Holidays in Marsa Alam
Offering a tranquil atmosphere and unspoilt natural environment, holidays in Marsa Alam are perfect for rest and relaxation, and we offer a range of hotels where you can do just that. Located approximately four hours south of Hurghada, Marsa Alam enjoys the same great year-round climate and is almost tropical in appearance, with palm trees, coral reefs and beaches of near-white, silky sand.

The area is especially popular with divers, attracted by the pristine reefs and variety of marine life.

Holidays in Port Ghalib
Port Ghalib's variety of restaurants, cafes, shops and bars make it ideal for those looking for a more lively holiday. Home to the world's second largest man-made swimming lagoon (situated between the three hotels), an international marina, a kilometre long corniche featuring 110 retail outlets and a traditional Egyptian bazaar, Port Ghalib offers plenty to keep you busy on your holiday.*

Port Ghalib also offers a unique Kids' Club (ages 4-12 in low season; 2-12 in high season) for children staying at all three hotels, allowing them to participate in a variety of activities and programmes such as treasure hunts, mini golf, bowling and much more. So while you're busy exploring the dining, activity and shopping options of the resort, you can rest assured that your children are getting the most out of their holiday as well.

* Please note as Port Ghalib is currently under development, it's possible that not all shops, facilities and activities will be operational by the time of your holiday. Check with us at time of booking for the latest news.
