The Oberoi Beach Resort Sahl Hasheesh

The Five Star Oberoi Beach resort, named one of the best 25 hotels in the world by TripAdvisor, boasts 48 acres of gardens, pools and paths to be explored. Unwind in a huge 43 metre swimming pool with separate areas for adults and children, two whirlpools and stunning views out to sea. The buildings have high, domed ceilings that allow natural light to flood in, highlighting traditional style touches. Wander out to Egypt’s Red Sea shores and you the crystal-clear waters are a haven for wildlife, around 20 percent of the world’s fish species live here alongside more than 400 species of coral. These waters can be explored from the resort’s dedicated diving centre, where PADI-accredited instructors head out with underwater explorers of all abilities. Explore further afield with a private boat trip, taken from the resort’s own dock, camel ride, a day trip to Luxor or 4x4 desert safari. Back at the resort, skilled hands deliver massages and Balinese, Thai and signature Oberoi treatments in the resort spa, which includes a luxury suite for couples.. Those feeling a touch more active may prefer a trip to the fitness centre. Once you’ve worked up an appetite, the two resort restaurants offer international and Asian meals with a choice to dine inside or on a terrace with views towards the sunset. Relaxed dining is available too, a poolside pergola serving a range of healthy, and some more indulgent, treats. End the day with a nightcap at The Bar, with a marble interior, or outside space where guests enjoy the light sea breeze, before retiring to bed in your own personal suite.
