Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1–10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We’re currently testing a weighted review system in Malta, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil, and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an accommodation that you booked through our platform if you stayed there, or if you got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize in detecting fake reviews submitted to our platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and other similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties, and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

The location of the property is perfect. You can easily do 3 dives per day. They have a nice pool and rooftop area. The diving equipment and station is very professional. The rooms are spacious and clean.

United KingdomThe only thing to note is that this area is a 15 min drive from Aqaba downtown so you need a car to get out and about for dinner etc. We preferred this area and the beaches nearby though so more a consideration than a downside.
Comfortable and functional room, stunning pool area, friendly staff and a great diving experience as well. It was also great value for money. I would definitely return!

United KingdomMosquito problem in bedroom, me and my sister were eaten alive. They put mosquito repellent but they did not work, so I think they need to purchase better quality repellent that actually works and kills the blood sucking pests. You have to drive to the beach as it's quite a walk otherwise.
Staff we're amazing, very knowledgeable and friendly made us feel very welcome. Rooms were lovely and spacious with TV and European channels which was a bonus. Breakfast was wholesome and filling, roof terrace perfect to relax and sunbathe. Easy 15 min drive along dual carriage way into city centre.

NetherlandsNo shops or restaurants in the neighbourhood, so make sure you have a car.
A very good and cosy place to stay when you plan to go diving or snorkeling. Staff is super friendly. Good to know: it is about a kilometer to the beach, but when you go diving they of course drive you there. Shore dives are way more practical compared to boat dives. Lovely rooms and a nice pool.

To follow, the bedroom was better than what we expected considering the conditions and the price. We went diving with them and the experience was amazing and the diving instructor was fabulous.

SwedenThere are not so many bars, restaurants and shops in the area, but Aqaba is just 15 min driving.
Very nice and chill hotel and diving centre. The staff was very friendly and informative. The atmosphere was great and the pool area was good. The room was simple but nice, and had a fridge and a kettel. Good breakfast buffé. The place is close to the main places for snorkeling of the Jordanian coast. Our baby was very happy going around the gardens and watching the cats that walk around. Highly recommended place.

United KingdomGreat diving and support team, always happy to help and advise. Easy access to shore dive sites, beautiful rooftop pool and loungers to watch the sunset, 10 minute walk to the beach for dining, 20 minute highway drive to Aqaba itself. Breakfast varied and high quality. Fan and AC made room very comfortable. Very good value accommodation.

BrazilNot that an issue for me, but for the lazy ones: it's a bit far up from the beachside. You can always drive like 2 minutes down and park nearby or walk 12+ minutes but walking back to the hotel you're walking upwards so have that in mind. Good for your legs! The dive sites (not the dive shop - they were great!) were bit meh for me. My friend who went for a fun dive loved it and I guess it's a nice intro for ppl who has no experience to do a shore dive.
The room was very clean and comfy. Staff was friendly and helpful, easy to book the dives as they had a dive shop in house. Cats roaming around were super cute and the sunset views at distance too. They didn't have a laundry service but anything you quickly wash and hang to dry in the clothesline on the back of the rooms would dry pretty quickly. Breakfast was basic but good and pool was enough to chill if you were at the hotel. Alternatively if you wanted to tan a bit, you could go to the areas on top of the rooms with a towel for a bit more privacy...

NetherlandsThe walk to the beach isn’t great, needing to go through an underpass and across a big (although quiet) road. This isn’t the property’s fault!
This B&B was a great find. A short walk from South Beach (10 mins downhill and 15 uphill) it had a lovely pool and other chill out areas, with friendly staff. The breakfast was decent (tea, coffee, toast, jams, cake plus more local fare) and overall great value for money. We didn’t dive while there so can’t comment on that but plenty of other guests were going for dives.

EstoniaThe hotel is located in the southern part of Aqaba, the so-called on the Aqaba South Beach, a short drive from the city center. We recommend the hotel to anyone who wants a quiet, cozy stay away from the city noise and whose goal is to get to know the underwater world of the Red Sea during their trip to Jordan. The best snorkeling and diving spots are right near this hotel. (a very short drive away, where there is a free beach and parking with showers and toilets). You can get very thorough instructions from the hostess of the hotel. The room is large and spacious. The bed is very comfortable and wide.

The team was extremely knowledgeable, and friendly, and made me feel safe and comfortable throughout the entire dive. The equipment was top-notch and the dive sites were breathtaking. Imagine spacious and clean rooms, a familiar atmosphere and varied breakfasts. Perfect to unwind after work and I highly recommend Arab Divers to anyone looking for a fantastic diving experience. Thank you for an unforgettable adventure.
