I visited Port Ghalib in Egypt in December with Classic Collection Holidays for 3 nights.
We flew into Hurghada airport and within 25 minutes drive we arrived at the luxurious 5* Oberoi Hotel. This hotel offers all suite rooms with sunken marble baths overlooking private walled gardens. There is a private beach within the 48 acres of grounds, outdoor swimming pool, The Banyan Tree Spa offering a wide range of health & beauty treatments along with excellent restaurants featuring fine cuisine.
We then travelled down to Port Ghalib where we stayed at the 5* deluxe Intercontinental Palace Hotel for our 3 night stay. The hotel has a lovely sandy beach, outdoor swimming pool and lagoon set around lush gardens with a multitude of sport facilities. It has a Six Senses Spa, 3 restaurants including one at the Marina close by and not to be missed is after dinner drinks on the Terrace of the Look Out Bar with stunning settings.
I went on two excursions whilst there, one being a Red Sea Experience where we had the opportunity to go Snorkeling and to do a Trial Scuba Dive, if you prefer you can just relax onboard in the sun whilst lunch and beverages are served. The other was a Super Safari Experience into the desert in 4x4 vehicles. Once there you can opt for a Camel ride or a Quad bike ride into the desert for 20 minutes and on your return relax with some Bedouin Tea & Coffee along with some Bedouin entertainment in the Egyptian sunset.
Port Ghalib is a new and upcoming resort with a lovely marina that features restaurants, cafes, bars, a traditional Egyptian Bazaar and surrounded by luxury, sophisticated hotels. This resort is also a diver’s paradise and offers a wide range of other water sports and is ideal for a relaxing break in the sun.
