//Reef Oasis Beach Resort
A big, older Hadaba resort that earns its keep on two things: a sandy walk-in beach with a pontoon out to the Temple reef, and an aqua park that keeps children busy all day. Rooms are dated and the beach fills up; book it for the water and the rate, not the polish.
Reef Oasis Beach Resort is a large four-star on Hadaba, the plateau above Um El Sid at the southern end of Sharm, and it overlooks the Temple reef. Rooms run from 35 m² Superior to a 45 m² Deluxe Family and a 100 m² Royal Suite; the venues include Cibum, Gioconda and Citadel restaurants, a Nemo's Kids Club, a spa and a dive centre. The aqua park and the number of pools are what sell it to families.
The water is the real strength. The beach has a sandy, walk-in entry, and a pontoon reaches past the buoys onto the Temple reef, so children paddle while snorkellers go out over proper coral. Reviewers call the reef fantastic; they also call the beach too small for the crowd, so timing matters.
What you give up is polish. Rooms are older and vary, food is hit and miss, and some slides sit idle. Nothing is walkable; Old Sharm and Al Fanar are a short taxi, Naama Bay 10–15 minutes. If you want newer rooms and a house reef, Sharks Bay hotels cost more; if you want the town on foot, look at Naama Bay. Meal plan varies by rate, so check what your rate covers before you count on dinner.
The staff were lovely, the room very clean and comfortable, l would have stayed longer but it was fully booked for my dates.
— Nothing
I loved everything about the property. The room was clean and comfortable, the resort itself was beautiful and the beach was amazing. The food was really good and there was a great variety. The staff were also so friendly, kind and helpful throughout our whole stay. Loved every minute of our stay. Would 100% stay here again!
— Honestly, there was nothing I didn’t like. I really enjoyed my entire stay.
Location, facilities, food, outdoor space, evenings with live music, all make our holiday unforgettable.
— We like everything.
No. It is a family resort with an aqua park, Nemo's Kids Club and family rooms. For adults-only in Sharm, look at Ras Nasrani or Sharks Bay properties.
A sandy beach with a smooth walk-in entry, which is rarer in Sharm than you'd think, plus a pontoon that extends past the safety buoys onto the Temple reef. Reviewers rate the coral highly; the beach itself gets crowded.
Hadaba is at the southern end of Sharm, so expect a longer transfer than Naama Bay or Sharks Bay hotels; sources disagree on the exact distance, so allow 20–25 minutes. A taxi or pre-booked car is straightforward.
Deluxe Family Room, 45 m² for four, if you are travelling with children. Couples can save with Superior Room with Pool View, 35 m². Sea View Room and Deluxe Double Room with Sea View are the 40 m² options facing the water.
Nothing worth walking to. Old Sharm's market and mosque are a short taxi ride, Al Fanar Beach at Ras Um Sid likewise, and Naama Bay's promenade is 10–15 minutes by taxi.
Not from 10 January to 28 February 2027: the hotel says the aqua park will be closed for renovation between those dates. If the slides are the reason for the trip, book outside them; the notice covers only the aqua park, not the pools or the beach.
Luxurious Pool Area: The resort boasts a stunning landscaped pool area with 13 pools, perfect for guests to unwind and enjoy the beautiful surroundings.
Gourmet Dining Options: With 6 restaurants offering a variety of cuisines including Italian and grilled dishes, guests can indulge in a culinary journey during their stay.
Relaxation and Entertainment: From sun loungers by the pools to a well-equipped spa and entertainment options at the bars, Reef Oasis Beach Resort ensures a perfect balance of relaxation and fun for all guests.

Don't count on it. A reviewer who arrived at 5am in September 2026 had an early check-in request refused, waited for the 14:00 check-in and saw families sleeping in the lobby. Another reviewer had reception arrange a room to shower in on departure day. Ask for both in writing before you travel.
The hotel lists free Wi-Fi only in the lobby and some public areas and says nothing about rooms. A Turkish reviewer adds that it does not reach the beach. Buy a local SIM at the airport if you need data all day.
Yes: Kababgi Grill, a Middle Eastern à la carte for mezze, kofta, shish kebab and shish tawouk, open 18:30–21:30 as of October 2026. Turkish reviewers say to book it early; the hotel says opening days change weekly with occupancy and weather. The meal plan varies by rate; you see what is included on the booking screen before you pay.

45 m² for four is the practical choice here: the resort's whole point is children, and the standard Superior rooms take two. Ask for a room near the pools you will actually use; the grounds are large.
Value pick:Superior Room with Pool View — 35 m² for two, a reviewer's own tip for a lower rate close to the pools.

The reef upgrade when the hotel beach feels full: Ras Um Sid's shore wall is a different class from the Temple pontoon, and the sunset is on this side of Sharm.

Hadaba's nearest real town: the mosque, the souk for spices and lanterns, and fish restaurants where you pick from the ice. A change from the buffet.

The promenade evening: an easy coffee stop with a bay view before the market and bars. Worth one trip, not a daily one from here.
