Budget

Beer Sweer, an area located just some 15 km south of Taba, on your way to Nuweiba, offers lots of small beach camps. All have a restaurant section, and bamboo straw huts, where the Stars shine though at night. The camps are directly on the beach, with possibility to simply sleep on the beach, beside the sea. Figure on US$20/day including food and drinks.

• Aquarium camp
• Good Life
• Al Tarek
• Diana Beach Camp
• Sabah Camp
• Baraka

Splurge

• Taba Hilton - completely unmissable at 11 storeys height, stands out like a sore thumb from the rest of the Taba landscape. Includes a diving centre. Expect Hilton prices.

It is worth noting however you can stay at the Hilton Taba from £20 GBP a night, £29 GBP including breakfast and dinner. This may still be a little steep for backpackers, but is much cheaper than the prices of a Hilton in Tel Aviv or Eliat. Good for if you are ill and need an en-suite, or just want a night of comfort!!
