Rayhana Guest House

“Ibrahim is very friendly and helpful. Good atmosphere.”

“Rooms were big and comfortable in everyway. We asked for local breakfast and it was no problem for them to change from the normal bread and jams. Marsa Alam is very strange in its set-up, you have the waterfront (forget lively boardwalks or beachside entertainment areas) then a strip of desert and unfinished resort building projects. Then the road that this and a few other hotels are on, then a large strip of desert littered with more unfinished resorts and finally the town. Rihana guest house is a fair walk from the town centre, but would definitely not have wanted to stay anywhere else. Great place.”

“Ibrahim was a great host, and helped with any questions we had about Marsa Alam and any activities we wanted to do. The outdoor area in the front of the hostel was great also, such a nice area to relax and chill out after a day diving.”

“My stay by Ibrahim was really good. The host was really fine. He arranged everything for me. For example my dives on elphinstone. Every thing went on an easy way. The house is super confortable. The view great ”

“The room was big and clean and the mosquito net was welcome, because there is a lot of mosquitoes at night (bring repellent!). The use of the refrigerator in the kitchen was nice to keep the water cold. You can even get cooked meals delivered to the guesthouse. There is a menu available for the guests. The breakfast is a typical Egyptian breakfast of warm bread, yogurt, a hard boiled egg, jam, butter and honey. Simple but filling. But it was really the owner, Ibrahim, that made my stay special. He’s very nice, super funny and is always telling you interesting stories or fun facts about all and nothing. All my love to the cats Ibrahim!”
