Bottom Line
The 212-room Coral Sea Aqua Club Resort provides an upscale family-friendly beach vacation, with plenty of fun activities: four pools, multi-lane slides, a wave rider, and a lazy lake. There are also a spa, a kids’ club, on-site shops, casual buffet dining, and 24-hour cocktails. Sleek, modern rooms have flat-screen TVs and balconies or terraces; some have private pools. Beach access, however, is a bit of a trek through the sister hotel. For rooms closer to the beach, try the Sensatori Sharm El-Sheikh by Coral Sea.

Upscale South Sinai beach hotel with a lively water park
The Coral Sea Aqua Club Resort suits families seeking a beach vacation with kid-friendly entertainment and a lively on-site water park. Beige marble flooring, large windows, white and sand-colored chairs, and pops of blue furnishings give the vast lobby a sleek yet beach-y feeling. Restaurants are similarly minimalist-chic, in dark wood and gray, with pops of bright white, and lots of large windows to let in the sunshine. Most of the action at this three-floor hotel happens at the Aqua Park, with multi-lane slides, speed slides, a boomerang, a space bowl slide, a lazy lake for inner tubing, a FlowRider, a tiki water playground, and kiddy slides. Throughout the park are sand-colored decks lined with simple, black loungers and white umbrellas. There is more space for sunning around the free-form freshwater pool, though guests shouldn't expect to get much privacy whilst working on their tans, as the resort tends to be quite full. Seafaring decorations and faux sandy shores add to the lively atmosphere, which continues into the night at the 24-hour lobby bar.
Location

The resort is situated in Nabq Bay, a 10-minute walk from the beach, through sister hotel Coral Sea Holiday Village.
