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

All-in Sofitel Taba Heights, great snorkelling and decent food

Advantages: All inclusive, snorkelling and diving, good rooms, private beach, great views over mountains
Disadvantages: Concretey, beach is pebbly and course, spread over a large area

We went to the Sofitel Taba Heights as a family get-together by the sea. It is a very concrete resort spread over an area of coastline, and has its own private beach, which is rather pebbly so I would recommend buying beach/swimming shoes. The sand also gets very hot in summer and is too hot to walk on without damaging your feet. The snorkelling is excellent. We swam off the Sofitel's jetty and were amazed when the first thing we saw was a blue spotted ...
...had the salads! Overall, I would recommend the Sofitel Taba Heights to anyone who likes snorkelling (although there are pools too) and diving (there's a nearby dive centre, called waterworld, which offers free transport to and from the hotels. The food is fine and the all inclusive is excellent! ...

The Amazing Three Corners!

Advantages: Everything
Disadvantages: Nothing at all!!

...2 weeks and it was the best holiday we have ever had. It was our first time to Egypt and were so excited, we were not let down when we arrived. When we booked it Taba Heights was still an up and coming area and apparently it now has a huge golf course and a shopping area. When we were there there were only 4 hotels including ours. This hotel was amazing, it was really upmarket. The rooms were fantastic, we had a mountain view and the scenery of the ...
...was the best AI we have experienced. Food great especially the Sushi on theme nights. The beach was just amazing, you could see Saudi Arabia, Israel and Jordan from the Beach and these views were beautiful. We spent most of our time at the beach as the pool got quite crowded. You do have to pay for food and drinks at the beach but it is quite cheap. There wasnt much entertainment at nights but we met some wonderful people (2 of which we still keep ...

Review of The Three Corners El Wekala Golf 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 ...
