Best Hotels in Red Sea

For divers and sun-seekers, Egypt's Red Sea coast is a desert-meets-ocean marvel. The main draw is the underwater world, with legendary sites like the SS Thistlegorm wreck and the coral walls of Ras Mohammed National Park just offshore from Sharm El Sheikh. Above water, the dramatic Sinai mountains provide a stark, beautiful backdrop to the resort towns, while Hurghada offers a more expansive city feel with a long corniche and marina life. Days here are spent on boats, at beach clubs, or exploring desert wadis by 4x4.

This coastline suits a wide range of travelers. Sharm El Sheikh, particularly Naama Bay and Shark's Bay, is excellent for couples and divers with its compact layout and direct airport access. Hurghada, with its bigger choice of all-inclusive resorts in areas like Sahl Hasheesh, is a classic family holiday destination. Getting here is straightforward, with international airports in both Sharm and Hurghada serving many European cities, and local transport consists mainly of taxis and hotel shuttles.

On HOTEVI, you'll find 38 hotels across the region, from Sharm El Sheikh to Marsa Alam. The selection is dominated by large, full-service resorts, many offering all-inclusive packages right on the beach. You can also find a smaller number of boutique dive lodges and more budget-friendly hotels, especially in central Hurghada, giving you options whether your priority is unlimited pool time or direct access to the reef.
