We stayed here for 2 nights as part of an Intrepid tour. This place was my favourite accommodation on our tour. It's quiet, secluded, clean and a great break away. The beach huts are very basic palm leave/thatched huts on a concrete slab with mattress on the floor and mosquito nets. Fantastic relaxing in the shade on the hammock about... More

This place is simply magic. It's a pristine stretch of beach that feels isolated and quiet. Rooms are thatch huts on a concrete slab but they are kept meticulously clean. There's carpets and rugs down on the slap and a mattress with clean linens and mosquito nets. There's a porch area out the front of the room with hands-down the... More

Third visit and this lovely spot continues to impress. After a few (terrific) days in Cairo, moved to Sawacamp for 6 nights. Perfect as always. The beach is kept pristine, food wonderful, basic although large huts ideal. The mosquito nets are good (no holes) and the toilets/showers kept scrupulously clean. Salama, relaxed as always, nevertheless ensures that high professional standards... More

What an amazing place...truly a vacation spot. The hospitality was great, food amazing, and the idea of camping/sleeping on the beach can actually happen here! Our host was awesome too and he helped us with transportation to and from the camp, as well as transportation to Mt. Sinai for a midnight hike! Make this a destination, you will not regret... More

Stayed here for two nights as part of a tour. It was a welcome reprieve from the nightmare that is the ferry crossing from Jordan to Nuweiba. The huts are basic but fab, with the most comfortable hammock outside each hut - trust me once you get in you won't want to leave. The food is excellent - I can... More

Didn't shower so can't rate that, toilets were clean though, the bed was comfy and a safe place from mozzie a... More

Absolutely perfect in every way. Beautiful setting on the best sandiest beach I,ve encountered on 23 countries. Accommodation very comfortable and all amenities spotlessly clean. Every meal was consistently excellent and the service by all the staff impeccable. Excellent value for money, Salama is most helpful in every way. It is easy to see why this camp is still operating... More
