Nubian Island

in Sharm El Sheikh , Egypt - Red Sea T rating: 4 plus

 
  • Introductory scuba diving
  • Beachfront location
  • Kids' splash pool
A sandy beach, pretty gardens and two pools – this village-style hotel is spot on for both families and couples.
This hotel is designed like a Nubian village. Think pink and terracotta buildings linked by winding pathways, wooden bridges and cacti gardens. The gardens merge into a beach, which slopes into the Red Sea in Nabq Bay. The waters are shallow for a long way out, so you can wade in to watch fish swim around the reef. And if you want to go swimming or snorkelling, there’s a long jetty jutting out to the deeper waters.

Elsewhere, the pool scene is nicely thought out. There are two large numbers, each with a different vibe. Head to the one near the lobby to laze the day away in peace and quiet. At the second, meanwhile, there’s a livelier feel with a swim-up bar and a family-friendly vibe. That said, both pools come with their own children’s sections, so you can still choose between quiet and upbeat if you have kids in tow.

In terms of accommodation, rooms are tastefully decorated with cream walls, light-wood furniture and plum-and-cream soft-furnishings. Satellite TVs and mini-fridges are supplied as standard, and each room connects to a terrace or balcony. If space is really important, meanwhile, you can plump for one of the bungalows spread around the grounds.

The dining scene deserves a mention, too. As well as a buffet eatery, you’ve got a gourmet fish restaurant, an Italian trattoria and a pub-style bar.

Your guide to Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt - Red Sea

"Top diving, great nightlife and near-endless sunshine. Sharm El Sheikh hits the mark for scuba fans, beach lovers and party-goers.”

Perched on the southernmost tip of Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula, Sharm El Sheikh is drenched in hot, hot sunshine – we’re talking average temperatures of 37 degrees in July and August. Even the winter months tend to stay warm and dry, with rain a rarity. It’s no wonder it’s become the place to holiday in recent years.

Everything Sharm has to offer comes down to its location. Once a sleepy fishing village, it now spreads between Nabq Bay in the north, down through the tourist heart of Naama Bay, to Maya Bay in the south, ticking off Dahab in the process. Wherever you are, look one way and you’ll see the rocky landscapes of the Sinai Desert. Look the other, and you’ll clock what most people come here for – the Red Sea. With incredible coral reefs, shipwrecks and marine life all basking in its warm waters, this is one of the world’s blockbuster scuba spots.

And that’s not all. There are still the luxury hotels, fabulous shopping malls and endless supply of restaurants to think about. Not to mention the camel treks and desert excursions. All topped with a large helping of electrifying nightlife.
