Sunrise Montemare vs Sunrise Diamond Beach in Sharm El Sheikh — which resort to choose?

Sunrise Montemare, according to a participant in July 2026, is greener, brighter and cosier, with rooms that are on average fresher and a calmer crowd. In their words, the hotel was renovated in 2025.

Sunrise Diamond Beach, according to the same comparison (July 2026), feels fresher as a hotel — it was renovated in 2026. But it is louder: lively daytime entertainment, foam parties and noise, and its grounds have less greenery.

The participant in July 2026 described the food at both hotels as comparable: in their words, guests praise the dining at both Montemare and Diamond Beach.

A key feature of Montemare (July 2026): the hotel is built in terraces with lots of stairs, and a shuttle runs to the sea. Some see this as a downside, others as an extra walk; the participant joked that the terraces make it hard to gain weight. If stairs are difficult for you, take this into account.

The participant's verdict (July 2026): it depends on what you want. For a party atmosphere and action, Diamond Beach without doubt; for relaxation and quiet, Montemare.
