Top 10 All-Inclusive Resorts in Egypt

·True all-inclusive product

Steigenberger Resort Alaya is an adults-only all-inclusive on the Red Sea at Marsa Alam, for couples who want the reef and a swim-up room. The plan covers nearly everything, the transfer of about 10 minutes is as short as one gets in Egypt, and the resort sits on a stretch of coast where it is the only thing there is. The reef is the reason to come; a town to walk to is not on offer.

·Extensive official all-inclusive concept.

Rixos Premium Seagate is the family resort of Sharm El Sheikh, for parents who want a water park of 23 slides and a private beach with a reef. The food is rated among the best on the Red Sea. It is about 15 minutes from the airport, with thirteen restaurants, eight bars and seven pools, and a guest rating of 4.9 from 61,355 reviews, which is as large a verdict as this site holds. It is not a quiet resort and does not try to be.

·Very strong review volume and service sentiment.

SUNRISE Arabian Beach Resort is a family all-inclusive in Sharm El Sheikh, for families who want a reef, eight restaurants and a nine-minute transfer. That drive from the airport is the shortest on this site. It is a five-star with a private beach, heated pools including an adults-only Relax Pool and a children's pool with a slide, and a dining list of one buffet and seven a la carte restaurants running from Indian to Greek. Sea entry is reef rather than sand, which is the fact to settle first.

·True all-inclusive product

JAZ Makadina is a 270-room resort on the Red Sea at Makadi Bay, and it is smaller and calmer than the megaresorts either side of it. The beach mixes sand for swimming with coral you can snorkel from the shore, which is the main reason to be here and a reason to pack reef shoes. Two pools, one heated for winter and one for children, plus free access to the Makadi Water World park next door, which is where the family case is made.

·Strong adults-only quiet-beach positioning.

·Strong Red Sea beachfront setting.

Baron Palace sits on the Red Sea at Sahl Hasheesh, a purpose-built bay south of Hurghada that is quieter than the town's nightlife strips. Six pools, heated through the winter, a children's pool and a swim-up bar cover the part of the year when the Red Sea itself feels brisk, and the house reef is close enough to snorkel from the beach. The 9.0 we give it is one of the highest scores in our Egyptian catalog.

·Strong adults-only romance positioning.

·Adults-only beachfront setting.

·True 24-hour all-inclusive

·Excellent house reef
