Fabulous! Another great choice of diving resort from Oonas Divers Cannot praise the place enough. Umbi has everything you want from a dive village; professional staff, warm and friendly welcome, great food, easy access to the house reef. Choice of diving is exceptional with many famous sites in easy reach using the day boats from the nearby jetty. Shore diving,... More

Cannot overstate how friendly this place is, you only go here for the diving, and this is one of the best places around. The day boats are excellent, the guides know their stuff. The food on the boats is great. The fish retsurant at Sharks bay is good, the food even better. Alex at the dive centre was more than... More

i booked my two week dive holiday with oonaseadivers who i can't praise highly enough, they tailor made my holiday to suit my needs, it was fantastic value for money, and they couldn't have been more helpful! Sharks bay umbi village is super chilled out- if you are looking for a holiday that solely consists of diving, chilling by the... More

This is the second time we have stayed at Umbi Dive Village, and as divers, we find it near perfect for our sport. The rooms are spacious, well fitted (redecorating was going on as we were there) and as you walk down to the beach (100mtrs) and straight on to the waiting dive boats, ideal. no long bus trips, or...

We stayed here in May 2011, went for 10 nights and even upgraded our room tot he one with the Jacuzzi bath on the balcony - that we would have said was not so good as the water pressure meant it took nearly and hour to fill. The Umbi diving village is really great, chilled out and relaxed place to... More

We did not have time for an extended stay but did not want to miss snorkeling in the Red Sea. We chose this place because of the onsite coral reef, saving us the need for a boat trip. E-mail correspondence with the hotel was efficient. Airport ransfer arranged by the hotel was not cheap but reliable and fast. We were... More

We stayed for two weeks at Umbi. I dive, my wife swims but does not snorkel, so we were hoping to find something that met both our requirements. We booked the Bedouin Village, but as we booked very late we had to agree to spend one night in a beach cabin as all the rooms were booked. Not a problem... More

My main reason for visiting Umbi Village was to go diving and accommodation was secondary on my list of priorities. I was nicely surprised when I saw the simplicity but quality of the room and the outstanding service. Prices are affordable and there is a range from the more expensive –although still good prices- for the Bedouin Village room with... More

We stayed a week at UMBI Diving Village at the beginning of October. The weather was just wonderful, hot – but not uncomfortably so. Quiet, relaxing environment -our Bedouin room was spacious and had a great view. The furniture is in need of upgrade, but the bed was very comfortable and the room was scrupulously cleaned every day. Lots of... More

One of the best places to go if you are interested for diving. Even though this is not a 5 Star hotel, people there treat like one. The diving center is fantastic. All people are very friendly and helpful more than you can ask. From reservation to execution everything was perfect. They have their own Jetty there so there is... More
