TL;DR
Hotel shops are overpriced. Head to Naama Bay instead — Fix Price and Mango Market offer better deals, and bargaining is expected at street stalls.
In Naama Bay, two good options stand out: Fix Price (prices in Egyptian pounds, slightly higher) and Mango Market (accepts USD, cheaper overall). At street stalls, always bargain — it's expected.
Hotel shops consistently charge a premium compared to any outside store. For souvenirs, it's always worth leaving the resort.
The price difference between hotel shops and street stores in Naama Bay is significant. Outside the resort you get more choice and better prices, especially if you negotiate.
