HILTON WATERFALLS 5* or MELIA SHARM HOTEL 5* help me choose!
Good afternoon everyone!
Please help me choose a hotel! We are planning to leave on 6.03. in Sharm, 3 adults + 1 child. The main priorities are pretty territory and good food.

I can't speak for Melia, but the Hilton is very good! everything is on the level

Both are very good too!
But I would choose HILTON WATERFALLS, I really love this area - Hadaba

Thank you very much for the answer!
I read reviews about the Hilton, they are embarrassed by complaints about not very good food .. Do you know how it is with food?

Definitely HILTON WATERFALLS 5 * is better in terms of service, territory, location. But you will not swim in either one or the other because of the location (there are no conditions for safety from sharks). If you are ready to swim in the pools (there are 7 of them, 2 are heated), then go.

Everything fluctuates either for the better or for the worse, possibly depending on the shift (they work for 14 days).
And after the latest events, you will need to focus only on the latest reviews.

in the HILTON WATERFALLS 5 * beach area, and in general in the Hadaba area, there were no cases of shark attacks and their approach to the coastal part.

I also tend to the Hilton, but from the advantages of Melia - it is newer and, if we take it specifically on March 6, it is cheaper by $ 300 (money is not important, but still ..) And it seems that the sea is open there ..
Dear travelers, what would you choose?

near the Hilton there is a paid Phanar beach, and so it was not closed at all.
Then the sandy bay of El Maya is not far away, where everything is open, and the sharks are not interested at all there,
because there are no corals or fish (well, maybe a couple of fish will swim).

I always have Hadaba as a priority, and from this list it is Hilton. well, sharks should not be afraid, I swam there all the time when there was this panic - there are no sharks.

So they don’t let you go into the water, knee-deep, no further! It doesn’t say that it’s impossible, but you simply won’t go into the sea on your beach. The police are driving along the shore in a motor boat and the hotel will be punished for disobedience. Therefore, the beach workers monitor the bathing of vacationers in this way. We went to the wild beach behind the Albatros hotel, no one controls it.

In Egypt, it is often found that old furniture is brought into new hotels and already with bedbugs.
Of the 5 * in this area, I also like Reef Oasis Beach Resort 5 *, the beach is in the bay, there is no wind, there is no storm either.

another plus in the direction of the Hilton - you can go out for a walk to "1000 and 1 night", in Ilmercato. to the monument to the crashed plane (dolphins used to swim there often). in Melia, only transportation to the city. outside the airport.

And Naama Bay, the Old Market is nearby! It must be taken into account, do not sit in the hotel around the clock!

At the end of January we returned from Melia, we liked it very much! The pontoon is open, swim freely. Recommend. We have not been to the Hilton, but I think that both hotels are worthy. You choose, depending on what is more important for you, and money plays an important role ... Good luck!

In Melia Sharm we walked around the hotel (we rested in neighboring Tirana in December) very beautiful, magnificent pools overflow one into another, clean, green. (Heated pools) the beach is very well maintained. We even thought that next time we will go to this hotel. He has good reviews. Great variety of fish and corals.
аватар oresta52
At least until 10.02 at the HILTON WATERFALLS 5 * hotel, they were not allowed to swim beyond the pontoon, and before it, knee-deep. God forbid that something changes, but I have no fresh information. You want to go to the sea for anyone, so choose, if the tourists who arrived at MELIA SHARM HOTEL 5 * wrote that the pontoon is open, but I doubt that they did something for safety, maybe they put a whistler on the pontoon, go there, a good hotel, the more you will use the services and services of two hotels.

Thank you all very much for your replies!
Tell me, again, dear travelers - is Melia far from civilization? - Naama Bay, Old City? What to do there in the evenings?
And what about the winds? This, if I'm not mistaken, is the second bay after Nabq?
We don’t often go out to rest somewhere, and now I’m just confused with the choice, I don’t want to make a mistake ..
аватар oresta52
It can be as windy as in Nabq, but that's how lucky you are with the weather! Naama Bay is far away, the Old Market is even further away. But there are buses from the hotel to the city and paid and free. How will it be now, when there are few people (but there are a lot of Germans, other foreigners in this hotel, it should be crowded. But it has its own beautiful street, so everything will be fine. You have a large territory of 2 hotels, there is where to take a walk. And heated pools .

Definitely Hilton .... And then there is more news, from March 1, the Head of South Sinai, ordered to lift the ban on swimming ...
аватар oresta52
They have been promising since December, and the answer came from the hotel to a personal question that people bathe! People received such misinformation from us, and then they were offended that they only wet their feet! If it is important for them to swim, then it is necessary to clarify for sure, and if not, then of course the Hilton. Foreigners do not climb into the sea and live!
