Fodor's Expert Review Ritz-Carlton

Retorno del Rey #36, Sharm el Sheikh, South Sinai, Egypt

Editor's Note: This location is no longer in operation.

Combining the sensuality of ancient Egypt and the breezy hush of a desert oasis, the Ritz offers its guests the definitive Red Sea resort experience. The Ritz has thought of everything, from aromatherapy and massage treatments in a tent overlooking the sea to childproof rooms and bathrooms. A maze of freshwater streams allows guests to float through lush gardens and waterfalls. In the evening, you can dine at one of five unique restaurants featuring Lebanese, Italian, and Asian cuisines. Finish your evening at the Cigar Divan, where tuxedo-clad waiters will serve you a perfect martini with your Cuban cigar.

PROS

  • excellent spa on-site
  • expansive, lush gardens and grounds
