The Oberoi Beach Resort

The Oberoi Beach Resort is pure luxury – a sprawling resort made of up domed buildings in a charming North African style. Stretching out across 48 acres along the shore of the Red Sea, you’ll be amazed at what’s on offer here.

Step out of the hotel and within two minutes you’ll be at the beach – which is exclusively for hotel guests. This part of the world is known for its spectacular diving opportunities, and with an on-site dive centre, you can experience the coral reef and marine life of the Red Sea first-hand. If you prefer to observe the sea from above, the hotel offers private boat cruises around the nearby islands. Go at sunset for stunning views of the Red Sea Mountains.

If you need a break from all the activity, the pool is a great place to chill out. For a truly relaxing experience, head to the spa and enjoy a signature treatment. There’s daily yoga and stretching, too. If you’re travelling with little ones, they’ll be well taken care of from the moment you arrive. Kids receive a special welcome letter with colouring books and their own bathrobes and slippers, plus there’s a dedicated kids’ pool and activity centre with play areas.

Expect to eat well here. The main restaurant is a classy à la carte affair where nothing is too much trouble for the staff. For some authentic Indian eats, Zaafran is open for dinner, and your meal is accompanied with a traditional soundtrack from live musicians. By the pool you’ll find the Pergola serving up light bites and lunches with a sweeping view of the sea.

For a sophisticated drink – or even a cigar – the bar is the place to be. After a busy day take some time to unwind over a cocktail before heading off to the comfortable surroundings of your room.
