Our stay at Stella Di Mare exceeded all our expectations. This hotel truly deserves its five-star rating in every aspect.
From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with genuine warmth and professionalism. The reception team was exceptionally friendly, attentive, and always ready to help with a smile. Every interaction made us feel valued and well looked after.
The service throughout the hotel was outstanding. The bar staff were incredibly polite, cheerful, and efficient, creating a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere every day. The restaurant team also deserves special recognition. They worked tirelessly while remaining kind, welcoming, and attentive to every guest. It was clear that customer satisfaction is their priority, and their positive attitude made every meal even more enjoyable.
The hotel itself is beautifully maintained, very clean, and offers everything needed for a relaxing holiday. The overall organisation, attention to detail, and hospitality reflect a very high standard.
If we could suggest only two small improvements, they would be:
- adding soft mattresses or cushions to the sun loungers for extra comfort;
- serving watermelon more regularly at lunch and dinner, especially during the hot season.
These are only minor suggestions and in no way diminish our excellent experience.
We had a wonderful holiday and would happily return. A sincere thank you to the entire Stella Di Mare team for their exceptional care, kindness, and dedication. Highly recommended!

We had a wonderful experience at Stella Di Mare from every point of view. Sharm El Sheikh is a beautiful place, and the hotel made our stay even more special.
The food was excellent, with a great variety and very good quality. The service was outstanding, from the reception staff to all the hotel employees. A special thanks and big greetings to Mr. Salah for his kindness and professionalism.
The cleanliness was also impeccable — everything was perfectly clean and well organized. We truly felt comfortable and welcomed during our entire stay.
We will definitely come back again with great pleasure. Highly recommended!

I recently stayed at Stella Di Mare Beach Hotel & Spa in Sharm El Sheikh. The resort is very large and visually impressive with plenty of space and facilities, but overall it feels like a property that could benefit from some updating.
The rooms were cleaned daily and maintained to a good standard which was appreciated. However, despite the size of the resort, some areas felt a little dusty and as though they could do with more consistent attention from the cleaning staff outside of the rooms.
The staff were genuinely lovely! They were friendly, polite and always willing to help, which definitely added to the experience. The spa and pool facilities were excellent and were a real highlight of the stay, offering a relaxing and well maintained environment.
One downside was the entertainment room. The area with the pool table felt very worn out and quite knackered, which was disappointing. Breakfast was another weak point; the selection stayed exactly the same every day, and by day three it became quite boring.
It’s also worth noting that although the hotel is marketed as a beach hotel, there isn’t much of an actual beach. The setting is more of a cliffside area overlooking the sea, which may not suit guests expecting a traditional sandy beach experience.
Overall, I’d rate the hotel 3.5 out of 5 stars. It has good facilities and fantastic staff, but could really benefit from refurbishment in certain areas, improved cleanliness consistency, more variety in the food, and clearer expectations around the beach offering.

Hotel is beautiful. Staff are so helpful. The grounds are beautiful with lovely lighting at night. We are in the main building floor 7 which is where the reception and the main bar are located so perfect for us. The food is well presented and you have lots of choice, there was also a outside barbecue which was very nice too. I would certainly recommend the Stella Di Mare Beach Hotel and Spa.

Overall, we had a very good stay. The hotel itself is beautiful, with a well-maintained facility and a great location right by the sea. The staff across all areas – reception, housekeeping, and service – were consistently very friendly and welcoming, which made the experience especially pleasant.
There are, however, a few points that could be improved. The mattresses are quite soft and may be due for renewal. Additionally, the organization around meals could be clearer. On our arrival day, we sat down for lunch without being informed about the buffet closing time. While we had just started eating, the food was cleared away, yet we were still charged the full buffet price. When addressing this at checkout, the process took quite long, and the responsibility was ultimately placed on us, despite the unclear communication. Given the situation and the relatively small amount, this felt unnecessarily rigid and poorly handled.
Regarding the affiliated diving center, it should be noted that it promotes a higher standard than what is actually delivered, while relying on its association with the hotel to justify higher prices. The quality of the dives and equipment was ultimately comparable to other, less expensive providers. I will address this separately in a dedicated review.
In summary, the hotel experience itself was very good and largely deserves a high rating due to the staff and overall atmosphere. However, the issues mentioned above slightly diminish the overall impression.
