Hakuna Matata Dahab

It was a very comfortable stay and the staff was so friendly, The rooms were so clean and well furnished with a peaceful view.

The two owners and the manager are super friendly, European standards furniture, cleaning and customer service. The beach is free to use, not only the property but everyone else who passes by. The atmosphere around is a kind of chill out style, which is great because you feel safer than in your own country. Is a bendoin area mixed with international travellers. The beach of this place is Paradise. You just need a rubber shoes for the water when entering the corals area. They also gave us better room than the one we chose, so made our stay more enjoyable. Thanks 🙏 for all! I hope i can come back one day!

The motor of the AC neighbor over our terrace gives us heat and noise during the nights.

The place view extraordinaire

Cleaning and hot welcome also welling to help

Salt water 💧 from faucet

The staff is so friendly and helpful, the furniture is clean and new. The location is beside the market and first line to the beach, quit and relaxing spot. The facilities are well prepared, well functioning. I really enjoyed my stay there and will definitely come back.

The view and staff support

Not far from the main walking strip And also very close to the markets which is handy They have an excellent view and access to the beach Very relaxing and clean

Amenities and toiletries can be limited but if you need anything extra you can ask the staff for it and they will be quick to provide it

Excellent emplacement où nous séjournons régulièrement.

Clean

Location, view and the friendly host ^^

La posizione strategica e la vista sul mate

They only thing I liked about this hotel experience was leaving it.

I liked nothing about this hotel. It was filthy, with blood/faeces stains on the doona cover of the first room I stayed in. The shower was dangerous, erratically switching from cold to boiling hot - when there was a water supply which there often was not. There were frequent power, water and internet outages in part because the owners had not paid their bills on time. Worst of all, because of the cats fighting throughout the night on the roof of the original room I booked on booking.com I was moved to a much smaller room with agreement by the owners to a lower price for the new room. On that basis, I agreed to extend my stay. However, the day prior to checking out, the owners informed me the price I must pay was twice what they had originally agreed. One of the brothers physically threatened me and said he would call the police if I did not pay the new price. This was a frightening experience. I am 72 years old. This hotel stay was by far the very worst experience I have ever had at a booking.com-booked hotel. The owner even advised booking.com that I had cancelled the booking in an attempt to try to silence me from reporting this hotel or writing a bad review. One of the main problems is the amount of cannabis the owners smoke resulting in total chaos and appalling sanitary conditions. The beach in front of the hotel is also filthy. Avoid at all costs.

The view from the balcony.

I received something completely different from what was advertised and what I paid for. The accommodation is dirty, poorly maintained, and in a very disappointing condition. The walls have extensive paint damage, the furnishings appear old and worn, and the overall environment is uncomfortable and unpleasant. After I complained, I was moved to another room, but it was virtually the same as the first one, with the only improvement being that it was slightly less dusty. The issues with cleanliness, maintenance, and overall quality remained unchanged. I specifically requested the room shown in the Booking listing, which was the room I based my booking decision on and paid for. However, I was informed that this room was already occupied and unavailable. As a result, the accommodation provided does not match the description, photos, or standard that was advertised at the time of

The beach is right in front of you😍, excellent location in Al Asala and the room was so clean and neat, with a lovely bohemian design, AC and wifi were working perfectly and Ahmad was a wonderful host and helped us through everything, highly recommend it😍

Hervorragender Gastgeber! Obwohl wir nur eine Nacht dirt waren hat er uns einen kate check out ermöglicht! Danje!!

Nichts. Wir. Waren zufrieden.

The room was perfect! Super clean, big and perfect located right at the beach. This area was way more relaxing than the lighthouse area. It was perfect. Also the staff that worked there was super super nice. Definitely going back.

Comfy bed and nice living room, amazing location with very nice sea view and the mountain by your side

When its windy there is loud noise but I have discussed with the owner he said it will be fixed

The view is amazing there and the accommodation is good equipped

Tutto! La posizione ottima, la terrazza bellissima, la stanza perfetta!

Niente

The room was very clean and fully equipped, the location was perfect and the stuff were super helpful. Would definitely recommend this place

מארחים נחמדים מאוד, המגבות והמצעים נעימים מריח הכביסה, אזור שקט אך מרוחק מהמרכז, נוף מדהים ואהבתי את גודל החדר המרווח.

הדוש חייב שיפוץ דחוף, יש חלודה וירקת, המים לא מתנקזים, זרימה חלשה וטמפרטורת המים קיצונית. בנוסף אין היכן להניח את הכלי רחצה מלבד על האסלה וזה לא נעים. המזרן היה לי קשיח מדי.

Die Lage und das Zimmer waren super

Nach anfänglichen Missverständnissen wurden wir zufrieden gestellt das Personal war sehr professionel und hilfsbereit

Very cozy and clean place with super friendly and helpful staff. We had a great time and really enjoyed our stay

Чистота и уют. Очень понравилось отношение персонала

-

Very comfortable with a great view.

La casa está frente al mar y es muy lindo lugar, la terraza está muy buena y muy especial. El dueño es muy tranquilo y nos ayudó mucho en nuestra estadía. De departamento no está en el centro pero está cerca de este.

Incroyable endroit c'est la deuxième fois qu'on y séjourne. Le personnel est très gentil, ils ont accepté de garder nos sacs et de laver nos vêtements sans aucun frais ! Tout était parfait !! La vue depuis la terrasse est magnifique, idéal pour voir un beau coucher ou lever de soleil !

La ubicación es excelente, justo frente al mar y muy cerca de Lighthouse(10min caminando)en una de las zonas con más ambiente de Dahab. Ideal si buscas estar en el centro de todo y salir caminando a restaurantes y centros de buceo.

La almohada era bastante dura y alta, resultó incómoda para descansar bien. Además, había un olor persistente a desagüe en la habitación que puede resultar molesto, especialmente para personas sensibles a los olores.

Veeeery good all

I stayed at Hakuna Matata in Dahab on my own and had an excellent experience. The terrace is amazing, easily my favorite spot to relax, people-watch, and enjoy the view. The rooms felt fresh and new, with new furniture, and everything was clean and comfortable. The place is run by two brothers who were genuinely friendly and extremely helpful. The location is also ideal: it’s in a quieter stretch along the promenade, so you get a calm atmosphere while still having that lively walk-by vibe, and you can easily go for a swim right there. A special thanks as well because they let me hang out at the property until I caught my bus back to Sharm at 9pm, which made the travel day so much easier. Can’t wait to go back.

Nothing. Just a minor tip to add towels and a socket for the boiler in the kitchen.

Troisième séjour à l’Hakuna Matata, la vue et l’accès à la mer sont exceptionnels, le studio bien équipé et confortable. Un excellent choix👍👍👍

Super endroit, en face de la mer la vue est magnifique. Le personnel est très gentil et très poli ! Je vous recommande vivement d'y aller. Repos et vue paradisiaque garanties !

Ospitalità e lo staff disponibile. Un ambiente molto rilassante e fronte mare.

Notthing😪

Location good and the owner is great very helpful and honest

Very clean, nice staff

Excellent location, right beachfront and a lot of cafes/restaurants close by. But at the same time it is quiet to sleep.Room is very clean and nice, new and modern furniture and lot of space in the room. Owner super kind and let us check in earlier and check out later.

Bathroom was a little bit tired, but all was functioning so no problem.

Ein sehr ruhiger Ort perfekt zum Entspannen. Man hört nur leicht das Meeresrauschen und sonst war es sehr still. Das Meer ist direkt vor der Tür. Man kann einfach zu Fuß entlang des Ufers zu den Shops an der Promenade laufen. Der Weg war nicht ganz kurz (ca. 15 Minuten zum Lighthouse), aber dafür wunderschön. Ich habe mich als Alleinreisende sehr sicher gefühlt.

Friendly staff, clean flat with great views.

I loved everything about this place. The location is literally on the seaside road — you wake up feeling like you’re in the middle of the sea. The room was clean, cozy, and had an amazing relaxing vibe. The owners, Ehab, Ahmed, and Ramy, were extremely kind and helpful, and they made the stay feel very personal. I came to clear negative energy and ended up feeling lighter and completely refreshed.

Honestly nothing. My stay was great and the experience exceeded my expectations.

A wonderful view accompanied by the sound of ocean waves.p

Apartamentai atitiko mūsų lūkesčius, gera vieta, šalia jūros. Savininkas paslaugus ir linksmas žmogus. Penktadieni savininko iniciatyva buvo suorganizuotas vakarėlis su užkandžiais ir gaiviaisiais gėrimais.

Friendly, helpful stuff. Very good location.

Super emplacement ! Vue incroyable sur la mer ! Personnel au soin ! Merci 😊

Very pleasant manager, clean room , clean shower

The location is spectacular exactly what I wanted a quiet place. The owners Ehab and ahmed were very friendly and attentive to what we needed.

the mattress and the pillows were not very comfortable, other than that everything was good.

L’hôte est de très bon conseils, il s’est arrangé pour nous trouver les meilleurs plans pour visiter les alentours à des bons prix. Nous avons apprécié sa réactivité et sa volonté de nous faire passer un beau séjour. À notre arrivée nous avons été up-gradés dans la suite au rooftop, elle était neuve et propre.

Certains équipements secondaires, qui pourraient rendre la chambre plus pratique, manquaient comme des portes serviettes, brosse à toilette, portant pour les cintres dans le placard.

C'est notre deuxième séjour à l'Hakuna Matata. Le studio est spacieux et bien équipé, au calme mais tout proche à pied du coeur battant de Dahab et aussi des commerces d'Asala pour faire ses courses et profiter de la vie locale. La literie est très bonne. Surtout, surtout, la vue est à couper le souffle et la plage privée un must ! Nous n'attendons qu'une chose : y revenir en février !

Un peu plus d'assiettes, verres, fourchettes et cuillères serait souhaitable.

الأوض جديده و نضيفه.

The location is excellent and the room was perfect. The owners are very nice and helpful.

Front line with a consistent beach breeze. Close to restaurants within walking distance.

Multiple essential items missing at check in (silverware, dish soap, laundry detergent, towels, tissues, bathroom trashcan) Overall feel of neglect in the home (stained walls, grease sticking to the backsplash in the kitchen, electrical wires sticking out from light fixtures, multiple outlets did not work in 1 bedroom, stained furniture) Broken beach chairs on the properties beachfront area Mirror not provided in master bathroom Kitchen faucet installed on master bathroom sink, was loose the entire stay. Broken shower head one bathroom at check in, had to contact host to provide a new one Pots and pans were provided but had to be cleaned before use because of dust and dirt inside of them

Ahmad, our host, was incredibly kind and helpful. We stayed in a small sea-view studio — it was clean, well-equipped with all the essentials, and the view was stunning. The location is peaceful, yet just a short walk away from livelier, busier spots. I would definitely choose to stay there again.

Spacious Clean Very quiet Good vibes Having all the needed amenities Room with a studio facilities On a walking distance from coffee shops/restaurants/super markets. Beachfront.

Nothing in specific, but if the bathroom would be having a rug that would be an extra..

Amazing location, 20 mins walk along the beachfront to Dahab main strip. Breathtaking 180 degree views over the water and mountains and incredible sunset and sunrise can be seen from balcony. Friendly manager who is helpful and responsive

Pillows are very tough and room curtain needs to prevent light if a nap is needed

The rooms were comfortable and spacious, even better in real life. The location is great - everything you need is within walking distance and the staff are incredibly friendly. Highly recommended.

Room comfortable and clean. Staff were very nice and friendly and close to everywhere
