Which hotel building/block should I pick in Egypt resorts with a 'Preferred Area' (renovated vs old rooms)?

From messages by 3 participants in 2 sources · Last activity: 59 days ago

TL;DR

In Egypt resorts with a 'Preferred Area', renovated rooms are usually in the buildings to the right of reception, closer to the pool and restaurant, while older unrenovated blocks are on the left, farther from the main facilities.

What the community said

At Serrano Aqua Park, as of July 2026, a guest observed that only one room wing had been renovated; the restaurant and most common areas were also updated. Renovation of the single-storey villa rooms had not yet begun.

The building facing the relax pool (often labeled Block A) has been renovated; a neighboring block (B) may also be updated by now — mattresses were replaced there last year. Rooms on the 2nd-3rd floor have the best views.

All buildings in the Preferred Area to the right of reception have renovated deluxe rooms, closer to the pool and restaurant. Buildings to the left of reception are older, unrenovated, and farther from the main facilities — few of these rooms remain.

Right of reception = renovated, left = not renovated
