It took around 40mins to check in which was far too long. I was allocated the room I had booked and was only given the room upgrade when I pointed out this was part of the VIP Expedia access. The hotel and facilities were great especially the pool and beach area and the staff were very helpful and nice

We got partial ocean view (really just a sliver) rooms and half board. The rooms were large and very clean with big balconies. The resort was very clean and super well maintained. Even though they said they were at capacity it never felt busy there. The beach is pristine with tons of seating any time of the day. The staff were always there to take care of everything and were extremely friendly. We took advantage of the free shuttle to the house reef off the pier which was some of the best diving I have done, reef is very healthy. Only issue we ran into is the rental gear for snorkeling was poor quality. Better to rent from the dive shop at the pier. Food was great. We ate in the Asian restaurant once, a beach grill once and the rest at the main restaurant. If eating away from the main restaurant it is very easy to exceed the meal plan credit. In general though this was extremely relaxing and wonderful, it is the best of Mexican all inclusive resorts with Fiji quality beaches but way cheaper than both.

the hotel is too old and the smell in the lobby and at breakfast was annoying, also the beds in the room had a peculiar smell, there were three of us in the room and they brought an old bed for the child, in general the hotel needs a major overhaul

Very exceptional resort. It is the pearl of the Red Sea. Amazing food, views and staff. If you are planning to visit Hurghada; just go to Kempinski Soma Bay. It’s unimaginable to believe that you can be literally standing at the beach and small fish visibly play around your ankle from how clear the water is. Words won’t do Justice to this resort. It’s a heaven on earth. Definitely one of the best resorts on the shoreline of Hurghada.

Very beautiful and clean property. The food buffet was very good. The staff was very kind and friendly. Very quiet and relaxing experience. I did not like that there was nothing to do at night. The souvenir and shopping area was very bad. I also did not like that the hotel tried to charge me 1800 L.E. instead of 600 L.E. for a taxi to the airport just because I am American.

The property is impeccable! All the employees were super friendly, respectful and help us with any possible necessity. The beach is a heaven, there is a coral reef super close, clear and clean water. Super nice beach service, special thank you for Alaa on the beach kiosk! Food was good with a great buffet with nice variety of foods daily. The pool restaurant also has great food. We enjoyed a lot the bars and the sunset party. Hotel has sections for family and adults only in the beach and amenities, it makes the hotel a good fit for all. The property and rooms are super well maintained, everything clean and beautiful. The room keeper took care perfectly about everything in our room, we loved it. My only regret was to not have more days in this paradise! I will definitely come back to this hotel and stay longer to enjoy it more and more.
