Arabian Style, 4-Star hotel, situated near the city center, and directly on the Red Sea shore.It has two large swimming pools, and a private beach.

The beach is well designed as a circular shape, with a little rock island in the middle.

The water is crystal-clear, and you can clearly see the natural beauties of the Red Sea, from coral reefs to colourful fish, just by standing by the shore. The hotel also provides snorkeling equipment if you really enjoy watching fish swim around you. The beach has a small restaurant that provides lunch and snacks all day. You can also rent pedals to go around the beach to the marina area and back again. It was a great experience, especially for young children who cannot swim by themselves, yet want to see what's out there!

It is a great place for a family to spend the day.
