This hotel is simply outstanding. The staff members are incredibly helpful, and their motto seems to be solely focused on ensuring your satisfaction. They respond to every request with a cheerful "Of course!" The hotel grounds are very spacious, clean, and well-maintained. The pool is beautiful and impressive. The à la carte restaurants are exceptional, and the buffet is delicious—my fiancé and I had such a hard time deciding where to eat because everything was so good. The hotel management goes above and beyond to ensure guest satisfaction. Additionally, the evening events were a lot of fun! Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Words are not enough to describe this amazing new hotel. This is a 7 star hotel .The level of service passed all our expectations. That was our 1st experience with jaz group . We usually don't repeat any hotel but this one will definitely be our favorite destination from now on. We were welcomed by Mrs. Massaouda guest relation manager. A special thanks to her , very professional lady. she was our guide during our whole stay till our checkout. She made our reservation for the à la carte restaurant Amoura .The decor of the whole establishment is beautiful modern style with a beautiful lighting at night to take beautiful pictures.The room view was showing the whole swimming pools area and the sea, amazing view at night . Rooms are very spacious and room cleaning service is amazing .The service that was provided by the employees is extraordinary. Food is another wonderful point , made with a lot of care, details and very well presented , so tasty and alot of variety. The Italian restaurant on the pool was amazing also. The animation team are well educated and presentable. We also liked the dance show presented every day.For the beach we had to walk a long distance in water if we want to swim and we forgot our water shoes but Mrs Massaouda offered us a golf car to take us to the next hotel marina. But the hotel is now working on building their own Marina. But the beach color is beautiful and clean . The swimming pools are huge and warm and extremely clean . They even offer you to clean your sunglasses. This hotel is literally Elite in everything . Next time I will plan for longer vacation .

    Hi everyone! This was already my second time in Hurghada, staying at the Seagull Beach Resort. I knew what to expect when I came back, but honestly, it still managed to surprise me in the best way. The hotel is huge, with so many services included in the all-inclusive package, so you never run out of options. The staff are just amazing – super helpful and always smiling. I have to highlight Hani and Ahmed, the manager at the reception, and also Mohamed and Mahmoud on the beach, who were incredibly friendly and made me feel really welcome. Another big plus is the location. If you want some action, you just step outside the hotel and you’re right in the center of Hurghada. You don’t need any transfer – you can just walk to the marina, the mosque, or wander along the lively main street full of shops and restaurants. And for those who like adventures, there’s so much to choose from: safari tours, quad biking, diving, boat trips, or even full-day excursions to the pyramids, Luxor, the Valley of the Kings, Aswan, or Abu Simbel. All in all, it’s the perfect place to relax by the crystal-clear Red Sea and at the same time explore Egypt’s unforgettable sights. I would definitely recommend it to anyone!

    The resort is beautifully designed, they have lots of flowers and palm trees that really are taken care of. the rooms are spacious, the cleaning couldn’t be better and the staff is very attentive if you tip. The food was delicious and a lot of variety, even at breakfast time. Every evening they have a different specific cuisine so you can’t get bored. we also tried both of the restaurants: vista mare and the fish restaurant and both were delicious. I can’t understand how people can complain about the food, as we read online in Egypt you can really have problems with the food but here it’s not the case. As for the animation, the animation team is fun, we participated almost in every activity and we really enjoyed it. The resort also has a jogging trail that we ran every day. We will definitely come again here because we really enjoyed our stay. Thank you Cleopatra & thank you to all the people that made our stay feel so pleasant. Hakuna matata!

    I really liked the stay so much, starting from the warm welcoming by the entrance and handling our check-in quickly and softly by Mohamed at the reception. We started our stay by the snaks at Gamela restaurant and it was absolutely enjoyable especially with the smiling face of Remon. On the second day we met Mr. Khalid the guest experience manager by the lobby and he was extremely helpful and professional he arranged for us the anniversary room setup and the anniversary cake in the Mongolian restaurant, it was unforgettable dinner where we got hosted in the same restaurant by Mahmoud Yousef and Mr. Mohamed they arranged a nice table for us and made us really feel exceptional 😀 The follow up of the stay by Mr. Rashad the FO assistant manager was really appreciated and considered as a high level of professionalism.

    We really enjoyed our stay at Tropitel Sahl Hasheesh! The rooms were spacious, clean, and comfortable, and the amenities were great. The sea was beautiful — especially the area to the right of the pier — and perfect for snorkeling, with plenty of colorful fish and coral reefs to explore. The food was tasty and had a lot of variety, especially at the grill stations. You’ll always find something to enjoy. The night shows were enjoyable and different each evening, which kept things interesting. The staff were friendly and professional. A big thank you to Assistant Manager Mr. Zaki Said, Mr. Sameh Abbas at the reception, Mr. Mohammed and Mr. Toadros at the main restaurant, and Mr. Atef for his exceptional room service.. We look forward to coming back and repeating this enjoyable experience.

    We booked our stay here for our honeymoon. Everyone from start to finish has been very welcoming and helpful. The resort is huge with beautiful views all over. We had a honeymoon suite with sea views. The room and bathroom were huge! It was also very clean. We didn't know what to expect with food, but it turned out to be amazing! There are a few different buffet restaurants with different food options. The food selection in each of them changes daily for lunch and dinner, so you'll never get bored of the food! You can book excursions outside the hotel if you wish, or you can simply lounge by the beaches or pool. Either way you won't get bored. We have tried the spa and that was also a good experience! This is a perfect resort for honeymooners and we would definitely come back again!

    Hurghada is a very busy place and popular with all nationalities. I was diving every day so 8 hours a day at sea. I didn't use the shopping centre this time but have done so in the past and it was great. It used to be that you would get harassed continually by traders but not so much these days they really have backed off. I know my daughters found that intimidating when they were younger but today its fine.

    Some places offer excellent takeaway food.

    Some places offer excellent takeaway food. There is a public beach a little further away (a short walk across a small desert area) with exceptional underwater flora and fauna. Bring shoes for walking in the water. Please stay above or near the coral (personally, I didn't know there were risks to swimming too far from the reefs, namely sharks. But I didn't see any. On the other hand, there were some exceptional fish! Port Ghalib is a tourist spot but much, much quieter than Hurghada. If someone tries to sell you something, just say ‘La, chokram’ with a smile and everything will be fine. Don't forget to tip a little, as Egyptians earn very little (around €400 per month for a family of four). For activities, I recommend Royal Sea Tours (royalsea-tours.com), who are really great.

    I love Marsa Alam and Abu Dabab most, as far as the Red Sea...

    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 :))

    Very quiet town, simple and the sea is amazing.

    Very quiet town, simple and the sea is amazing. You can swim anywhere. No so much facilities ( food places, supermarkets,..) and pharmacies located around hotels. Weather is hot, limited gas stations and road is not preferable to be taken at night.

    The sea was beautiful.

    The sea was beautiful. Unfortunately strong winds kept me from going into the sea. We stayed mostly in the lagoons. There was no access to sea from the beach, only from the pier. The life guards were good and attentive.

    Very nice and friendly locals!

    Very nice and friendly locals! Not many tourists, no aggressive salesmen. The city is not rich, so expect some garbage lying around. Prices are generally very low, not adjusted for tourists (except at nearby hotels). We found only a few restaurants, but many fastfood places.
