Ra's Gharib Vacation Packages

Hello, The hotel was decent, but definitely not a 9/10 as suggested by the recent Google and Hotels.com ratings. If you want to swim in the sea, it’s quite difficult. You can walk hundreds of meters without the water going above knee level, and then suddenly it becomes very deep with waves. On top of that, it was extremely windy—we couldn’t even sit on the balcony facing the beach, despite the amazing view, which was actually the best part of our holiday. The food quality and variety were around 6/10 or 7/10 at best. The salad greens were not cleaned properly and often had dust and dirt on them. The alcoholic drink selection was very poor, and they were serving drinks in old blue acrylic cups at the pool and beach bars, which didn’t feel hygienic. There was only one beer brand available (an Egyptian brand, which was actually a decent lager), and they didn’t seem to have bartenders, so the cocktail menu was very limited and the quality was poor. The cleanliness of the beach, room, pool, and common areas was fine. There were some shops and markets on the property, but the sellers felt dishonest and overpriced. The security staff at the main gate asked for room numbers every time we entered or left the hotel, whether by car or on foot. Supposedly this was for record-keeping, but it felt uncomfortable and insecure to have hotel staff know exactly when we were or weren’t in the room. That should remain private. Overall, I would rate the hotel around 6/10 or 7/10 at most.

We thoroughly enjoyed our recent vacation. The resort boasts impeccably clean rooms and swimming pools, exceptional service from friendly staff, and an extensive variety of delicious food. We highly recommend Sultan Gardens Resort and would happily stay there again."

I had coordinated for a transport from the airport but was told once I arrived that they could not accommodate us. We had to get a taxi that dropped us over half a mile from the hotel. My wife was not happy as we had to walk down a dark street with all of our luggage. The next day my daughter had come to visit and she was going to change in our room to go on a snorkeling trip. The front desk made a big deal about not allowing guests even though I offered to pay extra. The manager finally agreed to allow her to come to the room but made it clear that she couldn't eat or drink anything. I wouldn't stay here again as there are plenty of other options in the areal.

Beautiful big clean rooms with amazing pool view. Room 1122 perfect location. So many lovely bars and restaurant with good quality food and drinks above your usual all inclusive. Loved them all other than found mo’s to be a bit limited for choice compared to the choice and quality in the others. Lovely beach. Nice reef although as shallow a little murky at times. But can still see loads of amazing fish. Amazing waterpark for the kids. Friendly helpful staff in reception bar and Ahmed by the pool. A stones throw from farsha can see it a few doors up from the bar in the hotel overlooking the beach and a short 10 mins walk to it. Stunning looking hotel would recommend.

Here’s a polished review you can use: The hotel was fantastic! Everything was spotless and extremely well maintained. The staff were amazing, friendly, and always ready to help. In fact, they often approached guests to ask if anything was needed before you even had to ask. The pools were very clean and enjoyable, which made the stay even more relaxing. The only downside was the buffet food. The variety was somewhat limited, and the taste was not the best compared to other hotels I’ve visited. However, this was a minor issue compared to all the positives. Overall, I truly enjoyed my stay and had a great experience. I would definitely recommend this hotel and would be happy to return in the future.

Nice resort, decent beach, food on offer has a wide selection. Staff were generally not too helpful, polite, or friendly. Perhaps it's the English language issue, but the men on reception made us feel like we were bothering them if we had a question.
