We had a fantastic stay at this brand-new hotel, which impressed us from the moment we arrived. The modern décor is stylish and fresh, and the beachfront location is unbeatable, offering beautiful views and a constant and welcome sea breeze. Although we didn’t spend much time on the beach itself, as the sea isn’t ideal for swimming beyond paddling, the nearby jetty offered some decent snorkeling, though it could get quite busy and hectic. Once the hotel’s own jetty is completed, it will definitely enhance the experience for guests. The bedrooms are beautiful and very comfortable. Highly recommend booking a swim-up room. The pools are spotlessly clean, and we especially loved the double loungers in the infinity pool, which were a big hit. One standout feature was the permanent sunshades and pergolas over all the sunbeds…no more battling with umbrellas! The dining experiences were another highlight. The buffet was consistently high in quality, and we really appreciated being able to book five different à la carte dinners throughout our stay. As a bonus, both the beachfront and Italian restaurants also offer unlimited à la carte options for lunch. The food was absolutely delicious, with generous portions and great variety. One of the most memorable moments of our trip was a wonderful horse ride along the beach right in front of the hotel. The nearby stables (just a five-minute drive away) made it easy to arrange, and it’s an experience I would highly recommend. Another good thing that the hotel offer is free transportation in the hotel golf buggies to nearby shops/attractions or just simply for a ride along the beachfront. You can also hire your own self-drive buggies nearby. What truly made our holiday special was the outstanding level of service from all the staff. Everyone from the gardeners and cleaners to the restaurant teams, were friendly, professional, and welcoming.

Amazing NEW hotel with friendly and super helpful stuff, high food quality, comfortable big rooms, adorable beach and sea, i recommend it to everyone! # Food: • The main restaurant offers good food, but during my two-week stay, I felt that it lacked variety. • Breakfast (7:00–10:00): There were always two types of salmon, fresh juices, smoothies, omelets, poached eggs, pancakes, waffles, strawberries, and plenty of fruits. • Lunch (12:30–14:30): Always a choice of meat or fish. The pasta with garlic, shrimp, and cream in the main restaurant is highly recommended. • Splash Bar (12:30–16:30): Great pizza, crispy chicken schnitzel, and fresh salads. • Bay View (12:30–16:00): Highly recommend the salmon sandwich and cheesecake. • Dinner (18:30–21:00): Tasty dishes in the main restaurant and both à la cartes. • Tao à la carte: Delicious soups and sushi. • Bay View à la carte: Highly recommend the baked salmon. • Also, great beachfront restaurants at Jaz Riviera and Iberotel. # Staff • Mr. Mohammed Khaled is a heart of this place. Special thanks to him – a highly professional manager who solved my issue within 10 minutes. • Thanks to Abdullah (reception) for the warm welcome and farewell gifts. • Excellent staff: • Alaa (Bay View): Attentive waiter. • Mahmoud Khali (main restaurant): Friendly and polite. • Mahmoud (lobby bar): Quick service, remembers your drink preferences. • Isabelle and Amélie (animation team): they both are friendly and amazing. # Territory • Green, well-maintained, with multiple pools and a large jacuzzi, plenty of sun loungers. • Nice evening walks between Jaz Riviera and Iberotel, but a nearby construction site makes it less pleasant. • On-site: pharmacy, mini-market, souvenirs, ATM (withdrawal fee: $4). • Diving center on the beach. # Rooms • Spacious, modern rooms with soft linens and comfortable pillows. • Glass bottled water, kettle, tea, coffee, paid minibar, iron available on request.

The room was spacious and comfortable, and it was always kept clean. Breakfast was plentiful and served perfectly. The hotel had a great atmosphere, mainly thanks to the friendly and helpful staff. Special thanks to Ahmed Achref for his consistently pleasant service, and to Karim at the reception for his warm hospitality. The hotel's location—right in front of the cable ski lake—is unique, and the seating on the sandy shore was exceptional.

Absolutely all staff were so very helpful and thoughtful. (Thank you.) Nothing seemed to phase them. Carefully designed, buildings with wonderful outlook. Do take some time to examine the fossilised corals etc in the stone from which the place is built! Meals were always freshly prepared, beautifully presented and plentiful, with the option of seconds if need be. Vegetarian food was excellent, as was, I understand from friends, Vegan, and meat. The whole site was kept meticulously clean, including the beach. There are gardens with indigenous plants, including those that attract butterflies and moths. Also a formal fresh water feature, the home of numerous dragonflies: a surprise bonus. The infinity pool is generously sized. Security appears to be excellent, as are safety features eg fire hoses, emergency exit signs, pool Life Guard. Outdoor lighting at night is adequate for safety, but angled downwards, so star gazing is possible. The House Reef is easily accessible from a pier a short walk from the Lodge. The Emperor Divers facility which abuts the Lodge gives options of Shore and Boat diving.

    This was a recommendation from an Egyptian friend and because i trust his taste I went for it despite finding my favorite franchise within same area and i cannot express how thankful I am for choosing this hotel because it's an experience and shame to spend less than one week in it. I had the best welcoming from Mr. Said at the reception and best companionship and assistance from Mrs. Radwa she was very supportive on every request and when we have none she would check if we needed anything. Last Mr. Adel was very understanding and supportive during our checkout, and wouldn't be an unforgettable experience without these guys. Now about the resport, it's a real five start and i believe it stands out from other hotels in the area, I've been in so many places with similar services in multiple countries but I'd place this resort on thop without hesitation for it combines the outstanding facility amazing room views, multiple choices of food (do not miss Tajine restaurant prepared by the amazing Chef Souad), beaches, lagoons & pools for every taste. I know I'm coming back and I know where I am staying, so I do recommend it to all.

    Our experience at Pickalbatros White Beach Resort was nothing short of amazing. The property is beautifully designed, with immaculate landscaping and stunning pools that create a relaxing and luxurious atmosphere. The rooms were spacious, spotless, and tastefully decorated, offering breathtaking views of the Red Sea. What stood out the most was the exceptional hospitality. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable and enjoyable, always greeting us with warm smiles and attentive service. The variety of dining options was impressive, with delicious food catering to all tastes and dietary preferences. The location is perfect—situated right on a pristine beach with crystal-clear waters. It was great for both relaxing and enjoying water sports. The resort also offers a range of activities for families and couples alike, from lively entertainment programs to tranquil spots for unwinding. Overall, Pickalbatros White Beach Resort is a top-notch destination for anyone looking to experience the beauty of Hurghada in comfort and style. We can’t wait to come back!

    The resort is beautifully designed, they have lots of flowers and palm trees that really are taken care of. the rooms are spacious, the cleaning couldn’t be better and the staff is very attentive if you tip. The food was delicious and a lot of variety, even at breakfast time. Every evening they have a different specific cuisine so you can’t get bored. we also tried both of the restaurants: vista mare and the fish restaurant and both were delicious. I can’t understand how people can complain about the food, as we read online in Egypt you can really have problems with the food but here it’s not the case. As for the animation, the animation team is fun, we participated almost in every activity and we really enjoyed it. The resort also has a jogging trail that we ran every day. We will definitely come again here because we really enjoyed our stay. Thank you Cleopatra & thank you to all the people that made our stay feel so pleasant. Hakuna matata!

    Attention to details, guests were made feel at home by the caring staff which was extraordinary focused to serve customers. Really a big thank you to the fantastic Oberoi staff! We really felt cared for by everyone. They even prepared special food for our ten months old baby. The manager came to check on us regularly and everyone made us feel at home. Also the quiet, beautiful Nubian style wide spread out property was wonderful. We valued having privacy on the beach, no hassle and pure relaxation in a calming atmosphere. Rare to find such places like the Oberoi around Hurghada that is packed with mostly massive all inclusive loud animation tourist hubs. Def will stay again at the Oberoi when visiting Hurghada! We already look forward to it ☺️!!

The food variety is great with different themes every night. They have light entertainment event night during dinner. The resort is located by the airport and on the city walk, which is convenient proximity.

    Hurghada is a very busy place and popular with all nationalities. I was diving every day so 8 hours a day at sea. I didn't use the shopping centre this time but have done so in the past and it was great. It used to be that you would get harassed continually by traders but not so much these days they really have backed off. I know my daughters found that intimidating when they were younger but today its fine.

    I love Marsa Alam and Abu Dabab most, as far as the Red Sea goes. My favourite place of all time is the Concorde Moreen Hotel, with the Hilton coming a strong second. We only ate at the hotels, because our time was limited. I used the taxi service offered online by Booking.com, which I found to be very efficient and reasonable. But I am also a seasoned traveller in Egypt and do not find it difficult to negotiate with taxi drivers. (It can be very useful to ask Chat GPT first what an average trip should cost you, if you are unsure, and then use that as a guideline for your negotiations.) It's an amazing experience to go out on a boat, but picking the right one can make the difference. I will be leaving my review on our experience separately (as it warrants a whole story on its own :))

    Some places offer excellent takeaway food.

    Some places offer excellent takeaway food. There is a public beach a little further away (a short walk across a small desert area) with exceptional underwater flora and fauna. Bring shoes for walking in the water. Please stay above or near the coral (personally, I didn't know there were risks to swimming too far from the reefs, namely sharks. But I didn't see any. On the other hand, there were some exceptional fish! Port Ghalib is a tourist spot but much, much quieter than Hurghada. If someone tries to sell you something, just say ‘La, chokram’ with a smile and everything will be fine. Don't forget to tip a little, as Egyptians earn very little (around €400 per month for a family of four). For activities, I recommend Royal Sea Tours (royalsea-tours.com), who are really great.

    Very quiet town, simple and the sea is amazing.

    Very quiet town, simple and the sea is amazing. You can swim anywhere. No so much facilities ( food places, supermarkets,..) and pharmacies located around hotels. Weather is hot, limited gas stations and road is not preferable to be taken at night.

    The sea was beautiful.

    The sea was beautiful. Unfortunately strong winds kept me from going into the sea. We stayed mostly in the lagoons. There was no access to sea from the beach, only from the pier. The life guards were good and attentive.

    Very nice and friendly locals!

    Very nice and friendly locals! Not many tourists, no aggressive salesmen. The city is not rich, so expect some garbage lying around. Prices are generally very low, not adjusted for tourists (except at nearby hotels). We found only a few restaurants, but many fastfood places.
