TL;DR
In summer 2026 travelers in Sharm el-Sheikh bought groceries at the Metro supermarket near the hotels, at Gomla Market and at Mango Market in Hadaba, and some made the trip to Fix Price for a wider range and lower prices. A June report says tea, spices, nuts and cheese were cheaper in small local shops and at Metro than at Mango Market. Mango Market gets very crowded in the evening.
In October 2026 a traveler went shopping in the Old Town: they bought dates, Vatika shampoos and chocolate, and found it all cheap. According to them, you are driven there, given about 1.5 hours to shop and driven back, but it is very crowded.
Some travelers prefer Fix Price for range and prices: in July 2026 one wrote that it has a much bigger selection and nicer prices than Mango Market. The downside is that it is far from the hotels, so you need transport. One traveler combined the trip with a walk and bought water and cardamom coffee there.
At Gomla Market in June 2026 travelers bought fresh mango and guava juice — very tasty and just under one US dollar.
A Metro supermarket sits opposite one of the hotels — in June 2026 a family bought baby purée, yogurt and juices there when they did not feel like walking to Gomla Market. Another June report says tea, spices, nuts and cheese were cheaper at Metro and in small local shops than at Mango Market.
Not everyone liked Mango Market in Hadaba: in June 2026 travelers said it is packed in the evening. In late June one traveler listed what they bought there: frozen mango pulp, tinted sunscreen, reef shoes, cola, chocolate and juices. In late July another added that if Mango Market is closer to your hotel, there is little point travelling to Fix Price just for groceries.
