We spent a relaxing vacation. Upon check-in we got a room upgrade which was very nice 👌 The location of the hotel is directly facing the sea with a beautiful coral reef, within wadi elgemal national protected area.

Located in the southernmost area of Marsa Alam coastal region at the edge of the Wadi el Jemal preserved area, is well worth the 120 km ride south of the airport. Confortable and quiet with direct access to the beach for swimming and snorkeling. Food and services in line with the resort category. Heated pool. Highly recommended.

“Definitely a place to return!”
Very quiet place, ideal for relaxing. The reef is very pretty with seaweed fields so we were able to meet turtles and even a dugong!! The access to the water is right in front of the beach: this is a great plus for me and not to give for granted In Marsa Alam. They provide for free beach towels and they are very clean and good quality fabric. Diving center nearby is modest but they are willing to help. Food is super good and always fresh, suitable for vegetarians as well. Staff is helpful, super nice and chilled. Taxi booked for pick up didn't show up and they gave us an upgraded room and a discount on the return transfer as to apologise, we really appreciated it. I will definitely come back with my friends.. we loved it!
