This was our fourth visit to the Marsa Alam area and the fourth different hotel. This was the best by some distance. The location is stunning. It has the best of both worlds with a sandy beach with almost a mediterannean feel, with coral reef at the north nand south of the bay - providing excellent snorkelling. The food was... More

We have previously stayed at Coraya Bay and Lamaya Hotel and 3 Corners. Overall, this was the best at Sol Y Mar Abu Dabbab. The reef was great and lovely to see the turtles and Guitar sharks in the centre of the bay. Also lovely to have a proper beach as well as reef, so we could just swim if... More

AWFUL drunk Russian & Polish clientele but good hotel. Thomson mislead us by saying 'Hurry only 4 rooms left'. They actually only have 4 rooms in this 500 bed hotel! Do be warned you may well have the same thing happen. So far Thomson have only had this hotel on the books since the end of Nov. We were the... More

Ok, so where to start. When we arrived, we were not able to have what we had booked which was a twin room. They said we have enough room with a Queen bed - but my hubby has restless leg syndrom and taught Michael Flately everything he knows whilst asleep. Every 18 seconds he fidgets and even if he is...

We stayed here for 2 weeks in November 2011. Arriving early evening our check-in was swift and we were soon escorted with our luggage to our sea view room. Unfortunately we were placed in a room with a connecting door to our neighbouring room and although you could not access unless both doors were open you could hear even the... More

I've stayed in this hotel for one week in the middle of september. At the beginner we've got 2 rooms in the end of the resort but after an hour guys at the reception changed them for great rooms just in front of the beach. I'm not a fan of resorts and organised holidays, but in Egypt it is difficult... More

Amidst generally poor service (queues in restaurant, poor display of food, noisy environment) you should be aware that you will be interrupted throughout the day by staff trying to sell trips, massages etc. If you decide to keep one of your rooms after 12.00 o'clock be sure to leave your other key at reception or they'll charge for both rooms....
