Review of Steigenberger Al Dau Beach Hot...

Family deep relaxation

Family deep relaxation

We had 3 fantastic relaxing weeks at Al Dau Steigenberger.

What did we particularly like?
- the complex is huge and you never get the feeling that the hotel is full - even though it was. In addition, the area is perfectly maintained by the army of gardeners.
- The staff is always super friendly and accommodating. We particularly liked the child-friendly waiters at breakfast (Mena Tharwat and Manal Bebawy) and at lunch (Ahmed Fathy). On the beach we were pampered by Mena Kamal with excellent ice-coffee frapes.
- Contrary to our fear, the food has not bored us even after 3 weeks. The 5 a la cart restaurants (3 x Japanese, French and Lebanese) ensure a great variety in combination with the diverse themed evenings in the buffet restaurant.
- the rooms are spacious and offer enough space even for a family with 3 children (age 1.5, 4, 6).
- the sea with its thousands of different fish that can even be explored by snorkeling directly from the hotel beach: is like entering another world. We have Arabian boxfish, puffer fish, etc. also saw a giant puffer fish, sea turtles, rays and many more.
- that in all-incl. Sports offer with kayak, beach games, beach volleyball and the like gives you the necessary exercise.
- the pool area is unique and offers plenty of space for relaxation and fun.
- the air conditioning was very quiet and successfully brought our room to a comfortable 22 degrees (adjustable). So we had super relaxed nights.

The only lowlight is the externally operated sports and surf provider. Both the friendliness and the English / German knowledge are poor and the billing method (excessive bill) cast a bad light on the otherwise perfect hotel.

We can only recommend the hotel and will be back if Hurghada is on the program.
