Rehana Royal Beach Resort - Aquapark & Spa - Family & Couples Only

I have rated this hotel 3 stars at best. We were a family of 3, 2 adults and our 16 year old daughter. We booked this holiday based on the trip advisor 4.5 rating. How disappointed were we! Pros Lovely large rooms, with a fridge, comfy beds (3 singles) .2 heated pools, which you definitely need if visiting in feb. Beautiful beach with fantastic snorkeling in the shallows or off the jetty. Food in alacarte restaurants were very good. All staff were friendly. Grounds were amaculate, no rubbish and clean. Cons Hotel is 3 star max and is very dated. The main eating area isn't very good. Food cold, people just pushing in and grabbing stuff. Breakfast was probably the worst meal of all with regards to choice. All Inclusive drinks were oķ but they came in tiny plastic cups that give you 2/3 sips. This was both pool bar and main bar areas. Entertainment team really tried, but everything was not in English and they struggled to translate anything to us. The shower in our room was very old and just ran cold. We complained to reception and was told to run it for atleast 15 mins before it goes warm. We did this and nothing...... they really weren't interested in helping us. You can only get free WiFi in the reception area. We opted for 7 days at $10 per device. Overall, we were extremely lucky with the weather being 24/25°c each day with a beautiful location. We were the only English people in the hotel with the rest being mainly Russian. The occupancy was probably on 30% full. I could imagine it being extremely busy at peak times. I would definitely return to sharm again, just not this hotel.

I would like to thank the Rehana lobby bar staff REDA Daoud, MOHAMED Hamdy Youssif Abdelghani, and the restaurant staff Alla Sobhy for their good mood, excellent service and attention, they work great as well Aber from SPA the last everything is okay

Stayed at the Rehana in December 2024. Reception: The staff were friendly and helpful despite English not necessarily their strong point. It was a pleasant surprise to get a room upgrade to an executive suite on arrival. Room: Large with comfortable bed and fridge (only stocked with water). There is tea making facilities. There are some shops outside the hotel complex for more items eg coffee. But beware I was ripped off buying coffee and milk (£14). The room had a fantastic sea view – great to wake up to. Note Wi-Fi for rooms is an extra charge. Restaurant: Again, staff very friendly and helpful. Downside is the food was very monotonous. Same breakfast and evening meals for the 10 days. It was also a struggle to get the egg guy at breakfast to make an omelette. I only saw one person succeed during my time there. Not much in the way of snacks during the day. Popcorn and ice cream available in the afternoon. Looks like there are snack areas but not open during this time. Pool and beach: Plenty of sunbeds. You can get a fresh towel each day. Pools weren’t too busy, or the beach. Quite easy to get a sunbed. The week after Christmas was going to be very busy, so this might be different then. Drinks: Small plastic cups. Beer very scarce and rationed. They don’t know how to poor it either. Spirits available but limited. Wine was only available in the restaurant. Tasted like it was watered down though. Overall, not too bad of a stay. It is worth considering if you are not too fussy about repetitious meals and alcohol being in short supply.

Arrived late evening. There was a bar open with music that loud it would awaken passengers from their slumber on overhead flights. You will not get drunk here. Glasses are disposable plastic. More like a shot glass than a pint. The beer is alright, the spirits are shocking, unless you are stripping paint.  At the Pool Bar and the Beach Bar, same deafening music and disposable shot glass rules apply. Music is 80s ballads on an incredibly small loop. Thumbs up to Fathy & his little mate at the pool bar. Meals at the dining room catered more for the Russian guests than Western. Best meal choices are from the balcony chefs, awesome kebabs. Shout out to Hoosan in the dining room, great service. The lobby bar is more civilised with glass rather than plastic and no deafening din. Hanna was a great host. Sometimes the TV showed Premier League. Bedroom was large but dated. There was no double bed, no hot water, sheets had seen better days, but a clean room courtesy of cleaner Mo. Take $US or Sterling, nobody wants £Egytian, not even State run shops (top-tip, DO NOT go on the "free" city tour). The Salesmen around the complex are relentless, like locusts, selling spas, trips, massages, haircuts, facials and even sand, although "Sandman" was great! Be firm as they are not put off with a no. Nevertheless, had a good break in the sunshine hence 4 overall. Would I return? Unlikely. In short, 5* grounds, 3* bedroom, 3* food, 1* spirits and measures, 5* staff.

The food was varied with a lot of choice available and long windows for the meal times which worked for us as our baby sleeps 12-2 and we could have lunch 2-3! Abdul and Ibraheem were amazing in the restaurant and went above and beyond to help us with our needs as our baby was dairy free. All the restaurant staff were very friendly and accommodating.

A very beautiful trip in a wonderful hotel with beautiful views, food, sweets, drinks and service. The rooms are clean and the service in the restaurant is excellent. The most beautiful rooms are next to the swimming pool and the sea. There is more than one swimming pool and a beautiful aquarium for young people and children. The hotel management is very ethical and follow-up.
