About this collection

Sharm el-Sheikh has two versions. The one most people see — and the one this collection takes you to. Four days built around the Red Sea's best reef, the silence of the Sinai desert, and a city that comes alive after sunset. No decisions, no research. Just show up.

I built this around two rules: always be in the water before 9am, and never eat where the signs are in four languages. Ras Mohammed twice — once by land, once by boat — because the same place looks completely different from the water. The desert on day four isn't a bonus activity. It's the point. Sharm without the Sinai is just a beach.

Where the Reef Meets the Desert

Five days in Sharm. This collection is based on two distinct landscapes that completely change the mood of each other: the sea and the desert. The Red Sea side is lighter, lighter, more flowing; the desert side is drier, quieter, simpler. The V Hotel provides a comfortable base for this transition, and the real feeling of the trip comes from traveling back and forth between these two worlds.

Our verdict on Novotel Sharm El Sheikh

Novotel is the sensible first-time Sharm base: a big, well-run Naama Bay resort where you can walk to the promenade in the evening and wade straight into the sea in the morning, which is rarer in Sharm than it sounds. It is not a quiet hideaway and not the best house reef on the coast. Book it for the location and the beach, choose the Beach Wing if you can, and go to Ras Um Sid or Sharks Bay for the serious snorkelling.

  • ✓Book it if: First-timers who want Naama Bay on foot — Restaurants, the promenade and the market are a 15-minute walk along a pedestrian road, no taxis needed.
  • ✕Know before you book: Palm Wing rooms sit across a busy road from the beach.
