So if it’s a beach holiday you’re after, you’ll enjoy the seclusion of the hotel’s private beach. Whether you want to doze away your days soaking up the sun and topping up your tan, or whether you want to go diving, then Sharm el Sheikh has something for you. If you enjoy diving, then the sea has many attractions. The tropical fish are a stunning sight, and because the sea is crystal clear, you won’t miss a thing. The coral reefs are truly beautiful and you’ll certainly not want to miss the Ras Mohammed national park which is an amazing underwater reserve.

The Grand Hotel Sharm el Sheikh, is a modern hotel and a fine example of five star luxury living. Its elevated site means that it boasts stunning views across the Red Sea and out to the Tiran islands. The hotel is adjacent to a private beach which provides access to the coral reef.
The hotel has all of the facilities you’d expect from a five star hotel. As well as the private beach, you can choose from eight swimming pools (and there’s even a separate pool just for the children). There’s a limousine service so you can get from A to B in style. And you can dine in style in one of the many restaurants, including a la carte restaurants, or informal buffets.
The hotel has an abundance of entertainment ranging from beach volleyball through to belly dancing courses. And if you want to exercise your brain as much as your body, there’s even the chance to learn Arabic. (Please note that courses are subject to availability.) As much as everyone likes to get away, it’s good to stay in touch and there is an internet area along with free Wi-Fi access in the lobby.
For added reassurance, it’s good to know that there is a guest relations desk if you have any questions. And there’s also a 24 hour medical service – you’re not likely to need this, but it’s always good to know the service is there if you do.
