TL;DR

Many cliffside resorts in Egypt run a beach shuttle such as a golf cart or minibus. Walking is usually possible too: the descent often takes about 5 minutes, with either stepped access with landings or a gentler sloped path.

According to the latest report, the resort provides internal transport to the beach: a golf cart or minibus takes guests to the elevator down to the sea. Walking is also manageable — from Building 51 it takes about 5 minutes to reach the stairs, which are not very steep and have gentle landings between flights.

Another recent reply confirms that a shuttle runs between the accommodation area and the beach. Travelers say the stairs are not a major issue, and if the hotel pontoon is inconvenient, there is a nearby public wild beach with free access and a sandy entry into the water.

An earlier comment notes that you still have to go downhill to reach the sea: either via a steep staircase or a gentler sloped route, which is generally easier. There is no fully flat access, so travelers with limited mobility should check in advance whether the resort shuttle and elevator are available.
