we were here 1st march 2012, so there was no one else here...but we thought it would be easier to stay near the port, so it would be easier to get to the ferry.
the hotel itself was fine, though our bathroom could have been cleaner.
the STAFF is my biggest problem.
the Manager did not even know when the ferries run.
we arranged a taxi the night before to collect us and take us to the ferry port.
the morning to leave, he tells us after breakfast the ferry is to leave 1 hour earlier, 10am instead of 11am.....WHY HE FAILS TO MENTION THIS EARLIER IS BEYOND ME.
so we need to leave immediately...then he tells us the taxi is NOT coming.
and that we should now HITCH-HIKE down the road outside the hotel!!!!!
HOW DANGEROUS!!!
buses in egypt are not even running due to the kidnappings in Sinai, and this guy wants us to hitchhike, 2 women alone??!!
by this time, we are angry, and have to yell at him, to get us a cab.
finally we get out of there, and he has the nerve to say, please come back again...
by the way there is nothing in Nuweiba, dont stay here, keep driving!!!

Rooms are often without blanket, once you ascertain one; you get to make your own bed. Watch out for the hole in the blanket too, you don’t want that anywhere critical! Also strongly recommend you check if the room is occupied before settling in, I am not joking – I have been given an occupied room. Distance from beach/rooms to dining hall will give you your day’s exercise; make sure you set off in time to reach the spartan hours of service.

we have been there in july 2010 ... so please if nothing is changed do not go there
although the beach is beautiful...wide and clean and empty...so is the coral reef - clean and beautiful...the hotel is dirty with capital D!
