I have nt seen inside this hotel but have driven past it oodles of times.

My only comments would be that there is construction going on at the moment, ( an extension in progress ) and the beach is a bit far - other side of road and a few hundreds along.

If you stay all your time in the Taba - Nuweiba - Dahab - St Catherine - Sharm area you do not need a visa. I repeat YOU DO NOT NEED A VISA. So don't let anyone at the airport tell you otherwise.

It s true... the Seastar is in the middle of nowhere. But then so is Taba Heights, and to a certain point Taba itself. Nuweiba has more to offer with a choice of hotels, camps, restaurants, better beaches and is very central for all the excursions.

But then am I a little biased ?

Whats the SeaStar like these days.

Thinking of a quick cheap holiday, do a bit of diving.

Friends of mine went there AI in Feb - loved it. Spent all their time by the pool or on the beach. Nothing much to do - but good food, clean rooms etc etc.
