This has to be the most fantastic hotel that I have had the privilege of staying in. The flight to Egypt and the bus ride from the airport had me a little concerned as to what to expect, not to mention the security barricade that sits in front of the entrance to the... more

My wife and I enjoyed the best fortnights holiday you could ever wish for. The facilities, food, and service, could not be bettered. Always plenty of room and sun beds. Trust me, your own mother could not treat you any better! Make sure you try the brilliant desert... more

We visited this hotel in Nov 2006 and had a perfect holiday. The resort was very quiet - probably not even half full. We were amazed at the size of the hotel we have never seen anything so huge; as a consequence to get around the resort there is plenty of walking. The... more

Fantastic hotel, very clean and tidy. Three lovely big swimming pools with plenty of sun beds all with parasols. Did not go a day without getting our own beds for the whole day but, you need to be early to get one by the pool, if that’s what you want although, there are... more

Our first week was spent on a fantastic cruise down the Nile so this hotel had a lot to live up to. The hotel is in a fantastic location and once you have braved the sharp coral the beach and fish are fantastic. You must buy a snorkel (£10 in hotel shop - although the... more

We flew from Glasgow with Futura. The flight attendants were fairly uninterested, doing the bare minimum to keep everyone quiet. Because the weather was clear all the way, we got great views of Athens, the Greek islands and the Nile River during the flight. First... more

We have just returned from a week's holiday at this wonderful hotel. The brochures do not lie, and portray the hotel exactly as it is. The hotel was only about two thirds full, but it is spread over such a huge area that even if it were full, there would be plenty of room... more
