Pickalbatros Royal Grand Resort Sharm El Sheikh

This hotel is the best hotel ever. All the staff were so friendly and lovely. The hotel was so clean and organized from all aspects. And what made it so fun and perfect was the animation team, they were great and made it so fun. Especially Ipoo, he was the most friendly guy in the crew and made us enjoy our trip as he was making us laugh and participate in all the activities.

Our experience at this resort was absolutely amazing! Everything was beautiful, comfortable, and well-organized, and the atmosphere was perfect from the moment we arrived. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help. The resort itself is beautiful, relaxing, and full of positive energy, making it the perfect place to enjoy and unwind. A special mention to the amazing animation team, especially Eboooo, who was such a sweet, funny, and wonderful person. His energy, smile, and positive attitude made our stay even more special. Honestly, the whole experience was unforgettable, and we would definitely come back again! ❤️✨

Amazing hotel! The entertainment was great, and special thanks to Ipoo from the animation team for making our stay even more enjoyable 💝

My husband and I stayed for our fourth visit 2-16 July. We hadn’t been for a couple of years and was pleasantly surprised by the changes. As well as a Beach bar, they now have a new beach club that serves food at lunchtime and there is also a DJ that plays mello Ibizia vibe music so nice to sit there at lunchtime having a drink and looking out to the sea. The beach bar is also nice to chill in the shade. It is a shame that they only have high chairs. It might be more popular in the day if the seating was more comfortable (like the beach club seating). The animation team are great especially Mando and Pepsi. Weekly beach, pool and foam parties were great and regular day and night activities. For the younger travellers they also arrange trips to the local nightclubs. Evening food is top notch. The Cullina offers à la carte Mexican or seafood. Many types of tagine cooked meats in the Mediterranean along with lots of Mango for dessert (also lots of cake choices). Soprano (main restaurant) has lots of choice too. Bravo to all the chefs and staff in the restaurants. Special thanks to chef Goma for the special requests. Thanks to Andy for keeping us supplied with (English) tea and coffee and a smile at breakfast time. All the bar staff and waiters were great looking after us. We were never left thirsty. Daytime pool bar drinks served by Emad, Nader and Mahmoud. Mediterranean’s happy Omar and of course the super stars in the Lobby bar - Ahmed, Mohammed and Eisham always looking after us and everyone else even during the busy football matches. Not least Khalid who was on the graveyard shift (appreciated for the late night/early morning football matches). We stayed in room 1136 which was convenient as was right next to the main pool. This room is a little dated but has everything you need. I understand refurbishment is ongoing throughout so ask for one of the new rooms near reception if you prefer modern. Thanks to Ahmed for keeping our room so clean and the amusing towel art. Not least thank you to Sobhy, Roma and all the lifeguard team (Mohammed and Abdeldiez “Zeus” at the main pool) for your help, humour and professionalism. Special thanks to Roma and Samy for helping us get down the jetty. It only took 4 visits to finally experience the delights of snorkelling off the jetty. Thank you to the whole hotel. We look forward to returning again. Outside the hotel: There are some shops up the road in Il Marcato including a MacDonalds for the kids. There is a great little shop that sells snacks including nuts and crisps at excellent prices. There is also a Syrian restaurant that is popular with locals. I would recommend avoiding the supermarket opposite (you go up a few steps to enter) if you are after some tobacco as it is all fake (as we found out when we got back to then UK).

The architecture of the buildings is simply fascinating: stylish, harmonious, the atmosphere of an oriental resort is immediately felt. Animation at altitude — Nastya, Ksyusha and Yamal make your vacation really fun: the activities are interesting during the day, and the program is excellent in the evening. You definitely don't have to be bored! I would also like to mention the cleaning in the rooms — it is always clean, towels are changed regularly, the maids are very diligent. In general, it is a great option for a holiday, I would love to come back here again! 😊
