Latest Taba hotel reviews
Pro
Great sunshine all year round,great base to explore other surrounding countries.
Con
Isolated area, not much nightlife besides hotel entertainment.
In a nutshell
Taba is a cheaper Eilat with less tourist infrastructure.
Viist St Catherine's Monastery
Stazza Says: It is a wonder to see that this monastery was built in the middle of nowhere.The church is a typical Orthodox church, so similar to the ones I have seen in Romania & Russia. Do take advantage to go and visit the Icon Museum, the icons are fantastic, some have preserved their...
Diving in Taba with Werner Lau
rickyranger Says:
shizzler Says: Go snorkelling or diving. The red sea is the most beautiful place in the world. Although the seas of the Caribbean will always appeal, and the likes of the Maldives or Great barrier reef in Australia. In Egypt you will dive into the clearest and warmest sea in the world,...
Custodyspice Says: Snorkelling and scuba diving can be done in Taba at Waterworld, which is next to the port. A free shuttle bus runs between the hotels and the Waterworld complex. Also does waterskiing, paragliding etc.We booked a Red Sea day cruise which stopped off Heron Island and we...

Chez Pascal.: Romantic evening meals, with great steaks.
shizzler Says: The Chez pascal is a romantic, peacefull restaurant with a touch of class. I dined there once during our stay and wish i'd dined there again as the service was 1st class and the food cooked to perfection with great presentation to make it a really romantic evening. The...
Castle Zaman: Comme à la maison !
MarieGirod Says: Le concept proposé par Castle Zaman est celui de "Slow Food". Il s'agit de commander plusieurs heures à l'avance (par téléphone ou sur place, et flâner au bord de la piscine ou au bar en attendant)son dîner, car le cuisinier préparera tout lui-même de A à Z, tous les...
Cocktail bar.: Relaxed nights, in the 30 degree plus heat
shizzler Says: The bars around the hotel are great. In the evenings the hotel does have outdoor discos and entertainment but the best thing is to sit, relax, chat to your friends that you're guaranteed to make and enjoy the beer, cocktails and drink the night away. With a choice from about...
kid-keith Says: In Taba and Taba Heights the nightlife is not really there, some shows with bellydancers are put on but all the hotel`s in this area are lacking anysort of night time excitment although you can have a good laugh with the bar staff. Casual.
flashpacker07 Says: The East Delta company runs buses from Taba city (there is a stop in Taba Heights as well right outside the resorts) to Cairo. June 2010 we paid 70 egyptian pounds for a 1 way from Cairo (Turgaman station) to Taba heights. The bus is uncomfortable and the airconn was...
NYC2TLV Says: At the border crossing between Egypt and Israel, there is a large group of taxis waiting for travelers. Generally these cars are of low quality and the drivers are very dangerous, but during the night, they know the roads the best of anyone. If you must take a taxi, I...
OrangeFish Says: I'm guessing there is probably at least one gift shop in each of the hotels in Taba Heights, each with the same 'above-average' prices. Even with the high prices I did end up buying a few bits 'n bats, like a snorkel, but a cost of £35 it's worth bringing your own. Above...
NYC2TLV Says: During the month of Ramadan please act in a proper and respectful behavior. These are things that are best not to do in public:1. Eat, drink, or smoke during the day.2. Drink Alcohol.3. Play loud music.
NYC2TLV Says: The Egyptian authorities strictly enforce Egyptian law. Please regard, among other things, the following subjects:1. Counterfeit money2. Drugs/narcotics - even in the smallest quantity.3. Any weapon and/or ammunition.4. Pornographic materials are forbidden in Egypt.5. It is...
NYC2TLV Says: When traveling in the Sinai region it is best to stay on guard. Automobile drivers at night do not drive with their lights on and only flash other drivers when a car is approaching. Also, one must look at not to be in crowded areas and avoid any places that do not look...
kid-keith Says: Make sure when visting any tourist part`s of Egypt that you take some US$1 bills for tipping as the Egyptian`s expect a tip for everything, and by taking these you will always have the right amount to tip them with, if not you could end giving more to them than you want.
OrangeFish Says: If you want to see some of the beautiful fish in the Red Sea, I suggest you bring a snorkel with you or you could just purchase one from the gift shop, at a cost of around £35.
OrangeFish Says: Scuba Diving is available in Taba Heights Resort, but I personally never tried it. At £100 for just 30 minutes, it didn't seem quite worth it.Though while I was checking out the advertised scuba diving I noticed the noisy Russians quite calmly floating in the sea just off...
The beautiful clear blue sea and fish life.
pearsedoran Says: A must see is the small Island called The Crusaders Castle also called The Salah al - din Castle and Pharoah's Island ,so don't be looking for 3 Islands they are all the one. The time i spent in the sea and the wonderful Sunrise from over the Saudi mountians and of course...
kid-keith Says: Taba is great it`s only a holiday tourist destination but from the beach you can look over to Isreal,Jordan and Saudi Arabia which is truly magical, also if you take advantage of the water sports centre there you can go para-sailing and look down on 4 different countries.

When Eilat becomes full, I like to head to Taba. Much more secluded, excellent beaches and generally a cheap place to vacation.

Taba is popular with both Europeans and Israelis - 4/5 star hotels at affordable prices, great beaches, and for Israelis - close to the border. A Taba 5-star hotel, however, is a bit different to one...
