As always, we felt totally at home at the Eco Lodge. Relaxed diving, intact reefs, delicious food and a smooth operation with action sports!
The hotel attaches great importance to sustainability, which we very much welcome.

As a snorkeler and freediver, I can't rate "diving" very well. But for us it was a great time, great house reef, it is well looked after. Unfortunately, the Zodiac shuttle out of the bay is constantly running and this disturbs the peace and makes for some tight situations at the front of the bay access. Facilities, food, service, people - all great. When the resort is fully booked, it can get quite busy.

Big thanks to DG Kareem & Adel and the whole Dive Center crew!

Unfortunately, in the meantime the Zodiac operation at the house reef is very strong, so that the noise emissions under water have become very unpleasant.
Here a better regulation would be urgently needed, e.g. that the south and north side are served only in alternation (per day or half day).

A French dive guide lady was generally very unfriendly. There was no greeting, it also happened to us that we were yelled at by her, for no visible reason.

The dive center is second to none!
Also perfectly organized, everyone knows what to do at all times. Equipment can be cleaned at any time with clean water and stowed in the assigned lockers. Even in the drying area there is no mess. Each hanger is assigned to a locker so there is usually no searching.
The crew there is very friendly and helpful.
The dive guides are all very capable and know what they are doing. We booked a total of 3 diving trips and felt very well taken care of and safe at all times.
The dive package at the house reef was great and absolutely worth it.
The diving experience at the house reef leaves nothing to be desired. A still very intact coral reef with fantastic colors.
Turtles, rays, moray eels and currently even baby whitetip sharks that show up every now and then on the beach.
What more could you want ...
All around a 5 star vacation we would book again immediately!!!

I would like to see the Zodiacs equipped with nets for short-term garbage fishing, so that you have the chance to pick up and immediately remove washed up garbage from less attentive sea lovers.

The guys of the base have done a super service, the house reef is very nice and v.a. practically waste-free. In the equipment of the dive center only satisfactory, because the places for the customers are rather tight. Not for the storage of the goods, but for the assembly and disassembly of the equipment. But this is not surprising, since there is room for 250 divers in a relatively small space. Therefore, the motto is that everyone should take care of their equipment and not leave it lying around. This is apparently not true for all and is tolerated by the base. Too bad. But otherwise top - would go again.

The dive center has been enlarged again, but when the resort is full, it is still quite crowded. 12 lockers on a bench are too much. Especially when several divers are getting ready or coming out of the water at the same time. The reef is incredibly beautiful, healthy and versatile diving.

(Automatically translated from German)

The first impression with the many divers was: oh shock, a mass dispatch! But quickly we noticed that thanks to the very good organization of the dive center, the many divers* were very well distributed. The first impression disappeared very quickly.
All in all, a very recommendable dive center.

Cozy and well cared for

(Automatically translated from Dutch)

The house reef is nice, but if you want something different, then you can book other diving trips additionally. And these are quite pricey sometimes. The biggest problem is the large number of 8 divers per guide. At Elphinstone, one of our dives completely changed into chaos, because if 4 of the 8 divers go their own way and storm to the depth, the rest is also affected. And despite the promise of 60 minutes of dive time, the 2 of us had to abort our dive after 41 minutes because the rest had emptied their cylinders. And that half failed dive has cost us 30 euros. The day to Dolphin House was fun, and really beautiful sites. On another dive we met dolphins on the way back and they took the time to look at them. The guides are fine, but with large groups you don't start anything if half of them decide to do something else. No guide can do that. But slightly smaller groups would be nice.
Another point of interest and what you only have when you come for the very first time is the first day of diving. You pay for unlimited house reef diving, but that first day is not really unlimited. You have a briefing at 9 o'clock which is mandatory for newcomers (and preferably people who have been there before). If you have been there before you can have a dive before this briefing, but if you come for the first time you have to make 2 guided dives. And the first of those is at 11 am after the briefing and the second at 2 am. So despite the fact that you pay for unlimited diving, the first day of unlimited diving is a big disappointment. We made 2 and sometimes 3 dives of 75-90 minutes before lunch. Here they should apply more of a "you ask, we turn" principle. That people who want to dive fanatically should already have made the 2 obligatory dives in the morning.

The house reef dive sites are varied, lively and beautiful for divers who like to observe and discover the reef independently and do not judge the dives only by the size of the fish seen. For big fish lovers there is Elphinstone.

It was my tenth stay at RSDS Marsa Shagra. And as always I was very satisfied. Only one star I have deducted in the service, because we had to wait more often and longer for a Zodiac or a skipper when diving on the house reef. I know this from previous stays there better organized.
But the tours to Elphinstone or other dive sites were super organized and guided. And I am already planning the next vacation in Shagra. The place offers fantastic dive sites and a great team. We come every year at least once.

(Automatically translated from German)

All processes are designed to get divers underwater quickly and easily, the fact that the zodiacs now almost all have ladders to climb in is great progress. House reef and of course Elphinstone, are wonderful dive sites, as are all the others we visited on boat trips.

(Automatically translated from German)

Very friendly and helpful staff.
It was just a pity that a lot of the dives were on the same spots. Marsa Shagra (with truck) was cancelled for us due to too few registrations. The alternatives were dive sites we had already been to.

(Automatically translated from Dutch)

Dive sites: 1 point deduction, because you can see the large number of divers meanwhile the house reef (unfortunately). Elphinestone and the reefs around Abu Dabbab top!

(Automatically translated from German)

Unfortunately, we had to wait several times for a zodiac that is at 35 ° in the shade with full equipment no pleasure.
With a high occupancy rate, at least 2 zodiacs should be used at peak times.
The equipment for this is available.

fantastic diving vacation -20 years ago also been -better now but always top

(Automatically translated from Dutch)

Helpful and responsive staff at all times. The dive center offers a locker for each diver, so that the dressing and undressing is very easy. The house reef is beautiful. Excursions are offered daily, provided there are at least 6 participants and weather permits.
The zodiacs and the drivers made a very solid impression. Safety is very important.

Always friendly, helpful and very accommodating. This applies to the entire team on site, starting with the issue of the equipment, to the Dive Center to the Dive Shade and the boat guys. Top reviews.

Very relaxed diving, helpful staff, delicious and varied food. Sleeping in the tent near the sea is dreamlike. Very clean.

Very much we liked the house reef and independent diving there. The procedures work very well (unfortunately we had to wait often and too long for other guests). The staff is professional.

Deductions because:
* 1 of 4 dive guides was top motivated in the thing, the others led us safely through the dive.
* Why we jump with 2 boats, 2 groups (12 guests total), 2 guides at the same time at the same place in the water and dive together on the reef is not clear to me.

Busier because of Christmas but still enough space given corona perils. Unfortunately due to strong winds we could not always leave with the zodiac but luckily you could dive on the house reef

(Automatically translated from Dutch)

After 2 years of not flying by Corona we returned to our diving friends. Really enjoyed the people and the diving. It is and remains a super place.

Delightful dive. I was first given a room which was very dusty. Complained to reception and then got the room I was expecting too.

I wanted a short dive course of 2 days was made nice and all papers were signed. Then the diving instructor did not want to. I had lost a whole morning with him. Have also complained to diving school. Further, the dive guides were not good. Did not involve the divers at the dive sites and did not pay attention. A novice diver panicked and the guide didn't see that. Another diver lost his bottle and his buddy had to help and again the guide did not see. The guide did not stay with the group

The dive center and house reef are excellent. The schedule for dives on the house reef are very well organized and you can dive every day from 06:00 to 20:00. Staff are friendly and helpful.

Nitrox is available for an extra charge of EUR 2.00, 15L tanks for EUR 3.00.

Excursions are very well organized and even when there was a problem, it was solved quickly and efficiently.

House reef: at any time, you can dive one of the 6 profiles together with a buddy ... North or south, dive with Zodiac to the outer reef or directly from the beach...
Several excursions a day, both by bus to other bays and by Zodiacs, which are motorized. And there is always time to take a snorkeling break on the way there or back because of dolphins, manatees or whale sharks...

The skills of the dive guides are of course on different levels, but you can dive very well individually without guides.
