Bait Alaqaba Dive Center & Resort

Our stay at the diveresort was good! It was not busy but still possible to do dives from their local divecenter. Diving with Haitham was great! He showed us two cool divesites, a sinked tank and the Cedar Price

بيت العقبة كان حلو كتير! الأشخاص كان لطيفين و عندهم كلب اسمه ليو و هو كان كتير ممتع. سافرت مع حبيبي و نحن رحنا غوص مع هيثم و أحمد و هم عنجد بجننين و ممتازين. حبيبي كان خائفا بس هيثم و أحمد لقد كانوا داعمين جبا. بسبب هم، بدنا نرجع الى بيت العقبة لتدريب الغوص انا متحمسة! Bait Al Aqaba was beautiful and all of the people there were so nice and accommodating. They have. They have a dog named Leo who was so fun to play with. I traveled with my boyfriend and we went scuba diving with Haitham and Ahmed. They were great and extremely supportive. Because of them, we are going to come back and get our diving certificate. I am excited! The area is really nice. It’s a 20 minute or so drive from the city, but it’s very quiet and peaceful. It’s only about a 10 minute walk to the beach from the hotel, and there is snorkeling gear available for rent for the whole day. There aren’t many restaurants in the area but I would recommend going to Alkokh on the beach. They have the best prices (everything else is very expensive) and really nice staff. Overall, this was a great weekend trip!

First let's start with the good: the pool. That's about it. The place was fairly dirty and grimmy. The mattresses were stained, the bottom sheet looked like it had not been washed and there was no top sheet. The toilets smelled really bad and were rather disgusting. The food was overpriced for what you got. We were told we had breakfast and paid for it but in the morning we had to practically bed to get it. I am used to staying at low cost youth hostels but this was bad on another level. We were due to stay 5 nights but left after one. The pictures on their site are misleading. The worst part was the shady manager who cheated us out of money and kept bugging us to pay in cash after telling us we could pay with card. Thankfully we only paid for about 2 of the five nights. When we told them we were leaving they reacted very badly and I felt intimidated. Do not stay here. That is all I can say.

It was clear that we had to do some diving in Aqaba at the end of our trip in Jordan. This diving center is a 5 star PADI center, it has everything you need, if you stay in the same hotel everything is very comfortable, the beds are comfortable, it has a pool to relax and it is very economical, if not you are looking for luxuries and go to dive, this is the best place in Aqaba, and the center has an exceptional guide and instructor who is Haithan, both for people who have never dived and for expert divers, what a crack! He will not hesitate to make your experience a good adventure.

We weren’t sure if diving or not, but we finally decided to do one dive. It was such an amazing experience that we even repeated it twice. We have seen coral reefs, a plane, a tank, and the third time a sunk ship that is the most spectacular thing I have ever seen. I had never dived before and my guide Haitham taught me everything, very easy and pleasant, I could not imagine a better person to teach me diving and the wonders of the red sea. He made it one of the best experiences I’ve ever had, I would definitely recommend everyone to try diving here. Haitham is always positive, makes it very simple for you, the only thing you have to do is to enjoy. The hotel is fine, it has what you need. The personal care here is spectacular, they care that you are comfortable and the truth is that we can not ask for more. 10/10

The dives were a really good experience and it's suitable for all levels. I had only dived once before a couples years ago. However, our dive instructor Haitham really made me feel at ease. I really enjoyed the dives, the sea is beautiful here! My boyfriend is a certificied diver and he did two dives with Haitham. Both very diverse and wonderfull. Haitham knows the best spots around the reef and the Ceder Pride Wreck. He even brought his camera and made some great pictures! Furthermore, the entire crew is friendly and really helpful.

Very good service, they are certified and professional. We going from the hotel in the beach and we make a test (practice ) and after that we going diving. Friendly staff and correct. They makes free photos in diving. (In the preis).

Although is quite far from the city, in another word very relaxing place to rest apart from busy lifestyle. Also I joined the provided diving class, the boss himself and coaches are friendly and nice. This place is safe with cctv, nice and efficient stuffs although English communication is not 100% smooth, but they will always ready to help.

We had our first dive ever with Haitham. He guided and helpt us like a real pro. We went to the coral reef, witch was magical! Best first dive experience you could wish for! After the dive we had some thee together. Ik would recommend to go there 👌🐠🪸
