Question for connoisseurs - in which hotel is live coral? We were in Shark Bay at the Siwa Hotel and the Grand Oasis. We want to leave on November 15th. Does it make sense to look for other bays besides Shark, or repeat?

The coral near the Oasis is not bad, although we saw better near the "Charm Club", but this hotel was closed there at the time of our stay. But everything else in the "Oasis" is just awesome!! Just recently returned from there, read the reviews!

We have been in the Oasis since June 7, 2016, we flew on discounts, we liked everything for that money ... now I think maybe the Hilton is in the same bay? Who's new from the Hilton?

I think you will not be ready for this, just like us. Everything has changed and not for the better (even since September). We went on an excursion with people from the Hilton: in principle, we were satisfied, but there is a weak reef.

Do you consider the Phanar reef?
Were in the last week of October in the Otium hotel, there is a lively and very diverse reef, but waves.

I was considering the Grand hotel, not far from Otium. What is a Phanar reef? What are these hotels?

And for me, there is no better reef than in Sharks Bay. Last year we were in the Hilton Sharks Bay ... the hotel itself is not very good, but I liked the service and food more than in some fives, and the reef is good there. The year before last, we were in Melia Sinai - the reef is also cool, but there is a little more current. Soon we are going to Island View - the best beach and the reef is not completely dead yet

Just got back from The Grand Hotel. There is no reef, almost dead. There are very, very few fish. The reefs are much more beautiful in Sharks Bay. we were there in March of this year. So we can compare.
And in Otium, the reef is medium, but there are very strong currents.

In the otium, yes, there may be a current, but not so strong. Only 1 time was sensitive. And besides Shark, you can try Phanara.

Compared to Siwa (this is one chain of Red sea hotels), the territory is more beautiful, the food is much better! Very convenient entry into the sea from the stationary pier. Animation is zero, which is in Siwa, which is in the Grand Hotel. The husband tried to tell them, but all in vain.

By the way, they said that in the piano, a neighbor on the south side, the reef is better than in the otium. But I didn't get there.

Were in Hilton Sharks Bay. the reef is broken. they themselves scolded people for standing and walking on corals. no pleasure. if you sail for Concord, for Island View and for the Savoy, then there, behind the Savoy, a stormy underwater life begins. there, in front of the construction site, they swim little and live corals and colored fish are already teeming with unusually. there is absolutely no current, the water in the bay is very warm. swimming without a suit is comfortable.
in the direction of Siwa, you can sail beyond Siwa, in the direction of Melia Sinai (Melton Beach) there is also super. because there are no hotels nearby and the kids don’t swim there.
about the Hilton. Husband said this is the only hotel where alcohol is not diluted. that's where the positives end. I don't even want to write a review, how sad it is.......

maksimova41, 4 years ago there was no pontoon. entry into the sea in coral slippers, well, or in fins. so that it was not a "pleasant" surprise for you. and suddenly already built? came from the neighboring Reef Oasis, there were no complaints from the neighbors. Previously, the owner was a German, as they said. Now the owner has changed. the main thing is that they are not overwhelmed by the crisis, like everyone else. Keep us posted please. I myself have become attached to this hotel, it is somehow warm. Get a room closer to the pool. if the number is given in the far appendix, the animation noise of the Oasis Reef and the noise of the laundries will be heard from there

Entering the sea along a sandy beach and swimming or walking, it’s not deep there, it’s an internal lagoon, to the reef wall. You can, as mentioned above, go from a neighboring pontoon. At low tide, the reef is partially exposed. If I remember, I'll send pictures tomorrow.

maksimova41, that's right, in fins and in a mask. mask can be worn at depth. well, swim as usual. such a mover is in the order of things. there is a diving club and many diving enthusiasts come there. it bothered me to walk along the corals, if you can not do this, but go in, like people, from a pontoon. I was surprised that a hotel of this class does not have its own pontoon. I had to reconcile. when we talked with tourists, who are there for the 8th time, who are the 10th and 11th. it is strange that I like this one hotel, that it is windless, cozy, everything is suitable for children and adults. I don’t know about food, the most interesting. I remembered that they give ice cream after dinner. sauna and jacuzzi were free every day

Why walk on corals? You can swim above them. We did just that. Neither for us men, nor for our wives, it was not a problem.

The fact is that you can walk to the corals from the shore. There's a sandy-stone bottom and not deep. Then we swim through the corals to the side of the open sea. If there are waves, then you can swim from the inside.
