Monte Carlo Sharm El Sheikh Resort

Visited in December and was very disappointed. Unlike other resorts in Sharm, drinking water bottles were no where to be seen at this resort. I mean even in the restaurant! The other odd thing I found when dining in the restaurant was that the waiters dont come to your table to ask if you want drinks etc either - you have to get drinks yourself. We always tip waiters when they bring your drinks and I think this is something this resort needs to allow - table service for drinks is a must! oh and the lazy river is basically stagnant! No flow to it at all! You will not float around.

I recently stayed at the Monte-Carlo Sharm Resort & SPA, and unfortunately, my experience was far from pleasant. There were several issues that really detracted from what was supposed to be a relaxing vacation. To start with, the check-in process was painfully slow, which set a frustrating tone from the beginning. The hotel’s decor felt overly garish and tacky – an unfortunate mix of outdated design elements that seemed to be stuck in the 80s. The whole place felt worn and in need of a serious renovation. The room we were given had not been cleaned at all upon arrival, which was incredibly disappointing. Speaking of the room, it was far from what I would expect from a 5-star hotel. The furnishings and mattress were old and worn, giving the room an uncomfortable, dated "80s chic" vibe. Additionally, we had issues with the water – it took a solid five minutes for the hot water to come through, and even then, it was lukewarm at best. The shower never got hot enough, and we ended up using the bathtub instead of the shower cubicle, which was incredibly inconvenient. The resort’s overall theme continued this trend of cheap, tacky design, and it seemed like every corner was focused on maximizing profit at the expense of guest comfort. But perhaps the most frustrating moment was when I had just finished snorkeling and accidentally swallowed some salty seawater. When I tried to ask for a simple glass of water at the beach bar, the bartender refused to serve me because my wristband had fallen off in the sea. I wasn’t asking for alcohol or bottled water – just water to rinse my mouth. This experience really encapsulates the overall attitude of the hotel, where guest satisfaction clearly takes a back seat to cost-cutting measures. Additionally, I came across numerous reviews mentioning bedbugs and inappropriate behavior from the animation team toward young women. In hindsight, I wish I had paid more attention to these warnings before booking my stay. Overall, I would not recommend the Monte-Carlo Sharm Resort & SPA. The hotel promises luxury and 5-star service but delivers a barely 3-star experience. If you're looking for a relaxing vacation, this is definitely not the place for you. There are plenty of other resorts that offer better service, comfort, and value. Don’t make the mistake I did – look elsewhere.

Staff are excellent, you absolutely can't fault them. They try super hard to make sure you have a good time. Rooms are spacious, but a little tired. Nothing really too wrong with them though. Location is good, close to Sharm old town. The beach is on a cliff, you can't really walk straight into the water but there is a pier with steps that leads you into the water. The water is beautiful with tropical fish 🐠🐟. Farsha Café is a 5 minute taxi and is well worth a visit, absolutely amazing night out. The food in the hotel is decent, above average for an all inclusive, but isn't going to blow your mind.

This is a well-maintained hotel with beautiful grounds. It boasts easy access to the sea and a stunning reef. The cuisine is quite tasty for Egypt. Our room was excellently located in a building right by the pool with a sea view (front line), conveniently close to both the sea and the restaurant, and very near the main pool. The highlight for me was the large, well-equipped, complimentary gym on-site. Special thanks to trainer Yulia, who spent over 10 hours with me in training sessions during my stay. The only downside was the animation team. Their choice of loud, unpleasant music made it noisy in our room throughout the day, even with the windows shut. After a prolonged struggle with them, I contacted the manager, Mr. Shady, who was incredibly helpful. He managed to reduce the noise and improve the quality of the music. Overall, I enjoyed my time here and would recommend it as a good place for rest.

We recently spent an incredible week at Monte Carlo in Sharm El Sheikh, and it was nothing short of amazing! From start to finish, our entire family felt warmly welcomed and exceptionally well cared for. The resort offered everything we could have wished for, and more. The highlight of our stay was undoubtedly our wedding celebration, which Monte Carlo's team planned and executed beyond our expectations. Every detail was perfect, and it was clear how much effort and passion went into making it a day to remember. Special thanks to Atef and Mahmoud, who went above and beyond to organize the event. Atef deserves particular recognition for hosting the most beautiful wedding celebration on November 10th. Atef also arranged daily family dinners for our party of 24 at the resort’s exquisite à la carte restaurants, creating unforgettable dining experiences each time. His thoughtfulness and attention to detail ensured that we all had exactly what we needed throughout the week. The entire Monte Carlo team was incredibly helpful, friendly, and service-minded, providing us with the best treatment imaginable. The luxurious facilities, breathtaking surroundings, and delicious dining options made every moment at the resort feel special. This resort holds a special place in our hearts. Thank you to the wonderful team at Monte Carlo for making our stay so memorable. To anyone considering a stay in Sharm El Sheikh, we wholeheartedly recommend Monte Carlo Resort—it is the epitome of luxury and hospitality. Warm regards Zorina & Nis
