Address: Blue Hole Road (north), EG
Price range: EGP 3262+

A 31-room beachfront hotel about 2 km north of the Lighthouse on the Blue Hole road, with the mountains behind it and its own small beach and reef in front. The Reef 2000 dive centre is on the property, so shore dives start from the beach. There is a pool, breakfast is included, and yoga classes and bike rental are offered. Rooms differ (some have balconies, A/C and fridges), so ask when you book. It is quieter than the promenade, but you will need a taxi to reach the town centre at night. Booking.com guests score it 9.0/10 (817 reviews, via Kayak).
