Movenpick - Value for Money

Advantages: Views, Snorkelling
Disadvantages: Food

Given the cracking deal I got for two weeks staying at this hotel, I had my doubs about the kind of quality I could expect from this hotel. I was very pleasantly surprised and certainly came away from my holiday feeling I had value for money. The hotel is set in lovely grounds, and is well maintained. My room had a pool/ocean view and I never tired of looking out towards Jordan and Saudi Arabia. The fantastic weather does of course help, but we ...
...a mere five paces from our sunlounger meant that we could literally go snorkelling whenever we liked. It was great. Food is a bit bland, but check out the other three restaurants for more choice. The Hilton is next door and offers a wider selection of shops, bars and a pharmacy if required. ...

Review of Movenpick Resort, Taba

I didn't feel I had paid enough - it was amazing!

Advantages: Many of them, flight not too long, very high quality, great food, great location, fantastic!
Disadvantages: The sun went down a little too early...but you cannot blame the hotel for that!

We went to this hotel in October, the weather was certainly hot enough at that time of year. I had seen pictures on the internet, but know from experience that often pictures can be deceiving! We flew from Manchester, with a flight of just 5 hours, which is long enough to sample the food that the flight had to offer (Mmmmm!) and watch a film. It is not a bad flight time to somewhere that has great weather and fantastic culture. I had been to Egypt ...
...well organized. We seemed to get off the plane on to a coach quite quickly. It was dark by the time be landed, so not realizing that we were travelling through the Sinai Mountains, as I couldn't see them, I presumed the driver was a typical Egyptian not able to keep the vehicle going in a straight line! They are pretty scary on the roads! But on the journey back to the airport two weeks later, realized he had actually done quite well! The Hotel was ...

Review of Hyatt Regency Taba Heights, Taba

dissapointing summer holiday

Advantages: hot sunny weather, spotlessly clean
Disadvantages: food, entertainment, basic rooms/facilities

We've just come back from a week at this hotel, and I must say it was very disappointing. The rooms were very basic, although they were well cleaned, and in good condition (we were staying in the second block at the back, which I think is relatively new, so it should have been in good condition really). We were half board, and for the first couple of days the food on offer was just about ok, but then we realised there was nothing new on offer, and ...
...only warm, and the best food on offer was the salads. There is also a restaurant, which costs extra to eat in. We went twice, and it was empty apart from us both times. Unfortunately the second time we went, within hours we were ill, and spent the last full day of our holiday in our room unable to move! There was half an hour of entertainment each evening, which itself was good, but it was only 30 minutes, and at half past ten, they start clearing ...

Review of The Three Corners Fayrouz Plaza Beach Resort, Marsa Alam

A great place to go, as long as you don't eat!!

Advantages: Staff are amazing, sun, beach, pools, value for money
Disadvantages: Terrible food!!

...sunny around May. They suggested Sol Y Mar Sea Star in Taba, Egypt. The hotel is all inclusive -----Location----- Taba is located right up in the North East on Egypt, close to Israel and Jordan. It's a great place to stay if you wanted to visit a few different countries as you are not far from Israel, Jordan and also Saudi Arabia. It really is in a fantastic location for visiting all these countries, and the tour operator that we went with (Thomas ...
...is a short drive from Sol y Mar. This is like a small town, with a few big hotels around twenty shops/stalls, places to eat and a golf course. We went for a day, and, to be honest, I wouldn't go back. There was a supermarket, which was useful, but the other shops were disappointing - we bought nearly nothing and I am a shopaholic! They weren't all open, and when I went in some of them, I felt as though I was being pushed into buying something. There ...
