Kouta Park

A true 5-star experience from start to finish. We stayed 5 nights in a Royal Sea View Suite with our three young daughters (ages 4 and twin 2-year-olds). Traveling with little kids isn't easy, but the team at Cleopatra Sidi Heneish made us feel genuinely cared for every day. The resort is beautiful, with stunning landscaping, multiple pools that never felt crowded, and an amazing beach. The food exceeded our expectations—especially the pizza, fresh pita, and desserts. Our suite had an incredible view. The only small criticism is that the floors in our room could have been cleaned more thoroughly. What truly sets this resort apart is its staff. Mohsen made check-in and checkout effortless. Mohamed, the lifeguard at the small pool always greeted us warmly, brought towels, and kept our girls smiling. Halim, the floor manager for lunch at the Spuntini and dinner service at the main restaurant always had a table and two high chairs ready for us. Sara surprised us by baking custom pita bread and continued making it for us every day. Esraa kept our daughters entertained and made sure we never forgot to get ice cream. Hosny remembered our drink orders from day one. Everyone—from housekeeping and maintenance to the landscapers—greeted us with a smile and often helped carry our stroller across the sand. Those small acts of kindness meant so much to our family. Cleopatra Sidi Heneish has set a new standard for hospitality. We will definitely be back.

We just came back from a 4 day stay at Seven Seasons at the end of May 2024. El Alamein is an hour away from Alexandria, which wasn’t something we hadn’t fully realised until we got there. Also, it was not peak season so many things were not fully operating, like the Aqua Park. The apartment we stayed in was far away from the nearest pool so we needed to be driven there. The apartment, although nicely done up with modern facilities, was a little dusty when we got there and essential amenities listed on the website were missing, like shampoo etc. However, Dr Hassan was very helpful, he arranged a local driver, Alaa to transport us to and from the pool, get groceries, explore local area and to other parts of the marina. We did a day trip to Alexandria, which was amazing and also spent 2 days by the pool and marina (jet ski and speed boating). Language was a bit of an issue so we had to use a translator app. Dr Hassan regularly checked in with us. In the end, we actually had a great time and would highly recommend, but probably in peak season.
