Is hotel renovation in Sharm El Sheikh currently affecting guests’ stay?

In an update dated 6 October, guests reported that construction noise could be heard even on the beach and that wind sometimes carried dust from the site. They said they gradually got used to the work.

An update dated 9 October clarified that Building 3 had been renovated again following a fire, while rooms in the other buildings had received only cosmetic refurbishment.

In a review dated 9 October, a guest described ongoing cosmetic maintenance, including paint touch-ups, replacement of beach umbrella roofs and repairs to loungers. They reported no construction dust and said the work had not disrupted their stay.

A guest update from 21 September says renovation opposite the reception area is highly disruptive: heavy machinery operates during the day, early morning, and even late evening; at about 10 pm, vibrations could be felt through the walls and bed.

According to a 4 September update, renovation is actively continuing at the hotel, with many bungalow units already being worked on. This may affect room allocation, so it is worth confirming the room location before check-in.

Renovation is still underway in several areas: the club entrance area, the main aquapark entrance, and some accommodation buildings including Azalia. A recent guest says the work is not disrupting their holiday.

Construction to the left of the first building is described as not particularly noisy; vehicles arrive only during the day. Dogs at the site can occasionally be heard barking.

A guest who stayed about two weeks ago reports seeing no renovation in this hotel at all — the construction work was at the neighboring Blu hotel, not this property.

A guest staying at the hotel from Aug 1–22 confirms that a wall near the pool is closed off for work, but the pool itself is operating and remains clean.

Clarification that the visible construction is actually new hotels being built on both sides of the property, not renovation inside this hotel itself; one guest reported noticing dust in the sea water while swimming today.

According to guests staying on 10 August, no active renovation work was seen or heard at the hotel, so it was not affecting their stay.

In an update from 12 August, all rooms were said to have completed renovation and received new furniture, with the hotel described as fully refreshed.

Renovation confirmed on the ground floor of the right building — rooms and balconies were being repaired today, but it does not generally interfere with the stay.

A guest staying on the ground floor on the AMC side reports unbearable all-day noise from renovation in the adjacent room right behind the wall. The hotel offered to relocate them — guests should visit the Guest Relations office at 13:30.

A current guest staying in the new building near the sea reports no smell reaching the room, whereas guests in bungalows do notice the odor.

Renovation can significantly disturb guests in rooms above or near the kids’ club: reports mention dust, constant hammering, and drilling throughout the day. It is best to avoid this area when choosing a room.

A guest on their second day reports no major changes overall: room AC has improved, but water taste got worse. The hotel is now quite crowded, especially noticeable in the evenings when waiter drink service is slow — though guests can quickly self-serve at the bar. Food service remains fine.

A recent guest update says the more noticeable construction is at a neighboring purchased hotel rather than only inside the resort, but they report it did not disturb their stay.

Recent guests confirm that renovation is happening, but it is limited in scope — work is focused on Building 34, and only one of the two buildings is affected.

Current feedback suggests the renovation is not causing major inconvenience: guests specifically say their stay remains comfortable and their overall hotel experience is positive.

With the hotel currently lightly occupied, the atmosphere is calm: by 8:00 am there are still plenty of free beach loungers, so the property does not feel crowded even with renovation underway.

Guests also report no lines, including at the beach bar, which suggests the ongoing works are not noticeably affecting service or common leisure areas.
