Hotéis em Marsa Alam

Prós: Very comfortable, calm and great service.

Prós: I liked: Majority of staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast buffet had good variety, though it could be better, taste wise. Pool area is beautiful, though no snacks are served there like other resorts. Excellent female Thai masseuse at the spa. Ask for Tommy!

Contras: I didn't like: I booked a sea view room, and I got a garden view room with probably 2% of sea view between the palm trees! (See the photo from my room's balcony and you'll know what I mean). Some restaurants and room service staff had no idea what is in the menu and what even the items name mean! Management should do better in training staff to the standards of a 5 star resort. Some shops sell 1 year expired products, and management obviously does not even inspect what those shops are selling to guests. Beach is not pleasant, like that of Sharm el Sheikh, but that is just the geographic location of the resort.

Prós: Extremely well designed property with excellent landscaping and tasteful environment. No Kids allowed, ideal for those that want to relax. Excellent opportunity to snorkel the surrounding reefs as well as a dive shop within walking distance. Lots of daily activities for those needing to stretch their legs. Beach is mostly hard packed sand. Water temperature was very pleasant at about 85 degrees. Both pools were kept cooler for a refreshing dip. Swim up bar to make new friends. Food quality in the various on site restaurants was excellent as well as the service level. I also liked the free internet service to stay in touch with home.

Contras: My room telephone came with noise and could not be corrected. Apart from that there is nothing much not to like.

Prós: Everything was marvelous including the site the services and every thing

Contras: I did not expect it to be that excellent. The staff are marvelous. They treat us and every body with enthuthiasm and happiness. Really it is unbelievable experience also they offer help without looking at the money. As a summary it was the best.

Contras: We couldn't book all inclusive via booking.com, so we payed twice as much as the other all inclusive guests (who booked via travel agency) and still had to pay for everything! Food and staff not great.

Prós: Very decent. Especially when compared to other hotels in Egypt on the Red Sea. Especially the ones that work on the all inclusive basis. Normally I hate all inclusive as a concept, but this one was more than tolerable. Great service, nicest and helpful personnel, good food, cosy beach, very quiet. The guests are mostly seniors form Germany, so if you want action, this wouldn’t be the right hotel to choose. If, however, you want a relaxed time in a beautiful place with more or less respectable crowd, Steigenberger Coraya Beach is definitely a place to go. Coral reefs are amazing. You don’t even need to leave the hotel for more or less decent snorkeling. My favorite parts of the trip: a remote and empty beach facing the open sea (as compared to the main one surrounding the bay), cosy romantic evenings in the open air bar and absolutely perfect weather in mid-October.

Contras: Very few imported wines on the menu at insane cost. But it’s generally like that overall in Egypt. Not a drinking nation

Prós: The staff are so friendly, smiling all the time and eager to help.

Contras: The facilities are a bit small for the number of guests.It can get a bit crowded.

Prós: The staff are really friendly. The animation team is really good at getting people to join their activities.

Contras: Wi-fi is not always available from the rooms. This is not a complaint, it's probably better to not offer wi-fi in the rooms to make sure customers end up actually leaving their rooms. In the public areas (lobby and pool areas), the wi-fi worked pretty well.

Prós: The spacious groomed grounds were great and uncrowded to walk and explore. The snorkeling was spectacular with the clear, uncrowded areas on the clear, coral and fish filled Red Sea. The beach lounging area was good, although crowded. It was nice to not be surrounded by other resorts so you could walk to other bays and secluded areas to snorkel or dive.

Contras: The resort needed a little upkeep and maintenance. It's easy to see the luxury that it once was. The food was also not wonderful but too much like a regular buffet restaurant. The WIFI was lacking, and only in the public areas.

Prós: Location and the pool

Contras: Food

Prós: the pool .

Contras: Food.

Prós: The staff was super kind and helpful. The reef was amazing Great location for snorkeling

Contras: The food did not meet our expectation. The buffet was poor and all-inclusive drinks were bad.

Prós: The staff is beyond amazing, the facilities and beach are superb.

Contras: The buffet wasn’t so good, and if snacks like pizza and burger are on the beach it would be perfect

Prós: Perfect room except that there is NO WIFI in the room only in the lobby. The bars and restaurants are very crowdy with a lot of guests loudly shouting. Only restaurant chez Pascal was quiet and good cuisine.

Contras: Too crowdy. Loud guests. Most restaurants regular level of food. Only Chez Pascal outstanding.

Prós: It was a great experience, lovely weather, beautiful landscape. Excellent service.. the food was good.. thanks for all team in reception and restaurant.

Prós: Reception manager Mr.Mosab was very professional, helpful and welcoming. The food at the restaurant is of good quality.

Prós: Very good location, nice scenery.

Contras: The alcohol served at the bars, are horrible. Beer is good, but is not kept cold.

Prós: Stuff is amazing

Contras: Bed sheets need to be more clean it always has cigarette smell

Prós: Perfect place for snorkeling directly from the beach or from the pontoon. Beautiful garden with a lot of trees and flowers. For sure I'll come back again.

Contras: Nothing...

Prós: Check in, Sea life, beach, clean room, thursday night show was great

Contras: Food was very well cocked and served but using cheap materials . There were problems in the room like a.c., bad smell , safe battery low and all were quickly solved but why do I have to face problems. Soft drinks were bad .

Prós: Location, nature, stuff are friendly and helpful especially reception and restaurant stuff and bar men

Contras: Aqua so bad quality, no lifeguard, animation not so good, my sight glass lost on beach and hotel didn't do anything except check camera,

Prós: Beach

Contras: Nothing

Prós: Stuff Speshialy Mr. Abdelazez & Room.& Food.& The pool

Contras: Nothing. Every thing was amazing but I suggest to offer the Turkish cofe

Prós: Location, food, staff

Contras: Nothing

Prós: • Reception very efficient • Room ready very quickly • Adequate selection of food • Beds very comfortable • Air conditioner was virtually silent • Built a special feeding area for the wild birds (wonderful!) • Animation team was very involved with guests & work really hard to ensure a festive time is had by all • Ice cream every afternoon • staff do their best to accommodate requests & deal with complaints • Very few mosquitoes

Contras: • Have to walk to the end of a 750m jetty to get to the sea where you can snorkel • First few hundred metres are great for children, as it’s very shallow, but not ideal if you want to have a ‘quick’ dip • Jetty is shared with the sister hotel next door (Royal Tulip) so the snorkelling area can get congested

Contras: Check in process took like 3 hours

Prós: Cleanliness. Staff specially mr. Mostafa from the reception. Shaban from restaurant. Mohamed from the swimming pool bar... Animation team was so good amr. And heba. Snorkeling is great. The room is perfectly cleaned and quite.. All the hotel is clean

Contras: The food was not good at all it seams the chef is reducing the cost... Lunch and dinner are poor. Also the big swimming pool is not very clean and a lot of broken bricks.

Prós: Every thing

Contras: Food,

Prós: Small Hotel with perfect services

Prós: Facilities Food Staff Beach

Contras: Expensive for Egyptian residents

Prós: The reef and the beach, staff, excellent room. High quality food.

Contras: Almost no real snacks.No food variations. Many extra fees services out of all inclusive.

Prós: beach

Contras: lots of extra charges

Prós: The extra we paid for our own personal family beach meal was outstanding

Prós: Food was very well prepared and with quality ingredients. Staff was extremely kind and professional. The beach is beautiful and the coral reef amazing. The dive center (Orca Dive) is very professional and has great equipment.

Contras: The fitness studio is really poor, with very few machines and otherwise all other spa facilities are not complimentary.

Prós: food is very good and stuff also is very nice everything was very good in total

Prós: Ibrahim is a fantastic host he is a solo traveler also so he knows what you need. the structure is comfortable and rooms quiet and clean. If you have any question ask and ibrahim will help you. From booking a tour to order food or grab a taxi. Kitties are all around.

Contras: Marsa Alam City is nothing special but the reef is astonishing

Prós: Rooms were big and comfortable in everyway. We asked for local breakfast and it was no problem for them to change from the normal bread and jams. Marsa Alam is very strange in its set-up, you have the waterfront (forget lively boardwalks or beachside entertainment areas) then a strip of desert and unfinished resort building projects. Then the road that this and a few other hotels are on, then a large strip of desert littered with more unfinished resorts and finally the town. Rihana guest house is a fair walk from the town centre, but would definitely not have wanted to stay anywhere else. Great place.

Contras: Mosquito (but repellent and also mosquito nets were provided...and they were everywhere in the town anyway)

Prós: The room was big and clean and the mosquito net was welcome, because there is a lot of mosquitoes at night (bring repellent!). The use of the refrigerator in the kitchen was nice to keep the water cold. You can even get cooked meals delivered to the guesthouse. There is a menu available for the guests. The breakfast is a typical Egyptian breakfast of warm bread, yogurt, a hard boiled egg, jam, butter and honey. Simple but filling. But it was really the owner, Ibrahim, that made my stay special. He’s very nice, super funny and is always telling you interesting stories or fun facts about all and nothing. All my love to the cats Ibrahim!

Contras: Nothing!

Prós: Ibrahim was a great host, and helped with any questions we had about Marsa Alam and any activities we wanted to do. The outdoor area in the front of the hostel was great also, such a nice area to relax and chill out after a day diving.

Contras: WiFi didn't always work.

Prós: was good

Prós: Mahmoud is a great host who will arrange taxi, trips, diving and food delivery.

Contras: Not much to do in town, but I already knew beforehand.

Prós: Relatively clean B&B with bad breakfast in a ghost town

Contras: I arrived here mid December, so it's definitely off-season, there's really not much open! The area around the B&B has nothing but half finished ghost hotels. There was exactly one café open without a menu (you just get okish fish, 80 EGP), no supermarket, no pharmacy, no other restaurant! The shore had no real beach, it's a local port, the next (bathing) beach was 5km away! It's also 15min walk to the town... The staff there (Mahmud) can barely speak English which makes it very difficult to arrange transport or breakfast. Speaking of, breakfast is very basic (flat bread, hard boiled egg, honey, yoghurt) and had no variation. Also be aware, they try to charge you 2€/day extra for Wifi which is not working in the rooms and consists of an LTE stick in the kitchen with a limited data plan. The room was relatively clean, but the pillows and mattress were very hard! After three creepy days almost alone in this B&B I moved to another place in Marsa Alam!

Prós: My stay by Ibrahim was really good. The host was really fine. He arranged everything for me. For example my dives on elphinstone. Every thing went on an easy way. The house is super confortable. The view great

Prós: Room, food, sea, reef, location, friendly staff

Contras: No key for the second guest. An oversition service for the delivery of luggage

Prós: The location of this resort is perfect for those wishing to experience Wadi El Gamel National Park. If you need assistance for a trip into the park as you can not drive yourself then we can stop by the ranger station right beside the property and they can assist you arrange a guide or take you themselves which we had arranged which was a wonderful experience. The red sea experience is fantastic with great snokelling right off the property private beach. Bring your own equipment.

Contras: The property is an all inclusive resort catering for European family travelers. The only food option is buffet for all meals with limited vegetarian options. Expect limited if any staff service and warm beer.

Prós: I like most the charming nature of the place.

Contras: They need to increase the pillows and enhance the beds to be more comfortable.

Prós: Everything

Prós: The beach location is an amazing spot for extraordinary sea creatures (big turtles) Food is tasty and there are multiple choices

Contras: None

Contras: Rooms outdated so are airconditioners. Barfridges not working. Drinks not cold. Entertainment poor. No coffee or tee facilities in rooms.

Prós: Beach and nature

Contras: It doesn't desrve that much money, cost is too high

Prós: The location was nice, safe beach for kids and the food was tasty most of the staff are friendly

Contras: The smell of the room could be better the music played around the resort was the same song over and over it drove us crazy

Prós: Nice garden and pools are clean. Food is ok and staff friendly.

Contras: I asked for a room on the top floor was told I will get one but on arrival was put on the first floor. Where the cellular reception is poor.

Prós: Amazing staff, diving center nearby. The bay.

Contras: Wifi not included on booking, no Atm inside

Prós: Rooms were very modern And clean Food was great Staff very professional Beach was beautiful

Contras: if you want to spend $20 usd a meal for food poisoning this is the place to go. We’ve been in Egypt three weeks without any issues, stayed here two nights and immediately got food poisoning. How do we know it was them? Well there’s only once place to eat at the resort - an extremely overpriced buffet. So we didn’t eat anywhere else. They charge a ridiculous amount for a meal, only provide one place to eat, and then food poisoning you. Great.

Prós: All the staff is very kind and always smiling and very helpful. Room was clean. Recreation and animation team is really doing their best. The pools are nice, beach is great, a coral reef is amazing.

Contras: Resort needs some renovation. Wi-fi is payable, it would be great to have it free at least in lobby. Variety of food is quite poor.

Prós: Great great staff at breakfast, food was good, very nice room and good shower. Great corals near the pier.

Contras: Transfers and tours are SO overpriced. I ended up going to the road asking for a ride to get to the bus station.

Prós: The reef is just astonishing! Free WiFi, food quality is ok and with plenty of options also for vegans and vegetarians. The guys are making a huge effort to improve the place. The room was clean

Contras: Sometimes during the day we didn't have hot water. I had to argue with one of the guys at the taxi counter and with the man at the clothing shop (the one close to the tea shop) because I didn't buy a shirt after trying it on...but this is not the hotel's fault

Prós: The massages i had the best ever though. Snorkeling is great and beach is lovely. The staff are excellent and always go the extra mile for you!

Contras: Passable, we stayed for 14 nights it's okay, we all got tummy problems from the raw food, it's in middle of nowhere and the in house taxi is a RIP off, so are the shops inside the hotel as you cant go anywhere else without spending 30 on a taxi to the local shopping centre.

Prós: People super friendly, food a lot of variation and fresh and delicious!

Prós: Next to beach! Has a nursery service which the boys loved; Yoga session in the afternoon! The reef for snorkelling just in front of the hotel!

Contras: No hot water in our room. Once you are in the resort you are kind of stuck in it and if you wanna go to marsa Alan you need to take a taxi which cost around €40 in Egypt! But you can walk to the main st and get a local transport for €1. Everything is in Euros and the shows at night can be improved! The water slides don't work ! Food is OK ,nothing superb apart from the sweets which are amazing!

Prós: Staff was very friendly, the room and hotel in general were very clean, the beach was awesome with great and easy access to the reef. Food was abundant and varied. Animation was friendly and organized lots of activities, although we did not participate a lot because we just wanted to chill. A special thank you goes to Misha and Sam. Overall it was a beautiful holiday with a great value for money

Contras: We were happy with everything at the hotel, except for the guy that works at the tour/taxi desk in the lobby, Aladin from New Line Travel. He was rude, always tried to force us to buy his tours (which is quite common in Egypt, but he was the only one to be EXTREMELY rude, to the point of insulting us). He has absolutely no idea how to talk to guests and should not be allowed to insult the hotel's guests.

Prós: Food, staff, beaches were amazing.

Prós: Everything was great perfect clean awesome different food everyday

Contras: The kitchen staff even tho the food is wonderful but they need work on the staff

Prós: Very good hotel, professional and friendly staff, rooms are clean , animation team is perfect, strongly recommend❤️

Prós: The staff is so friendly

Prós: The stuff, every one was so nice and helpful, especially the restaurant and the bar , they were soooo nice and smiley and funny

Prós: Very quit place and good to relax and excellent place to spend a comfortable time away from noise and harassment View is beautiful, the sea and nature are wonderful

Contras: Room service is very poor they only cleaned the room when I asked them The place is not safe and full of piets and there are no pesticides for grass and insects There is no activities to do it at night and night club always closed
