Fodor's Expert Review Tropicana Rosetta & Jasmine Club

Sharm el Sheikh, South Sinai, Egypt

This large hotel is on the mountainside off Peace Road, offering comfortable accommodation and good facilities without the frills—or price tag—of the typical four- or five-star Sharm resort. Budget-minded travelers will appreciate the three discrete pool areas (ask for a room at the very top of the resort for views across the largest pool). The dive center is one of the most respected in Na'ama Bay, and clients include dive trainees and dive aficionados in addition to couples and families with older children of many nationalities. It's a three- to five-minute walk to the nearest public beach.

PROS

  • excellent pool facilities for a hotel in this price range
  • within easy access of Na'ama Bay's downtown but away from the hubbub

CONS

  • lack of a beach won't suit families with young children
  • the dining room has not been expanded as new rooms have been added, so breakfast can be very busy during prime hours
