Hotel description
The Four Seasons Resort at Sharm El Sheikh is captivating with its village feel and enjoys a splendid position leading down to the shores of the Red Sea, with views to the island of Tiran in the distance. The distinctly Arabian flavour of the architecture complements the proximity of desert and dunes, mountains and coral reefs. Lush terraces of palm trees descend towards the sea, with a welcome cool provided by fountains and shaded courtyards.
The Four Seasons Resort has a superb range of opulently furnished bedrooms, all of which benefit from a private balcony or terrace and many have a sea view. The resort’s Arabian flavour adds an exotic touch to the rooms with arches and carved wooden panels. The two-bedroom suites are especially suited to families, sleeping up to two adults and three children and with a full kitchenette. The Four Seasons Resort’s extensive facilities ensure that both adults and children are well catered for: there is an excellent choice of restaurants that serve a range of Mediterranean, Moroccan and Lebanese cuisine, a Beauty and Wellness Spa with thirteen treatment rooms, and children aged between five and twelve years old can enjoy the daily activities that are organised at the Kids For All Seasons Centre, such as arts and crafts, beach games and storytelling. Tents are draped over sun beds, providing a welcoming space to relax around the three swimming pools and on the beach, and chilled towels, a facial spritz service and iced water are provided hourly. The Four Seasons Resort’s excellent standards of service also include 24-hour in-room dining, one-hour pressing and overnight laundry. This is an excellent resort, with a most extensive range of facilities that ensure both relaxation and enjoyment.
