Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Good stay! Lovely swimming pool. The rooms was not so great (no water, no hygiene products for example) No diner options available. Light breakfast. Thank you so much for the hospitality at the reception which was great :)

Just had a day diving with Red sea Aqaba with Yaseem as the dive instructor. Great day on the boat with awesome lunch and perfect guidance from Yaseen. He's funny, smart plus super responsible when diving. A man very much more mature than his years. I highly recommend diving with them plus the ratio was 2 guest divers to instructor which was great

I stayed a week et the dive center so my 10 year old son could do his Padi Open Water course and we could dive together . The staff was very patient and caring with him which makes his first contact with the diving world awesome!!! The rooms and the pool are very clean and the staff can bend backwards to meet your needs! The location is about 500m from south beach where you can snorkle. A really great experience.

There is no receptionist almost all the day , and when we asked for extra bed the owner canceled our reservation and told us that he prefer to search for another place with a rude attitude, and there is a bad smell in front of the place plus the dust all over the place , and no hygiene.

I spent 3 nights here at the end of a work trip to Jordan and it was the perfect spot to relax. Omar (the original owner's son) was very helpful and communicative in regards to booking accommodation and diving. I did 4 dives over 2 days and the guides were all excellent. There were divers from a range of abilities (those doing "try dives" and those with open water and advanced certifications) and everyone had their own guide to do dives according to their abilities. Omar took his camera on one of our dives and shared his amazing photos with me. I hired all equipment and it was excellent quality. The fish life, coral, and artificial reefs are all stunning- it's possibly the most beautiful place I've ever dived in the world! The on-site staff are lovely and welcoming. The hotel is very peaceful, well off the beaten track, and feels a world away from the bustle of Aqaba city, though a taxi is only 6 JD. The beach is a few minutes walk from the hotel. Omar's dad started this as one of the first (maybe *the* first?) dive centre in Aqaba- though there's a lot of competition now, I would only return to this centre for their care and professionalism. I traveled there as a single woman and felt completely safe, secure and well looked after. Fellow divers staying in the hotel were very friendly, so there was plenty of socialising by the pool when wanted. WiFi was good by the pool, but only got it sometimes in my room. No alcohol on site, but guests can bring their own from local stores.

We stayed at this resort for 5 nights and truly felt welcomed. Omar, the owner, lined us out on all the best dives sites and we were able to pick the places and days we wanted (all within 5 min drive of the resort). Amazing coral and wreck dives! The whole dive staff was super professional and funny. Quality gear. We loved the location- south beach is way nicer and more woman friendly, and only 6 JOD to get into town. Waking distance to other restaurants close to the beach (10 min walk). The pool was super nice, clean and a fun spot to hang out. Traditional and fresh continental breakfast. And Omar gave us discounted tickets to the water park!! Definitely recommend.

It is 6 years I am in Jordan due to my work and this is the hotel I highly recommend for divers, families and whoever wants to pass a time in Aqaba. The atmosphere and care is great. Long experience as diving centre, so you can trust all guidance for diving. If you never dived, you should try!! Any of the instructors will help you and reassure you. In case you only want to do snorkeling, the best places are very near and you can rent easily the equipment. Hotel is clean and the rooms are very confortable, with big swimming pool. Excellent price/accommodation too.

Clean, efficient, value for money, super friendly, varied dive sites - and safe. I have dived in many places with differing outfits and this is up there amongst the best. Recommended to me on the basis that my friend trusted them to teach his kids to dive, literally with their safety, I did the same; it did not disappoint. We now dive as a family of mixed ability and endurance and this place caters for all our needs. Abdullah and Omar are excellent instructors (with perfect English) and superb and knowledgable guides. Hamza and Zaid are professional, patient and charming too. The variety of dive sites on offer is wide and there is enough for all levels. The lodge itself aimed at the dive market and doesn’t come with all the frills of the 5* fare in Aqaba but is perfect for those who want to dive hard and then chill by a pool at the end of the day. Breakfast and snacks are provided but you need to be able to get into Aqaba for your evening meal. However, this is easy enough to do and there are no shortage of restaurants to cater for every budget and taste within a 15 min radius. In sum, welcoming and well appointed where it counts, this is lodge gem. We find ourselves returning time and again.
