Sunny Days Mirette Family Resort

“Great resort”

Absolutely brilliant, I couldn’t fault the staff at all! The rooms are dated but clean… infact our entire stay all we saw were the staff cleaning.

Absolutely brilliant, I couldn’t fault the staff at all! The rooms are dated but clean… infact our entire stay all we saw were the staff cleaning. We had an issue with our air con, they were up in 10 minutes and fixed the issue. We used all 3 hotels and it was just amazing! We did an excursion to Orange bay which we highly recommend! Admittedly we our sceptical about food, we ate very little in the hotel but what we did eat was lovely. We were warned by staff not to eat the fish in the hotel. We ate at the Marina! Great place to visit for food and drinks. Sava cafe next door to the hotel was also great for coffees and steak. We visited as 3 women alone, we weren’t pestered at all in the hotel but outside we were! It’s a great resort in all. Ask for recommendations from staff, we felt they were honest and gave great advice. We are coming back next year! Thankyou to Ahmed (Sunny D) on the animation team. The magician life guard you were a great source of entertainment. The front desk staff at Mirette, they couldn’t do enough! We look forward to returning.

“Honest review”

Honest review It’s a standard 3 star hotel people shouldn’t expect 5 star with a 3 star hotel price. I was very confused when arriving as I thought we were staying at the Palma hotel.

Honest review It’s a standard 3 star hotel people shouldn’t expect 5 star with a 3 star hotel price. I was very confused when arriving as I thought we were staying at the Palma hotel. I didn’t realise that the resorts consist of 3 hotels and you had use of all of them. The mirette didn’t have much going on and we used Palma for most things. It is located on a busy road so please take care when crossing especially if you have children and they don’t really seem to stop. On arrival the receptionist was very slow and kept serving other guest whilst checking us in so it took a bit longer than it should have. I also found their English to be pretty poor and I know they didn’t really understand what I was saying. They also didn’t give us any information on where things were we found this out through the hospitality staff. Rooms are standard they could do with a really good dusting as they were very dusty and could do with a deep clean like washing the curtains and the nets. The room was not secure as the window was broken so anyone could have walked in at anytime and also the balcony doors didn’t lock but we never had any problems with someone entering our room. My nieces fridge definitely needed upgrading. The rooms were cleaned everyday with fresh towel and the cleaners seemed very pleasant The hospitality stuff worked very hard and were grateful for anything that we left as a tip. They really went out of their way to serve you. The food wasn’t awful but pretty much the same most days but we could always find something to eat. We all developed upset stomachs and still don’t know what caused it but when I went to the pharmacy they advised us it completely normall for English people to get upset stomach’s in Egypt. This put a bit of a downer on the holiday as we had lots of trips booked and constantly had stomach aches. I booked all of our trips through get my guide as it was easy and the price is so much cheaper than what any of the hotel staff can offer you. Please do not book with the holiday rep as you will pay a lot more. The holiday rep will text you the same day you arrive wanting to meet with you in the morning and advise you not to book with anyone else. They also give you a nice tip of not to drink the water.This will make you think they are looking out for your best interests but really they just want you too book the trips for high prices. Please look online first. We never used the hotel WiFi or paid for any internet at the hotel as you can purchase SIM cards from the airport for a good price. We got 110GB for 13 euros the hotel will charge you a lot more. The beaches and pools are well kept and the kids really enjoyed the aqua park. The life guards on the beach will help you find seats and are very helpful. You will get people coming up to you trying to sell you trips , hair braids and massages but they are not pushy if you don’t want to purchase anything from them. We booked the fish restaurant and paid £60 for 6 people with drink included and this was absolutely amazing I would definitely recommend it. You get the use of 2 restaurants for free in the hotel. We booked the four corners restaurant and our chicken wasn’t cooked properly. It wasn’t a big problem though as we wasn’t paying for it. There is a snack bar which you can purchase burgers and chips for a reasonable price but be prepared to wait. We waited 45mins for 3 portions of chips. I was really dreading coming to this hotel after seeing a lot of the reviews but it definitely wasn’t as bad as some people were making it out to be and it definitely didn’t ruin my holiday it just needs a little TLC and just remember you get what you pay for. If you’re just looking to use the room as a base it will be fine for you but if you do want something lavish then book a 5*
