About Red Sea Relax

Located in the beautiful Bedouin village of Dahab, surrounded by golden beaches and traditional bazaars, Red Sea Relax has been offering affordable Egyptian diving holidays since 2003, and now has two decades of experience in the region and six PADI “Recognition of Excellence” awards. The resort is situated just metres from some of Dahab’s most renowned reefs, with the famous Lighthouse dive site just offshore, and many more beyond. In 2018, Red Sea Relax expanded their menu of affordable adventures, operating muti-day safaris out of Hurghada, on board a beautiful budget-friendly liveaboard. 

Red Sea Relax prides itself on delivering a friendly atmosphere, quality facilities, and very affordable diving. Having already earned the nickname of the Lighthouse Hilton, this resort has since improved its on-site accommodation, creating some of the best quality options in Dahab. With these modern, comfortable rooms wrapping around a glistening pool, Red Sea Relax seems to have hit upon a winning formula of luxury-like facilities for bargain prices. And, as a small family operation, the resort’s dedicated staff provide a highly-personal service, and are only too happy to ensure all your holiday needs are immediately tended to. 

Explore the resort

The on-site restaurant includes a lounge and a rooftop terrace with stunning views of Dahab’s Bay. As well as a breakfast buffet, guests can also choose from a range of quality international dishes at other times of the day. An on-site sports bar and grill is regarded as one of the best bars in Dahab, providing the perfect spot to savour a cool beer or smooth juice cocktail. Guests can also relax on the resort’s beach area, which is furnished with comfortable sun loungers, or at a table while enjoying hot and cold drinks from Nunu’s Beach Cafe. 

Red Sea Relax offers a variety of double, twin, triple and family rooms designed to be light, airy and comfortable. Spread over the ground and upper floors, each room features an en-suite bathroom and a private terrace with sea or pool views. While staying here, guests have complimentary access to the neighbouring gym and steam rooms - just pick up your pass from reception. Other complimentary on-site activities include snorkelling and kayaking. Plus, the resort’s helpful staff can also arrange activities further afield, including quad biking, rock-climbing, and Cairo excursions.
