Are you quite picky when it comes to appetite and aura?
Whether you like to enjoy the open air or prefer cooling off inside, the main restaurant allows for indoor and outdoor dining. This buffet-style restaurant is open for a pleasant breakfast, lunch and dinner.
The daily changing Buffet options will suit everyone in the family, with many delicious platters to choose from. You will still be at Hurghada, but the variety of international flavors would take you on a tour around the world.
Perfume can be a lovely fragrance coming out of the fresh ingredients of the Pizza toppings. It makes your taste buds flood with juices for an Italian treat, freshly baked in a fired-up wood oven, as well as the swooshing sounds of people ravening on their red or white pasta plates decorated with all types of colors. You can even admire the sight of the waiters’ parade walking from table to table, holding their plates up high on a single spread-out palm. An experience that would let you go “Perfetto” at the end of your meal.
If you want to “rum” from the hustle into a “tranquila” atmosphere, where you can hear the breeze “whisckeyper” in your ears, no other place is going to offer you peace in the “Absinthe” of noise and leave you with a “brandy” new meaning of serenity at an adults-only atmosphere.
Did you swim your way off to an empty stomach, and the smells around you are making your tummy bells ring? Set your sails towards the Beach Bar and grab a quick snack, a juicy burger, shawarma or a fresh salad. Nights also can capture you with their magical ambiance, blessed by a tender, sappy piece of Mediterranean grill. If you’re not a lark and you missed breakfast time, the Beach Bar has got you covered with a late continental breakfast. The beach bar offers fine wines and soda cans complemented with side dishes in an air of simplicity and leisure.
This pre-after-action spot, located on the reception level of the Beach Resort, has indoor relaxing seating, suitable for a cup of coffee, midday cocktails, and other refreshments. Head to it throughout the day and make some new friends over the sociable bar stools or the comfy sofas and have a little chit-chat away from the hustle of the beach or the pool bars.
Sink into the armchairs at Le Jardin venue located at the Lobby terrace, grab a book of your favorites, stay a little or a while. Noon and night are lazed away in a relaxing atmosphere, enjoying your chosen cocktail. Also offering delicious English afternoon tea served with cake and finger sandwiches.
Let your body relish the refreshing pool water as you hold the misty glass between your hand. Choose to fill it up from a selection of iced beverages, smoothies, or a foamy draft beer. As the sun sets, enjoy the fresh breeze that keeps the mood on a high note, relish a tropical cocktail, and sunbathe by the poolside bar of Fort Arabesque haven.
Game nights are never complete without a beer. Then, how about a holiday full of performances and shows while holding up your spiced-up drink and cheering your friends round after round through a night filled with tipsy chants, amusing performances, and joyful hearts.
Shut your thoughts and listen to the sound of waves crashing against the sandy shores. Then, sink your feet in the sand, lift your eyes up to the sky, and watch Hurghada’s sun setting home through the magical hour. Now, take a deep breath followed by a sip from your neat and forget about all your troubles.
