Hotel with a minimum distance to the sea!
I really need advice, because. in the reviews, the emphasis is on service, rooms, etc. The resort is not important, the main thing is not more than 1 hour from the airport. The most important thing is the REAL proximity of the sea. I’m going to Egypt for the first time and I really don’t want to get to the hotel on line 1, where it’s 5 minutes to the sea by bus and 800 meters along the pontoon. Are my “dreams” real? I'm not going to hang out alone and not a sex tour. Need relaxation. Budget up to $ 2000 for a week.

I will say this: holidays in Egypt are quite specific.
Firstly, if you take a hotel in Sharm or Hurghada, then you will drive 20 minutes to the hotel
(maximum 30, if you bring 59 passengers to other hotels along the way). Everything is very close there in Sharm, for example, the coastline of the tourism sector is about 30 km in total.
You need to drive from an hour or more to regions such as Taba or Makadi Bay...
In Egypt, you can take any hotel on the first line, here you have the proximity of the sea.
There is just such a moment that the territories of hotels in Egypt are usually large, and it turns out that if they settle at the very end of the hotel (as they often do with the Slavic people), then you will walk 5-10 minutes to the sea around the hotel. This issue is resolved 10- 20 dollars at the reception. If you're lucky, they will settle closer to the sea. But no one guarantees this.
Charm:
Regarding the pontoon, if you want the sea, do not take a hotel in Nabq Bay or Ras Nasrani, there are shallow, waves and undercurrent. That's where the long pontoons are.
At the LTI Grand Azur 5 * hotel, it is about 900 meters!
Take a closer look at the hotels in Sharks Bay or in Hadaba (Old Town area) - everything is fine with the sea, short pontoons and a sea with corals.

Hurghada:
If you take Hurghada, then you should not take a hotel in the center, there are many boats and mostly small beaches near city hotels.
I advise you to look something in the direction leading to the new Sal El Hasheesh area. There are good beaches and a relaxing holiday.
Regarding the budget, you did not indicate the dates, and this is very important, the cost changes every day.
My advice is to come to the agency and you will find the right option in this price category.
It is always better to look at the options right away in your budget than to pick up hotels for yourself, and then get upset that the price is not suitable ...
To get started, take a look at Sharm Grand Rotana 5 * (hotel without all inclusive), Baron Resort 5 *, Maritim Jolie Ville Golf & Resort 5 *, Iberotel Grand Sharm 5 *, Savoy 5 *, Sheraton Resort 5 *, The Grand Hotel Sharm 5 *, Concorde El Salam Front 5*
This is so, for a guideline of the level that you can count on in your budget.
In Hurghada Marriot Hurghada 5*( hotel without all inclusive), Intercontinental Hurghada 5*

Maria25 thanks for the answers! I plan to leave May 11-15. I will fit in this amount, what do you think?

Look at SunRise Garden Beach and SunRise Mamlouk in Hurghada - from the sea, even the most distant buildings are 3-4 minutes of a very walking pace))), and the beach with a gentle entrance is sandy, the service is at the level. Have a nice holiday!

Elena9000, I don't think I'm sure you'll invest. Those hotels that I suggested are on average 1300-1600 per person with a Single room (single)
I join sun-TaTO-the hotels are not bad, but there is one BUT-there is just to go to the sea .... in front of the hotels there is an artificial lagoon (I myself rested there), and to the open sea along the shore for about 7 minutes to go walking ... and minus the fact that there are no sunbeds by the sea, they bought and sawed back ...

We were in Egypt 2 times, Sharm and Marsa Alam (refers to the district of Hurghada) In Sharm, we got to the hotel for 20 minutes, we drove to Marsa Alam from Hurghada for 1.5 hours. Both hotels are on the 1st coast. Hauza rested in Sharm We liked the Beach4 + hotel, it’s quiet, calm and the food is pretty good, the sea is very cool, there are a lot of fish and you can enter the sea from the shore or from the pontoon (150 meters). We didn’t see so many fish in Marsa Alam, although we also liked the Acassia resort hotel.

Hilton Waterfols 5 * in Sharm - 1 line, the beach and the territory are excellent, worthy rest!

Excuse me, Hilton waterfalls.
аватар shelep2008
Firework ! I will be brief. Based on what you want, I recommend the Hilton in Taba. From the airport 40 km., The hotel is directly at the "reservoir", five stars and a complete relax. There are no pontoons, entry is free, the rooms are good, Israel is behind the fence. I recommend, rested from everyone ... Look in the reviews about the hotel, it is described in more detail. Good luck !

Panorama bungalow Resort - located right on the water, the fish will swim under the transparent bottom of your room)))
And so - all the first line hotels in Egypt are very close to the sea. The exceptions are complexes (for example, Golden Five city, Reemyvera), where distant hotels are officially located on the first line, but in reality - on the second line.
Better take Hurghada or Nayama Bay in Sharm so you don't have to walk on the pier or pantone.

shelep2008 What are you??? Which Hilton in Taba???
IN NO CASE!!!
I saw it in an ad! hotel built in 1984, all old, more than half of the rooms without balconies, near the border with Israel, the beach is rocky and small!!!! where??? here a person is set up for VIP hotels, and you give him a Hilton in Taba ... nonsense ...

I returned on April 2 from Sharm, the crowne plaza hotel, we drove from the airport for 15 minutes, the sea is beautiful, there is a diving center in our hotel, living creatures are just teeming, you swim like in an aquarium. We had sea view rooms, right by the sea, a patio with an indoor pool, beauty! But the "Russian village" with standard rooms was at the entrance of the hotel, spanking to the sea through the entire hotel. Two pontoons - one 50 meters of plastic, the other 5 meters, capital, they dived from it. we swam at the little one, we liked it more. Good luck!

At the expense of Taba - I also don’t like her and don’t recommend her! Now it is not calm in Palestine and Israel, besides, it’s not 40 minutes, but 3.5 hours from Sharm, because. there are almost no international charters to Taba airport now.

Thanks a lot for the advice. I tend to Baron, but there was another question. There appear to be two of them. Baron Palms Resort and Baron Sharm El Sheik Deluxe. Mariya25 advised Baron, but which one?
аватар Mariya25
I advised the Baron Resort, it is on the first line. But I like Palms more, it is 300 meters from the sea. Newer, fresher ... but the Resort is a good hotel!

If you speak German or English (a little), pay attention to Siva Grand Beach (Hurgada). Full relax. Were 20.03 - 1.04.2009. There are no drunk compatriots. Of the 750 rooms, there were 5 families from Russia. This is a purely "European" hotel. The hotel and the beach are closed. Security at the entrance. The sea is just great. The beach is sandy. The entrance is sandy. The water is purest. Massages are available near the beach. The food is good. Lots of restaurants and cafes. The service is super. In the very center of Hurghada. In the evening you can safely walk. Very civil. Animation is missing. But if you hang out, then it's not there. Works with the hotel only Tez Tour. For two for 12 days they paid $ 1,700. Read reviews.

ELENA9000! You are correct, you have a decent budget. Take a really cool hotel. You are a little confused with the Barons: the deluxe Baron Resort, the PREMIUM ALL INCLUSIVE service concept. It is not just good, it is the best from Maria's list. sun loungers by the pool, like sprats in a jar. Therefore, people from Palms hang around the pools of the Resort. You can go there for a change. But I don’t think you want to. the girls play the piano, sit on the sofa, and relaxation is ready. You can write about the pros for a long time, the main thing is there are no cons. The reviews are true in Tour. hotels of the world. This speaks volumes. I was there three times, I didn’t see a single drunk, but decently drunk. But in Hurghada in 2006
a new hotel German Steigenberger al Dau Beach 5 * also opened at a very high level, you can read about it. Last year I was there in May, I liked it very much. .more expensive, but it's worth it. It will not be possible to agree on arrival.
