I cannot agree more with the comments of the person who has reviewed below. From the moment we landed in Sharm to the moment we left we felt completly ripped off and will never return. Luckly unlike the person below, we prebooked transfers but heard in the resort off a couple being charged £30 one way from the airport!! what a joke. The Domina was such a disapointment, where do I start?!. Tips, tips, tips all the time-everyone is after them. I have stayed in better $20 motel rooms in the states. They are tired and old and the bedspread is like a piece of old carpet they have ripped up from the floor. In the brochure they boast all rooms have a ''seaview'' we got a view of a dusty old road. Watch out for the cleaners knocking on your door to fold a towel into the shape of an animal and then charge you for the privilege. The food was the worst I have probably ever tasted on a HB deal. Everytime we went to the Coral restaurant we had to ask for cutlery as they never had enough staff to clear the tables, at breakfast I started to give up and had to resort to spreading jam on bread with a teaspoon. As said below, the prices in the hotel are daylight robbery. The resort is boring in the evenings, all the entertainment is based around the Italian and Russian guests. The positive side is the pool which is well maintained. Just watch out for the sunbeds-we saw at least one person a day fall off them. We will never return to Sharm and will definetly stick to Dubai in the future.

Having read the other reviews, both before and after our visit, we must all have stayed at a different place!! This is actually the equivalent of about 4-5 hotels on a vast site (around 1800 people). Yes the staff were mostly helpful(especially if you continually tipped them) and the room clean but the place clearly has problems. We arrived around 10 p.m. and agreed a price for a taxi to the hotel - we were going to be charged £11 which was high but we were tired. Magically the price changed to £22 during the 5 minute ride. We argued the point but the taxi driver would not give in (and even tried to demand a tip) and the hotel were no help at all although we asked them to help. This was the start of a holiday during which we felt ripped off on a daily basis both inside and outside of the resort. If this type of thing doesn't bother you then by all means go here. Expect to pay at least double the price on the resort for everything - drinks, food, clothing gifts etc. Outside of the resort may be cheaper but you need to be very careful as the culture is to get as much money as possible out of what they see as walking wallets. The "5 star" rooms have no kettle, no iron, the "safe" is your mini bar - which in some rooms actually has a key (a whole new meaning to frozen assets), and the mini bar holds water and cola which it keeps barely cool. There are no baths only showers and they run out of hot water when everybody leaves the poolside to shower fir the evening - mine had mould round the tiles. The entertainment concentrates on the Italians and Russians. There was really very little to do in the evenings. The pyramids etc are truly worth a visit, Luxor is nicer than Cairo. The resort is very large but well kept and the Taf Taf buses are always around to transport you. The food was as you might expect from an extremely large resort - not often hot and of variable and sometimes poor quality. They can't do meat - it was almost always tough. We were hugely overcharged (even by London standards) for a T-bone that was unedible. We were all glad we went but disappointed in our treatment and would not return to this resort.

We stayed in the Domina Aquamarine pool hotel for 10 days and had a great time. You are so well looked after there, the people are very friendly and very hard workers. The resort is big but there are buses called taf tafs to take you round. We didnt wait more than 5 minutes for a bus and they ran 24 hours.
We originally went b&b but after eating at one of the restaurants on the first night we realised how it was very expensive and a bottle of wine ranged from £12 to £40 english pounds. So we upgraded to half board for £80 each for 8 nights and there we had a buffet selection with lost and lots of food and lots and lots of wine or beer or soft drinks.
the floating pool in the sea was great and the fish are amazing to see when snorkelling, the hotel provides you with towels for the pool and beach and you can hire snokelling equipment too.
Naama Bay was an experience, stick to the main street, the side streets are full of the dodgy shops with men telling u they are blind and need money so try stay clear and say no thanks as they will back off. Taxis back, set a price before you get in the car theydrive like maniacs and the cars feel like they are going to fall apart. best thing to do is stick to the hotles budget taxis, they're the safest.
a word of warning when you get to the airport they're are men offering you trolleys simply say no thanks as they expect tips and ask for two pounds. Also when u go to the coach there are men that have nothing to do with the buses putting your bags on and then they demand a tip they ask for pounds but have a bit of change ready and just give a few pence. They are really naughty, i was sat on the coach and i saw one of them go into a womens purse whilst she was looking for change and start taking notes out. luckily the bus driver saw and shooed him away. just beware!
all in all a great place and great resort. i loved domina coral bay.

Hi just arrived back from this destination. First i would like to say thanks to the staff in the whole of the resort they cant do enough for you. The room was lovely best ive stayed in yet and cleaned every day. The cleaner also made animals out of our towels which was really nice. Domina Coral Bay was spotless ive never seen a place with so many staff working every hour every day. There are gardners and cleaners everywhere you look. The swimming pool at Aquamarine was so nice, big and relaxing with a swim up bar. I would recommend this hotel to anyone. The time at the resort is not an extra hour ahead of Egypt time its the same just thought i should say that as people were saying it was different, it may have changed i dont know but its the same as anywhere else in Egypt.
Now bad news me and my friend are quite young 19 and 24 and are fussy eaters but the food at the main restaurant is the worst ive had. Not great option and alot of people getting bad stomachs. But the staff once again are brilliant! Also the beach you can not go from the sand straight into the sea as it is protected so you have to walk out on a path way into the sea where there are 2 small salt sea swimming pools but you are also aloud in the sea there but theres fish all around you. Theres no shade though and thats not good in 42 degrees heat! All in all i would recommend this hotel and resort for any age who want a relaxing, hot and very nice hotel rooms but that aint fussy eaters or people who dont love there food so much. I would go back but the food needs to improve. Also i loved the TafTafs they were great every 5 mins take you where you want its very easy to get used to. Good chilled out holiday!
