Back to you for help, need a hotel with a good reef
Good afternoon, this is where I always get good travel advice, help me decide this time.
We fly with my husband in mid-May from Krasnodar, for 11-12 nights. Budget 100tr.
This trip is special - a gift for my husband. We will celebrate in Egypt his DR and the anniversary of our wedding. He loves snorkeling and has recently received a diving certificate, so first of all he needs a beautiful hotel reef. Desirable first line, five or good 4, quality food, service, large beautiful territory and that the hotel is not in the desert.
So far, I have looked after the Hilton Sharm Waterfalls Resort, but I want to compare it with something else.
In general, I want a magical romantic getaway (since we haven’t seen each other for 8 months!!!))
Yes, animation, clubs, alcohol are not important to us. Hope it helps, thanks in advance!

Look at Farana Club Hotel, Shores Amphoras (after a complete renovation), Sheraton, Hilton Sharks Bay, Concord, Island View, Experience Sea Breeze. note
Gave different hotels for different tastes
Although the continentals have the most beautiful reef, the service and food there are very mediocre.

Look also at Sentido Reef Oasis Senses Resort 5 * or Reef Oasis Beach Resort 5 *, you might like it if you "fit in" for the money. Also good hotels and a good reef.

Oh, how many options, thanks to everyone, I will study.
Why didn't anyone say anything about Hilton waterfalls? Is it much inferior to the above?
I initially chose Hadaba because of the walking distance to civilization. Since we are not going on long excursions, there will be a desire to explore the surroundings.

Nothing was said about Waterfalls, because. You mentioned it yourself :) And so it also fits here.
The Royal chain is terrible with its hotels. It's completely free if it costs and you don't need anything other than the sea.

New, 2015 met in Sharm, the hotel "SIVA SHARM resort & spa", I recommend to look. First line, solid 4-ka, beautiful, well-groomed territory and, most importantly, a good, hotel reef. To the promenade street - 10 minutes on foot, i.e. will be somewhere to go in the evening.

Island View, Concord, Hilton Shark are located in the same bay, so there are no problems with wind, current and high tides. Near SOHO as for going out into civilization. The reefs are beautiful, not deep. There may be problems with sunbeds in Island View (two hotels on the same beach ), there are no such problems in Hilton Shark, a multi-level beach (although there are also two hotels on the same beach). They remembered the Continental - the reefs in both the Garden and the Plaza are beautiful, in the second it is possible to enter the sea both from the pantone and from the shore. About diving - my opinion is that sometimes it is better to dive in a place of relaxation than to go to Tiran Island. HAVE A GOOD HOLIDAY. TAKE YOUR GOOD MOOD AND EVERYTHING WILL BE GOOD.

So, I studied all the hotels you suggested.
Shores Amphoras, SIVA SHARM, Sunrise Diamond Beach, Sultan Gardens - drop out, no departures or no seats for anyone on our dates.
Reef Oasis Beach and Sentido Reef Oasis are SUPER! But they drop in price. More than 160 tr. (((
Sheraton 73t.r - bald territory, bad reviews
Renaissance golden view 88t.r. - not really. too many stairs
Experience Sea Breeze 84tr - too small
Of those that I liked and seem to fit:
hilton sharks bay
Melia Sinai
Desole Pyramisa
Sierra Resort 5*
These are the ones in Sharks Bay. Most liked the Sierra. But it confuses me that there is a desert around these hotels, Soho is still just shops. And to the city, market, etc. go far away. Well, the airport is too close.
Hilton Sharm Waterfalls in Ras Um El Sid is alone so far.
In general, you must first choose the area - either Sharks Bay or Ras Um el Sid, and then the hotel.
Help, I think I'm even more confused)))))))) I just haven't been to these bays before, but only to Naama Bay itself.

I will intervene in the discussion. Siera is one of the cheapest but the hotel is shit ..... and the hotel itself, and even more so as an option for snorkeling, is not suitable. Vacationing in Island View. when he was still Sunrise. I love the snork myself and dedicate most of my time to it. In Sieora, it is also the former Savita, a short pontoon, almost always a wave along the wall of corals, the coral is the most killed in this beautiful bay. the wall almost immediately goes to great depths, along the reef there are fragments of rocks and concrete that fell during the construction of the hotel. I myself always choose a new hotel in a new bay for the sake of snorkeling. In Sharm, 6 hotels and bays were studied, which swam 2-4 km every morning. Let the husband read my reviews in all there is a big piece about the snork and choose for himself. On this forum, I did not see wishes about the Farana Reef Club. A good bay and reef within walking distance from all the delights of the resort. If you sail towards the bay of Sharm el Maya, then it is even more beautiful. A very impressive pool. You can see more expensive hotel options in this bay

"But it confuses me that there is a desert around these hotels"
Not quite right - there are other hotels around these hotels.
"And to the city, market, etc. far to go."
Soho is a city, there is a market there, but what did you mean by etc.?
"Well, the airport is too close"
What confuses you in the proximity of the airport?

agent_borabora, I meant the old market, the old city, Naama Bay. And near the airport we somehow rested in Antalya, not really, the noise of planes overhead is a little annoying. Not that it really infuriates, but if there is such a large selection, then it’s better to stay away

Have been to the Hilton Waterfall 4 times - a very compact and cozy hotel. Service is good! We have been to other hotels in Egypt, but I always want to return to Waterfall. (As in the country) I know people who personally did not really like this hotel. And we love him very much. The reef is good. But before it was possible to swim without problems in any direction, now it is forbidden to swim over the fences. There is a way out of this - if you swim well, then write a statement at the reception that you relieve the hotel of responsibility for your safety and swim wherever you want. did. There really is more to see. Just be careful with the current - it can carry you far. We had such a thing, well, nothing came back on foot))))) Good luck !!

angik007, Sierra is not the former Savita, you are confusing it. Sierra is a very good hotel, not cheap. In Faraan, the reef is better, of course. But the hotel itself is worse. If you want to be closer to the Old Town and Naama, then it's far from Soho.

Well, please help me, I have been reading reviews for two days, looking at maps and watching videos on youtube. But it seems that the more I look, the more I get confused!
Now, if, for example, we consider only Hadaba and Ras-um-el-sid. What to choose there?
Hilton Waterfalls
Vera club beach
Otium (shores) amphoras. It is not known what happened after the repair

vls_26, choose Hilton Sharm Waterfalls, especially since you were set on it from the very beginning. Each hotel has its own advantages and disadvantages. The main thing is a good mood for rest, and you have it. you rest. Everything is fine with the winds in May.

Other things being equal, I would take only the Sierra if it fits into the budget. She's cooler than Waterfold. And you can swim from the Sierra pontoon to the Savoy pontoon in one safe fenced area - a large one. You do not need to write any receipts for the release of liability. No currents, no strong waves. The river is good, there are a lot of living creatures, Napoleons, moray eels. And about the level of the hotel, only an excellent characteristic. A chic indoor Spa with free hydromassages until the last client in the evening - which is very nice with your loved one :).
angik007, while I was reading you to the point that Sierra is the former Savita, I thought my heart would become from such injustice :)))) But then I realized that they mixed up the hotels :))

As for snorling, I agree 100 with *orhideya21*, although a hotel and a draw-type sea area (without fences) are being built next to the Hilton Shark. SOHO is clean, tidy with many boutiques, an ice skating rink, live music, a singing fountain ... - a very pleasant place for an evening hangout (especially after 20.00).

So, in order to complete all the points at the same time:
- first line;
- live reef;
- not near the airport;
- around shops, cafes, market;
- quality food and service;
- up to 100 t. rub. for 10 days
only Hilton Waterfalls.
There is no other alternative.
