RED C VILLAS
Red C is your home in Dahab. We offer self-catering holiday accommodation with kitchenettes in the studios and fully equipped kitchens in our apartments and villas.
Rather than a hotel, see Red C as ‘Air BnB plus.’ We offer you a home in the Sinai with a shared pool at an affordable price. We hope you will agree that Red C is a cut above the majority of options available in Dahab.
Because we believe you will love the hustle and bustle of Masbat Bay with its many international restaurant options and Assalah Square with its shops and local street food, there is NO restaurant on site.
Though we don’t provide a daily cleaning service, we aim to ensure your accommodation is clean and equipped for your stay.
THE RED C EXPERIENCE
We are your local guides with the inside track to the real Sinai.
Though we don’t operate a 24-hour reception, we love sharing our knowledge of Dahab and the surrounding area. Whether you need advice on getting here, tips on planning a trip to the desert, or just want to know the best place to buy groceries – all you have to do is ask.
Check out our favourite places, send us a WhatsApp, or make an appointment to meet one of the team.
If you have any questions - benefit from our local knowledge.

THE PEOPLE BEHIND IT
We love Dahab and know you will too.
RED C VILLAS is owned and run by Stephen Hanson & Dom Gibbings.
Rio keeps the place looking shipshape and the gardens lush.
STEPHEN
Stephen is from Nottingham and in previous lives has been a chartered surveyor and ran his own painting and decorating business.
During his time in the Sinai, he has been involved with a number of property projects – he says he enjoys the challenge of working here!
Stephen ensures the pool and villas are maintained to high standards. He lives nearby and is on hand to offer advice.
DOM
Dom, a barrister from London, started living in Dahab in 2003 after falling in love with the town while visiting a friend. He promised himself one year off working in London to be a dive professional and never left.
Dom is a PADI Course Director who trains new dive instructors at H2O Divers Dahab, our partner dive centre. He lives nearby with his wife, Maggie, who is the bookings manager for Red C. Give him a call if you’d like to organise any of the fantastic activities Dahab has to offer.
RIO
Rio comes from Upper Egypt. He looks after the gardens and generally keeps Red C looking great. He is often on hand to greet guests upon arrival and is on-site most days for your general immediate needs. He speaks a fair amount of English and is sometimes free to pop into Assalah for basic provisions. He lives nearby with his wife and four children.
Best Holidays in Dahab Amazing oasis. Beautiful quiet and super clean. I felt really safe. Steve and Rio are lovely caring people. If you need anything Steve is always there.
A place where you forget all the sorrows. The pool with its colours is wonderful and make you feeling that it was made for you only. The trees around make you think that you are in paradise. The design of the apartment is awesome. You understand that it was created by people who put all their heart in it. Once you have been here you never want to leave. The bathrooms were made by natural stones so beautiful combined with modern style.
I have been to so many places and usually I find something to complain about. But the Red C Villas are perfect. I love that place so much that I can’t wait to come back. Thank you Steve and Rio: you made my holidays.
