Reviews
Guests can use all three Pickalbatros hotels located next to each other, which is very convenient - Aqua Park, Aqua Blue, Aqua Vista.
There is an aqua park for all ages, starting with very young children.
The hotel is very sports oriented: a well equipped gym, outdoor running areas, organized yoga and stretching classes, foam rolling sessions, a CrossFit area, a lap swimming pool, a sauna with an ice pool, bicycle rental, and courts for all types of tennis.
The hotel is on the second line, but the walk to the sea takes about 15 minutes, and there is also a free hotel shuttle.
There is a designated private beach with sun loungers and umbrellas, as well as its own bar and snack bar.
The coral reef is quite modest, but there is still something to see.
The rooms are not new, but they are neat and clean.
The food is varied. A special highlight is the pastry shop with a Moroccan pastry chef. In the evenings, chocolate fountains are set up, and there is a wide selection of desserts to suit every taste.
The hotel also has a free VR room, located downstairs near the reception of the Aqua Blue hotel.
I would recommend this hotel to families with children as well as to guests who enjoy sports and an active lifestyle.
Nice beach, where you can stay at a sister hotel, but you need to bring your own towels there, bc they have not enough.
Food was delicious and a lot of choice!
The people who work at the resort (cleaning, service and cooking) were all very helpfull and friendly. Tip: if you want to tip them, keep in mind that they cannot make use of euro coins (bank won't accept them), so maybe change the coins for them with bills or Egyption pounds.
Also, people with dissabilities can go to the toilet at as many places as non-disabled people, you don't see that often.
On the day of arrival, it would be helpful to provide a more thorough explanation of the areas guests can access. Some restaurants were not available with our wristbands (not referring to the à la carte options), beach access through other hotel but not the bar/pools in that hotel.
90% guests were Russian so that sums up our experience...
The rooms were also excellent: very spacious, comfortable, and almost every room has its own private balcony, which was a big plus for us.
When it comes to food, there are three main restaurants located across the different areas, several bars, and even a bakery dedicated to desserts (my favorite spot!). The à la carte restaurants need to be booked at least two days in advance. We’re especially grateful to Anna, who helped us secure our reservation. Although the à la carte dishes weren’t exactly our taste, we actually enjoyed the buffet restaurants even more.
The only downside was the Wi-Fi. In some areas of the resort, the connection was weak, so we had to rely on our own mobile data.
Overall, we had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend this resort to anyone visiting Hurghada.
