). I had comments from my friends during the stay and including myself of some sort of arrogance in communication and behavior, which was seen and felt unwelocomed from the manager. Other than that everything was magnificent and many thanks to hospitable and genuine owner

The team was very helpful and kind. The location of the hotel, just in front of the sea was amazing. The hotel was decorated beautifully.

Best hotel in Dahab for the feel of luxury. Very much recommende

The hotel is located 15 mins from city center, making it an ideal location if you're looking for a quite place to stay. The room was clean with a great view to the sea. We would definitely be returning to Dar Dahab on our next visit to Dahab.

Our room had a gorgeous view of the ocean. The bed was very comfortable. The staff were so kind and welcoming.

There isn’t anything we didn’t like about the property.

Best place to stay in Dahab and the guys there are incredibly kind and helpful. directly on the beach 20 meters from some good snorkelling and great sized rooms. why anyone would stay in a hotel over here I do not know!

This pace is simply awesome and has everything I need for a perfect vacation. Great location, beach front and in a quiet place. You can also easily walk to the area where most of the restaurants are. Ammar the manager is a star, he supported us in multiple fronts: helped us organize our diving journey (and even convinced my wife to do her fisrt diving experience), supported us calling taxis and airport transfer and even brought a medicine for my dad who had a stomachache one day. In summary I strongly recommend staying in Dar Dahab and I hope to come back one day

Nothing, I only wish I had more days to spend there

Dar Dahab was stunning - both the common areas and our apartment were beautiful, clean and tastefully designed. We had people approach us on the beach to ask about the hotel because it's so visually striking. The location on the water can't be beat, and we felt relaxed and safe. It's about a 20 minute walk from the main strip, but there are great restaurants within a 5 minute walk of Dar Dahab (our favorites were Seaduction and Shanti Cafe). The staff was friendly and helpful. We would absolutely return!

A quiet, clean and perfect place ammar, the owner of the place, received us perfectly and helped us find worthwhile places to eat Totally worth the price!! The location is close to the center

No, everything is perfect

Dar Dahab suits and space look exactly as in photos. It sits right on the beach, in between neighborhood houses. You become part of the local scene when you stay there and it is beautiful. It is about 15-20 minutes walk by the shore to city center and to all restaurants, which provides a nice peaceful detachment yet it is close enough to everything. The gem of Dar Dahab is Amar - the hotel manager, who is simply amazing! so helpful and friendly, and has exceptional customer service skills. There was nothing we needed help with that he did not make every effort to accommodate! we thank him so a lot.... Ask Amar for the Matfuna, which is a whole chicken he makes in the sand, by the beach. Wow!

We had a lovely vacation at Dar Dahab. We stayed in one of their sea front rooms which are facing the sea, and are just 20 meters away from it. The sound of the sea waves was just wonderful at night. The hotel is tastefully designed and its location is excellent – on the furthest and most quiet stretch of the Dahab beach—close enough to the hub but far enough to enjoy peace and quiet. Amar and his staff are super friendly and helpful. A wonderful experience!

We had an amazing stay in Dar Dahab. Ammar and Mustafa were very welcoming and helpful, they definitely made our stay better. Can't wait to visit again.

Dar Dahab was fantastic in every way. The manager Ammar took excellent care of us and treated us like close friends. We will definitely be back!
