Sol Y Mar Sea Star, Taba

'''Review of Sol Y Mar Sea Star''' _Introduction_ After a rather stressful year for both myself and my other half we searched around for late deals before deciding upon Egypt and in particular Taba, situated next to the border of Jordan and Saudi Arabia. Booked through Hays Travel, flying with Thompson but represented in Taba by Holidays4u.com we travelled early August 2008 to Sol Y Mar Sea Star Hotel. ===Arrival=== Upon arriving at Sol Y Mar ...
...===Beach=== Sol Y Mar Sea Star has its own section of the red sea beach, a short 5 minute walk from the hotel where once again the all inclusive payment extends to the bar just down from the hotel. Here you can exchange a free ticket for a beach towel meaning you don't have to lug your own down there and back. Here you can go snorkelling in the reefs fairly close to shore with the fantastic range of coloured fish that live in these waters. For me, ...

Review of Sol Y Mar Sea Star, Taba

Review of Sol Y Mar Sea Star, Taba

If you want a nice peaceful holiday this is the place, but if your a fussy eater i wouldn't recommened it as the food selection is quite poor, its grilled vegatables, beef in different forms each day the same with chicken etc. The animation team are great, and Casper makes your holiday there. The rooms are great, very spacious and clean, you can also have a mini bar on request. There is a beach about 5-10 minutes away, its very clean, the sand ...
...and if you want dinner there they bring it over. They do quite a few trips, or you can do scuba diving near the beach and get your equipment too. There are 3 shops, one is a general shop selling shampoo to chocolate etc.. and the other 2 sell all the tourist stuff. ...
