Freedom Camp — Attraction in South Sinai

TLDR: vacation was great due to the beach nearby, food quality and prices where horrible. 3 stars (in Sinai standards), would not return.

The good: decent prices per night.

amazing reef for snorkeling (access via rubber platings to prevent damage).

responsive staff.

ac and showers available in accomodations.

good camp for chilling.

The bad: horrible and overpriced food (50 nis for a frozen fish, 35 nis for chicken with rice). Gave 3 of us stomach issues (not our first trip).

The menu is officially priced with Israeli shekel, horrible exchange rate for extra scamming.

no food from the outside, no cooking is allowed (which is extremely bad when coupled with the horrible food and prices).

wifi is available only in the morning and the evening (8-11, 17-22). Unstable during active hours.

no easy sea access (especially for those who like a sandy beach). Access is over a reef and is done over rubber plates to allow easy walking and prevent coral destruction. The path is not easy, Sandals are recommended, not recommended with small children who don't feel comfortable in the sea. however, there easy a nice sandy beach a couple of hundred meters to the north, just ~5 minutes away.

We slept in a room with air conditioning and attached bathroom. Clean by Sinai standards. From time to time there was no water, but after contacting the staff, the problem was solved immediately. The food is fine and there is a large selection to choose from. The staff is what makes the place very special. There is easy access to the water and the diving is very beautiful. Definitely a recommended place to stay...

Spend 3 days there with my wife at the end of October. We stayed in the hatch on the beach. The place is amazing. Of course there are fields of improvement but overall it was a very peaceful and quite place. Biggest impression was the lovely guy at the reception. Always willing to help and make us feel comfortable. Would come back definitely. Ps. just take a snorkelling mask with you. The reef just in front of the...
