This holiday was our first time to Rixos and Sharm El Sheikh. The hotel is MASSIVE. There are lots of pools and sunbathing areas and there is always somewhere to lie. The pool guys will find you a bed and a brolly if you need one. We split our time between the ‘red’ pool and the ‘blue’ pool. The red pool is very busy and quite noisy. The blue pool is a little bit more relaxed. The red pool is very deep so presented a challenge if you wanted to take a drink back to your sunbed from the pool bar! The buffet restaurant was very hit and miss but I am quite a fussy eater. The food was plentiful although my partner experienced some chicken that was cold. The à la carte restaurants provided some change from the buffet. The Turkish was our favourite. We thought that The Mangal restaurant was over rated but seemed the most difficult to book. Our room was a double deluxe room in block 4 and was huge! We had a bit of a hiccup on the first day and had to change rooms. It was dealt with very well. It was always cleaned well. The grounds are very clean and well maintained. We never went to the beach so cannot comment. The buggy drivers are amazing and very helpful. There are some staff members that stood out but unsure of their names. They are so friendly and helpful. There are a few cons. The constant pressure selling of trips, excursions, massages etc on the first day. It’s exhausting. We believe that we were scammed and paid a lot of money for a boat trip then heard a couple get the same trip for a lot less. Be very aware. The constant requests for Google reviews is exhausting too. If I like something I will review but being pressured by the cleaner for a review whilst wrapped in a bath towel is NOT a vibe. The rudeness and lack of respect of some of our international neighbours. Being shouted at in Russian in the fitness pool by a very rude woman is not something I would allow to happen in my own country so do not appreciate it in Egypt. The staff do not deserve to be treated how they are by this cohort of guests. The holiday offered what we needed with lots of R n R. Not sure if we would return but only because we don’t tend to go to any hotels more than once.

I cannot explain how good our trip has been, we have been welcomed and treated so well throughout the whole holiday and we could not have asked for it better. The facilities are very up to date and kept very clean, the staff friendliness is at another level and every single person makes you feel at home. I would definitely recommend to anyone! The entertainment team are so friendly and host different fun events throughout the day to keep you active and busy. I would have to say a special thank you to Anastasia and Anton they are both amazing people and helped our experience even more.

We’ve had such a lovely holiday, all staff are so kind and welcoming always there to help, had the best holiday and don’t want to leave, will definitely be coming back!!
