Rixos Sharm El Sheikh

This was our fourth stay here. They continue to renew/expand facilities. Since we were last here they have rebuilt and expanded the beach bar (very nice), they have also relocated the Turkish restaurant and have just about finished a new Greek restaurant. Unfortunately we felt that the service had deteriorated particularly in the Palm restaurant. The food offering in the Palm restaurant we also thought was not as good as before. The theme nights are a joke, if you are lucky you can find two dishes relating to the theme among the 530 dishes presented. This meant we used the themed restaurants more this time, the Fish, Turkish, Asian and Indian were all good. We also enjoyed the Turkish breakfast. We continue to like being in Block 3. The rooms are spacious and away from the entertainment noise.

Amazing experience and massages from Jo & Demi! Thank you 🙏

Excellent throughout , great service, good food, staff very friendly

This is a fantastic hotel and the staff are all excellent and really make this hotel. Our room was large and very clean. Housekeeping was very well done each day if required. If you forget to put the sign on the door, they will knock to check if you need anything for the minibar, towels etc. They are very attentive. The food choice is something else. We used the buffet for breakfast and lunch and the a la carts for dinner. No matter where you go, there was plenty of staff who would bend over backwards to help. I walk with a cane and got told more than once to sit down and they would bring whatever I needed over to me 🥰. The shuttle bus service that runs round the resort was an absolute life saver for me. It truly made such a difference to my holiday. I wish I had the names of everyone but honestly, every single interaction we had was great, from the waiters remembering our drinks order to the bus driver who remembered that we always went down for dinner at 6.15pm and would come by our block to pick us up, all of them were great and happy to help. While this wasnt our cheapest holiday, we still feel it offered excellent value for money due to all of the little things that added real value to the experience, like the bus service round the grounds, I ordered a soup that I didn't realise was spicy so I couldnt eat it. The waiter immediately offered to change it and gave suggestions that would be suitable for me with no issues at all. We were in block 3 and didn't hear any noise from outside. Very peaceful indeed. So to sum up, this hotel is modern, beautiful in decoration with extremely well kept grounds and the staff seem to take it personally if a guest dares to try and do something themselves 🤩. They really do an amazing job 🙏. I would absolutely recommend this hotel and if we ever come back to Egypt, this will definitely be where we would stay 5☆☆☆☆☆

We have just returned from an incredible stay at Rixos Sharm El Sheikh and can honestly say it exceeded our expectations in so many ways. Our flight arrived in the middle of the night, but despite the late hour we received a genuinely warm welcome. The check-in process was quick and efficient, and within a short time we were settled into a fantastic room. The rooms are exceptionally spacious, and many enjoy beautiful views over the pools, gardens or sea. The minibar was replenished every day and always well stocked with soft drinks, beer and snacks. Although we visited towards the end of October, the air conditioning was still very welcome and worked perfectly. One of the first things that struck us was how immaculate the hotel grounds are. The complex is extensive, yet everything is beautifully maintained. The gardening and maintenance teams work tirelessly and are constantly keeping the resort looking its best. It is probably the hardest-working maintenance team I have seen at any hotel. A special mention has to go to the entertainment team. They create a great atmosphere without ever being pushy or intrusive. Whether you want to join in or simply relax, they strike exactly the right balance. The evening stage shows were absolutely spectacular. The production quality, costumes and performances were of a standard that would not look out of place in many theatres across the UK. There are numerous pools across the resort, so we rarely had any difficulty finding sun loungers, regardless of the time of day. The beach could sometimes be a little busier, but the staff were always eager to help and regularly found solutions by rearranging beds or creating additional space where possible. One tip for future visitors is to make use of the red flag available from the towel stations. There are various excursion sellers offering snorkelling, desert trips and other activities around the resort, but displaying the red flag is a polite and effective way of letting people know you would prefer not to be approached. The food was another highlight. The main Palm Restaurant offers a huge choice, but what really sets the resort apart is the range of à la carte restaurants. We particularly enjoyed having options such as Japanese, Asian, Brazilian and Indian cuisine, which provided great variety throughout our stay. The on-site shops are also worth mentioning. We found the quality of many items to be noticeably better than those available in shops outside the resort. If you're interested in watches, bags or fragrances, it's definitely worth having a look before heading elsewhere. Overall, this was a truly special holiday. Between the outstanding service, beautiful grounds, excellent food, impressive entertainment and the friendliness of the staff, it is easy to see why so many guests return year after year. We certainly hope to be among them and are already looking forward to coming back next year.
