We spent a wonderful week at the Pickalbatros Sea World Resort in Marsa Alam, and overall, it was one of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed at.
The accommodation was very nice – we had two rooms, both clean and comfortable. The only small issue was that the Wi-Fi didn’t work in one of them.
The hotel staff were absolutely amazing – very kind, helpful, and always willing to assist. The food was excellent with a wide variety of tasty options. Pools and the sea were also great, ideal for both relaxing and having fun.
Our kids especially loved the virtual reality experience available at the hotel – it was a real highlight for them.
A couple of things the hotel could improve:
Sometimes there were no plates available in the buffet, which was frustrating after standing in line.
Also, we occasionally noticed that glasses and plates weren’t perfectly clean. It wasn’t a big issue, and I’ve seen this happen in other hotels too, but it’s something worth paying more attention to.
Overall, we were very happy with our stay and would definitely recommend this hotel – it’s a great choice for a family vacation, and we’d love to come back again.

Everything in this hotel is of the highest standard! The territory and rooms are immaculate in both design and cleanliness. The hotel offers a vast space with numerous pools. You can easily find a quiet spot on the beach or by the pool, or join the animation activities held throughout the day and evening. The food, in my opinion, is delicious and diverse.
The service is outstanding—there is plenty of staff, and everything is done quickly and professionally. On the beach, there is a lagoon where you can swim with fish. For more professional snorkeling, summer might be a better choice, as in January, diving from the pontoon was prohibited. However, the sea in this area looks stunning, and the absence of any infrastructure nearby allows you to fully appreciate its beauty and cleanliness.
Our stay was absolutely enjoyable, and the hotel fully meets its price category. For large families, it is quite convenient that beach equipment can be moved around freely to set up a personalized relaxation spot. Though visually, this might create a sense of chaos, it is ultimately done for the guests’ comfort and convenience.

I recently stayed at this hotel, and overall, it was a great experience. The staff was welcoming and attentive, always ready to assist with any requests. The room was clean, spacious, and well-maintained, with comfortable bedding and modern amenities. The hotel’s location was convenient, close to major attractions and public transport. The breakfast buffet had a variety of delicious options, catering to different tastes. The swimming pool were well-kept, adding to the relaxing experience. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The animators were very friendly and helpful and easy to communicate with. The waiters are very helpful. The best hotel I've ever been to.

The Albatros Sea World Hotel in Egypt is a very pleasant place that offers solid conditions for relaxation, although with some minor shortcomings that may affect the comfort of your stay.
I rate my stay, which I had the pleasure of taking from March 27 to April 3, 2025, as generally very good. The hotel is well-maintained, spacious, and the staff is polite and helpful. Despite a few comments I make below, the overall stay left a positive impression.
One of the main downsides I would like to share was the monotonous food. The same dishes were offered every day, which made meals quite boring. This was especially true of breakfast, which was identical throughout the stay. The queues for dishes prepared "live" were quite long, and the staff had difficulty keeping up with the large number of guests. Perhaps this was due to the fact that the hotel was not fully operational at the peak of the season, but it would have been nice if the culinary offer was more varied. What's more, for those traveling with children, like me, the lack of a children's menu can be a challenge. We had some difficulty finding suitable meals for a 2.5-year-old child. In addition, the snack bar offer was insufficient and its opening hours were too short. The child slept from 12:00 to 15:00, lunches were only served until 14:30, and dinner did not start until 18:00. The snack bars lacked good food options, which made it difficult to satisfy hunger during this time.
Despite the rather windy weather, we enjoyed the heated pools, which were a great solution, especially since the weather at that time was not conducive to swimming in the outdoor pool. Unfortunately, the aqua park area did not have a water heating option, so we could not use it. The hotel should definitely work on heating the water in this part to allow the aqua park to be used regardless of weather conditions.
One of the biggest pluses of the stay was the presence of lifeguards at the pools and in the beach area. There were enough of them, which made us feel safe, especially when traveling with a child. The lifeguards were very nice and helpful – one of them even helped us organize sun loungers by the pool, which was a very nice gesture. The hotel can also boast a nice playground, which provided a lot of fun for our child. Unfortunately, the sand on the playground contained some stones, which was uncomfortable for playing children. In addition, the number of attractions on the playground could be increased. It is also worth considering expanding this area, including additional benches for parents who want to relax while their children play.
Although the indoor pool was available, its condition left much to be desired. It looked abandoned, and the atmosphere around it was not inviting. When the weather was too windy, we wanted to use this pool, but its appearance and technical condition made us not want to stay in this place for long.
To sum up, the stay at Albatros Sea World was successful and definitely a plus, but a few aspects, such as food, the condition of the indoor pool, the lack of amenities for parents on the playground, the snack bar offer, the quality of the sand, and the number of attractions on the playground, should be improved. Despite these minor shortcomings, the hotel offers a comfortable stay and it is worth considering this property for a vacation in Egypt.
