Are hotel pools heated and is the sea warm enough in Egypt in winter?

One recent report mentioned air temperatures of about 29°C and sea water around 25°C, which the traveler found comfortable. The pools felt cooler, although a child still enjoyed swimming in them.

Early check-in may be possible: one traveler who arrived at 11:30 was in their room by about 12:00.

Towel changes were available from 17:00 to 19:00; guests could arrange this with the staff member responsible for room cleaning, who was usually on site.

For a December–January stay, confirm pool heating before booking: the discussion indicates that pools may not be heated.

At some properties the beach is not directly on site: guests are taken to the Dana area for the sea, although the distance to the beach area is described as short.
