Which resort to choose in Hurghada/Sharm area for a modern hotel with good beach and sea access — Rixos, Steigenberger Rose, DoubleTree Mangroovy or similar?

TL;DR

For families, the lagoon at Rose (Steigenberger Aqua Magic Rose) is recommended for its gentle sea entry, more restaurants, and larger grounds. Also worth checking are Al Kasr, Jaz Elite Asteria, and the new Magawish Bay building; Rixos Magawish has gotten pricier and reportedly declined in quality since 2024.
