    A wonderful place where you can comfortably put on your bathing suit and enjoy the sun and the sea. The corals start just a few meters from shore and you can swim over and around them without special equipment. Swimming goggles and swimming shoes are enough. Free shuttle service to the beach from Aqaba hotels (or nearby) is provided - three buses in the morning and three back in the late afternoon. It is only necessary to call the Sindbad Berenice agency a day in advance and specify the place and time. The entrance ticket is only 13 dinars, which includes a free sunbed, umbrella and towel, hot water showers and changing rooms. The pool bar has very reasonable prices, food is also available. The music is pleasant, quiet and unobtrusive.

    Stone beach, nice snorkeling. Terrible food, poor service. Would not go again. We had to wait 45 minutes for food. Food quality not good. Place seems old.

    Excellent beach club, great activities
    Had a brilliant time at Berenice beach club! Seven (Mohammed) was brilliant at organising the games such as darts, petang, volleyball, water polo. Only tip I would give, having won the darts tournament, is that maybe an alcoholic drink prize, instead of a fruit smoothie would be better appreciated 🤣 All the same, had a great time! Would recommend 👌
    Dear Guest, Thank you for your feedback! We're thrilled to hear that you had a brilliant time at Berenice beach club, We appreciate your positive comments about Mohammed, and we're glad you had a great time overall and appreciate your recommendation. We hope to welcome you back soon! Have a nice day,

    Worth the money
    We were unsure whether to visit a free public beach or pay for a private one. In the end we opted for a private one, and our hotel advised Berenice. We were happy with our choice, it was worth the 23 JOD. This included transport to the beach and back, towels, access to private beach and swimming pools, a sightseeing and snorkeling trip on a boat, and activities such as darts, zumba and water polo. You were allowed to take in your own water, but no other drinks or food. Food and drinks were expensive for Jordan, but comparable to at home (Belgium). I've been on better outings by boat, but for the price it was definitely decent.
    Dear Guest, Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We're pleased to hear that you chose Berenice Beach Club and found it worthwhile. We appreciate your feedback on the food and drink prices, and we strive to offer fair and competitive rates while maintaining high-quality offerings. We understand that preferences may vary. Your valuable input helps us improve, and we're committed to providing exceptional value for our guests. We hope to welcome you back for another enjoyable visit in the future. Have a nice day!

    Splurge beach day
    Visited on a day pass. 13 JD for a shuttle ride and access to their resort. No food or drink allowed inside. Shuttles back to the city are quite late so you are in for a long day if you don't hire your own taxi back. Food and drink are expensive for Jordan but that is to be expected with a resort. Pool and beach area are pleasant and clean.

    Great place, spoilt by bus trip back to hotel
    Lovely location on the edge of the Red Sea. Very clean and good for swimming off the beach. Snorkeling ok, not the best we’ve done but ok. The day was spoilt however by a very rude and aggressive bus driver on the return to our hotel. Refused to take us to the hotel where we were picked up from in the morning. Instead almost threw us off the bus about 1km from the hotel. No direction given where the hotel was. We were the last guests on board and there were two female staff members left on board.
    Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience at our beach. We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the lovely location and found the beach clean and suitable for swimming. We sincerely apologize for the unfortunate incident during your return journey. Your feedback about the bus driver's behavior is deeply concerning and certainly not reflective of the level of service we aim to provide. Please rest assured that we take such matters seriously. We understand the importance of a smooth and respectful transportation experience, and we regret that your journey back to the hotel did not meet your expectations. Your feedback is invaluable in helping us address and rectify any shortcomings in our service. Once again, we apologize for any inconvenience caused, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for a more positive transportation experience in the future. Have a nice day!

Let me start by saying that beach access in Aquaba for tourist is terrible. Two possible beaches are 10km away from the city and verrry expensive.
Our hotel had a private beach which turned out to be 13jd drive+beach cost per person. You leave at 11 and can only get back at 19:30 or by taxi. When you arrive they take all food and drink that you brought with you to be forced to spend even more money for something small to eat to last all day locked in there. There is loud and terrible music everywhere you go, it is not even arabic is just some old spanish hits or terrible english pop. Access to water is rocky and the coral reef is just bunch of rocks and maybe some dead corals. When we were there it was so windy that you could barely stand and the sand was beating you, so we had to be by the pool. A lot of chairs are broken in some way.
Otherwise is clean and the pools are okay, but that certainly isn’t for what we came.

Dear Dana ,thank you for having the time to drop us your few lines ,allow me please to share with you the Management point of view. _ The no Food and drinks policy is written on our page on TripAdvisor very clear ,we admit that the financial issue is part of the reason ,although our prices are published and very reasonable but the main reason for the no food and beverage policy is the insurance conditions ,due to the fact the food poising that could happen if the gust brings food or beverage from outside needless to mention the heat of the sun in Aqaba. - regarding the buss shuttle is a free shuttle that we offer our guests as a privilege and its not mandatory . - Regarding the rocks and the rocky entrance ,Berenice beach club is the only beach club right in the heart of the marine park and coral reef and we built a 60 m peer with comfortable stars for our valuable guests and to protect the coral from being stepped on . we hope to have someday back to Berenice and hoping you will see some improvements. Best regards

I don’t recommend this place - we decided to go here for snorkelling so we would have a deck chair and place for lunch but really regretted it. They will charge you for absolutely everything. Our local guide had to stop briefly outside to drop us off and they charged him for parking. There is an entry fee, even though the sun loungers are no better than the ones on south beach. Then they charged us to rent snorkel gear - they even charged the different pieces of gear separately. Once we got the gear we wanted to snorkel to the Japanese garden which is just out from the beach but then we were told we couldn’t because there was a barrier. The beach club said they couldn’t let us go outside the barrier for our own safety and instead the only way we could snorkel there is to pay for one of their glass bottom boat rides (which we didn’t even want to do) when we could have just swam off the public beach. In the end we have up and agreed to pay - and they even made us pay again for new snorkel equipment on the boat because apparently the equipment we already rented had to be paid for separately because it was only for the beach… We ended up spending a total of 46 Dinah per person to do something we could have done for free off south beach.

We genuinely appreciate your thoughts, as it helps us understand our guests' perspectives and improve our services. Firstly, we would like to clarify that we do not have any parking fees at our premises. It is possible that your guide may have collected your entrance fees to pay on your behalf, and we apologize for any confusion this may have caused. You may double-check with him again to confirm the details. Regarding the snorkeling activities, we want to assure you that all information about the extra fees for snorkeling is clearly stated on our website, social media channels, and price lists. We strive to offer affordable entrance fees to allow guests access to our facilities, and the snorkeling experience comes as an additional service for those who wish to avail of it. The issue you mentioned about the snorkeling area and the barrier is related to the safety protocols we strictly follow.

These measures are in place to ensure the well-being of our guests, and we apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused during your visit. We sincerely regret that your experience did not meet your expectations, and we understand your concerns. Please know that we take all guest feedback seriously, and we will use your comments to enhance our services and communication with our visitors. Sincerely, The Management Team

Entry was included in the 20JD 2-hour glass bottom boat and snorkeling trip. Free shuttle from Aqaba, nice big pool towels, and hot showers are included (BYO soap). Pools in early March were to cold for swimming, but sea was fine.

Music was great! Lots of beach so you could get as far away from it as you like.

Wish we had taken an earlier shuttle to do more of the activities.

The beach and sea are nice. Whatever you do don't book snorkeling with them. Boat staff very unprofessional. They took us out for snorkeling, there were high currents and all people in the water started drifting far away from boat. Took some time before they realize this and went with speed boat to gather the 15 people who almost drowned including my girlfriend! Some people threw away their snorkeling masks to save themselves and other people. When we reached back to the dock one lady was waiting with a card pos machine to charge people who threw the masks!! No consideration at all for their plight! If you come here stay only at the beach!

Visited that beach last summer and enjoyed every thing about it including the setup , the service and the beach especially for snorkeling and diving . The food was ok and the price for entry was reasonable given the fact it includes the shuttle bus cost from Aqaba to the south beach . I do recommend it for all

An outstanding concept place
26 km is Jordan’s coastline. The country was mercilessly hit by the Corona pandemic.( just like other countries around the World)
On this 26 km long coastline, a beautiful concept emerged, preserving the Read Sea treasures, keeping their little beach pristine clean. If you prefer swimming pool this is the place.( solar heated )
They managed to combine the Middle East tradition with Western habits. I would say everyone will find his or her spot .
First class dive club , and possibilities for snorkeling. The restaurant is a chapter for itself, we tasted seafood pasta, which was 5/5.
We would say, taking into consideration the huge impact of corona, we are impressed by the staff, the positive energy which you will find here.
A beautiful hide away.

Again i am writing review for the second time around for almost similar story as history repeat itself. Went for night coral viewing a month ago and forgot my wallet in the boat, I have not noticed that something was missing until the staffs called me as the captain of the boat found my wallet and we organized to meet at Tala Bay gate after his shift and humbly returned my purse back to me.

Rest assured your always in good hands with polite and very good people here.

I gave one star because of how underwhelming the beach is for the price, the swimming pool is decent but most of the sun lounges were taken. The pictures don't even correlate to how the beach looks, the sand is rocky and not white like presented in the photos. Yamani beach which is about 1km away is even better with free entry, it has a nice coast with no rocks and free showers. Overall I wouldn't recommend this place, its way too overpriced for what you receive and the pictures look nothing like reality.
