Coral Beach Rotana Resort Tiran Hotel

I really enjoyed this holiday. The whole atmosphere of the resort was friendly and lively with the opportunity to chill out in a quieter pool when you wanted to relax.

The splash had a lively more active theme with the entertainment team being friendly and trying to include all age ranges in their games and activities, the one thing I would say is that some were very persistent when you did one activity they expected they to do all of them every day. The food was very good with a wide variety and pasta every night for the people who don’t like the other food.

Naama Bay was an experience and although the men were very full of compliments for girls and also very full of gifts they knew when to stop and I didn’t feel under a threat at any time. I would definitely go back to the hotel.

A beautiful Hotel, Spotlessly clean, with great service. The food was excellent if you could get past the Russians and Italians at the buffet. Question, What do the Russians do with the 10 oranges they take each, with every meal and how come the Italian women are so thin when they eat a tonne of pastries every morning?

A very relaxing Holiday in a wonderful hotel the service was top notch the only thing I could complain about was the lack of evening entertainment. The bar staff are brill and try their best but the animation team are just a waste of time. Snorkeling off the pontoon is a must, as are the quad bike rides through the desert, also the boat trip to find Nemo and YES we did, was well worth the money.

The shopping and nightlife in Naama Bay was not that great I don't go abroad to eat at McDonalds, Kentucky Fried Etc.and the hassle from the shopkeepers is so annoying, you get much better goods at cheaper prices in Turkey. Fantastic weather for an Easter break If you want to chill out by the pool (Bodyline) have fun and games (Splash Pool) Then this is the place to go.

Others have mentioned the steps up from the sea - all I would add is that they're not continuous, but lead from one terrace to the next. The views are excellent, particularly if you get a first floor room.

The food is, with one important exception, very good, but the meat we encountered was anything from ordinary to frankly awful and certainly not 4-star standard. The weather was sunny for every day except one, which was cloudy, but it tended to be windy sometimes.

The other problem was the number of young Russians dominating the hotel. For those who have not met this phenomenon, they are the new Germans - rude, arrogant and lacking a shred of manners between them. One pup came down to the beach early every morning to reserve 15 places for his friends!

There were about 40 benches available there in total, although there are more around the pools. Be prepared to do battle here and at the buffet counters in the dining room.

The hotel and grounds are great!, and very good value for money. The bedrooms are of a good size and are clean and comfortable. We found the staff to be friendly and helpful at all times, you are made to feel very welcome.

There are lots of steps (we counted 75 in all), but there are slopes as well for pushchairs and wheelchair users. We thought the food could have been a little more varied, but other than that it was great. We would definitely return!

PS the weather was fantastic!

Reception area bright clean and modern with a very proffessional standard by staff. Representative, perhaps the best we have met in over 30 years of travel.

Located in Sharks Bay, all rooms have either a sea view or a view of any one of the three pools. Rooms are comfortable, clean and well maintained. Food was buffet style in the main restaurant, a good variety and plenty available, (although in our second week of our stay, at very busy periods we found understandably that some items in the serveries had either run low or out, However a simple request to the chef's, did bring further quantaties). An excellent fish restaurant is on site, offering a five course meal (extra cost), unfortunately due to the cost few people seemed to use this in the evening.

Some of the Gym facilities along with spa treatments for the adults were out of action during our stay due to extension and rebuild. Facilities for young children are good and well maintained (pool, play area,dining chairs etc.). Hotel has its own Diving centre (concession), although English is spoken it's influence is more Italian.

Staff were all extremely pleasant, loved to share a little humour yet always retained a proffessional manner.

We were lucky to visit the sister hotel adjoining, The Grand Rotana Resort and Spa, we were made to feel very welcome and invited to make use of the luxury facilities its main pool would probably be best described as a lake.

I arrived in Sharm a little apprehensive, would I return? MOST DEFINITELY. SPLENDID!

This holiday at Coral Tiran is something I'll never forget... The food, the rooms the service were all just great. I truely loved the staff and the environment.... I can recomend it to anyone wnat's to relax and dive or snorkeling..

Returned from the Coral Beach Tiran mid August, What a time we had.The rooms were first class with food that you could always find something that you liked. We booked the P.A.D.i open water dive course on site with MrDiver, they were brilliant and better value than booking with the tour operator.The weather was intense but what you would expect in August. Only downside was you felt a little isolated and had to rely on the shuttle or taxi to visit anywhere else rather than under your own steam.We would definately recommend this Hotel to anyone.

The staff were pleasant and always very helpful, the main restaurant staff were helpful, food was the same no variety from each night and was on the most part luke warm to cold, and the doors were shut about 7.30pm because there were no free tables even though they had several tables not set up.

The pools were good. rooms were basic, bathrooms disappointing. There were 72 steep steps to the restaurant and reception which was not mentioned in the brochure. Very little entertainment in the evening. This hotel would suit people who want to lay on a sun bed all day or if you dive. The trips we found were a bit expensive.

Just got back, wish we could go again immediately. Food superb, staff cannot do enough for you.

Ignore the reps and book your diving direct with Mr Diver outlet on site you will not be disappointed.

all in all first class

Just came back from The Coral Beach Tiran about a month or so ago with my boyfriend, and what an amazing time we had. As soon as you step off the plane the intense heat hits you, however you soon get used to it, although this may seem hard to believe in 47 degrees heat! The coach was there waiting for us to take us on the short 15 minute journey to our hotel, it was great not having to be on the coach for too long, especially after the plane journey. Also, it was lovely and air-conditioned! As soon as the coach stops outside the hotel, you see how fab it is, there's a grand archway and marble floors, i think everything in the reception is made of marble!! This is a good idea, as it keeps it very cool and airy when it's very, very hot. Every single member of staff was so helpful when we arrived, helping us check in etc. Our room was cleaned so wonderfully, we gave our cleaner a hefty tip at the end of the week!! He did a brilliant job. There are such a selection of pools here, you're spoilt for choice. My boyfriend and I chose to stick to the one just outside our room, which was lovely as it was the quiet one, and there was probably only a maximum of 5 people there at a time. The highlight of our holiday would definetely be the snorkelling off the private beach at the hotel, it was AMAZING!! The jetty takes you out into the clear water of the Red Sea, where you are literally swimming with hundreds of amazingly coloured fish and coral. If you are lucky enough to go to egypt, then this is not to be missed! The restaurants at the hotel are fantastic, whoever had the cheek to complain about the food must be mad! There was such a variety in 'The Mermaids Cafe', meats, salads, pasta, fruit, deserts and so on, and its so well done, its very hard to complain. And the sandwiches in The Moka Cafe are delicious! This holiday was amazing, theres so much more to say, but i wont fit it all in! Obviously, we missed all the trouble that's happened over there, however i would not let this get in your way if you want to go here. You would be missing out, it is FANTASTIC! 10/10!! p.s You must do a camel ride!! Great fun!
