π³πΎββοΈ Salemβs Take: Serious Relaxation
This is not a hotel for parties. It is not a hotel for running around. It is a hotel for sitting very still, sipping a cocktail, and saying "Ahhhh."
It is strictly Adults Only (16+). The vibe is sophisticated, quiet, and very polished. If you want to propose to someone, or apologize for something big, bring them here. It will work.
Why Couples Love It
The Spa
It has one of the best Thalasso therapy pools in the region. The spa menu is extensive. It smells like eucalyptus and peace.
Vitamin Bar
They have a fresh juice bar that actually uses fresh fruit. Sounds basic, but in Egypt, finding real mango juice that isn't syrup is a win.
Pillow Menu
Yes, you can choose your pillow. Down, foam, memory... itβs a small touch, but it screams "we care about your sleep."
Detailed Assessment
β The Excellence
- Service: The staff are trained to be invisible until you need them. They don't hover. They just appear with a towel when you stand up.
- Food: The buffet is smaller than huge resorts but higher quality. Smoked salmon, good cheese, real coffee.
- Pools: Thereβs a heated saltwater pool. Floating in it is pure therapy.
β The Notes
- Entertainment: Itβs low-key. A violinist, maybe a singer. If you want disco lights and foam parties, you will be bored to tears.
- Dress Code: They enforce the dinner dress code (long trousers for men). Don't walk in wearing swim shorts and expect to be seated.
π Arrive in Style
Sahl Hasheesh has a private gate. Entering in a private limo just feels right for this hotel.
Start the relaxation from the airport.
Common Questions (FAQ)
Is it really 16+?
Yes. They are strict. No toddlers. No babies. Just peace.
Is the sea good for swimming?
It has a long jetty to get over the coral. The reef quality is decent, but not world-class compared to Marsa Alam. It's great for a dip though.
What is "VIP Package"?
It gets you access to the "Society Lounge", private beach cabanas, and upgraded amenities. If you have the budget, the lounge access is worth it for the sunset drinks alone.
Dream a Little
The Jacuzzi Suites overlooking the sea are often booked months in advance.
