I had an amazing stay at Dreams Beach Resort. The rooms were comfortable, clean, and had beautiful views. The highlight of my trip was the animation team, who kept everyone entertained with fun activities and shows throughout the day. A special shout-out to the animation Team especially Vitalii – his energy and charisma made the experience even more enjoyable. Whether leading games or performing in shows, Vitale’s enthusiasm brought so much joy to our stay. Highly recommend this resort for a fun and memorable vacation!

“I recommend others to visit this hotel. Responsive staff. Delicious food. Various recreation areas.”

A very beautiful place to which I want to return. Vitalik, a super young man in the entertainment area, where he could amuse anyone with his smile. A wonderful beach with snorkeling opportunities. Draudzīga vieta ģimenem ar bērniem un draugiem. Paldies! On the way back .

“Vitalii who represents Russia is crazy in a good way! ❤💋💋”

Written whilst I’m still staying at the Dreams Beach resort, Sharm el Sheikh. It should perhaps be called Dreams Cliff resort as there is no beach, rather some cliffside areas decked out with parasols and beds. This is fine if you want to lay about with a view of the sea, but not so good if you want to paddle or just fancy a quick dip. There are three platforms at the edge of the coral so snorkelling is good, but when we were there, the wind was so strong that often the red flag was flying and even when it was yellow flag it did feel quite precarious, as if you were going to be dashed on the rocks at any moment. There was one swimming pool which was surprisingly cold in October but presumably means the water is being filtered constantly. It’s much colder than the sea. In October (the week before the main schools in the UK break up) the resort is relatively quiet with enough sunbeds for everyone that wants them whether by the sea or by the pool. There are very few British people here, I’ve noticed maybe two voices in the whole time I’m here, which could be seen as a good thing depending on your viewpoint. Unfortunately it does mean that English isn’t particularly well spoken amongst the staff which can make getting anything out of the ordinary a little tricky. We found it impossible to get an extra pillow for our room, and at one point when our cleaner took a dirty towel and it wasn’t replaced for 48 hours, it took 3 phone calls to reception with promises to replace it, before my exasperated husband finally refused to leave reception until they gave him one to bring back to the room with him! The waiters and bar staff are eager please and working hard in order to obtain a decent tip, however this could be viewed as hassling for when I went to the bar to get myself a drink they refused to give it to me instead insisting that I returned to my sunbed where they would bring it to me. Personally this was irritating as I was thirsty there and then. All inclusive drinks are pretty awful, it has to be said, the vodka has a vanilla flavour to it and tasted bad mixed with Coke, the cocktails that I tried were not good. In the end I settled on just drinking gin mixed with the ubiquitous orange drink that you find everywhere in Egypt. The beer was okay but they didn’t know how to make a shandy. It is true that alcoholic drinks are only served between 1 pm and 11 pm, which wasn’t a problem for us and ensured that people weren’t horribly drunk in the resort. In the first couple of days we were constantly hassled to buy massages which was a shame as I had been intending to have one but wanted to see the options and consider without the hard sell. In the end my partner and I decided we would have a pedicure each and was told that this would be done at the salon rather than the spa. This is an experience to avoid at all costs. When we arrived at the salon (tucked behind an empty shop currently being renovated) the beautician was sat outside having a cigarette and we were told to wait inside the salon. It looked grubby, there were leather sofas with rips in them and rubbish and personal items strewn around the salon. Having been assured by the salesman that sold us the pedicures that my husband‘s feet (hard and gnarly) would be treated differently to mine (predominantly dry) the girl then proceeded to do both the pedicure’s exactly the same, causing holes where her razor caught the edges of cracks in my heels and ripped them open. While my husband was happy with his pedicure, I limped painfully around the resort for the next few days bleeding into my flip-flops… The meals tend to be the usual all inclusive fair you get Egypt there was an abundance of vegetable, tomato dishes, some potatoes, rice, and a pasta station, we only saw chips served at lunchtime. The desserts were the usual sweet cakes with vivid colour icing. There were also some fruits that I didn’t recognise and didn’t taste particularly nice, disappointingly there were no fresh bananas which we have come to look forward to on our trips to Egypt previously. Breakfast was the best meal of the day - you could queue to get fresh omelettes or fried eggs and there was an assortment of other meat and vegetable items to go alongside. There was no rice pudding, but there were doughnuts and waffles being freshly made if you’re prepared to queue. Orange juice at 80 Egyptian pounds (£1.30) was available, but there was a lack of choice when it came to tea with none of the usual herbal tea, peppermint or cinnamon that I’ve seen in other resorts. I never saw ice cream being served at all anywhere in the resort. To summarise, it is not a five star hotel by UK standards, but it has amenities and if you’re budget conscious, and just after some winter sun, it’s perfectly acceptable (just avoid the salon!).
