I would choose Sunrise in Sharm, not even because of the occupancy, but because of the weather. It will be colder and windier in Hurghada than in Sharm (however, you did not specify the dates).
Well, according to the reviews on the site, you can understand about the occupancy (there is nothing new at all about Jazz Makadi Oasis).
Prices at the end of January are almost the same, so decide)
аватар Marsyanchik
Thank you, I'm planning a trip for the beginning of April.

For April, definitely Oasis. Madinat Makadi is beyond competition. Hurgadinsk is bursting in comparison with Sharm, and in April you will not be bored all the more. Service food in Oasis, even with low occupancy, is many times better than in Diamond
аватар Hot-Prices
Ahhh, then everything will be fine with the weather, of course) But the prices are 3 times higher (this is so far).
April occupancy is still hard to predict. The difficulty here is that the hotels are located in different resorts, and first of all, you need to choose a resort, and then a hotel in this resort.
аватар klichko
April is the season, Madinat will certainly not be empty. The oasis has long been at a good price because of the 2nd line, although it is very conditional. The price will be max 30% more (I tend to 20%) I flew in January and April, there were no such balloons as close as right now. Accordingly, in April there will also be sweet prices (as for April). And in early April, you can finally catch a ball with the export of vacations
аватар Marsyanchik
Thank you, I was also inclined in favor of Makadi Oasis, especially since I was there 10 years ago and everything was great. This summer we were in Concorde and got a little bored (90% of the Arabs), although there are no complaints about the hotel.
аватар klichko
Sorry, I just saw the registration ... package matters do not concern you. If the hotel prices are comparable, what is there to think. Diamond is just teeming with locals, but they don’t respect the Iberians because they don’t dump the zhrachka in basins and you can’t go wild. Moreover, the Iberians don’t do discounts for local hellish people and the audience there is great
PS. You are honored that with 90% of the locals you manage not to curse the hotel and all its surroundings ... we can’t live like that (c)

Comparing these two hotels is incorrect.
Since these hotels are from completely different quality categories.
Sunrise Diamond - "village and people", a crowd on a pontoon, a windy bay, tasteless food with poisoning.
Madinat Oasis - intellectuals from Germany, a choice of delicious food, a calm bay.
аватар Marsyanchik
Thanks again, but for clarification, the hotel is now owned by the Egyptian chain Jaz, which could affect the quality. For example, Royal Grand Sharm used to be Iber too. And now it’s a budget hotel, bought out by I don’t remember which operator ...
But, the conclusions are drawn and the decision is made. :)

For Marsyanchik Well, I don't know. at a height, and there are very few locals, many foreigners (Germans, French).

Of course Sunrise in Sharm. Hotel occupancy is great. Accordingly, all services are complete. And if there are no people, then no one will strain you especially. Because it's not for anyone. We rested from 22.12.2016 to 30.12. There were many people. Rest is great. And this is all nonsense about poor nutrition and poisoning. We were with a 5 year old child. Everything was great. Let them not talk. Service is great too

Those who are satisfied with their vacation in Sunrise could also relax in any other more economical hotel for 200-300 dollars cheaper)
In general, Sunrise is for those who like to overpay for the lowest quality of rest and do not want to know that other tourists have a better rest for this price)

"Those who are satisfied with the rest in Sunrise, they could also have a rest in any other more economical hotel for 200-300 dollars cheaper"
agent_borabora can you name a couple of hotels that are not worse than Sunrise in terms of quality of service and food, but cheaper. And at the same time the same quiet bay with a short pontoon. Which ones can you see? I mean Sharm.

"can you name a couple/three hotels that are not worse than Sunrise in terms of quality of service and food, but cheaper. And at the same time the same quiet bay with a short pontoon. Which ones can you see? I mean Sharm."
Quiet cove? Are you sure about Sunrise Diamond? The bay has never been quiet there.
аватар zaeugene
agent_borabora is quiet compared to Nabka :)
аватар agent_borabora
The price for Sunrise Diamond Beach for the next week is 640 USD. for 7 nights for 2.
If you do not take Nabka, then the same hotels in terms of level, but with advantages:
AA Grand Oasis Resort $510 - same as Diamond, but cheaper.
Sonesta Beach $523 - near Naama and the reef is more interesting.
Island Garden Resort $554 - near Soho.
Vera Club Queen Beach Sharm $558 - in the same location as Diamond, but cheaper.
Coral Beach Tiran Resort $561 - the reef is prettier.
Club El Faraana Reef $577 - the most sheltered bay in Sharm from the wind with beautiful coral.
Dreams Beach Resort $582 - in the same location as Diamond, but cheaper.
Royal Grand Sharm $588 - in the same place as Diamond, a large beautiful area.
Otium Hotel Amphoras $.593 - a hotel that surpasses the previous ones in all respects: updated rooms, a wide beach, a large area, and most importantly, delicious and high-quality food.
Why choose Diamond?

agent_borabora thank you very much.

We are going to Egypt to watch beautiful corals and fish (we have already been on all excursions). In Hurghada, corals and fish are very bad, not to say that they do not exist at all. Sunrise Diamond has beautiful coral, short pontoons (it is also convenient to use the pontoon of a nearby hotel) and a rather calm bay (at least in October). Nearby is Il Mercato Street with shopping arcades, etc. and the entertainment center "1001 Nights". It definitely won't be boring there. The food at the Sunrise Diamond Hotel is quite normal, and the reviews about it are much better than about all the hotels listed in the previous answer.
The only thing is to take a sea view room on the 2nd floor on the left side of the hotel (if you look at the sea), otherwise it will be noisy (there is a hotel plan on the Internet).

"Sunrise Diamond has beautiful coral"
- exactly the same coral in Otium Hotel Amphoras .593 USD, Vera Club Queen Beach Sharm 558 USD, Dreams Beach Resort 582 USD and Royal Grand Sharm 588 USD, which are cheaper;
"short pontoons (it is also convenient to use the pontoon of a nearby hotel)"
- exactly the same length as in Otium Hotel Amphoras .593 USD, Vera Club Queen Beach Sharm 558 USD, Dreams Beach Resort 582 USD and Royal Grand Sharm 588 USD, which are cheaper;
"rather windless bay (at least in the month of October). "
- exactly the same bay as in Otium Hotel Amphoras .593 USD, Vera Club Queen Beach Sharm 558 USD, Dreams Beach Resort 582 USD and Royal Grand Sharm 588 USD, which are cheaper;
"Nearby is Il Mercato street with shopping malls, etc. and the entertainment center "1001 nights"
- exactly the same location as Otium Hotel Amphoras $593, Vera Club Queen Beach Sharm $558, Dreams Beach Resort $582 and Royal Grand Sharm $588, which are cheaper;

Why Sunrise?

"The food at the Sunrise Diamond Hotel is quite normal, and the reviews about it are much better than about all the hotels listed in the previous answer."
- sure? Have you compared?
There is definitely no dietary table in Sunrise, food has no taste. I don't know much about poisoning.
Reviews are sorted by the moderator. I advise you to read in the Claims section. This is where descriptions of real situations fall.
And it's all for a lot of money!
But the guaranteed quality of food, the taste and the choice of dietary and baby food are definitely in Otium, which is cheaper.
So why pay more for Sunrise?

rested a week ago in Sunrise dimond. The territory is beautiful and well-groomed, the animators are great, the reef is probably not bad. But!!!!!! The food is terrible!!!! As a result, an intestinal infection and three days in the room without leaving. Fortunately, the insurance covered the call of the doctor and the treatment prescribed by him. Be careful when choosing excursions. The promises of the guides will not live up to your expectations, everything will be much worse. Also, they will not tell you that you need to take water with you and you will have to buy it for 3-5 euros for a small bottle. It is better not to enter into an argument with the hotel staff, as you may come across rudeness and feel their temperament and attitude towards our women. February was very windy. A la card is better not to take. We chose the Indian restaurant. I love Indian food, but this was something... fufufu. Better to have dinner in the main restaurant. Employees may ask you for a phone number so that they can write a laudatory review on the desired site through your account :) . This was my first holiday in Egypt. Now only Turkey! Unfortunately, my vacation in the country of the pharaohs could not be saved by the beautiful sea and corals :(
аватар Yu.Yu
For nmaksimenko. That's why there are reviews and travel truth in particular. If you are traveling for the first time in the country, you must carefully select a hotel so as not to spoil the impression of the country as a whole. And then my relative also went to Sunny Day in Hurghada, she spat so much from Egypt and did not understand why I love Egypt.
аватар agent_borabora
Draw conclusions about the whole country from the wrong hotel? Moreover, the hotel, one of the worst in Egypt.
This is the same as saying: “I don’t like Zhytomyr, because I got poisoned at the station with pies from Aunt Klava.”
