Pickalbatros Aqua Blu Sharm El Sheikh

I had in issue with check in process , the guy at the reception told me that my reservation is for European people with discount of 20% . So he asked to pay the difference I reject to pay any extra piece other than the total in my reservation. The check in took from me 1 hour I would not recommend this resort and I probably won’t come back to this resort ever

Just waiting to fly home, cannot find the words to explain how good this hotel is. Stunning resort, so much to do. Travelling with my husband, 6 year old daughter and my dad. Rooms - clean and a good size. Housekeeping made extra efforts to create animals with the towel which made my daughter’s day. Head of housekeeping every evening to check we were satisfied. He gave my daughter a gift and, when seeing I had a few mosquito bites, gave us some extra plug ins for the room and a spray! Above and beyond. Food - plenty of options. Food of a high standard with different restaurants to eat in. Italian, Fish, Chinese, Indian, Egyptian. Options of a snack bars during day doing pizza, nuggets, burgers, hot dogs etc. We never went hungry, and waiting staff are amazing, very attentive and happy to see you. Free ice cream at some of the bars during the day. Drinks - beer is good. Cocktails are good. Plenty of bars dotted around the place. Wine was good too! Pools/Slides - There is no lack of pools on this resort, they are everywhere! Waterslides were amazing - 120cm height for the bigger ones with 110cm plunge pool. Also a couple of splash parks for wee ones and a wave pool. They also have a “crazy river” where you can row around in a raft battle wave: this was a lot of fun. On top of what is at the hotel you get access to the water park next door, which we only did once as the slides were much more for older kids and adults. Couple of impressive splash parks though for younger children. You can access the bars and snack bar here as part of your all inclusive. Sun loungers are everywhere, you will always get one! Entertainment - we didn’t see many of the shows as we were usually exhausted lol but they seemed good. Waiting staff again happy to serve you drinks. There is also a huge VR room with an insane amount of VR equipment that is open the evening -!: free to use. There are also small quads, motorbikes and scooters available for hire at a cost of €10. During the day they have these big rickshaw style bikes that you can hire for free and ride around the resort. You also get one free visit to the Neverland Show at hotel next door. You book at reception day before you want to do - it’s dinner and a show so don’t eat before you go. Meal was beef tagged tagine, kofta and chicken with quinoa. You also get bread, dips and a pudding so kids might want a wee snack before they go if you have fussy eaters. Staff- As I have always found, the people of Egypt are kind and hospitable. The staff at this hotel have all been wonderful. We make the effort to chat and be kind and I always feel it makes your experience even better. Special mention to one the waiters, Nour, who went above and beyond for us, especially my daughter. Very grateful. Beach - not far from hotel but there is a very frequent mini bus takes you there and back. Small area but perfect for beginner snorkelers! Loads of marine fish in fairly shallow water. Food at beach is fine but isn’t as good
