We stayed at this hotel for 10 nights for our anniversary (all inclusive , sea view room) To start with the reception staff who were very poor and helpless, Not very pleasant to deal with and always felt like they was not willing to help (manager had to get involved couple of times to help) The breakfast is good and fair selection likewise evening dinner good selection with fresh BBQ outside (only downfall I would say is it can get repetitive as same food everyday also to mention there is a lot of seafood options so if you don’t like seafood be aware!)
The room itself had a pleasant balcony with a really good view, the bed was extremely comfortable and overall nice and clean. Bathroom could do with an update as slightly dated.
The hotel has 2 pools, both which are excellent and the pool bar staff are very nice and welcoming. Pool bar also do food which was the best food at the hotel to be honest.
Location wise, more or less everything is in good distance by taxi.
If you are looking for a chilled out beach resort with hardly any children running around and some peace and chilled time then I would recommend Stella di mare. The outside area of the hotel is lovely right on the sea front and excellent for some downtime.

Enjoyed a very pleasant holiday at the Stella di Mare in Sharm el Sheikh. The hotel has everything you might need for a comfortable stay.
Staff are friendly and helpful, the food is of an ok standard, there are two nice swimming pools, lots of places to sunbathe, swimming and snorkelling off the house reef. Thankfully not too many children, which was also a bonus!

This is one of the best properties me and my family have stayed at in Sharm over the last 15 yrs, the staff are absolutely committed to making your stay memorable, we have stayed at many hotels in sharm including the Rixos and many others to name but a few but this surpasses any of them. Yes it’s tired in places but most new builds in Egypt are from day one but the food is just excellent in our opinion and very very well presented in the buffet, beach snack bar (which changes daily) as well as the Asian and the Mediterranean al’a carte.
Rooms are well presented and the cleaners go out of there way to give you what you need to make your stay as pleasant as possible and it was amazing to have different levels to accommodate adults only (16 ) at the top level and the kids area activities one level down and it works very well, overall I’d give this property in Sharm 5/5 and we will be returning in Oct/Nov for another visit.*****🙌🙌

I spent 2 weeks in August 2023 in Stella di Mare.
The resort in really luxury as you arrive in the reception.
We had a room at ground floor. The bed is not super comfortable but fine. Room is large and well equipped.
The restaurant is topical for Russian and east European people, not like the Italians we are use to. The staff is very kind and quick to serve the drinking in all hotels.
We loved the beach (very clean and silent) and the sea in front of the resort is probably the best in Sharm. Full of corals and a lot of fishes.
During week end many local people come so sometimes during the night children are playing.
We had our sub PADI course (strongly suggested) and we went also on boat trips.
The spa is really great with hot water until 20 and every night we had cocktails and relaxing music in the cozy bar.
To sum up I strongly suggest you to book in this resort also for the view and calm

I stayed here for a week and had a blast. The hotel is so majestic and has everything you need -Beach spa pools restaurants coral. And the location is perfect, 15mins walk to naama bay or free shuttle.
Cleanliness- The entire hotel is super clean, literally every inch is spotless. Even the beach toilets! Hamsa (the cleaner of our room) went above and beyond.
Food- The food was so tasty especially the barbecue outside! every bite in that barbecue had flavour! No food poisoning! Mohammed, who served us during breakfast, always had a cheerful and helpful attitude, always going above and beyond.
Entertainment- The animation team was super with lots of activities for adults and children. Every evening the entertainment during dinner was fantastic ranging from dancers to musicians. Antonia, part of the animation team (I suspect she might be the leader) is very talented and cheerful.
Staff- Also the staff are all genuinely nice (e.g waiters and lifeguards), not one of them asked for a tip but they all gave superb service. Ali (who would look after the pool and beach area at night) was constantly going above and beyond to offer his assistance to make our stay even more comfortable.
Nabil on the beach was very friendly and making our stay comfortable. I was scared of swimming, he even offered to help me swim in his free time.
Coral - And the hotel has its own coral which is out of this world! Brilliant place for snorkelling with life jackets available.

Second time here. All crews, life guards, bar tenders, animation teams, restaurant waiters/workers and even room cleaners recognised us immediately! They are always smiling, willig to help and small chatting with us. This time, we have booked garden-view room in the main building. Very convenient going to anywhere, highly recommended!
Room: vintage style (whole hotel is vintage), clean and with a small fridge.
Mosquito: Mar. to April, yes, spray or el-repellent necessary. When we were here in Dec, no problem.
Food: Breakfast is plain (for us), no much choices. Luches and dinners are good. Each night a different theme (Mediterranean, German, Far East, Egyptian, etc.). You always can find something to eat.
Life guards: kind and good service (help to change swimming towels, fix your sunbeds and even offer to clean your sun glasses).
Bar tenders: very kind to our kids, and they ordered everything by themselves and always got extra bags of chips.
Animation team: we love those beautiful girls! Several games and activities for both kids and adults everyday. We enjoyed dancing courses and aqua gyms.

Service: staff are very kind and helpful. We arrived at hotel the late evening and the main restaurant has arranged a small scaled buffet (which was really refreshing after a whole day long travelling). All the staffs at the restaurant, at the bars, by the pool, life guard by the floating docks are very kind, smiling all the time and always providing the best we ordered.
Room: retro style. Our room lies in a bungalow sea view house (though only a small angel of sea view). Clean and comfortable. Cleaning very quickly (seemingly the cleaner is always outside of your door). The shower was the weak point. Water is little and often too hot (not friendly for children).
Food: to the standards. Although changing the topic every day, the 50% of the foods are the same every day. We loved the fruits and enjoyed the strawberry and fig fruit every meal. All kinds of the soft and alcohol drinks are available for the all inclusive guests.
Entertainment: there are many possibilities of all kinds of activities. We have chosen combination of the discovery diving and a boat trip to Tiran Island (with diving). That was the best memory for our family ever. Animation team has many programs every day. But feels like no many participants. Due to shy animation team members, or the lazy guests? Or both?
Location: walking distance (15 min) to Naama bay shopping area (take a short cut acrossing the Genena City). All shops are open after 5pm.
All in all, a nice place for snorkeling vacation.
