Baron Palace Sahl Hasheesh

Overlooking a stretch of sandy Red Sea shoreline that the hotel has snagged all for itself – including an adults-only patch perfect for kicking back in the sunshine – this place has 'Egyptian paradise' written all over it. The hotel delivers a sweeping sea view, tranquil, palm-dotted gardens, and a sophisticated combination of traditional Arabian architecture and modern, stylish finishes. What more could you ask for? 

The pool scene is just as idyllic as you'd expect. There are four outdoor swim spots to choose from, including a kid-friendly number with splash zones and miniature slides, and relax pool that's tailor-made for low-key days. If action-packed is more your speed, look no further than the abundance of water sports on offer at the beach. With sessions to suit beginners and dab hands alike, across a whole range of activities like windsurfing and diving, water babies are well and truly catered for here.
