Breaks In Sharm el-Sheikh – Sharm el-Sheikh Hotels

Posted February 4, 2010 by BookingBuddy

With many airlines offering cheap flights to Sharm el-Sheikh, why not book yourself a ticket there to escape the last days of winter? This former port is now famous for its stunning underwater scenery and warm, crystal clear waters, making it a popular destination for scuba divers.

Stay 

Hilton Sharm el-Sheikh Fayrouz Resort – This family-friendly branch of the Hilton offers great value for money, and a wonderful location smack in the middle of Na’ama Bay. The resort’s private beach leads into the turquoise waters of the Red Sea – perfect for exploring its famed coral reefs. Diving novices can benefit from world-class instructors at the Gold Palm Dive Centre, or pay a visit to the watersports centre and lark about in a kayak. The hotel also offers guests a wide range of dining choices, with several bars and restaurants on-site. Rates start from about £90. 

See

Sharm el-Maya – The original old town of Sharm rests in a picturesque natural harbour about 15 minutes away from the more popular Na’ama Bay. While not as developed as Na’ama, it is a great place for a scenic stroll around, with a pretty, sandy beach and plenty of cute little boats resting in the harbour. The market here also offers lower prices than many of the shops at the more popular areas of Sharm el-Sheikh. 

Eat

Kan Zaman Restaurant – You’ll be treated to great food as well as unforgettable hospitality at this Bedouin-styled restaurant. The inside is laid out like a Bedouin settlement, with guests resting on large, comfortable cushions while enjoying their meal. Most items on the menu are perfect for sharing, with dishes ranging from pasta and fresh seafood, to mouth-watering platters of grilled meat.
