We had a wonderful vacation at Viva Camp. We stayed with our two little ones and had such a great time. The beach is beautiful, with a sandy entrance, and at low tide the shallow water turns into little pools that are perfect for children to swim and play in. The food is delicious and excellent, the reef is beautiful, the rooms are great, and most importantly — the hosts and staff are truly wonderful people. Thank you so much 🙏🏻🌷

A small and charming place, family atmosphere, quiet and peaceful. Really great food! And always want to learn and improve. Disadvantage: no hot water and everything else is stunning and welcoming

We are a fmily of 4, parents (mid 30's) baby (1 yo) and grandma (68). We've visited sinai dozens of times in the past 20 years. Found this place by accident without any recommandation, only looking at comments online and photos. A small camp, very clean, beautiful reef, kids friendly, good food but the more important is the team. Hissu and Bez are running this place with their lovely team keeping the standart high, while dooing it all with a smile, with many shaded spots to chill, with a lovely open bedouin dining area and great playlists (not too loud). Those guys love theier work, and its felt in the experience. Prices are descent regarding the services What differs for me Viva la vida camp is the honest and friendly vibe with the team. I will definitly come back here, and i will definetly reccomand my friends to come here. Thanks a lot the team we enjoyed it till the last moment! And i would recommand to talk directly with them throu whatsapp for any reservations or requests they are super helpful!

Dear friends, I wholeheartedly recommend Viva La Vida Beach Camp! What a choice! ❤️ A small, new and quiet camp, with super quality cabins and lovely rooms. Really really delicious food, fresh and clean at the highest level. Amazing reef, preserved and colorful, turtles and manta rays almost every snorkel. 🐢🌅 And most importantly, the staff is simply perfect. Amazing people. Hiso, Bez, Disha, Hassan. We really felt at home. We were there for 10 days, and of course we also took a beautiful sunset hike in the mountains, and drove through them for a day in Abu Golum. I will go back there. If you are looking for peace, tranquility and an exciting reef, this is the place for you. 🌞

It was such an honor having the opportunity to spend my time in Sinai in Viva La Vida. The staff were so kind and loving to us, the facilities were convenient and the food was incredible. The camp like a home. Highly recommend to stay in that camp. Will definitely come back again.❤️

Great hospitality and delicious food at a fair price, Iso the owner is a really lovely guy. We also took a sunset trip to the mountains and Ras Abu Glum with a team from the camp and it was great. Strong air conditioners in the rooms, large and clean room. The only downside is that there is no convenient entrance to the beach for swimming, the water is shallow at the entrance to the beach and deep only further away. A beach with deep water at the entrance to the water is only in more distant areas like Ras El Shattan so compared to the beach area in the camp it is really good. There is a large and rich reef right in front of the camp. Bring water shoes!! There are rocks at the entrance to the beach as mentioned. Recommend

It was perfect! Quiet and clean and delicious and very, very pleasant! And the owners are attentive and really charming. I can't wait to go back. (I also left a piece of art called "Song on the Wall." I hope you enjoy it).
