One of the best resort I have visited till now. The receptionists were really helpful ,professional yet personable and friendly. Great staff who knew how to offer a luxury 5+ stars experience ! The rooms ( we had two front beach suits with pools ) was well equipped and the service was excellent ( Thank you Mustafa and Dahi) . From the room , we could view the sea and feel the cool breeze. The location of our room was absolutely perfect, directly overlooking a gorgeous red sea view and a long stranded beach. It felt like home , very clean and clear water, a very good place to relax and chill. The scenery was beautiful and it was a relieve to walk in such a quiet , tranquil and peaceful vibes . The view of the sunset over the red sea from that point was mesmerizing. I must say the location of the resort is perfect for people who are looking for a relaxing vacation far away from crowd, it is literally a hidden gem !! Our stay at the hotel was for 9 nights , the nearby excursions are breath taking , we went safari, ref sea tours, Scuba diving ..etc limitless fun and sun ! He we had a memorable time together.

Great Stay with a Fun Animation Team! I really enjoyed my time at the hotel. The rooms were clean, the service was great, and everything was well-organized. The animation team was a highlight of my stay—they were friendly, energetic, and made the experience so much more fun with their activities and shows. I’d recommend this hotel for a relaxing and enjoyable vacation!

I think it's the best hotel I've been to, we loved it! When it comes to the common areas (pool, dining hall) everything was spotless, staff was very nice, food and drinks were amazing! The rooms were very nice and modern, super clean with the daily filtered water delivery. The whole area was very nice, good gym and great jogging trail (around 5km). We would love to come back!

Clean, Super-Friendly, Great Services, Top Location We visited Jaz Maraya as two couples, with one diver in each. For reference, we’ve stayed at top 5-star resorts across the Mediterranean—Turkey, Greece, Spain, etc.—so we were curious how Jaz Maraya and Egypt would compare. In short: Jaz Maraya absolutely holds its own, if not surpasses some. It’s spotless, well-maintained, offers great food, has super-friendly staff, and is ideally located near stunning dive sites. Plus, it's excellent value for money with all the facilities needed for a relaxing vacation. The hotel sits in a cluster of Jaz resorts around Coraya Bay, just 5 km from Marsa Alam International Airport and 8 km from Port Ghalib. Aside from these, the surroundings are mostly semi-desert, though excursions like Luxor are offered (by bus or taxi). Still, with shared facilities among Jaz hotels—including kid-friendly options—everything needed for a peaceful holiday is right there. Jaz Maraya is beachfront and consists of low-rise buildings (no more than three stories) arranged to create quiet gardens, pools, and playgrounds. While it may lack the opulence of some Turkish 5-stars in décor, it boasts a modern, spacious, and practical design, offering shelter from wind, heat, and sun. The buildings, gardens, and pools are immaculately clean, with lawns and flowerbeds manicured daily (they really are 😉). Our rooms were spacious, with an extra front room ideal for kids, a large bathroom, a bedroom, and a private balcony. Smart design ensures rooms face away from the entertainment area—perfect for light sleepers. Housekeeping was top-notch, with daily cleaning, regular linen changes (or more if requested), and a fresh-smelling room every evening. The minibar was well-stocked—water, tea, and coffee were free; other items available at a charge. What stood out most was the genuine warmth of the staff—from management to gardeners, everyone was kind, efficient, and helpful. Most staff spoke at least English, German, or French. The cheerful atmosphere is a testament to great management. Special thanks to Mr. Morsi for his assistance with our specific requests. Dining options were excellent. Lunch is available at the main restaurant and by the pool, while breakfast and dinner are served buffet-style in the main restaurant. Chef Badawy and his team offer delicious Mediterranean dishes with an Egyptian twist, alongside staples like pasta, sushi, and burgers. They’re also attentive to dietary needs—just ask. I’d rate the food as outstanding. Several bars serve fresh cocktails and standard drinks, and poolside waiters make regular rounds to keep guests refreshed. Coraya Beach features gorgeous house reefs, a paradise for divers and snorkelers. Our divers used the Coraya Divers Center and were thrilled by the range of facilities and helpful, friendly staff. Beginners can safely explore the reefs right off the pier, while experienced divers can hop on a zodiac to nearby dive sites. As a snorkeler, I was amazed by the vibrant coral and colorful fish—at least 20 species. Convenient piers allow easy reef access without damaging the ecosystem or risking injury. Ideal seasons are late winter to spring or autumn—summer suits those who enjoy heat. Another huge plus: Marsa Alam is practically bug-free! Unlike most of the Med, where mosquito spray is essential after sunset, I only spotted one fly—likely brought in with someone’s luggage 😉. Entertainment during our stay was excellent—not too loud or pushy, but engaging and enjoyable. Special thanks to Zizo, Chico, Angelina, and the rest of the team for keeping us smiling. In conclusion, Jaz Maraya is amazing value for money and I wholeheartedly recommend it. Five stars for all services—this was our first visit, but we’re already planning our return later this year.

We went to Jaz Maraya for a one week holiday with our 2 daughters. What a great escape during the winter in our country! Amazing and beautiful hotel, not too big, with very friendly and nice people who work there. The people from the reception, from the bar, from the restaurant, from the beach bar, the waiters, the swimming pool guards, the cleaning service, the kitchen staff, a BIG applause to all of you!! Very nice room with very good beds! The food was also very delicious and enough varieties! We also enjoyed the Sea Food and Egyptian restaurants! We went on an organised trip by Tui on the VIP Elite boat with 2 snorkeling stops, and we were very excited to see the manatee and many water turtles! What an experience! We will definitely come back!
