Location

The beautiful resort is located on the coast of the Red Sea in southern Egypt, directly on a 300 m long sandy beach. The hotel complex is situated directly in front of the well-known Elphistone Reef and is ideal for divers and snorkelers. The quiet surroundings offer a variety of great spots that provide perfect conditions for experiencing Egypt's colorful and diverse underwater world. A long bathing jetty leads from the beach behind the reef, offering easy access to the open sea. The town of Marsa Alam is about 25 km away and offers numerous dining and shopping opportunities.
