Here is a review written by one of my recent guests who booked her retreat through BookYogaRetreats.com You will also find it on their website.
"I have just returned from a 5 day yoga and meditation retreat with Susan. The location and weather was absolutely perfect for a yoga and meditation retreat, and Susan really was the perfect host and teacher. I am grateful for her patience and time with me. I spent my Christmas break at the studio with my goal of learning better meditation techniques, as well as improving my simple yoga practices. Susan provided me with all of this, plus more, she definitely exceeded my expectations. Susan spent 1 on 1 time with me correcting and instructing me on yoga postures, correct positioning, and structured some sequences to take home with me. She also taught me some great techniques on enhancing my meditation practice, and provided me with some alternative breathing techniques. On top of this, Susan provided some lovely treatments (facial, massage, art therapy, reiki) to enhance my overall experience. The location is perfect for those who are wanting a more private yoga experience, of spending time between yoga and meditation enjoying the beauty of a quiet beach in the sun, without hectic tourists around. Susan ensured that everything was taken care of and I couldn't have asked for more. I will most definitely return and have already recommended her to my friends. Thank you Susan and I hope to see you again very soon!"
Sharm el Sheikh, Taba Heights and Dahab are all very popular holiday destinations. If you are coming on a holiday to any of these resorts, why not take a little time away and visit us in Nuweiba. We will collect and return you to your hotel by arrangement. You will have a chance to see the wonderful scenery along the route and then experience the peaceful and less touristic area that is Nuweiba.
Our main accommodation is at Sinai Mountain camp and you can choose between a simple beach hut or a twin or double en-suite air-conditioned room with a balcony. This is the accommodation that comes with our packages and is overseen by Susan.
Twin Room with en-suite bathroom, balcony, fridge and air/com
Double En- suite room with air/con, fridge and balcony
Room in the studio building with twin beds and own bathroom may also be available.
You could however choose to be accommodated in nearby beach camps and hotels. Nearby camps include Blue Sky, MacBool at Sultana, Green Beach, Small Duna, Habiba.
Other local larger Nuweiba hotels include The Coral Resort (next to the Port) and Club Nuweiba (near to the town) This is the most upmarket choice. Ciao Hotel and Casa Del Mare are smaller and very close to my studio.
Reservations outside our inclusive packages: Book directly with the hotels but please check with me for my availability.
Yoga in Dahab: You can arrange to come as a group, minimum 8 people and I will teach and hold a retreat at Coral Coast Hotel, Dahab. Dahab is one hour from Sharm and more touristic than Nuweiba. There are lots of shops and restaurants to enjoy in a laid back atmosphere. The beaches are less spectacular than in Nuweiba but the opportunities for diving and snorkeling equal in both places.

Here are more reviews from Retreat Guests in the past years:
“I had an unforgettable time at the yoga retreat in Nuweiba. Susan made the best out of my stay, giving me during nearly two weeks an in-depth introduction to the world of yoga and meditation. Susan found the perfect mix of being demanding and patient at the same time. She took great effort to share her rich treasure trove of experience about yoga and meditation with me, adapting the lessons to my needs. But first of all Susan and her husband Karim were very kind and warm hosts. The village of Nuweiba with its empty beaches (I was there in November) is one of the places were time seems to be standing still, which made it an ideal place to relax and find tranquility.

Mary Orcutt and Rico from California recommend Yoga Studio Nuweiba, Egypt.
We just spent 5 days at the Yoga Studio Nuweiba and it was just wonderful. Susan is an excellent teacher and her studio is lovely. We did asana practice, breath work, and meditation. There are lots of different props that are helpful—some I had never used like weighted bags and ropes. Class sizes are small so that she can give individual adjustments to help get good alignment and a better stretch. You stay in basic rooms next door and the people there are very nice.

"An oasis of tranquility and spirituality"
Iris Ruff from Israel
The residence where the retreat takes place is really amazing, it`s beautifully decorated, has all the facilities you can ask for and the place just breathes serenity. Susan and her husband are wonderful hosts! From the moment I arrived throughout my whole stay they were very hospitable and helping. Susan is really a great and a very experienced teacher, the classes were adjusted to my personal needs, besides she gives a lot of personal care and adjustments. They are building a beautiful meditation room on the roof which makes all just more magical. I would definitely come back! Thank you again for everything:)
Agnes from Paris : un accueil chaleureux, Susan est un professeur expérimenté et attentif. Comme c'est la basse saison j'ai pu bénéficier de cours individuels ou à très petits groupes . j'ai eu des soucis de valise perdue et Susan m'a été d'un grand secours
Esmeralda from the Netherlands 2019 :
Love and professional care, I have been taught a lot. Absolutely priceless and would recommend it to everybody. Thank you Susan for the one on one lessons, the lovely meals and the stay on the beach even well worth it in the quietness of your winter.
Jenny from Sweden 2020 :
Thank you Yoga Studio Nuweiba for a wonderful week! As a beginner I learned a lot and found great inspiration for continuing practice yoga at home. Susan is a truly a great and experienced teacher. The studio itself is very peaceful and calm and the meals served at the house are fantastic.
Lola from Spain and UK - New year’s Eve 2020
I have just returned from Susan’s home in Nuweiba, a 6 days Yoga Retreat and it is
been an unforgettable experience. Beautiful and warm sunny days, we started our
Yoga sessions at 8am every morning, which I loved…full breakfast afterwards and
the beach right there to relax in an incredible paradise atmosphere…days are short
in December and we had a second Yoga session at 4.30pm. Sessions were
sometimes more than 90minutes long, plenty of time to experience so much…and
every session was different! She is a very good and experienced Yoga Teacher. I
especially enjoyed de last one with a very special farewell Susan dedicated to me.
I loved everything in Nuweiba. Susan is a beautiful woman, so polite, discreet,
calm, her voice so relaxing…I was floating every day and it felt so good…She and
her Husband, Karim, cooked beautiful dishes and they look after us all the way and
make sure we are happy and well. Susan is so helpful, I needed to do some filming
in some dessert and mountain locations and she offer herself to accompany me
and do the filming of me while I was performing. Thank you very much for that.
We celebrated New Year’s Eve in their home as well, it was a very happy and funny
evening, with a delicious buffet Susan and Karim prepared for us.
Thank you so much to both of you for the whole experience, I will definitely love to
come back. And to Susan…a very special Lady…Muchas Gracias!!!
Lola
