Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

There are no words to describe how perfect every aspect of this resort is. Every single box on our wish list was ticked here.Cleanliness, maintenance, great staff, lovely food with buffet restaurant and 4 a la carte to choose from, masses of space around beach and pools ( including quiet zones that made you feel like the only one in the hotel ), choice of beautiful bars again giving you choice ( one where a lady plays piano every night and another where there are pool tables, TV's etc and a singer or duet every night ) Good day time entertainment with a friendly team. The cleanest clear sea I have ever seen. You have to come to believe how good it is. The staff who shone just that bit extra were...Kannan Subramaniam, Maria El Shenawy, Ahmed Saadi, Moustafa Mgdy, Khaled Atman, Aml Sarah, Mahmoud Reza, Solo (entertainment and Malak Farag but huge thanks to all of the staff.

From the entrance you walk into the reception area and lobby bar, that are is a place of outstanding beauty. There is no one picture which can do this justice it is truly stunning. A lady plays the piano every evening in the lobby bar, and to listen to her and take in this outstanding room you think you've gone to heaven. The hotel is kept immaculate and the gardens are beautiful, the food is good and all the staff are exceptional. There are quiet areas which you can totally relax in which not many hotels have. We have been to many quality hotels in Hurghada but none of them can match this place, it is a place like no other. I booked this place again the day after I got home, we will return many many times.

Staff and animation team excellent. Enjoyed a solo trip and felt safe. Asian and Italian restaurants def my favourite. And love the warm swimming pools, makes all the Difference to me as I find the sea cold... transfer to hotel was good but departing transfer, driver was taking unnecessary risks and driving much too fast. I would return but wish something could be done about the continual loud slamming room doors at unsocial hours !

Back again! 5th time for us. This is our happy place! It’s just so lovely, my partner has a fantastic place to kite surf the Surf Point team are wonderful. Although the hotel is currently undergoing renovations you would never know as no disruption to guests. Have upgraded hotel with heated outdoor pool which when going in March or earlier is lovely! Good Wi-Fi and all the staff are wonderful, hotel is always scrupulously clean. Food is excellent, with immense choice. The new General Manager is lovely and making huge improvements to what is already a wonderful hotel. Can’t wait to our next visit!
