Bedouin Valley Eco Resort

The Lodge is in a great location on top of a hill with fantastic views over the sea a 20 minute walk away. . The beach is gorgeous and you can see turtles if you're lucky. The Lodge provides an excellent breakfast and dinner as the the location is quite far from any restaurants apart from one on the beach. But that's part of its charm! Oir rooms were spacious and comfortable. The owner was very helpful and organised a jeep safari to Wadi El Gamal around 40 kilometres south. It's an absolutely stunning place. Don't miss it. This is our second visit.

Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo. La gentilezza del proprietario, che parla un buon inglese, è un valore aggiunto . Ho apprezzato la pace e il silenzio del posto: era il modo in cui volevo vivere il deserto , in solitudine e relax. Ottimi i pasti (colazione e cena): cibi semplici e genuini, la sobria e vera cucina egiziana. Il mare di fronte alla struttura è davvero bello, con un reef notevole.

La struttura è spartana ma i servizi che offre sono coerenti con il prezzo che è vantaggioso.

This was a perfect place for peace, relaxation, and good food. We were made to feel welcome and enjoyed the company of Wael, the owner, and the kind attention by Ashraf, his employee. Food was generous, fresh, authentic, and varied. Lovely fish, tahini sauces, herb enriched salads, vegetables, fuls, soups, soft feta like cheese, etc. Breakfast and dinner were sufficient, and we didn't need lunch. Wael organises trips, so we got to snorkel different areas, including the famous Ros Hankorab beach. The local Tondoba a beach has facilities and plenty of fish on the reef. There's no bar, but Wael is happy to keep your drinks cold in his fridge if you want to bring your own. This place is perfect to escape the madding crowd, piped music, drunk tourists, and general business of most resorts. After conversations about spices and food, Wael took us into Marsa Alam to the Spice and Oils shop and helped us choose spices to take home. 😊. He also treated us to the Egyptian lliver sandwich, which was surprisingly delicious. A highlight was swimming with dolphins, a trip we'd arranged beforehand but something Wael can arrange for you. He can also arrange swimming with dugongs and turtles. There were 3 lovely well-behaved dogs and beautiful cats. If you're a pet lover, you will love these. If not, they won't bother you.

The place is rather old and tired. Beds firm but comfortable. Our room was large and kept clean. Towels are small. We were provided extra pillows, and a dodgy shower was fixed as soon as we reported it. Don't expect perfection - it's not spanking new. After all, it is only a 2-star hotel. But it fitted our needs for peace and quiet, and our host was fantastic. If you want entertainment and luxury, go elsewhere, but if you want good food and a peaceful break, this is the place to come.

Very kind and helpful owner! Remote and peaceful place to relax!
