Excellent hotel

The location is in the middle of nowhere – perfect for a relaxing getaway. The resort itself is spread over a large area, so you never feel crowded or disturbed by noise. The rooms are excellent, spacious, and clean. We stayed in Building B, room 306, which had everything we needed, including a beautiful view of the beach. The restaurant is, without a doubt, one of the best we have ever visited. All the meals we had—more than 30 in total—were delicious and prepared with fresh ingredients. There was no repetition of food; for most of our 10-day stay, we enjoyed completely different meals every day. The head chef, Mohamed, is doing an incredible job. The entire staff is well-trained and performs at a very high level. The beach is beautiful, spacious, and there are always enough sunbeds for all guests. The pools are large and also well-equipped with sunbeds and umbrellas. Overall, what was planned as a five-day stay unexpectedly turned into ten, as we extended our visit by another five days. All praise for this hotel and its staff.

Good value for money for a diving holiday

The resort is clean and full of flowers and trees. The staff in the kitchen is helpful and preparing good food. Value for money is also a great thing and divingcenter is at the resort. There is a safe in the room and easy to use. You can use beach towels and get clean ones daily. The beach is shallow and the house reef is beautiful.

Best price Quality in Marsa Alam

My reviews are based on price vs services. Simply delightful as nice facilities, we were offered an upgrade with a lovely beach view as room service came daily and always bottled water available in the room. The buffet is very good only minus is breakfast being a little repetitive but both lunch and dinner always had different things every day. Something no one explains is that there's the drinks that are included in the all inclusive that includes some of the most common cocktails but there's also premium ones that have a cost, not a lot but if you want something branded or premium there's an extra for that. The beach is the Star of the resort we'll kept only a little coral and rocks, in general I don't think you need water shoes but if you like to explore yeah use them. Night activities are good and the animation team tries their best, fire show I recomend. For the price we payed for a week it's one bang for the buck for sure.

Amazing coral reef

I thought our stay was exceptional. The majority of the staff were absolutely amazing, including Mohamed Ali at the restaurant who took our drink orders and brought them to us quickly. He also helped us with finding somewhere to sit every day. The bartenders at the reception bar and pool bar were very good, making good cocktails. Pool bar especially, you should definitely try the special. The coral reef is completely out of this world. We swam with a 1.5m diameter turtle twice at the reef. We also swam with a pod of dolphins twice. There are many other fish types at the reef too and it is not crowded by people. The reef is very colourful and better than anything I have ever seen in Egypt or abroad. The food was exceptional, especially the barbeque area. The beach lifeguard was very good constantly watching the sea to identify wildlife such as dolphins and to make sure tourists are swimming safely. Hotel shampoo, conditioner and body lotion was very good and worked well. The spa is pretty cheap and very good for massages, it charges 120 dollars for 3 massages and a hammam. Some very good shops selling sun cream and souvenirs. The one outside run by idris sells very nice handmade goods.

The hotel was very accommodating to our needs. I requested a room change due to a smaller balcony, and they kindly agreed to switch us for the rest of our stay. The main restaurant is excellent, offering a wide variety of both local and Western dishes. I highly recommend trying the oriental restaurant one evening—it was absolutely delicious. We had a fantastic time with the animation team, spending hours playing beach volleyball. Special shoutout to Hamza!

Exceptional food in a beautiful resort

This large resort is 30 minutes from Marsa Alam airport. It served the best food I’ve ever had in Egypt during many years of travel there. One evening there was a superb filet mignon. The restaurant service team is really attentive and polite. The gardens are also really beautiful and continuously tended to. The resort has four pools, one is a quiet adult-only pool and another is heated which was nice now in the colder off season. The resort is not sheltered by wind as much, so very windy conditions result in a red flag requiring guests to stay inside the reef which still lets you swim in the ocean in the shallow. There was some animation by the pool and beach area, however finishing at a 11pmish at the latest.

A value property with the food being the highlight of your stay

The main thing I liked about the hotel was the 3 meals where the variety was amazing the quality pretty good and the service staff were always friendly and smiling and the hotel manager was always there to keep and eye on things. The pools were great and so was the beach and pier. Our waiter Abdelfattah was really nice and kept our same table every day, also offered puzzles for us to solve after we ate.
