It's hard to knock this Moorish-style hotel. The rooms are spacious and spotless. The staff are helpful and friendly. The kid's club is excellent. The pools are beautiful. The sea is accessible from shore. (A beach jetty provides access to the outer reef.) Iberotel Lamaya Resort boasts a sandy beach and is just 5 km from Marsa Alam airport. The one disappointment is the food. It's just ok not near 5-star.
