The owner is a scammer, don’t trust him on any point.

We recently spent 5 nights at the Southern Star Club as a family of 4 (children aged 10 and 13). The large, air-conditioned room was simple but clean with small, modern kitchen and bathroom facilities. There are two pools, one for dive training which is 5m deep and another, smaller one for less confident swimmers. The host, Amer was super friendly and helpful. While most people involved in the tourist industry in Jordan see you as a walking ATM, Amer was the opposite, offering good advice for inexpensive restaurant options in downtown Aqaba and negotiating a better deal for a snorkelling trip on a boat on our behalf. We'd brought our own dive masks but Amer is a dive instructor with hire kit available and he took our eldest son for a try-dive for a reasonable fee. Amer also arranged a fantastic location for us in Wadi Rum, Salma Camp - I'll write a separate review for that. The location is not far from the beach but the return is all uphill and in the intense heat of Aqaba, and especially with children I wouldn't recommend walking. We had a hire car and drove to different public beaches for snorkelling trips from the shore, all only a 5-10 minute drive away. I'd definitely recommend this location and especially Amer for his friendly hospitality.

Terrible experience that I wouldn't recommend even to my worst enemy. At 1.36pm we park in this semi-desolate place, look for the reception (spoiler: it doesn't exist!) and a lady tells us that it is not the check-in time (2.00pm). At 2.30pm we return after having lunch and the lady changes her speech by saying: "YOUR ROOM IS HERE" (rather questionable check in formula) Dirty room, decadent bathroom, dust everywhere. The swimming pool outside looks like a pond, the owners ARROGANT and INCOMPETENT (can a hotel owner talk to you without a shirt as if he were at home?) Don't make our mistake and change your ways

The owner Amer and his wife Lylia are a bunch of crooks. They sell diving courses and promise registration and delivery of an Open Water Padi diploma. After paying and practicing, they do not send the dearly paid certificate. This is organized fraud. You can find all the detailed negative reviews on TripAdvisor, Airbnb, Google Maps. Flee this crooked hotel, report them to the Jordanian tourist police. A shame for this honest and welcoming country.

ABSOLUTE SCAM - DIVE SCAM. Normal rooms although the refrigerator did not work. The owner, Amer, is a real con man. He convinced us to make a diving investment, finally he convinced us again to make one more paying a lot and thus he registered us in the PADI course and we could validate the investments for the future. Nothing could be further from the truth, after 4 months he still has not sent us any information and refuses to process anything with PADI, denying everything he said. DO NOT GO, SCAM.

The owner, Amer, is a crook. He lies with the skills of a diving instructor using false papers and certificates and promises project lessons that will lead to a certificate: the PADI. However, despite the price paid, we never received the said certificate. A real shame that people like that can carry out such a scam.

Worst experience in a hotel. A very dirty swimming pool and much too deep, 5 meters, making it impossible for children to have fun there with peace of mind. No air conditioning in the room in the middle of August, it’s unbearable. The worst was the owner who pushed for consolation to go diving. There are plenty of hotels in the same street that are much nicer

A Nameless Scam, if not a repeated lie, A rather nice arrival at first sight, before a series of disappointments and lies. An impressive swimming pool 5 m deep, but half filled, and very dirty, obviously it should have been filled in a few hours but after 4 days no change in level briefly, first disappointment Second and most important is with the owner, a smooth talker who knows what he is doing Diving instructor he offers us to do dives to pass a PADI level, with funding of course, things that we accept with time but we did to him trust. We are 2 diving, one for a scuba diving, and an open water, After having settled it, the one tells us that it will take 90 days to receive an email via PADI, It was June 1, 2022, today the August 14 still nothing, despite multiple reminders to the owner named Amer, After making a complaint to PADI, we were told that nothing had been done to have our level with their service, ATTENTION, fraudulent practice that we consider unacceptable. We have currently initiated an appeal to denounce the dubious and dishonest practices that he may carry out within his hotel. Really very disappointed to end our stay in Jordan.

Very bad experience with the owner of this establishment and big disappointment in this hotel which closed the end of our magnificent trip to Jordan. First disappointment upon arrival The swimming pool is half full and very dirty, a little disappointing when it's 40 degrees, they tell us that they fill it and clean it but after 3 days it was always at the same level and always just as dirty, we spent our entire day at the Darna village beach hotel as a result. We had planned to go diving, very well the hotel has a so-called diving club (always with the same owner who is also the diving instructor) with a lot of insistence (which should have tipped us off). ear because obviously it costs more than a simple dive) he offers us to pass the open water padi level, we accept and we pay for that. We had to do the practice with him and the theory on our side on the internet to validate this level and receive the card. Except that we were never registered with padi we even did fewer Dives than what was planned to pass these levels. A well-established scam while playing it nice and friendly. I see in the reviews that we obviously weren't the only ones. To avoid any bad experience I do not recommend at all this sad establishment Aqaba is full of much nicer hotels.
