Roots Red Sea Reviews

Description

The resort is inspired by the desert and surrounded by magnificent colourful mountains on one side and unspoilt Red Sea beaches on the other, making it a wonderfully relaxing destination.

Roots Red Sea is a small friendly resort aimed at divers, snorkelers and those who want a quiet, peaceful, relaxed atmosphere but with the convenience of having the small traditional town of El Quseir on its doorstep. The tag 'camp' should not be taken too literally, it relates more to the location than the outstanding accommodations with modern facilities normally associated with 4 star hotels.

Roots Red Sea is managed by British owned and run Pharaoh Dive Club who have an unsurpassed reputation for friendly helpful staff delivering great personal service. Owners Steve and Clare have vast experience of the Red Sea having been working the area for over 20 years. Their simple mantra is to deliver the holiday the guest wants and treat everyone the way they would liked to be treated themselves, its is certainly a winning formula. There is a distinct no problem attitude and nothing is too much trouble for the team.

El Quseir has been past by time and development, it is a truly authentic Egyptian experience with a rich and colorful community, not a tourist hot spot by any means but an absolute gem for the travellers looking for the Egypt before the tourism boom.

El Quseir is an ancient port and has witnessed many winds of change ranging back to Queen Hatchesputs Army to the Sultans pilgrims bound for Mecca, from the Roman Centurions through to the Renaissance Arab Trade. This famous port has been a crucial settlement in Egyptian history which is documented back to 2300BC.
