Sunrise Select Diamond Beach Resort
Things to know
before you go
Sunrise Diamond Beach Resort is a true 24-hour all-inclusive Red Sea resort with a private beach, aqua park, kids club, and extensive bar and restaurant footprint.
It is strongest for families, snorkelers, and travelers who want a large resort with many room upgrades.
The reef setting is a major advantage, but it also means beach entry is not uniformly soft-sand and shallow.
Hidden tips
Choose a swim-up or Posh Club suite if the room experience matters as much as the beach.
Pack water shoes for reef and mixed-entry beach zones.
Verify imported-spirit and room-service details if those are important to the booking.
Things guests wish they had known
The strongest beach value is the reef and snorkeling rather than a simple sandy walk-in everywhere.
The official plan includes local alcoholic beverages; travelers expecting top-shelf imported spirits should verify upgrade options.
Posh Club and swim-up categories materially change the room experience.
