As a couple we were looking for a hotel with good food & sunbathing facilities to chill out over Xmas. We found it. We went for 2 weeks all-inclusive from 17th Dec - 31st Dec 2008.

Originally booked for the Calimera Habiba in Marsa Alam, but were moved at the last minute by Thomas Cook due to outbreak of Legionaires at it's sister hotel. When we arrived at the Akassia, our flight had been delayed so we arrived about 8.45pm, it was very daunting, the hotel is huge. No time for cocktails on arrival unlike some,... more

Had a wonderful time at this resort in May this year; so much so, we are going again - 1st October. Only one drawback, we fly with Monarch Airways. We originally intended to return to The Grand Makadi Resort in Makadi Bay, Hurgarda, (we were there May 2007), but they were fully booked so Akassia was plan 'b'. I can... more
