Sharm El Sheikh Holidays

Sharm el Sheikh is a perfect destination for a winter sun holiday and is one of the fastest growing holiday resorts. From humble beginnings the resort has quickly established itself as a top international destination for holidaymakers.

Many international hotel chains such as Hilton and Sheraton have hotels here and properties range from basic 2* to luxury 5* with loads of facilities. Most hotels now offer all inclusive, however there are hotels that give you the choice of Bed & Breakfast which will enable you to visit the mainy restaurants in the popular Naama Bay or Sharks Bay areas. There is something to suit all tastes and budgets and many hotels in Sharm have private beaches or their own areas of the beach. The beaches in Sharm el Sheikh offer golden sands and crystal clear waters enabling you to swim, snorkel or dive in the beautiful Red Sea.

In recent years many Sharm hotels have been looking to appeal a lot more to families and have added entertainment in the form of kids clubs, animation team as well as waterslides and aqua parks. They good year round temperature means that many of the aqua park hotels operate the slides year round so are a great choice for a family holiday in Sharm.

The popular area of Naama Bay has lots of lively bars and restaurants if you fancy a change of scene from your hotel. During the day there are plenty of shops and craft stalls to visit for a souvenir or gift.
