Is Stella Di Mare Grand Hotel a good choice for a longer Ain Sokhna stay?
Mostly yes—it is a large 296-room five-star on a private beach with both indoor and outdoor pools, tennis courts and free in-room Wi-Fi, though at 7.8/10 from 165 reviews it rates below the newer resorts nearby. It suits guests who want space, sport and a beach without paying for a brand-new build; the beach has volleyball, and there are tennis, racquetball and squash courts plus a health club with fitness classes. Ein El Sokhna Port is about 12 minutes away and Cairo International Airport roughly 105 minutes by road.
Who should choose it?
Active guests: tennis, volleyball, racquetball, squash and a health club with fitness classes on site.
Longer stays: shopping on site, a daily manager’s reception and an indoor pool for days the wind gets up.
Families: family rooms and a range of sea, pool and garden views, with rollaway beds available for a daily charge.
Indoor and outdoor pools, a private beach and courts
How we would book it
Check-in is from 3:00 PM to midnight and checkout is before noon, with express options for both. Bring a government-issued ID and a credit or debit card, as a deposit is required at check-in, and expect a daily charge for a rollaway bed. If you are arriving without a car, the hotel arranges an airport shuttle for a surcharge rather than including it.
Why we’d book it
- Indoor as well as outdoor pool.
- Private beach with volleyball and two bars.
- Free in-room Wi-Fi and free self-parking.
- Tennis, squash and a health club with classes.
Trade-offs
- Built in 2000, so it is an older property than the newer Galala and Einbay resorts.
- Reviews mention loud beach music and slow restaurant service.
- The airport shuttle is charged as a surcharge.
