5 Star experience.
I had the most magnificent stay at Bedouin Moon. I cannot fault anything. The staff were like family and brought so much joy into my experience. The hotel was constantly clean and my room was great. I loved the buffet breakfast. Lots of different spaces to relax, be alone or meet others. I will return for sure, it was just perfect. Shukran

Outstanding
We are a family of four with two teenage boys. The staff at Bedouin Moon made our stay very relaxing. Each day we started with a delicious fresh breakfast and returned to our rooms to find a towel sculpture on the bed. A different design each day created by Wael or Mohammed. Great location on the edge of Dahab with views towards Saudi Arabia. Outstanding coral diving/snorkelling locations right on the doorstep. Highly recommended

Dear Sir, First of all, thank you for having chosen our hotel for your stay in Dahab! We are really sorry about what happened to you concerning your belongings. We can, however, assure you that it was not stolen at the hotel. We never had any theft at all because the safety of our guests and their belongings is our top priority. Besides we do have cameras and security monitoring the whole place 24/7 and the keys are only accessible by the housekeeping responsible for your room and no one got in except him and we did verify that by checking the cameras recordings. You reported to the reception that part of your money and AirPods were missing which can be easily lost anywhere, Mr. Nasser the Manager on duty did his best to help you and to fulfill all your requests instantly, you did request to search the accommodation of the housekeeper in question and his belongings and you did but we didn’t find any trace for your missing stuff. We do value our guests and our staff and all the reviews are the highest on staff. Once again we are sorry that your missing airpods, but it certainly did not disappear at our hotel. We are always doing our best in order to help our guests in case of a problem. Best Regards, Mohamed Mosaad Bedouin Moon Management

For the price paid I could not have asked for more. We were in a 3ppl bedroom. The AC was great. Room was basic and nice. Nice view to the mountains. The breakfast was great, and I was especially blown away by the honest and caring service. Location nice, by the beach and away from the hustle and bustle of downtown but a short ride away. I will def be back!

We enjoyed our stay at the hotel, it's good for relaxation and some quiet time. It's in the middle between Mashaya "the shops area" (around 25 min.s walking distance) and the Blue hole (15 min.s by car) The location is amazing where the beach was right infront of us but it wasn't a good spot for swimming/snorkeling and the mountains behind us. Our standard twin room with sea view was relaxing with basic needs. Wael used to make sure that the room is clean and he was really helpful. The whole staff were friendly. The only thing that I didn't like was the food, the breakfast was really bad that we tried it once and never again.

The architecture and grounds, especially the pool, are great. It has a really relaxed, cool feel to the hotel. For the price, the space is probably what you would expect. We didn't need much, as we were just staying for one night after climbing Mt. Sinai. The pool was fantastic, but the beach area left a lot to be desired. The cushions are mostly on the ground and covered with ants. There are a few chairs with cushions and umbrellas, but not much space to lounge unless you want to be on the ground. If you don't mind that, the space is nice! We had a hard time getting towels in our room, and the legs of one of the beds kept falling off anytime my friend shifted position in the night. Apart from this, the space was nice for such a cheap price.

The hotel has everything you need from fresh food in the mornings to the loving staff thats willing to help you with anything. The location is perfect with its beach front property and its just a short walk away from central dahab and the blue hole. The unique lay out of the hotel allows for a fun atmoshpere while also allowing for privacy if you want. But its the amazing employees that make blue moon a true dahab experience. I recommend this hotel to everyone travelling to dahab.

Thotel surrounded by mountains and sea!
I studied many hotels before choosing this one and I can honestly say after choosing the Bedouin Moon that I was not disappointed. It is located on the outskirts of town- just far enough to be surrounded by the natural tranquility of Dahab and close enough to walk downtown in 15 minutes. As soon as I walked in the manager graciously upgraded me to a sea view room. The flavor of the hotel is very Bedouin and is nicely laid out with sea right in front of you and awesome mountains towering behind. The rooms are very pretty, decorated in Bedouin style but with nice touches. There is even a nice swimming pool nicely situated on a hill in the grounds in back. The staff were extremely helpful and one other thing I have to add- the food at this place was excellent. One of the best breakfasts I have seen anywhere- omelette, fruit, bread, yoghurt, break, honey, etc, etc...I ate my other meals here as well and they have a very good chef. My visit was during Ramadan which makes me even more appreciative of the way the staff sincerely saw to my every need. This is an absolutely lovely hotel and one that is fortunately, very affordable. In my opinion, its worth every penny. You won't be disappointed with this one!

great stuff and relaxed hotel
Bedouin Moon is located 30 minutes walk from the commercial area of Dahab. A very relaxed walk either on the beach or the main road. The main road will go through the Asala square, about 20 minutes from the hotel. Taxi is very cheap, so access was convenient. Stuff is very helpful and kind, excellent. The backyard is very nice done with a Bedouin style fire place near the mountain. Egyptian breakfast and food in general were very tasty. As almost anywhere in Dahab there are couple of dogs and cats there, however they are really friendly, kids were playing with them ..so they are the good kind :). There is a decent beach patch in front of the hotel with good snorkeling. All in one, a very good stay at Bedouin Moon Hotel.

Nice, calm
The hotel is located between the beach and the mountains which makes the location perfect. It’s around 10-15 min from the city center by foot. The staff is nice and helpful although we ordered food first night and never arrived. Food a bit overpriced for the quality as well as the trips/taxis to move around. Ps: they don’t serve alcohol

Nice owner, terrible staff
The Bedouin Moon Hotel is located on the way to famous Blue Hole in Dahab. At first sight hotel looks beautiful, specially the swimming pool surrounded by mountains and beautiful small park. The owner is wonderful lady, and her love for animals is noticeable in the hotel. Many dogs and cats everywhere around. Two types of rooms - mountain view and sea view. There are no windows in mountain view rooms. For sea view there are additional fees. We payed additional 60 le per day for sea view room. The receptionist refused to give us a receipt (printer wasn't working) Rooms are poorly equipped. Bathroom small, water salty. Many things were not working properly. There is wifi available in the hotel. Breakfast same everyday, there is no open buffet. In our 6 days stay, no one cleaned the room, no one replaced towels. When we complained about that, they told us we should ask for cleaning - it's the policy of the hotel. But no one told us about this policy when we first arrived. Bad surprise at checkout time. Additional costs. Charge for morning coffee served with breakfast. No one informed us that coffee is not included in breakfast. All in all, we enjoyed our time in Dahab. We enjoyed peaceful atmosphere, beautiful surroundings, but if the hotel management don't make some changes, we will not stay at Bedouin Moon again.

Thank you, Mr. Yasser for your feedback, first of all, it's really a pleasure to have you at our Hotel. Regarding the extra fee of the Sea-view, it's obvious that Sea-view always has a higher rate than other-views and this is not a hidden fee. We do offer a-la-carte not open buffets and this is stated clearly on Expedia and hot beverages are not free as per our check-in agreement. We do promise major changes in terms of hotel renovations and price-structure and overall service by this Summer and we would like that you drop us a visit when you are in Dahab and we will be more than happy to compensate you. Thank you and looking forward having a 5-stars from you soon :)

Lovely owner with terrible staff
Stayed for 5 or 6 nights. Room was never cleaned and the towels never changed! Not once! Was asked if I wanted to upgrade my room. I agreed and paid but they refused to give me a receipt for the 300 pounds I paid. At the end of my stay I was asked to pay for the coffees we had at breakfast!!! They wanted to charge coffee when breakfast was included in the rate I paid through Expedia!!! My subjective assessment is that the owner, a sweet South African lady, is unaware of what her staff is doing.

Edge of town but worth it
Huge beautiful hotel across the street from the beach and snorkeling. Beautiful swimming pool overlooking the sea and views of the mountains of Saudi Arabia. Large spacious comfortable rooms. A bit far to walk from town but taxis are very cheap. I would rather stay there where it is more peaceful and quiet and beautiful than in the busy touristy town. Better to visit the town and stay here. Friendly and helpful staff. Many friendly dogs. Felt safe with a guard and metal detector at the door.

This is the second time I have stayed at the Bedouin Moon and I enjoyed it very much. The food is great and although it is about 20 minutes walk to the centre of Dahab town it wasn't a problem. There are people around to drive you in a taxi into town or on excursions and the owner and staff are all very friendly. It will not be my last time!

Perfect location for Yoga and Scuba Diving
I've come to the Bedouin Moon Hotel for the second time. The atmosphere is very welcoming and friendly. Most people go to the Bedouin Moon to do some yoga and / or to do scuba diving. The world class dive club reef 2000 is on site of the hotel, which makes arranging diving trips really easy. Food is delicious, don't miss out on the pancakes. I had most of my meals by the open fire in the courtyard of the hotel where many of the guests gather in the evening and it's the perfect place for a chat with fellow visitors and for making new friends. About Dahab: I felt it is a very safe place, security precautions have been taken by the local authorities and I would not hesitate to go there again. The local population is exceptionally friendly.

Better finished more central options available
Even at this price there are better more central places to stay in Dahab. Unfortunately Bedoiun Moon was too far out for my needs, which is no fault of the hotel but the room was also poorly furnished even at this price and moving to another another hotel in the centre turned out to be financially painful. Depite the Bedouin Moon not being at capacity I lost 50% of my 12 night stay booking after just one night, I would have accepted 2-3 nights as fair as would some of the locals I've spoken with. I understand the local economy is suffering but fleecing the tourists that do come here and hiding behind 3rd party T&C's leaves a slightly bitter taste in the mouth.

Great divers/yoga hotel.
On beach with a great pool area, superb dive centre (Reef 2000) and very friendly staff. Single travellers will meet others and make friends as soon as they arrive (if they want to) and it soon feels like you are with family. The location is great for diving on the road to the Blue Hole and Canyon. It has a super house reef. The food is simple but well cooked and very tasty. Breakfast is buffet style with a cooking station for eggs etc. Free WIFI is available in the bar area and some rooms close to it.

Pleasant Stay
Stayed four nights on which we dived with the on site dive center which was very covienent. Addressing hotel specifically it is on he North end of town an inexpensive taxi rise away from the centre (wouldn't reccomend walking). Staff all friendly mixture of Bedouin and English/German and rooms were OK...a little small but not uncomfortably so. Visited the pool once and was OK although not heated and very cold in April. Hotel has a small beach out front with private sun beds but access to the sea is limited due to rocks. Restaurant was very reasonable and comparable if not better to anything in town.

Lovely friendly hotel
I went as a lone female traveller and had a fantastic time diving and doing yoga at the hotel. The dive centre is first class, they are very safety conscious and provide a professional, friendly service. The yoga was also wonderful and I met lots of other women who were staying at the hotel and travelling alone for a week of relaxation. The hotel itself is great value for money, the rooms are clean and simple, with pretty balconies and domed roofs. I stayed in a mountain view room which did actually have a bit of sea view and was quieter than some of the sea view rooms which are closer to the road. The food is excellent and the pool area is beautiful. Had an incredible week, thank you Bedouin moon hotel and Reef 2000 staff for an amazing holiday!

Excellent hotel for Dahab holiday
We stayed in the Bedouin Moon for a week in March, and had a great stay. The rooms were lovely and quiet at night, very clean and private. The staff are very accomodating, and helpful, and we really enjoyed our stay. The pool and yoga room are probably the best features, and having been to Dahab previously, I'd say this is probably one of the best hotels in the price range. We received a warm welcome, and were well looked after for the stay. The only factor that could be improved is the quality of the mosquito nets which were quite worn out.

Rooms with a view!
We originally booked 3 nights at the Bedouin Moon but extended or stay twice. Originally we were concerned that it was slightly out of town but this to proved a bonus as was so peaceful! The seaview rooms are lovely and we spent many an hour chilling on the balcony which overlooked the Red Sea just a few metres away. The staff were fantastic and restaurant food great. Loved the pool which was really quiet with superb views. Town is only a short taxi drive away (15 - 20LE) or can be walked in 20 mins.
