Not a very good choice for the period of rest. The pools will still be icy, the sea will be cold (who wouldn’t say anything about windless bays and that the water does not fall below 22 (it feels like 18 at best), and so on, and even if the hotel has heated pools, this is not all pools, and some one, poppy two and the whole hotel will be warming up there.I know what I'm talking about, because we tried different options and chose the best time for rest from the end of April-May, the pools will be already normal, the sea is much warmer, the winds are going down Most hotels turn off the fire by the end of February, and it is not always there, but it can be announced.So here you need to be very careful when choosing a hotel, especially when traveling with small children.

I’ll add that I was looking at the hotel (usually at this time I look after Egypt for May holidays for the family) and was surprised by the prices ..... Tolley, this temporary insanity happened to Egypt, or from joy that the Russians were let in, but I have never seen such a price tag I won't go there for that price. So here I recommend while watching and waiting for development. Maybe the lousiest hotels at the price of a good Turkey, but at the same time, Turkey will be many times better in all respects, well, except for the sea with corals there. Something like this.

I will add that I talked about the prices for Egypt for the recommended period - the end of April-May, Turkey, of course, should be considered from the end of May-June, because there the sea is warmer during this period and becomes more or less swimmable or choose a hotel where there are heated pools (at least milking children, and they are small for you) adults will already have norms in the sea.

"not too expensive" - need a budget
"fierce - an ear of birch" - may be unsuccessful in terms of weather comfort for some tourists, but for many other tourists it is normal and many families with children relax in all popular resorts in Egypt, and even hotels in the most windy bays are not empty.
Jungle Aqua Park all the pools in the water park are heated, the pools of the Jaz hotels in Coraya Bay are also heated, their Aqua Coraya Park is also heated

Vika284 agrees, Egypt is not empty in any month and tourists are always there. But my children also began to relax with us as infants, and I, as a mother, understand that for kids, most likely an inexpensive hotel in Egypt in late February or early March may absolutely not be suitable for various reasons. And if the author’s vacation is not 3-4 times a year, when you can experiment with the hotel, weather, etc., then it’s better to immediately state all the possible points, and then let them decide for themselves what is their priority and what they generally want from the rest .. .

once brought us in February to the Royal Grand. it didn’t seem to be cold, and the hotel was not on the wind rose - but well, its nafik! we were at sea once a week and the whole hotel "sat" in our pool (we lived near the nursery).
in general, I didn't like it. decided for themselves that February-March is not it)))

moy_contakt I saw other mothers with children in Sharm in winter, my friends with children are currently vacationing in Mars, and I was not comfortable in Mars even in May. Mothers are different and every single mother knows exactly how comfortable she and her child will be, and all mothers and ordinary tourists have different feelings of comfort.
When they write "the end of February - the beginning of March ... not very expensive " - then 90% of this family does not rest 3-4 times a year, approximately clear budget
April and early May in Egypt is just one of the best periods, already quite warm and the sea temperature +24 and above. It is in Turkey that the air may be warm, but there are questions about the sea temperature. Therefore, the price of tours to Egypt compared to February will be higher.

Yes, everything is clear that there is not much money and you want to relax better, that's why I wrote my opinion with a postscript, read, and decide what and how for yourself. Moreover, there are many such topics here, there is something to read and draw your own conclusions.

about Royal Grand Sharm , read a comment to reviews about this hotel which was written on March 6, 2020, i.е. tourists rested in late February and early March
"Hello, just returned from the Royal Grand Sharm hotel. We were at the hotel for the third time and the first time with a one-year-old daughter. The hotel is beautiful. It became even better than it was. When I flew, I was worried about what I would feed my daughter, but this problem was not at all! We arrived at 6 in the morning, and at 10 in the morning we were settled in a nice, comfortable, perfectly clean room. The administrator from the reception, Mustafa, called to clarify whether everything suits us. They brought a crib to the room. Also, as a bonus, we received a plate of fruit and mini-bar with soft drinks. In the restaurant, the waiter Hasan helped with everything. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The little daughter is delighted with the animation. The beach is equipped for small children. In a word, the Royal Grand Sharm is a wonderful hotel for a family holiday. there...."

YaSlavnaYa so this mother and child also wrote about personal feelings
"personal feeling" therefore, the personal feelings and comfort of the sea and air temperature of each individual person is different, all mothers are different and each decides how comfortable her child will be
Family with a small child in February
"We rested with a one-year-old child in February. The weather was excellent +28, the sea is refreshing, but you can still swim safely."
Another family February
"Our vacation began with the transfer of the flight to an earlier one and we arrived at the hotel at 9 am, they didn’t even give us a room for an additional fee, they said there were no rooms with a child (4 months) ... The weather was great, it was hot ,there was no wind, rested, tanned, gained impressions"
2 families with children February
"We drove 2, we were families 1 + 1 and 2 + 2 .... the sea is fabulous - fish, Corals, it's not for nothing that they say that the Red Sea is the most beautiful! entry into the sea is also good for children!"
There are other moms with different personal feelings.

It’s exactly the taste and color .. but I definitely wouldn’t advise you to go to Royal Grand Charm with a child, I once had a negligence, by the way, on January 3, we were in it with a child, everyone hung out in one small pool (that’s still a pleasure) near the sea right specifically it was blowing, and it’s definitely doubtful to fly with a child in February ... take drops from otitis media

We have been resting for 3 years in a row in the period February-March in Sharm, the first time we went, the eldest child was 4 years old, the youngest 3 years old.
The weather there, of course, during this period is not hot (26.27 degrees during the day), but compared to ours, I think it is paradise. The sea was 24 degrees (February 28, 2021).
Children swam, not like in summer, of course, but still.
Light jackets were worn in the evening.
What can I say about hotels, I would recommend:
Domina coral bay Sultan or Elisir, this is a 5 * bay (for 2 weeks there were never red flags on the beach) good food, a good reef.
Faraama reef, this is 4 *, sandy sunset, excellent bay, best reef, normal food.
Still not bad during this period in Sharks bay, there is the Concord hotel, we liked everything.
I do not advise the vaunted and promoted Otium family amphoras 5 *. The wind is unreal, we didn’t swim at all for a week, the pools were barely warm.

Inexpensive hotel in Sharm is very difficult to find, even in late February - early March, even if you sit on suitcases and watch the "burning ".
I would not advise to go with small children at all during this period - in any case it will be cold to children

It is cold for adults, not so much for children - the sea is not very warm, there will be a cold wind, just the season of the winds, no matter what hotel you are in, it makes no sense if you want to swim in the sea, unless you go on excursions .. Move at least end of April-beginning of May

With children, it will be easier for you in Hurghada, there is a gentle sandy sunset, in Sharm - reefs, cliffs, but also fish, but you can find if you look for a sandy sunset, and warmer in the bays, of course, in Sharm. For such purposes, I took the Mazar resort * 3 hotel in Sharm - there is a gorgeous beach, there is a sandy sunset for children, and there are corals further with depth for adults, diving is not needed, just swim with a mask and get a sea of u200bu200bpositive, with a bunch of fish, even fish and swim up to the shore. The food in this hotel is so-so, but now it is a universal problem. I don’t know how simple a baby is 1 year old, I only traveled with such a small one in Ukraine to cook myself. There are no such conditions in Egypt.

Hurghada itself is very windy and there is no such protection as in Sharm in windless bays, but in the Hurghada region there are places where hotels are located in a low-wind place
small part of Sahl Hasheesh area of OTIUM Pyramisa Beach Resort, Sunrise Romance Resort (Adults Only!) and Old Palace Resort
part of Makadi Bay hotel area Grand Waterworld Makadi, Fort Arabesque Resort, Prima Life Makadi,SUNRISE Royal Makad

You don’t need to look especially, there are places where they are protected from the wind in Sharm and an excellent sandy entry where even corals are not needed
The most windless bay number 1 in Sharm is Sharm el Maya, the Iberotel Palace hotel, but the hotel with the concept of adult only !!!
Also in Sharm El Maya is Beach Albatros Sharm, a modest 5 *
Turquoise Beach Hotel 3* - normal 3* in Sharm El Maya
Seti Sharm - not the first line, budget Sharm El Maya
The next windless and neighboring Sharm el Maya is Hadaba Ras Um el Sid, especially the bay of Club El Faraana, Reef Oasis Beach + Sentido, Jaz Fanara hotels - protected from the wind and there is a sandy sunset and there is a beautiful reef
The hybrid version of Albatros Aqua Park + Albatros Aqua Blue are also located where Reef Oasis Beach and Sentido, but not on the first line. The beaches of Albatros hotels are just located in Sharm el Maya.
The next calmest and with sandy beaches is Naama Bay, there are many hotels.

In Hurghada, you need to read the reviews very carefully, because there are hotels without the sea. More precisely, it seems to be there, but the tides are such that you will spend most of your time in the pools. A friend and her family visited Steigenberger (an excellent and very expensive hotel), but they practically didn’t swim in the sea. Perhaps this is a seasonal phenomenon, I do not know, but there is such a moment.

Yes, our family rested in Hurghada before quarantine in the albatross aqua park from the very end of April with the transition to May 12 nights and when we arrived we were saddened by the cold weather, we actually went in hats and jackets who had them. Since May, the weather improved and we had a great rest, and the sea was already warm and the pools were heated until May 1, so we were satisfied with the rest. They said that it was a rare anomaly, but for several days we froze. After Hurghada somehow does not pull. My husband took my son to the pyramids (this was the main reason for choosing Hurghada) just during this period of cold days.

Do not read reviews, but look at the map! I ALWAYS look at the location of the selected hotel on Google map - you can clearly see the coastline, where it is shallow, where it is deep, the length of the pontoon, etc.

ka_Sandra maybe. I am not a specialist in Hurghada, I was there 4 times, unlike Sharm. My family just loves charm, because the presence of reefs for my husband and children (I’m deep .... on the reef, the main thing for me is the sea and sunset without pantone) is a mandatory option.

“Do not read reviews, but look at the map” I suppose that you need to be very advanced, not even just advanced, but a brilliant hydrographer or oceanologist in order to calculate the tide schedule using google maps.
But if there are no specialists from the hydrographic service nearby, then observing the ebbs and flows of other tourists reflected in their reviews is very helpful
