Is the food and kids’ buffet at Oasis in Makadi Bay good enough for a 5-star Egypt resort?

From messages by 2 participants in 1 source · Last activity: 10 days ago

TL;DR

Reviews describe a large food selection but inconsistent quality, including poorly peeled vegetables, variable butter and limited child-friendly options. Oasis is seen more as a solid 4-star resort; Makadi Beach, Jaz Makadina and Steigenberger are suggested for a higher-end stay.

What the community said

For children, the main buffet may be more useful than the kids’ station: the children’s selection reportedly included mainly fries and very salty, spicy mini burgers. Instant oatmeal prepared with hot water was one of the milder options mentioned.

Food quality was described as uneven, with carrots and potatoes sometimes left almost unpeeled despite a large amount of food remaining after dinner. Travelers needing lighter meals may want to choose simple dishes and check vegetables carefully.

Butter quality may vary: on some days it reportedly tasted more like margarine, while staff provided proper butter when asked. Try it early in the stay and request a replacement if needed.

Oasis was characterized as a good 4-star rather than a full 5-star experience. For a higher standard in Makadi Bay, Makadi Beach, Jaz Makadina and Steigenberger were mentioned as alternatives, generally at a higher price.
