Absolutely loved it, the staff were all so friendly and caring. Sofia was so energetic and sweet towards us and always looked out for us. The environment of everyone was as if we were a massive family too. My family enjoyed how we would see that our room always had a new decoration (9th pic) each day.

Staff were polite and helpful couldn't do enough to help. Food was brilliant lots of fresh fruits and vegetables at every meal . Hotel rooms were really clean and comfortable. Rooms were cleaned everyday . All areas were spotless loads off pools and water park . Hotel taxis are cheap and very safe. A brillant holiday .

My favourite hotel in Sharm!! My family and I had a great experience staying in Aqua blu this week. The animation team in this hotel is fantastic, especially are personal favourite Sofia from England she is so kind and Beautiful thank you specially to her for making are holiday such a happy time. Food is good in hotel, there is choices for everyone, are favourite restaurant to eat in most nights was the Italian, the best service in there to. Waterslides are so great in this hotel there is so many and so much pools to including heated ones. Entertainment is amazing, every night there is a different show by the stage to keep you entertained, tables to sit and watch and waiters serve you drinks all night without having to move which we loved. Thank you very much Aqua blu for an amazing time, we hope to come back again.

I would not recommend staying at the Pickalbatros Aqua Blue hotel for several reasons, especially considering the price paid. While the weather, cleanliness, and the courteous assistance provided by the driver, Reda Hamed, were commendable, numerous aspects of our stay were disappointing. Primarily, the service was subpar, with a majority of the staff displaying rudeness and disrespect, particularly towards women. It was rare to encounter a smile throughout the hotel, and seeking assistance was met with arrogance and impoliteness. The lack of food variety was notable, and encounters such as the incredulous reaction to a simple request for mayonnaise exemplified the poor service standards. Additionally, the quality of alcohol cocktails was unsatisfactory, and the presence of birds scavenging for food on the tables was off-putting. Furthermore, an incident involving aggressive behavior from a spa worker towards a guest was witnessed, which added to the negative experience. Despite a manager's apology for a disappointing birthday celebration and the promise of swimming with dolphins for my daughter, no such arrangements materialized. The private beach was marred by hazardous rocky terrain and damaged sunbeds, while transportation services were overpriced, and attempts to charge for complimentary items like wine were encountered. Conversations with fellow guests confirmed the widespread dissatisfaction with the service and the prevalent disrespect towards women. Overall, our stay left us feeling unwelcome and disappointed, and we have no intention of returning.

We booked this trip for some Easter sun, and the water park was the main selling point for us. In that respect, this hotel is great - there are lots of slides and pools and the lifeguards are attentive. My son loved this hotel. The rooms are a little dated, although clean and quite spacious, and basic toiletries are provided. Evening entertainment was provided such as magic shows and a disco but we didn't hang around for these - as another review has mentioned there are so many smokers here (every pool lounger has a table and an ashtray) with no designated area that we couldn't sit amongst it for too long and went back to our room. Wifi was just ok but decent enough for my son to watch his iPad. There is a TV in the room but no English speaking channels, not a big deal for us though. Food wise it was typical buffet style food, nothing amazing and limited choices but just enough to not be boring. Drinks are served in tiny glasses and juices are cartons of apple juice etc. There is a drinks fountain as well but it got quite busy most nights. We did tip one of the waiters on our first night though and he brought us out bigger glasses, and kept us topped up. Every night after he looked after us the same way. Staff wise was hit and miss, our room cleaner was amazing and made up little towel animals everyday, my son couldn't wait to see what the next animal would be. Most of the reception staff though were pretty unhelpful - our transfer to the airport was at 7pm and checkout at midday. Each day of our holiday I went to ask about a later checkout ($110 to stay until 6pm) only to be told to come back the next day. On the final day of our holiday they finally said they were full and we would have to check out at 12, which meant sitting in the lobby for 7 hours. I know late checkout can be guaranteed but had they just said this upfront then I would have booked another hotel by the airport for us to freshen up in, impossible to do this with only a couple of hours notice though and it made our last day pretty lousy. All said we had a good holiday but likely won't ever return here again, and wouldn't recommend it to friends and family.
