Totally delighted!!!!! I'll start in order. We arrived at the hotel at 8:00 a.m., and we were immediately put on bracelets and checked in. The room was given very spacious:two large beds moved into one and a separate sofa for the baby,a large jar-beautiful everything 👌 The area is a separate applause👏 Everything is so superb🔥🔥🔥🔥 Perfect level lawn, lots of flowers, shrubs and trees. Trees and hedges are lined up like a ruler, and there are a lot of cacti in the grounds👍👍
Tracks are constantly swept and washed👌
The beach is great 👍👍👍 Sun loungers are more than enough!!!! Place can be found at any time, although the hotel has a lot of tourists. Every morning they level the sand with a fan rake. Going into a sea of gentle, clean water 👍 There are several bars on the beach, bartenders constantly go and offer drinks.
The animation team is a really tight-knit and cool team🚀🔥🕺💃 Such fun and energetic guys I have never met anywhere 🔥 Mega positive and talented, not obsessive, but impossible to say no to!!! I really enjoyed going to yoga, dancing, playing darts, aqua aerobics every day👍 Guys are really bringing people together and everyone is becoming like friends. They smile and say hello when they meet, and there is no language barrier. The evening shows were just amazing🔥🔥🔥🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀 There were acrobats and belly dancing, African show, show with fire, well just great 🔥🔥🔥
There are a lot of different shops on the property, a pharmacy, which is very important. Restaurants for all tastes: Asian, Italian, Greek, fish, proper food restaurant, international and European cuisine. Besides, there are a lot of bars. I can't say anything about alcohol, I don't drink.
I want to mention the fish restaurant Felucca 👌 Excellent serving, everything is very delicious. But the most important thing for me as a mom was that they cooked separately for my baby, because he had stomach problems. At the fish restaurant he was served boiled chicken and steamed vegetables!!!! And not just vegetables, but specified what kind of vegetables a child can. This is a professional approach and deserves special praise👏👏👏 I was madly grateful for it!!!!!
In addition, you can go to the nearby Makadi Hotel and enjoy all the benefits. There's a big playground, a water park, and you can also go to bars and restaurants.
Definitely back here !!!!!!

The hotel has to be one of the cleanest hotels I have ever stayed in! Everywhere we went there was always someone cleaning and sanitising, which was amazing! It’s a beautiful resort, which is looked after extremely well by the workers there.
The room we booked was massive, with everything you could need, and again was spotless, with daily house keeping and mopping! The beds were comfy and the AC worked perfectly, with in room controls.

The cocktails were out of the world, and the food wasn’t bad at all in the buffet restaurant. There was always snacks on offer around the hotel, should you get hungry!

There was also around 8/9 a la carte restaurants to choose from, included in the price, however we only ate at one chinichurri steak restaurant, which was very tasty.

The location was fabulous, with the beach right on the resort! All the staff were so friendly and accommodating, even taking your drinks orders from your sun lounger or table for all inclusive!
There was a massive variety of entertainment for the children, including foam party’s, colour party’s and carnivals on the beach, and shows every evening, with the staff being so friendly and amazing with the children. The splash park was a great addition to the many swimming pools, but it would have been nice for the water slides to be open for longer, as they only open 10-12 and 2-4.
There are a variety of shops on the resort, near the restaurant/ reception and also on the beach, which aren’t overly cheap, but have the necessities you may need and more with the addition of a pharmacy too. Be warned though, the tobacco is most certainly fake in there, ( as are most around Egypt, unless bought in duty free). They take Egyptian pounds, gbp and usd, and prefer smaller notes, over larger notes or change.

Overall, we had the most wonderful, relaxing experience at sunrise royal makadi, and would not hesitate to recommend to others!

The best thing about this holiday is the staff! They made our holiday what it was! The bar staff are attentive, making sure you always have a drink. Sonic, Sam and Oozo (along with the rest of the entertainment team) are amazing at getting you involved, and making you feel welcome. We were there for my Dads 50th birthday celebrations, and every single member of staff, from the cleaning department to the entertainment team, went above and beyond to make his day special. The rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable. The fridge was always stocked up with bottles of water. There is also a lovely bit of coral reef on the hotels beach, which is great for doing a bit of snorkelling! Only complaint is we went to the paid Seafood bar one night, and on checkout, found out we had to pay for the drinks at that restaurant. This would have been absolutely fine if they had been different, or imported drinks. However they were not. The drinks were collected from the same bar we had been getting all inclusive drinks from the rest of the week. This was not made clear when we ordered the drinks, and it we had of been made aware, we would probably have ordered something like a cocktail. Not the same house wine we had been drinking already for free. Other than this small thing, we had an amazing time and we look forward to going back in a couple of years time.

The hotel does not feel like a 5 star. We had issues from the moment we arrived.

Check in took longer then expected. The main buffet is very hot inside. They need to add more AC units.

The staff in the restaurants are a mixed bunch. Some of very nice and some don’t want anything to do with you. The staff at the kids slide area that make pizza and burgers are overworked and miserable. They are really rude to everyone. The guy making the pizza is sweating all over the pizzas being made, hotel should consider more staff at that area to assist with volume of people.

The Beach is beautiful and there was always loungers available. Staff on beach are great! Snorkeling is sooo nice !! Lots to see with the reefs.

All pools are very clean and washrooms around hotel are also very clean

The rooms are a bit dated depending on the room you choose. Family suites are the best but washrooms need improvement.

The barcode system to get a restaurant is horrible and should be changed to an easier system that works. We had issues with the barcodes and monitors in the reception. Room keys are always not working.

All shops on the hotel grounds are crazy expensive and prices are made up on the spot. I would recommend buying what you need before arriving.

The pharmacy at the hotel is a disaster, the prices are beyond ridiculous. I was extremely uncomfortable talking to the staff there.

The restaurants are all pretty good and the buffet for dinner is also good.

Overall a 7/10 hotel expierence, my kids had a great time with all the entertainment

A beautiful hotel with a very clean facility. The rooms could do with a renovation, however, especially the bathroom smelled musty. The tennis courts could also be renovated. The service staff were always friendly and the food in the a la carte restaurants and the buffet restaurant was really good (except for cream sauces, which you can't do). Cocktails depend on the bartender, but the selection is good. The quality manager and the head chefs regularly ask whether everything is OK or if something can be improved. We have never experienced this in other hotels. Really great! The lifeguards at the pools and on the beach take their job really seriously and look after the people swimming.
The sandy beach is beautiful, the sea is clear and there is also a small coral reef right next to it. It would be great if the coral reefs were re-bred a bit here.
The only real problem are the constant vendors on the beach, sometimes you get approached every 5 minutes. With the red flag (available at the towel stand) it is no use approaching them.
The WiFi is very good throughout the hotel.
We had a lovely holiday there and would come again. Thank you very much!

This was a perfect last minute holiday for me and my 19 year old daughter. The hotel is huge but not crowded. We had a wonderfully spacious room overlooking one of the many pools. The choice of a la carte restaurants in the evening made a nice change from the lunchtime buffet, we went to a different restaurant each night. The staff cannot do enough for you and every single member of the very large team seems to take pride in their work. Big shout out to Sonic, Shika and Oozo on the entertainment team. The hotel is right on the beach, with clean, soft sand and clear, shallow water. Nothing to do in the immediate vicinity, but plenty of onsite activities and entertainment to keep you occupied. This hotel has everything you would expect from an all inclusive ‘flop & drop’ package holiday.

Excellent hotel, excellent service, the hotel left a very favorable impression. Large well-groomed area, nice long beach, convenient sandy entry into the sea, positive staff, everyone is trying to help solve any issue. The buildings and rooms are not new, but renovated, everything you need is there, cleaning, replacement of hygiene items and towels every day. The settlement is varied - rooms, bungalows, and cottages right on the shore. There are many bars and restaurants, ice cream from a machine is very convenient, the main restaurant is also impressive - the waiters are responsive, fulfill all requests, the main thing is to smile and speak at least a little English)) the food is delicious, a little monotonous, but during the week there were shrimps and crabs, and dorado, meat/poultry always, not very interested in baked goods, but they look beautiful)) there was also a selection of fruits, there were definitely strawberries. There is a Russian-speaking girl at the reception, very pleasant and adequate. The only thing is that the sea, of course, is much inferior to Sharm, but there are fish, they swim around, but this nuance does not depend on the hotel)) Animation, it seems that the guys are trying all day long, they are great. We don’t go to the same hotel twice, but I really want to return to this one)))

An amazing hotel with a fantastic sandy beach and a crystal clear water, you could see many colourful small fish on shore or you could do some snorkeling and see bigger fish and a turtle in the coral reefs in the snorkeling area.
Enjoyed the food as it was delicious freshly baked bakeries daily some are made infront of you. My family and I liked the fact that you can book your dinner at different restaurants in the resort. We have tried the Mediterranean restaurant Elia, the Italian Basilico, and the Bedouin. There are other restaurants unfortunately we didn't have time to try such as the Mexican Frida, the healthy roots, the steakhouse Chimichuri and the Asian. Do not miss the soft icecream 🍦 daily at snack time 😋
Room was spacious with pool view and it was cleaned daily restocking the used toiletries.
You could breath in fresh air as you are surrounded with green areas
We had a wonderful vacation and will definitely stay again!
Special thanks to the extremely friendly, helpful and cheerful staff;
-The reception for the quick checkin and checkout and helping us with our requests such as providing a ground floor room for my parents as they couldn't go upstairs.
-The animation team, they were energetic covering the whole day from morning till evening with activities and shows by the beach and pool.
-The lifeguards were extremely attentive.
-The chefs, waiters, and all staff working in the kitchen 24hrs.

Just had a lovely holiday at this hotel hot and sunny every day ..the staff were absolutely fantastic .. so helpful so polite and good fun .. hotel is on the beach and you can even get a camel ride on “Casanova” for £10 .. the hotel and rooms are absolutely spotless, food ok usual buffet style food .. breakfasts very good omelettes pancakes and waffles all freshly cooked there are restaurants on site as well but didn’t try these..beds comfortable pillows a bit hard .. pool areas spotless with one heated pool .. I had 2 massages at the hotel done by Shamira this was excellent £50 for 1 hour
There isn’t anything for miles outside the hotel ..Sheraton Road is near the marina about 45mins in a taxi this is were they sell good quality copies of clothes ( Boss,Armani) etc .. food and drink at the marina good and reasonably priced .
Tips:
Taxi at the top gate will charge about £20 return to Marina .. hotel charges £50
All souvenirs etc cheaper on Sheraton Road than on site
Room can be kept on if you have a late flight but book it the day before cost £30
No need to take beach towels these are provided free every day
No charge for sun loungers on the beach
Cheaper to buy cigarettes at the shops on site rather than duty free at the airport eg 200 Marlborough gold £25
Can use English pounds, euros or dollars no need to take Egyptian money
To summarise .. we will definitely be returning to this spotless friendly hotel again for another relaxing holiday 🌞

First time visiting Egypt and first ever All-Inclusive experience, we stayed for 5 days.
In general a very pleasant experience and a nice resort to spend time in the sun.

Biggest pro's:
+ Although the rooms are somewhat dated, the facilities work nicely and the cleaning is top notch (we had a family suite), the whole resort is cared for very well
+ A lot of variety in the buffet, between lunch and dinner and also different days, with multiple selections of cuisines
+ No limitations to how many à la carte reservations you can make
+ During our stay in early December it was exceptionally calm, with a lot of free spots at all pools, at the beach, etc... while still enjoying 26°C+ weather
+ Nice towel service for daily pool & beach towels, with optional red flag to hang from your chair, parasol, ... to sign you are not interested in solliciting vendors
+ Exceptionally friendly personnel, from cooks, waiters, cleaning personnel and gardeners, everyone is always smiling and happy to help
+ Some nice corals and many different fish to spot in the clear waters of the resort's private beach
+ Multiple options for extra activities like mini-golf, kid's planet, tennis, ...

Biggest cons:
- A lot of sollicitation from vendors trying to convince you to pay for massage, snorkeling trips, extra food, ... the red flag helps, but not everyone respects it
- Some foods are not as good as you might expect, these are understandably mostly foods that are not part of typical Egyptian/Arabic cuisine like croissants, french fries, bread, pizza, ...
- Not all pools are heated, with only 1 of 3 swim-up bar pools being heated, the heated pools are 28°C, the non-heated are marked as 23°C however I found this hard to believe (felt much colder!), fortunately most pools including the waterpark pool are heated, and the sea was also pleasantly warm!
- Inbetween meals, e.g. between lunch and dinner, it is not easy to find options in terms of snacks, with most of them being at an extra charge

All in all very happy with our vacation, a nice resort where you can unplug and enjoy hot weather a good food.
