The Five Pools
Olympic, infinity, lagoon and a heated pool for the kids.
Beyond the room
Above the water,
Every day here writes itself between water and warm light. Begin in the cool of an Olympic lane, drift to the lagoon, then walk 450 metres of private shore to a coral garden that starts at your feet. By dusk the desert calls — quad trails, monastery roads, the lamplit lanes of Naama Bay. The hard part is choosing.

Five Pools
Five pools thread the gardens — an Olympic-size pool for the disciplined morning, an outdoor infinity edge that erases the line between pool and sea, a lagoon-style basin to drift in, and a heated pool kept gentle for the smallest swimmers. Choose your water by the hour.
An edge that meets the horizon, and shallows made for slowness.
Warm, watched, and shaded — built for confident first strokes.
450m Private Shore
Our private beach runs 450 metres along Shark's Bay — soft sand, calm water, and loungers spaced for quiet. The reef begins where the sand ends, so the snorkel is never far. Stay shallow, or wade out toward the deep blue. Either way, the morning belongs to you.

Dive Centre
Our on-site scuba diving centre opens the warmest, clearest water on earth — try-dives for beginners, certification courses, guided descents for the seasoned. Snorkel the offshore coral reefs, or take to the surface with the full run of watersports. The Red Sea is at its best beneath the line.
Guided reefs and certification, from first breath to deep blue.
A full programme on the bay, with gear and guides on hand.
Excursions
Trade the lounger for the open dunes. Chase a quad across the desert, sail to White Island for a barefoot day on a sandbar adrift in the sea, or follow the old roads to faith and wilderness. Then end where Sharm comes alive after dark — the lamplit bazaar of Naama Bay.
79km into the Sinai mountains, beneath Mount Sinai itself.
A national park of legendary reefs, 23km from the gate.
A standing programme of water, wilderness and play — book at the concierge desk, or simply step outside.
Olympic, infinity, lagoon and a heated pool for the kids.
A full diving centre and offshore coral gardens to explore.
Quad trails, White Island sandbars and Ras Muhammad days.
Floodlit courts for an early set or a cooler evening rally.
Daily programmes and supervised play, so parents can drift.
The bazaar, the cafés and the lights of Sharm by night.
We swam before breakfast, dived before noon, and watched the desert turn gold from a quad at six.A guest's day at Grand Rotana
