Every resort below carries a five-star rating, ranked by real guest ratings, our luxury scores, and how much the plan includes. Tap through for photos, the included-versus-extra picture, and pricing, and see our Egypt guide for the entry rules, which are easier for a Sinai resort than a mainland one.

Plan the trip
Picking the resort is half the work; our Egypt travel guide covers the rest: when to go, weather month by month, safety and entry requirements, and how the areas differ.
How this ranking works
Every list on this site draws from the same catalog: resorts we've individually researched, with the all-inclusive fine print read so you don't have to. The order weighs verified guest ratings, what's genuinely included at the base rate, and how each property performs on the thing this list is about: here, egypt five-star.
The seal next to a resort is its Palmprint: our 0–10 grade for how well it delivers on this list's promise, the same mark you'll find on its full profile. The details of what we weigh, and what disqualifies a resort outright, live in how we score. Lists are re-reviewed as ratings and policies change; this one was last checked September 2026.
Frequently asked questions
Where are Egypt's best luxury resorts?
Sharm el-Sheikh for reef-front five-stars with the clearest water and the shortest walk to the snorkelling. The Red Sea bays near Hurghada for self-contained, low-rise luxury on a sweep of sand. Marsa Alam for the diving and for a coast that has barely been built on. Hurghada town itself leans to value rather than luxury.
