FranceThe best decision we made was booking in Reef House in Marsa Alam. Every day we had different kind of breakfast, the collaborators were great! All of them in their role, Taha, Dahi, Yahia, Mahmoud and Mustafa were very kind and helpful with us during our stay. Awesome place owned by Amr, who also became a friend.
Also Zizo who was our diving teacher made the experience hard to beat!
Everything is high quality when you make things with love! thank you and we wish all the best!
hope we can return soon!

We stayed at the hotel from May 4th to May 20th. We arrived around 1:00 AM, but official check-in was only after 2:00 PM. However, the staff was very accommodating and we were already in our room by 1:30 AM.
Breakfast, lunch, and dinner were all delicious. We never saw any queues at any of the food outlets. Even during the busiest breakfast hour, there were at most 2-3 people in line in front of the chef making omelets or fried eggs—just waiting for their order. I’d particularly like to highlight that at any time, there are a huge number of waiters in the restaurant who are extremely quick to bring drinks and clear dirty dishes—literally instantly. We dined at the outdoor restaurant, where for every 20-30 tables there were always 5 waiters working. Everything was top-notch!
Every day, the main restaurant offered several types of meat, a wide variety of side dishes, and a huge selection of dishes. The mussels were especially impressive—absolutely excellent!
Overall, my impressions of the hotel were only positive—I didn’t notice any downsides, just pluses. I’ve never seen so many beach attendants (beach boys) at any other hotel. There are lots of them—they walk around every 5 minutes offering drinks, all day long.
Among all the hotels around the bay, Jaz Lamaya is the most convenient in terms of its proximity to the pier.
There was never a shortage of sun loungers by the sea, although it was very crowded around the pool.
Every day, a PR representative named Christina walks around the hotel grounds. She listens carefully to all requests and resolves any issues instantly. Christina, huge respect to you!

We chose the hotel as our first all-inclusive holiday resort experience and it was way beyond our expectations. We were upgraded to a family room with a private pool sharing with our nearby buildings and even without that, there were so many pools of different depths and for different activities around, so spaces and availability were never an issue. There was also a private beach which people do snorkelling. There were daily programmes and performance catered for different ages and groups. We watched night-time water show (hoverboard) and had fun at the afternoon pink party (foam party in central pool). The waterpark for children and adults were fantastic with different slides and facilities. There were bar, food court, and restaurant scattering around the resort, so food and drink were never too far away. Food were great - different restaurants to choose with cuisines of various regions and cultures. Special BBQs and roasts, fruit specials, pastry and desert - like food shows every day. We were also offered to a special dinner (with live music performance) and attended an a-la-carte dinner party.
Staff were really friendly and helpful. We also used the travel agents at the lobby to arrange day trips of snorkelling in the Red Sea and visiting Luxor. The hotel seemed to be known and popular among European visitors, but less for British ones. It's not as busy or crowded as other popular locations that we saw in most travel agency's holiday packages. I'd definitely recommend.

We had the best stay in Steigenberger Coraya Beach. i so recommend this place if you want to try a real 5 star experience. The service they offer is just unbelieveable, you think of something and they find a way, no matter what. Never experienced such a thoughtful way of handling guests, we literally couldn't think of anything we needed, because here it was all provided, without needing to ask. Very warm welcome from all the staff, in the end we had a feeling that it was more of a family than hotel guests and personnel. Everybody was really nice, they had events for the guest all the time, food was great and many many options every day, there was not a boring moment in the whole week. Great shisha place, where you can even sit outside next to the sea and smoke shisha there. Great idea and set up for such an activity. Staff is constant asking for feedback in order to improve their services, so all in all, we couldn't have found a better hotel for our holiday, we had a great stay, and we definitely will go back if we will have the chance. Thank you for everything once again, the best holiday ever for us, and big part of it is because of your hotel and service. Definitely 5 stars! 🌟

It was very close to the Abu Dabab beach, which was one of the best beaches I've ever been to, with amazing snorkelling, sunbathing and diving opportunities, and some nice bars to get some cold beers. The rooms were clean, cosy, and comfortable, and the area around was full of flowers and greenery, which gave such a nice feel to the place. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, always making sure we were ok, and the food in the restaurant was great. This place is great for SCUBA divers or people who like to spend most of their time by the ocean.

We stayed in the tent and chalet. It’s a different experience but both are wonderful. Everything centred around and well organised for guests to enjoy underwater life to the max. The concept attracts a certain type of clientele, mostly divers, who are not there to party and make noise but to enjoy and respect nature. Wonderful to disconnect.

I love Marsa Alam and Abu Dabab most, as far as the Red Sea goes. My favourite place of all time is the Concorde Moreen Hotel, with the Hilton coming a strong second.
We only ate at the hotels, because our time was limited.
I used the taxi service offered online by Booking.com, which I found to be very efficient and reasonable. But I am also a seasoned traveller in Egypt and do not find it difficult to negotiate with taxi drivers. (It can be very useful to ask Chat GPT first what an average trip should cost you, if you are unsure, and then use that as a guideline for your negotiations.)
It's an amazing experience to go out on a boat, but picking the right one can make the difference. I will be leaving my review on our experience separately (as it warrants a whole story on its own :))

"I did not leave the grounds of the Iberotel Costa Marès. There are already so many wonderful things to do like snorkeling, diving, massages and especially the many activities offered by Captain Mahmoud's extraordinary team and the high quality shows performed in the evening. All the staff are adorable, attentive, attentive both on the beach and by the pool as well as in the various restaurants, not to mention the maintenance staff and gardeners, the cooks, the waiters (mention special for Ahzem from the main restaurant, Abd Allah at the pool restaurant, Mostafa who is part of Mahmoud's team, Hod Hod on the beach and many others of whom I don't really know the spelling of their first name. are all very courageous, with a sense of humor and kindness like I have rarely seen. Everything is put in place so that you only want to do one thing... come back as quickly as possible."

I mentioned everything in my review, what I liked and didn’t...
I mentioned everything in my review, what I liked and didn’t like. Mainly, I noticed that someone bought a quad bike tour, and they were taken just a little way behind the hotel to ride on a pile of sand for a short while. There was trash and plastic all around, a complete wasteland—nothing pretty. I’m used to greenery, which I understand is lacking in this destination, but I definitely wouldn’t buy an overpriced camel or quad bike tour. Especially because, in that heat, it wouldn’t be an enjoyable experience for me, and with the trash around, definitely not. I did a diving trip, but it ended up being canceled. Unfortunately, they made us leave our things (like backpacks) in a place where locals were moving around, and we had no way to secure them. The original plan was that we would be on a boat. In the end, it didn’t happen, and that was probably for the best. I booked the trip through Booking. I had no particular expectations, even though we were supposed to see dolphins. Eventually, I arranged for diving, and I enjoyed it. Since I’m already a diver, it was easy, but when I saw how they even turn diving into a business, it bothered me. I saw parents forcing their 12-year-old daughter to try diving. She was crying, didn’t want to do it, but the father insisted because it was paid for. I watched her struggle and feel uncomfortable. It saddens me to see that everything can be bought with money, and that’s just wrong.
