Is Ultra All Inclusive worth the extra cost vs regular All Inclusive at Egypt resorts?

TL;DR

Ultra All Inclusive mainly adds imported alcohol and more à la carte restaurant visits, but a standard 7-night All Inclusive package already includes 2 à la carte visits, so many travelers say it's not worth the upcharge.

What the community said

According to the resort's package details, the main difference between standard All Inclusive and Ultra is the number of à la carte restaurant visits allowed.

There are two beach bars: near building 2 everything is free, while the bar near building 1 (C-lido) only offers free water — alcohol, including imported brands, is paid separately.

With a standard 7-night All Inclusive package, 2 free à la carte restaurant visits are already included — the same as with Ultra.

Enclosed cabana-style tents with curtains near the building-1 bar are paid extra for everyone, regardless of meal plan (including Ultra).

General advice from guests: skip paying extra for Ultra, since the difference is mostly extra alcohol and one additional restaurant visit, not overall quality.

Buy gin, rum, or whiskey at duty-free and mix your own cocktails in the room — canned soda and bottled water are already free under All Inclusive.
