//Mövenpick Sharm El Sheikh
A hillside Naama Bay resort that trades on its position: Moorish architecture, sea views from almost every room, and its own private coves with a reef below. The price of the view is the climb; the grounds are big and stepped. Book a sea-view room and accept that the beach and the strip are both downhill.
Mövenpick Resort Sharm El Sheikh is built into the hill above Naama Bay, and everything follows from that. The architecture is Moorish, carved wood and tile; the views from the terraces are the widest on the bay; and Naama's strip is 25 minutes' walk downhill or six minutes by taxi, close enough to use and far enough not to hear. Below the resort are its own private coves, a mix of sand, rock, jetty and coral, with snorkelling that reviewers rate.
There are just under 300 rooms. Classic and Deluxe rooms are 24 sqm with sea or partial sea views; Superior rooms are 35 sqm and sleep four. Ten restaurants and bars include Liwa (buffet), Rangoli (Indian), El Kebabgy (grills and mezze) and the Horizon bar. There is a heated pool with a kids' section, a kids' club, Lotus Spa with a hammam, and a dive centre. Meal plan varies by rate.
The trade-off is physical. The grounds are large and stepped, the last full renovation was in 2010 and it shows, and in-room Wi-Fi is weak. The airport is about ten minutes. If steps are a problem, Novotel is flat on the sand in Naama Bay; if the reef matters more than the view, DoubleTree Sharks Bay.
I had a wonderful stay at Mövenpick and would definitely recommend the hotel. What truly stood out was the exceptional service and dedication of the staff. A special thank you to Aya at the reception, who went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly during my stay. She was always available to answer any questions or assist with any request, even after her working hours. Her professionalism, kindness, and genuine care made a big difference and made me feel truly welcomed and valued as a guest. The entire team was friendly, attentive, and committed to providing excellent service. I truly appreciate their efforts and look forward to staying at Mövenpick again.
Friendly staff and great rooms
— Nothing
Mohammed emad from the reception team was very helpful. Hotel was very clean, comfortable. I recommend it
No. It is a family resort with a kids' club, a kids' pool and a playground, and Superior rooms sleep four. For adults-only nearby, look at Sharks Bay or Sharm El Maya.
The resort has its own private coves below the hill: a mix of jetty, sand, rock and coral, with snorkelling reviewers rate. You reach them on paths and steps through the grounds; we could not verify an internal shuttle, so ask the hotel if stairs are a concern.
The hotel says ten minutes; Oyster says twelve by car. The hotel runs an airport shuttle for guests who book it in advance with their flight details.
Superior Double Room with Sea View: 35 sqm, sleeps four, faces the bay. Classic Queen Room with Partial Sea View is the budget way to a version of the same view in 24 sqm.
Yes, downhill: Oyster times it at 25 minutes on a paved path, or about six minutes by taxi. Naama Bay's bars, shops and promenade are there; the Old Market is 10 km.

Book your stay at Mövenpick Resort Sharm El Sheik Naama Bay for a memorable and hassle-free vacation.

At 35 sqm it is the largest standard room, sleeps four, and faces the bay the hotel is built to look at. The 24 sqm Classic and Deluxe rooms are tight for anything beyond a couple with light luggage.
Value pick:Classic Queen Room with Partial Sea View — the lowest way in; 24 sqm, so a base rather than a place to linger.

Oyster times the walk at 25 minutes on a paved path, or 6 minutes by car. Coffee on the promenade, a look at the bay, then a taxi back up the hill.

The easy night out from a hotel that is quiet after dinner. Taxi both ways after dark; the path is long and uphill on the way back.

The hotel gives 10 km to the Old Market. The lanes behind the mosque are the cheaper, more local dinner than Naama Bay, and the mosque itself is worth the stop.
