Rafiki Hostels - Dahab

Very great accommodation, people are so friendly, had alot of fun with the hostel activities and the hostel staff was super, highy recommended for solo travelers and backpackers, Dahab itself is such an amazing chill place with tons of activities

I had an amazing time at Rafiki Hostel! The dorm had everything I needed—clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The atmosphere was relaxed and social, perfect for meeting other travelers. The rooftop was a nice spot to hang out, and the staff were super friendly and helpful. Great location close to the beach and restaurants. Highly recommend!

I originally planned to spend just three days in Dahab, but I ended up staying for two whole weeks—clearly, I never wanted to leave! Escaping the chilly German weather, I was in dire need of some sun and warmth, and Hostel Rafiki delivered beyond my wildest expectations. From the moment I arrived, Dina at reception greeted me with a genuine smile and went out of her way to make my stay comfortable. Gouda and his team are fantastic—they truly made me feel like part of the family. And I can’t forget the wonderful lady who cooked breakfast and dinner; her meals were a highlight of every day. The vibe at Rafiki is infectious. I met so many friendly people and felt like I had found my second home. The only downside was that Ammar, with his overly serious demeanor, sometimes made it a bit hard to express my thoughts freely. It felt like he wasn’t too open to different opinions, which was a bit disappointing. But honestly, that was just a small hiccup in an otherwise incredible experience. If you’re looking for a welcoming and laid-back spot to escape to, this is the place to be. I’ll definitely be coming back for more adventures at Rafiki!

I loved my stay at Rafiki, they have 3 different buildings of the hostel, I stayed in a private room which looks like a part of a bigger apartment. It was clean and stylish. The building also has a cool rooftop with amazing views of the whole city, good for exercise or even work. They serve delicious breakfast everyday and organize social events. It was very easy to meet people and not get bored even though I stayed there 10 days. It is walking distance to everything. Everyone was super nice and I am gonna be back soon. Thank you!

Great vibe, clean rooms. Great place to socialize if you want to. My dorm was in a different building then the common area, therefore it wasn't noisy at all in the night. Breakfast is delicious and made with love. I definitely can recommend the place

I definitely recomend you to stay in rafiki when you go to Dahab, rafiki is one of the best hostels I've ever been, it's clean, excellent atmosphere, good breakfast and good activities, they have dorms and also private rooms. It feels like a family
