    We did a full-day snorkelling trip with a boat. We were together with a few scuba divers on the boat. We set out from Ayla Marina and came back in about 4 hours. We stopped at a coral reef and snorkeled for about half an hour and then we stopped at a plane wreck and snorkeled there for another half an hour. We were provided with masks, snorkels and fins. We then had lunch on the boat and the food was quite delicious. Staff were very friendly and gave us tips and ideas to get the most out of the trip. We enjoyed ourselves a lot and I can fully recommend the snorkelling trip!

    Located a bit outside of town, this hotel gives you cheap accommodation and an amazing diving experience at the same time. Rooms were a bit run down but the overall hotel is okish. In the very low price, breakfast was included as well - don’t expect a lot, but hey, again: compared with the price, amazing value! If you’re booking directly with the resort you’ll get combos of overnight stays and dives for a very reasonable price

    Basic hotel with good dives around. Dive masters were nice, equipment was ok - some issues but fixed quickly. The hotel is good for a few nights stay, the staff is nice. It matches the price exactly. Would go back!

    I was impressed with the thoroughness of the details provided during the pre-dive briefing. The generous amount of information made me feel more confident in my dive. Having a dedicated diver with me throughout the dive was reassuring. They also offered complimentary underwater pictures, which was a nice gesture. The equipment and suits were in good condition, and the resort accommodation prices were reasonable. The rooms were clean and tidy. Based on my experience, I would recommend this diving center.

    Service could be better the staff are not trained. It was an OK Regarding the rooms and the food. The big problem was asking Documents proof that my Wife and I are married 🤦 and they didn't want us to be in one room unless we proof it. I will Never go there again.

    We appreciated the kind staff who made our first dive an exciting adventure. Ali went out of his way to make us feel prepared for the dive. He checked up on us throughout the dive to make sure we were still doing okay. The underwater sites were tops! I’d definitely tell friends about this company for their first dives.

    The hotel is simple, but has everything what you need (even a rooftop terrace). A great spot if you came for diving. They arrange everything and bring you to diving locations, so you don’t have to worry about anything. Price was also good. P.S. Swimming pool is not very big, but deep and can be a saviour from the heat.

    We went diving with them and was one of the best experiences we had during our time in Jordania. We contacted them just one day in advance and they did everything possible to take us to the water. The equipment was in the right condition and the dive master was great. If i ever go back to Aqaba I'll dive with them again for sure.

    We had a wonderful time diving with Adventure Divers and Ali specifically. Dive center is well located and fully equipped with almost new, good quality suits. Ali chose an excellent dive site for me and even took a camera. I felt safe and comfortable throughout the dive, 100% will return soon. Thank you!

    We rented snorkels and fins for the south beach and stayed after for a shower, good food and watched the sunset from the terrace. A nice place to hang out and food was very good with reasonable price! Mango juice was the best I tried in Jordan.

    This place is very well located 10 km south of Aqaba. It's perfect for discovering the Red Sea and diving. The prices are not high. The staff is very kind and helpful. Thank you very much to all the staff and the managers Saïd for their kindness.

    I totally recommend Aqaba Adventure Divers! The team is very kind🙂 They provide different levels of scuba diving - from beginners to super advanced. The diving instructors are just amazing! Such professionals and super kind from the start until the end of the diving experience. I enjoyed it a lot :) Regarding the hotel, with a clear conscience I can say that they have the best panoramic view in Aqaba, since I have been to other hotels there before. Thank you guys for the warm hospitality <3

    TL;DR: I would stay there again and recommend it. Special thanks to Saeed and chef Ehab. Saeed was always ready to help us with whatever we needed, whenever we needed. Chef Ehab’s food was great, his omelettes, fried eggs, and burgers were very delicious. - Location: 2/5 Distance from closest beach: very close. Distance from Aqaba: around 12km. If you don’t have a car and want to move around, you’ll have to spend some money. - Service: 5/5 Best service you’ll find, they’re all willing to help you with whatever you need, even if you need something from outside the resort. - Food: 4/5 We had beef burgers with fries once for dinner and eggs and omelettes for breakfast, made by chef Ehab. They were delicious. The orange juice was a 5/5 - Parking: There is parking right at the entrance. - Wheelchair accessibility: 5/5 There are ramps everywhere to assist people in wheelchairs. - Wi-Fi and internet: 3/5 The Wi-Fi’s signal is weak in some places, and the signal of my cellular data was also weak. - Pool: 4/5 The pool and its surroundings are nice, the only problem is that it’s cleaned every morning only, so there are a bunch of dead insects by the time it’s evening. - General: 4/5 The rooms have no windows, the AC is a bit old that it doesn’t cool so much, but the plus side is that there is a ceiling fan to aid. We booked 2 rooms and the fridge of one of the rooms was very old and broken.

    I recently went on a diving trip with this center, and for the first time, I felt joy and safety in this manner. The trip was extremely enjoyable, and the team was cooperative. The diving instructor was highly knowledgeable, addressing any fears I had underwater. I truly felt in safe hands with this center. I will definitely repeat the experience with you; you've created an unforgettable journey for me. Thank you so much! 💙

    It was great!!! Our diving instructors, Ali and Nasir are so cool guys. They made an incredible work to relax a group of 8 nouvelle divers with fears. We felt on savings hands every time. Thanks Ali and Nasir to be with us in our first diving experience!!😊😊👏🏻👏🏻 About the hotel, I think the only improvement could be a window which allows having opened air in the bathrooms to let smells go outside and fresh air come inside.

  • 3/5 Elena M. 10 months ago on Google • 27 reviews
    Swimming pool is very nice, location is good, 3 min by car to the beach. Hotel is quiet and has nice terrace to watch the sunset. The biggest issue was a shower in the room - after showering the whole bathroom was completely flooded and water almost didn't go down for two nights that we spent in the hotel. Breakfast was also a bit poor.

    I went only for a scuba diving experience and I did not like it. They could put a bit more attention on the customer and they will give a total different experience.

  • 5/5 Dragana P. 1 year ago on Google
    I had one of the best dives ever with these guys. Everyone were nice, very polite and professional. The pool and lounge were nice specialy for my 5 years old daughter. Food is okay and the prices too. Would come back 😊 I highly recommend diving and staying with these people. Thanks for everything 🐠

    If you're looking for a cheap, nice quality place and delicious food this is your place. The staff is just super kind, specially Said, he spent the dinner with us chatting over. They offer courses to dive and you have all renting material at your disposal.

  • 2/5 Chris P. 2 years ago on Google
    Rooms are simple and there is no room service. Water was not working one entire morning and no staff was present. Breakfast ist simple the same every day, and zero hygienic measures (people touching toast with their hands to check how soft it is, then leaving it for others). Staff is super friendly and helpful (if around).

  • 5/5 Celia 2 years ago on Google
    The best dive that I had so far ! Ali was an amazing instructor and photographer :) I will definitely come back and strongly recommend it.

    Abdallah and Naif were fabulous dive masters. We were beginners and both were patient and helpful. Safety was very important to them. I would definitely recommend . We hopefully will be back. Randi, Frank and Alec

  • 5/5 Lysanne S. 1 year ago on Google
    Awesome diveschool! Very skilled divers, good equipment, clean environment. We did not stay at the resort, but we could use the facilities after the dive which was really pleasant. All in all a very good experience, would definately recommend

  • 5/5 Wessel Z. 1 year ago on Google
    Good place to stay during your holidays in Jordan for diving and snorkeling. Relaxed atmosphere, rooms are spacious and clean, interior is a bit dated, but price-quality is very good. The diving and snorkeling is something I would really recommend here. Good equipment, knowledgeable and friendly instructors and lots of things to see under water.

  • 5/5 Vi Y. 1 year ago on Google
    We booked a diving package and really enjoyed our time there! The rooms offer everything you need, although the fridge is unusable, since it's moldy and smells very badly. The divemasters are amazing, such as the rest of the staff. We enjoyed our dives and would definitely recommend it!

  • 5/5 Tash F. 1 year ago on Google
    We had a great experience at this hotel. Loved the freshly cooked eggs to order for breakfast and the convenience to organize diving with the team on site...our dive master was so sweet offering his jacket between dives to keep guests warm - what a champ!

  • 5/5 Paul W. 1 year ago on Google
    Had a fantastic dive experience here. I hadn't dived in a few years, but Sara was a great instructor and went through everything with me to make sure I was ready. She and the rest of the team were very helpful and I would absolutely go back again.

  • 5/5 Bhakti P. 1 year ago on Google
    We had such a fantastic experience with you earlier today! First time snorkelling was amazing and we felt safe, looked after and every penny was worth it. Highly recommend and 100% fantastic service! Thank you once again!!

  • 2/5 Jenny B. 1 year ago on Google
    This is not a good place for snorkelers. While divers are well equipped and get to test their gear at the pool, snorkelers do not get wet suits and your first check of your masks is in the sea, with no instructions for how to seal or clear them. 3 out of 4 family members had masks that leaked in sea water up to our eyes, my child's flipper kept falling off, and the "guide" did not offer any instruction for how to correct these things. It was the worst snorkeling experience I've had.

  • 5/5 Sonia Fleury M. 1 year ago on Google
    We liked everything about the resort and the dive center. The place was very nice and clean. And the food was delicious. My friend is celiac and they were very helpful. We dived with them and they were very professional. The equipment was in perfect conditions. In sum up, we went to a hotel but we felt like home 🙌 Hope we can come back soon and dive more 🤞🏻

😐 Rooms aren't luxurious but okay, and yes, many people are right about this hotel, it's not perfectly clean. But it's fair for the price with good air conditioning and comfy beds. If you wanna head out to dive or snorkel and have an affordable hotel, this is absolutely okay.
