Where to stay in Sharm El Sheikh?

Areas drawn from our hotels' addresses and updated as the selection changes.

Nabq Bay

Best for Resort-based relaxation

Located in the northern part of Sharm El Sheikh, Nabq Bay features modern, expansive resorts and views across the Straits of Tiran. The area is known for its protected marine park and flatter coastal landscape.

Cleopatra Luxury Resort Sharm - Adults Only 16 years plusRixos Sharm El Sheikh - Adults Only 18 PlusRixos Premium SeagateSteigenberger AlcazarCleopatra Luxury Resort Sharm El Sheikh

Sharks Bay and Ras Nosrani

Best for Snorkelling and families

This coastal stretch is home to house reefs that drop directly into the deep sea, making it highly regarded for diving. It also features Soho Square, an upscale hub for dining, shopping, and entertainment.

Baron Palms Adults Friendly Only 16 years plus Boutique Hotel StyleGrand Rotana Resort & SpaSunrise Arabian Beach ResortSavoy Sharm El SheikhFour Seasons Sharm El SheikhMeraki Resort Sharm El SheikhRoyal Savoy Sharm El Sheikh

Naama Bay and Pasha Bay

Best for Nightlife and sandy beaches

As the original tourism hub of Sharm El Sheikh, Naama Bay features a pedestrian promenade lined with cafes, shops, and restaurants. The bay is one of the few areas with gently shelving sandy beaches suitable for wading.

Naama Bay Suites & SPAMovenpick Resort Sharm El SheikhReef Oasis Blue Bay Resort & Spa

Hadaba

Best for Dramatic coastal views

Positioned on a steep cliffside in the southern peninsula, Hadaba offers panoramic vistas across the Red Sea. It is a quieter residential and resort district popular for its deep reef walls and the historic Old Market nearby.

Sunrise Montemare Resort -Grand Select

Areas to consider

Visitors seeking calm waters for casual swimming should note that Nabq Bay is prone to strong winds and currents, often making its long jetties unsuitable for less experienced swimmers.

How we chose these hotels

At our latest review (August 2026) the properties listed above were measured against the same standard: sustained guest scores on both Booking.com and Google (weighted by how many reviews sit behind them), five-star class or an equivalent premium level, a genuinely first-rate location, and facilities that set the hotel apart.

As a guideline we look for around 8.5 or higher on Booking.com, but no single number decides on its own. When the sources disagree, the broader evidence wins. Guest scores on this page update continuously, and the selection is re-reviewed at regular intervals. The full standard is described in how we choose hotels.

Frequently Asked Questions

Cleopatra Luxury Resort Sharm - Adults Only 16 years plus is a designated adults-only resort, so the pools and beach stay free of children. Travellers can also experience a tranquil child-free environment at Baron Palms Adults Friendly Only 16 years plus Boutique Hotel Style or enjoy the adults-only beachfront atmosphere at Rixos Sharm El Sheikh - Adults Only 18 Plus, where ultra all-inclusive covers ten restaurants and a house reef lies just off the beach in Nabq Bay.

The warm months run from March to November, the ideal period for sun-seekers. For exceptionally warm water, August features sea temperatures reaching 30.3 degrees Celsius.
