Excellent beach resort.

Since the moment of arrival, the check in took less than 10 minutes. We're given a first floor room. Very spacious room, clean with a sea view. We used the two pools in front of our room. The beach is fantastic with some corals and plenty of small colourful fish. Food was excellent and a huge variety of fresh plates. All local drinks were available and served everywhere. Excellent friendly staff. We'll surely return back.

Wonderful stay. Immaculate hotel, lots of food choices and plenty to do. Beach is great, you can spend days just snorkelling in the bay! Only downside - like most places in Egypt - is the constant sales pestering, but they are polite when you turn them away. The hotel is making loads more upgrades too, so will definitely return!

It was 14 years since we last stayed at Fort Arabesque. We knew it was a good hotel but it has improved in so many ways since we last visited. The facilities, grounds and beach are fabulous. The staff are all so friendly and helpful. I’ve now stayed 3 times at ‘The Fort’ and I’m sure I’ll be back.

Amazing well kept resort with house reef

Beautiful grounds well kept, house reef for snorkling , free oarking as we had our own car and planty restaurants and bars to choose from. Only rhing we missed some snacks for our drinks around 5 before going up to the room to shower and get ready for the evening. Some simple chips or peanuts would have done the job
