Rooms are very spacious and sea view is perfect. Food is really good, Breakfast has a wide varieties and few restaurant are available for lunch & dinner with pre reservation required. Hotels wasn’t very busy but the entire service are very friendly and willing to help.
COVID safety measures are well kept in place. We tried the Spa for massage treatments and we loved it.
The resort is clean, beautiful, well run and full of things to do and see. Food is fantastic. Staff are so so friendly it puts you to shame for not smiling at all of them all the time! We felt the Aldau was better than the water-park Steigenberger opposite as it was quieter and we could visit the water park at any time with a 2-minute walk.
We enjoyed our days at the sea, which was absolutely clean and shallow. Excellent for those, who do not expect adventures in the sea 🙂 Families with kids and adults and seniors are well divided, so that all of them do not meet on regular basis. I am a coffee lover and the coffee in the main restaurant is just basic.
On the other hand, all bars and also the beach bar offers absolutely fantastic Turkish coffee or espresso made “with love”. Our “private” service Ahmed Mohamed, with his fluent German made our stay at the beach special. We had a relaxed week and enjoyed it very much.
The hotel is amazing, with a private beach to the beautiful Red Sea, a very beautiful swimming pool, a wonderful garden and many possibilities to spend the time in the most interesting way.
The food is excellent and the staff is very friendly, always ready to satisfy any customer need. Special thanks to El Nagar Mahmoud who has taken very good care of me and my friend. We also appreciated the sport activities, especially the incredible energy of Rio from AcquaZumba..
We are definitely going to come back in the same hotel which looks like a paradise.

Main Restaurant which we used for breakfast and dinner once – Good variety, very good quality and impeccable service. The restaurant on the beach, Alex – that’s a bomb. The dinner which was served to us could be easily compared to a 5 star restaurant in Europe. Pool side, bars, entertainment – I can’t fault anything. The service indeed is the thing that takes this Hotel to another lever. I’ve stayed before in both Aqua Magic and Al Dau and this Hotel is no different in the level of hospitality and service offered. Therefore my big applause and gratitude to all the staff.

The hotel is immaculate and service outstanding. Mr. Tamar runs a tight ship and his team work tirelessly to ensure the highest standards. Special mention to Sobhy in the pool bar who, with his infectious smile and excellent service ensures you leave happy everyday. Mado and Ramy on the entertainment team work extremely hard despite an often difficult task given the variety of group types and tastes.
The programme for Eid weekend was outstanding and watching a live cabaret show inside the pool was a highlight. Another special event was the beautiful moonlit beach dinner we had at the Alex restaurant, staff went above expectations to create an evening of romance and exquisite food. We came as strangers, left as friends and await our next stay with anticipation.
The moment we entered this hotel we totally forgot reality and enjoyed an amazing time full of ultimate relaxation. The stylish rooms and lovely design of restaurants and the reception really impressed us. We absolutely felt a real luxury experience with fresh food and drinks, served by the attentive staff with pleasure. Very nice relaxing music around the pool and beach with lively atmosphere from daily entertainment shows. Thumbs up to MADO and the resident dj RAMY these, guys made everyone’s holiday!

The food is lovely, fresh & great choice at the buffet restaurant, you also have a choice of, Chinese, Indian, lebanese, Italian & fish restaurant (extra charge but worth it). There’s is entertainment most nights but we just enjoyed going for walks to the pier & old town. The beach is fabulous, with great service nothing is to much trouble. If you like snorkeling, grab your stuff & walk to the pier you want be disappointed.
There is building work along the coastal line, as new hotels & apartments are being built. This didn’t bother use,bit certainly didn’t affect our stay (noise wise). Overall a great place to relax & recharge, yes there are a lot of couples but I’d be happy & feel safe going here on my own. With several books loaded on my Kindle, enjoying the food, water, sun & peace.
One of its unique selling point [USP} is the beach area which is first class as is the staff who manage and operate the beach it would be remiss of me not to mention them they are very polite, helpful, caring, kind and funny, that is Ibrahim, sabry, Khalid and Mohammed were the guys that looked after us, provided daily clean beach towels, cleaned our sunglasses and kept the whole area spotless
The beach bar provide drinks on the beach, Amr you were wonderful always a smile, always greeting every one and within one day you knew what we liked to drink and when, I never had to think!! Perfect.
Its other USP has got to be the staff you are all fantastic and you all deserve an award.
