What guests think

At Mövenpick Resort El Sokhna, guests praise the beachfront setting and views, frequently enjoy the food, and often find staff friendly, while repeated concerns include dated rooms and facilities, occasional cleanliness issues with insects, and uneven service experiences.

The resort’s quiet atmosphere suits relaxation, though several guests wished for more evening entertainment. Its location is convenient for trips from Cairo, but there is little to do nearby without a drive. Travellers seeking a calm, scenic escape by the sea may feel most at home here.

This is a lovely resort with great amenities and food, however, it is probably better suited to families or young party goers than couples seeking respite and romance.

Overall it was a good stay! The superior room we stayed in the main building was just ok, it would do with some refurb as some tiles were broken/lifting up when walking and the bathroom for sure needed a freshen up (sink glass moving, silicone mouldy, toilet & bidet chipped). The dinner was ok, would have loved to see more vegetarian/fish options and perhaps some more international cuisines. Breakfast was good, fresh crepes/pancakes made in front of guests would have been appreciated and also extending it until 10:30/11am as some people would not wake up early on holiday! Some sun lounges at the beach were super old and need replacing and it would be nice not to have AC on in the lobby and corridors on 24/7 when there’s no need. It would also be nice to get some free snacks & fruit + water throughout the day.

Excellent hotel, amazing views, and great service. Restaurant staff are so friendly and accommodating. Excellent variety of food each day. Big thanks to Chef Hany, Chef Islam at the Sushi Station and Chef Mohammed at the Pasta Station, yum! Rooms were always well kept thanks to Mohamed Saleh. Rania at the Spa was great (Egyptian massage and Moroccan Hammam). Will definitely visit again. Great family vacation spot!

Beautiful hotel, gorgeous beach,azur blue water with beautiful sandy beach and mountains in the back ground are breathtaking. landscape with multiple fountains..Food was delicious with different vareities every day. staff was very courteous and helpful. Room was very comfortable bed is very comfortable. nice views from the balcony, weather was amazing.The only only issues were few flies, which was addressed with management and they said is a temporary situation caused by the surrounding desert and they are dealingwith it. the other issue was overcharging for items we thought were complementary, which should have been labled with a price. there was no such list of charges in the room Otherwise we had an amazing time

This hotel is a absolute dream come true! After traveling in nothing but dirt, mountains and construction you end up at a gorgeous 5 star resort. The rooms are all nice and great views. The Red Sea is perfect for swimming and water sports. There are cabana style areas with umbrellas and chairs. Food and bar service to the beach. The pool is the best part with a swim up bar with food service and cocktails, infinity pool and the back drop is a spectacular view of the mountains! I would return to Egypt if only for this location. Oh yes, the food was the best dinner I had on my whole trip!

Demotivated and grumpy staff who procrastinate and act negligently, seemingly to pressure guests into tipping. They lied about fixing my AC after I called them five times. I ended up spending my vacation on a sweaty bed, getting bitten by bugs on every exposed part of my body. This is by far the worst experience I’ve ever had from a hotel that claims to be five stars. I’m a well-traveled guest, and this stay completely failed to meet even basic hospitality standards.

The hotel is satisfactory in terms of its location and amenities. However, I believe it could benefit from some renovations. For instance, the television in the room was outdated, and the remote control was damaged. Additionally, I was unable to connect my Apple TV device to the television in the room. When I contacted the room service, they informed me that the television was an older model and that they were unable to connect the Apple TV device. While the television channel selection is not particularly impressive, it is sufficient for a short stay of two nights.

I have visited the hotel from the 8th of June till the 11th of June 2025 ... on a family trip. One of my family members has allergy from sun lite my wife went to the front disk " Called Hagar in her morning shift on the 10th of June " asking to give us a pharmacy number that can deliver the medicine to us. She gave us a number, but it was not working so we asked her again for her support she answered us in a very rude way " i don't have any other number". She didn't even bother herself searching for another pharmacy number. My wife googled a pharmacy nearby and made the order by herself. On the next day the 11th of June our departure day, she was also in her shift i have requested to send me the bellman on 10 am because i was in a hurry to checkout her answer was "you need to remined me before you need the bellman by 5 min, cause i don't guarantee that i will remember your request". I have submitted a complain to her supervisor to take action cause such a team member will spoil the efforts done by her collogues to satisfy their guests. Thanks Mohamed el Badrawy
