Mövenpick Sharm El Sheikh

Fabulous location overlooking Naama Bay. Beautiful views, gardens and scenery. Red Sea snorkelling directly off the beach with a huge array of fish, all the usuals; trigger fish, puffers, parrot, pads etc but we also saw barracuda, lion fish, eagle and sting rays. Air temperature about 30, water a bit cooler, prob 25/26. Every member of staff was friendly and helpful. Room is tidy and clean with usual toiletries. There’s plenty of choice of food at the buffet including gluten free bread. The Indian restaurant was really nice too. It’s a pleasant stroll down to the variety of shops in Sharm centre for all the clothes, bags etc but I would suggest go late afternoon and not alone. US dollars seems to be the preferred currency but Pounds are also accepted. Responding to previous reviews; a new escalator is being built between reception and the pool area so you won’t need to walk up the steps anymore. We did get a few mosquito bites but never had a problem with them per se. Personally I found the horses at the stables a little underweight/ undermuscled, I’d rather not say anymore but as a lifetime horse owner, I chose not to ride. There’s just a couple of things that would have made our stay 5*; The hotel really needs to buy some more sun loungers! There isn’t enough for all the guests, there needs to be at least another 20 around the pool and another 20 spread across the beach. It’s unacceptable to have to wait in a queue to be seated during the day and this small investment would really make a difference to the quality of the holiday. The all inclusive tariff is a little confusing. Basically, it covers the food and drinks at the buffet and drinks at the beach but only the reception bar at night. Whilst the prices are very reasonable, I would rather have been charged an extra few pounds when booking my holiday so I could get a drink anywhere, including the mini bar fridge! Please can hotels supply milk to the room or at least have some cartons available at the breakfast buffet to take away? it’s a real pain having coffee/tea making facilities without the milk to make it! Lastly, I have a sensitive stomach and suffered from a poorly tummy quite a few times. It was the tap water. Please clean your teeth with bottled water and don’t have any ice in your drinks. The food is all very clean and absolutely fine, it’s nothing to do with the kitchen. Probably the best hotel in Sharm, just far enough away from ‘the strip’ which is crammed. 15 minute drive from the airport which is great but you will see and hear a few planes. (Sharm airport was very smooth, lots of security but also a Burger King, cafe, shops etc and the best smoking room I’ve ever seen complete with English pub) On the whole, we’d return for some more November sun and sea.

Too much off mosquito’s, I’m requesting from 2 nights, they sent coils but not working, mosquitos mechanic, but no use of it. who brings the kids here plz be careful, tooo tooo much of mosquitos even all doors are closed. Property is good staff is good, but mosquitos also very good, thank you for not helping us 😡

The rooms are a good size and the location is great. However, the food options are limited, with rice being a staple everywhere. At the beach bars, you'll be charged extra for coffee and alcoholic drinks before 12 pm, and you'll receive them in paper cups, not cold unless you tip. By 7:30 am, all the sunbeds are usually taken, as people put their towels down early and then head to breakfast or the pool. I spoke with reception and the beach manager, but nothing seems to be done about it - apparently, they're hesitant due to the large number of Russian guests. Drinks at the outside bar were overpriced (£70 for 2 poor cocktails and 3 shots of cognac with no price list). Our friend went to snack bar to get a sandwich and been told no sandwiches left but they can cook one for €16..He paid €16 for a sandwich which should have been free.

Location and service are very nice, hotel so beautiful and atmosphere is amazing specially in evening. Animation team is great and so funny. Room is great. I will recommend this hotel to everyone
