Just returned from Sham and had a fantastic holiday. Was a little worried before going after reading some dodgy reviews about this hotel. But there was no reason to! This is a really lovely hotel - the photos do not do it justice - its beautiful. Also the staff are so friendly, they really make you welcome!

The pool area is huge and very nice, the hotel is set on the beach which again was very nice. Its a tiered beach and a jetty into the sea, there is also coral so you can snorkel - amazing fish down there!!

The food is of a good standard, and was one on the main reasons we were worrying before going - but was nothing like what the reviews suggested it was! There was a huge choice of food and you'd never go hungry! There are 4 other reastaurants other than the main one, all of which were very nice.

The only down side of this hotel is the entertainment on an evening, it is bascially just for the Italians! It was complete rubbish! But it's not far into Naama Bay - 15 min taxi ride away, which is heaving on an evening!

The hotel is full of Russians and Italians but didn't find them that rude although they dont talk to you! There were quite a few English there as well so wasn't too bad. But when you talk to the locals they the resort is full of them too! Not just this hotel!

I would recommend this hotel, we had a fantastic time and will definately be going back!

We stayed at the Tropicana Grand Oasis Hotel last year for a week along with our friends and wish we had gone for 2!!The service was fantastic,the staff couldnt do enough for you at anytime.The facilities at the hotel were second to none-we couldnt have asked for more-they cant do enough for the brirish.The private beach was fantastic and snorkelling is a must.Roll on our next stay at the Tropicana Grand Oasis.

My partner and I stayed at this hotel a few years back and we loved it. The service was amazing, it may be because we went out of season and it was a little quieter.
I do agree there were a few Russians there, but it is a great place to mix with other cultures and try new things.
The hotel has everything you could want and if it's not there they will arrange it for you.
the staff were amazing and honest.
I would definitely recommend this hotel to my friends and we are planning to go again.

“Russian Revolt...ing”

Tropicana Grand Oasis Resort

2/2 found this review helpful

Me, my partner and friends stayed at this hotel for a week in Oct/Nov 07.

Lots of Russians who are rude beyond description!

The headline of the holiday has to be the dining experience which was utter chaos and a battle of mind games with the hundreds of Russians. There was at least one hilarious incident each visit, including the aggresive sandwich maker who guarded his area with sharperned tongues and an obsessive approach to the way a sandwhich was prepared, God help anybody to approach his little butty station when he wasn't there, be warned and sit close by for the fun and whatever you don't ask for mayo after the filling has been put in.

The Pizza queue will send you back to cold war bread queues but persevere as the rest of the food is very basic! There are themed food nights but also a nighlty 'British' section, stay away from the fight for anaemic, limp, very un-British chips.

The staff were mostly friendly, Mohammed in the main bar, after regular small tips, brought our drinks before we had finished the last...always good.

The hotel was very clean and the pool area was very nice, the entertainment team (from Russia and Italy) will drive you mad though, there will be several attempts each day you are there to get you to play water polo, water aerobics etc.

The Red Sea made up for any of the above, the snorkelling at the hotel's beach was absolutely fantastic. A boat trip to Ras Mohammed (including snorkelling) was well worth the tenner it cost.

For what I paid I got what I expected, if you're going to Egypt for sun and sea it's great, if your going for a fine dining experience give it a wide berth.

“Back in the USSR....”

Tropicana Grand Oasis Resort

17 Oct 2007
6/6 found this review helpful

Me and my girlfriend stayed at the Tropicana Grand Oasis for the first two weeks of October 2007 and had a great time.

The biggest problem is not the hotel or staff, but the guests. The proportion of guests seemed to be 80% Russian, 15% Italian, 3% British, 2% Other. I'm all for mixing with other nationalities on Holiday, but there were just too many Russians, many of whom are quite rude towards the staff and other guests (pushing in ques at meal times was a favorite).

The pool area is really nice.

The beach is terraced and only good for the snorkelling, which is brilliant. We went on the red sea cruise which was meant to have some of the best snorkelling in the area. All it did was make us realise how good it was at our beach, although it was a good trip none-the-less.

The food is quite good, but being all inclusive, it's never going to win any awards. There are three a la cart restaurants that you can eat at. You need to book and can eat at them every night if you like. We only ate at the italian which was nice.

The service is good on the whole, but seemed to be a bit 'all or nothing'. By this I mean you were either waiting ages for a drink, or being bombarded with drinks you didn't really want (lobby bar).

The pool bar staff were great. Only downside of drinking there was having to endure the 'entertainment' which would probably be great if you were Russian....

We were with Thomson and went on the Stars and Dinner trip, Quad Bikes and red Sea Cruise. All were really good and recommended.

The weather was perfect, 28 to 34 degrees in the day.

Naama Bay is a good night out. We went a few times and ate out very cheaply. £5 for fillet steak! £4-5 each way for taxis, but there is a free bus from the hotel you can book.

Would recommed this hotel, but wouldn't go back. The world is too big to go the same place every year.
