A great Hotel with private beach.We did not spend much time around the pool like most people we were on beach most days. The beach is is situated on a cove suitable for most water sport and ideal for promenading.
We stayed on a half board basis,The food was well cooked and there was a good selection. The restaurant staff were all friendly and always greeted you with a smile.
The rooms are a little dated but are comfortable and were cleaned everyday.Our room boasted a sea view, fantastic!
The hotel is close to Dahab centre which is only a short taxi ride away, a quite town where you can enjoy a drink and shisha on the water front.
We stayed at the hotel with friends, and when Mr Rahima heard we wanted to visit Mount Sinai he informed us that this was one of his favourite places to visit and insisted to be our guide for the day. We had all had a great time !
I will certainly return to the panda resort, it was just a little bit of paradise, we had a fantastic holiday. Our thanks to the management and staff.

This was my second visit to Panda Resort and it won't be my last. The hotel is arranged over two floors, facing the garden/pool area and all have either a terrace or balcony.
The rooms are spacious with plenty of wardrobe space and were cleaned every day with some inventive towel art being left on the bed!
The restaurant served a variety of food for both breakfast and dinner, all was well cooked and very tasty. For lunch there is a beach bar with a good selection of snacks, including sandwiches, pizzas and the milkshakes are fantastic.
The pool and beach areas are well kept, beach towels are provided with plenty of sun beds and shade available should you require it. The beach itself is lovely and sandy, set in a gently curving bay with plenty of watersports should you wish to try your hand.
A local taxi to the centre of Dahab is about LE10 to 15, Dahab itself is more laid back than Sharm, with a good choice of bars and restaurants.
All the staff at the hotel were very friendly and nothing was too much trouble, Mr Rahima even advised us on our trip to Mount Sinai, since it is his favourite tour he insisted on coming too and therefore accompanied us on our climb!
If you want a hotel and destination that just allows you to completely relax then look no further than Panda.
Thanks for a wonderful stay x

I stayed in this hotel last October with my friends. I did my reservation through booking.com which is usually what I do. However, when we arrived at the hotel they requested to pay for our stay in advance claiming that it is a policy related to booking reservations. Paying for your stay with Credit Card is not an option!!! Staff is not friendly and not professional at all. Rooms are fairly clean but no soap or shampoo in the bathroom. A/C is very noisy and leaks water on floor. TV is very old and does not have many channels. Pool is very dirty and smells bad. Breakfast is not bad but limited varieties and quantities. Only one other restaurant on the beach which does not look clean and always playing local music very loudly.

Room tip: The hotel only have 8 rooms with sea view. All other rooms either have pool view or garden view.

ANOTHER LIAR

Dear Guest

thanks a lot for taking few minutes of your precious time to write a review on my hotel, unfortunately you didn't tell the truth; you did your booking through booking.com and you knew in advance the rates of my hotel, all the guests usually pay upon check in but you kept delaying it and when we finally requested the payment, you asked for a DISCOUNT although you had previously agreed the rates at the time of booking.
In my hotel PANDA RESORT we clean the rooms daily and change towels & sheets daily, so not in a million years did any of my staff tell you ( it's a three star what do you expect ) plus we always keep five rooms free incase of emergency to move any guest who has a problem with their room.
Moreover you even tried to fool Ashraf the owner of the excursion office when you rented his car and tried not to pay him.
In conclusion I can only assume that you are a trouble maker and a dishonest person, and based on this I would never have you in my hotel again not even for a 1000 $ per night! so shame on you for writing these lies about my hotel & my staff.

Every thing in this hotel was extremely bad except the view, my room was unclean, the blackout was extremely dirty and when i asked the house keeping to clean or change the room they told me that it's not an option and it's a 3 stars hotel what are you talking about !!!! The staff were really weird and with no uniform, the breakfast was the same every day with very limited varieties and non refillable !! I have a lot to say but i think you can expect the rest :)

1st time @ Dahab was really exciting, this hotel has an excellent "Quality Price" if you are seeking relaxation away from crowd, the staff there is super friendly and polite.
Windsurfing, Kite-surfing, glass boat trips and more activities are available on site with good prices(windsurfing costs 15$ an hour which is fantastic).
despite not having a lot of choices, but the food's quality was fine.
This hotel is highly recommended for families or if you are coming solo and seeking for some quality relaxing time and mind peace.
This was my 1st time at Dahab, and won't be my last one to Panda Resort!
