Are hotel kids’ pools and water slides in Sharm El Sheikh safe for children?

In the newest report, a child nearly drowned in the kids’ area in the morning, but the lifeguards reacted quickly. That suggests staff are present, but parents still should not rely on lifeguards alone and should supervise children continuously.

One report describes a near collision on a children’s slide when an adult went down right after a child. The practical takeaway is to manage the gap between riders yourself, even if a lifeguard is on duty.

An earlier message says the kids’ slide was temporarily closed after a sanitation incident involving a child. So in family pool areas, the issue may be not only safety but also hygiene, and attractions can shut without notice.
