Great location right on the sea and a short walk from the main shopping/restaurant area. Restaurant is amazing...tastiest and cheapest we could find in Dahab with a great balcony and beautiful views. Rooms were clean and comfortable. The dive shop is relaxed, user friendly, all staff were great and diving was crazy cheap! All staff are friendly, helpful and can... More

I stayed only 1 night here, but will be back for sure. The room was spotlessly clean, including fresh clean sheets. The cafe is just 1 minute from your room, and one step off its outer wall and you are swimming over the house reef. Service was polite and informative. The five centre staff were also very helpful providing information... More

First off we went for the room with a balcony with sea views. The first room we had the shower head was not connected. Also the AC did not work, we talked to them about this and they had the parts to fix both (why didn't they?) the second room was a good size but we ha a broken window... More

Essentially the Pingouin Village is well situated on the waterfront, the rooms are clean and the price was right for our budget. But, some anoying details made our stay less than memorable. To begin with, we had the loudspeakers of the restaurant right in front of our "sea view" room; it was so loud that we couldn't hold a normal... More

Booked my dive package here and qualified for a discounted room or free bed in the dorm. Selected the twin room for £3.50 per night and that's about as cheap as a private room can get. Okay the room was basic with just 2 beds and a fan but just as a place to sleep its amazing value. Separate shower... More

Three friends and me went to the penguin village this february and we really enjoyed our stay there. The hotel all together gives a nice, relaxing and welcoming atmosphere. The rooms are totally fine compared to the price you´re paying and from the attending restaurant you´ve got a beautiful view on the ocean. Beside that the staff was incredibly friendly,... More

I stayed at Penguin 6 years ago, and was very pleased with location, facilities and service, including its dive shop, so I convinced some friends of staying there during a trip during December 2012. Unfortunately this visit was a disappointment: Penguin Village is well located (not in the middle of the noise of the shops and restaurants, but a short... More

Two friends and me spent a week at the Penguin Village and had a great experience! Well located on the quietest part of Dahab thus has an easy access to all the amenities. Good vibe with a mix of backpackers and divers together. Rooms are quite basic, though clean and comfortable enough to have a good shower and rest, all... More

I have been in Dahab quite a lot of times and also lived there for underwater research. As a tourist I always stayed with the Penguin Hotel, the staff was real nice before and food was great. Not this time. Due to new salaries for the staff they disappeared and a new unexperienced crew work at this hotel now, also... More
