Unfortunately our last day of vacation, we were a group of about 40 persons, was ruined by Ali the person who manage in the village the quad bikes riding and also by the lack of the Hotel direction. In fact on our last day of vacation we organized a ride on the desert through a different operator outside the village... More

The gulf of Abu Dabbab is really wonderful place in Egypt. It's got sandy beach, blue water with waves and spectacular reef. Sometimes we can see turtles and dugongs there. If you like snorkeling it's place for you. Be aware that some people destroy corals, feed fish,frighten the animals and maybe soon this beautiful place may disappear. As for hotel:... More

This was our fourth visit to the Marsa Alam area and the fourth different hotel. This was the best by some distance. The location is stunning. It has the best of both worlds with a sandy beach with almost a mediterannean feel, with coral reef at the north nand south of the bay - providing excellent snorkelling. The food was... More

We have previously stayed at Coraya Bay and Lamaya Hotel and 3 Corners. Overall, this was the best at Sol Y Mar Abu Dabbab. The reef was great and lovely to see the turtles and Guitar sharks in the centre of the bay. Also lovely to have a proper beach as well as reef, so we could just swim if... More

Do be warned you may well have the same thing happen. So far Thomson have only had this hotel on the books since the end of Nov. We were the... More

Ok, so where to start. When we arrived, we were not able to have what we had booked which was a twin room. They said we have enough room with a Queen bed - but my hubby has restless leg syndrom and taught Michael Flately everything he knows whilst asleep. Every 18 seconds he fidgets and even if he is...
