Info
Summary of reviewsPickalbatros Sea World Resort in Marsa Alam stands out as an idyllic seaside escape, offering guests breathtaking views of a clean and crystal-clear sea. The resort’s expansive and modern layout ensures convenience and accessibility, making it an excellent choice for relaxation and leisure. However, its somewhat remote location from Cairo and the airport is a minor drawback. The beach, while charming, has rocky areas that might require guests to wear appropriate footwear and be cautious when traveling outside the resort at night due to challenging road conditions.

Guests highly commend the breakfast at the resort for its abundance, deliciousness and variety with a special mention of the iced coffee and cocoa. The breakfast service runs conveniently from 7:00 am to 11:00 am, ensuring guests can dine at their own pace. Although some reviews point to a need for more variety and vegan options, the overall consensus praises the breakfast experience.

Dinner at the resort receives mixed feedback; while many appreciate the variety and quality of food across five buffet restaurants, others find the menus somewhat repetitive over an extended stay.

Guests consistently highlight the spotless environment, well-kept swimming pools and pristine beach, contributing to a welcoming and hygienic atmosphere. The staff at Pickalbatros Sea World Resort is another strong point with frequent mentions of their friendliness, helpfulness and exceptional service, especially at the reception.

However, the resort's WiFi connectivity is a notable downside, as guests report frequent issues with slow speeds, disconnections and weak signals, particularly in the rooms. This limits internet usage mainly to basic applications like WhatsApp.

An impressive array of over twenty swimming pools enhances the resort's appeal, catering to guests of all ages and preferences. The pools are well-maintained and clean with options for both heated and cold water, making swimming a pleasant experience regardless of the weather.

Lastly, the resort exudes luxury with its elegant atmosphere, granite top tables and luxurious cafes, enhancing the overall opulent feel. Guests frequently describe the hotel as deserving of more than five stars, highlighting its successful management and appealing ambiance.

In summary, Pickalbatros Sea World Resort in Marsa Alam provides a picturesque, comfortable and family-friendly vacation experience with excellent amenities, especially the pools and dining options.
