Solymar Naama Bay

I arrived around 6 pm but the room was not ready. The receptionist tried to bully me into going to dinner first to cover the fact that the room was not ready. When I asked why the room was not ready the manager came and offered a room upgrade. The upgraded room was lousy and I can not imagine what would the original room would be like. The next morning I wanted to go to the beach. I saw the listed shuttle schedule and I timed my self to catch the 9;30am shuttle. I got there a few minutes early and asked one of the employees if this is the shuttle going to beach and he confirmed. When I arrived at the beach I was refused entry because I did not have a ticket. No body mentioned that I need to get a ticket to enter the beach. I took a look at the beach and was not worth going to any way. Too many security guys interrogating any body who look non European. The reception area is tiny with malfunctioning currency change machine. Food of average quality but most of the guests are the kind of tourists who look like they never seen food before and who never miss a meal.

Great resort in Naama bay!

The hotel is perfectly situated for a relaxing holiday but close enough to the vibrant city centre. The staff are incredible and go over and above anything I’ve experienced before. Thoroughly enjoyed this trip despite sleazyjets best efforts to ruin it.

Stayed for 5 nights, Staff are extremely friendly and helpful. I felt very comfortable staying at the hotel. Breakfast buffet: lots of choice for cereals, breads, pastries, and my favourite is live cooking such as omelettes, fried eggs, pancakes to order. Dinner buffet: lots of choice for meats and vegetarian, live cooking Pasta for children. Staffs are working very hard to maintain garden and keep pool area clean. However, there are some areas that need to be improved: the bath room requires a renovation, in my room the shower tray is very small no space to move around, to get hot water for showering is to keep it running for a while before it get hot. Wi-Fi is very poor and only available at reception area. Hotel has a free minivan, every 1 hour from hotel to the beach & VV. you will require to get a voucher from receptionist for free desk chair on the beach. Hotel/Beach: 1st transfer is at 0830, the last one is at1430. Beach/Hotel: 1st transfer is at 0845-1445 and the last transfer is at 1630. Note that a minivan is base on first come first served basis can take max 12paxs 1 seat in front with the driver. Overall I did enjoy and felt safe staying at Solymar Naama Bay. Definitely will stay here again.

The rooms are old and outdated. The rooms aren't cleaned correctly and are dirty
