Don't know where to start. Arrived 2nd may for 14 nights with my girlfriend and was so impressed with this resort. We requested a room by the cactus pool as this is mainly British area. Jimmy the barman really made this holiday and we are already planning on coming back to see him. Nothing was too much trouble for any... More

We have just returned from an amazing 2 weeks at this Hotel and would have no hesitation in recommending it to family and friends!!! Following advice from previous guests we emailed reservations to request a room near the Cactus pool. The room we were given was 2902 and it was perfect,spotlessly clean and huge. Mustapha kept it clean and we... More

I'll start with the Pro's of this hotel: - It's location: 15 minute walk upto Naama Bay, supermarket, mcdonalds, pharmacy & a few other shops opposite hotel entrance, short distance from airport. Con's: - Hotel Overall: nowhere near 5* accommodation, we paid good money to enjoy 5* accommodation and this was a huge dissapointment, i'd give it a 3* if... More

Just returned from a week at the Sonesta Beach. Have to say that this place is very good indeed, and ideal for people seeking guaranteed sunshine and a relaxing time hanging around the pool. We always managed to find a sun lounger around the Cactus Bar pool, and we were superbly well looked after by Jimmy the bar man. The... More

Only food was good more or less, other options (service, location, etc.) were awful! Beach? It's not a beach, just small piece of sandy ground, a lot of stones in water, be careful!!! It's not for family with children!!!

It was only a short walk to the Le Dome restaurant ,we ate there most nights as... More

We stayed for 12 nights early May 2013, very nice clean hotel with vast grounds, the cactus pool is (as mentioned in previous reviews) where most Brits get placed. This pool has one of the most friendly barmen you will ever meet (Jimmy “trouble” Handsome). I would totally recommend this hotel and would return in a minute. The only minus... More
