Pickalbatros Laguna Vista Hotel - Egypt

Package price from, per person sharing

For travellers who want water-based entertainment without giving up direct Red Sea access, Nabq Bay makes the combination particularly easy. This Egypt holiday package brings together return flights from South Africa, airport transfers, accommodation and selected meals, while guests can alternate between the private beach, aqua park, pools, snorkelling, spa time and organised activities. Families have especially strong facilities, but couples can also find quieter corners and dedicated accommodation options.

Property Overview

Pickalbatros Laguna Vista Hotel - Sharm El Sheikh is a large 554-room beachfront resort in Nabq Bay, spread across extensive landscaped grounds beside the Red Sea. Thirteen pools, an aqua park, seven restaurants, multiple bars, sports facilities, a kids club and Omega Spa create a highly self-contained stay. Accommodation ranges from 45 sqm Deluxe Rooms to family rooms, bungalows, suites, swim-up categories and one private-pool villa. The overall character is active, family-friendly and comprehensive rather than intimate or highly exclusive.

How far is the nearest beach?

The resort is directly beachfront, with a private sandy beach extending for approximately 250 metres. A 550-metre jetty crosses the shallow reef and provides lagoon access points at around 150, 330 and 550 metres, giving guests several options for reaching the water. The shoreline has a sandy and coral slope, so suitable footwear can be useful in some areas. Sun loungers, umbrellas, towels and beach facilities are provided, while the reef setting supports snorkelling and diving.

Distance from Airport

Sharm El Sheikh International Airport (SSH) is approximately 10 km from Pickalbatros Laguna Vista, with the road transfer normally taking around 15 minutes under typical conditions. No domestic flight, ferry or secondary connection is required after arrival. The Nabq Bay setting keeps the resort close to the airport while placing guests directly on the Red Sea. SOHO Square and other Sharm El Sheikh attractions can be reached separately when travellers want time beyond the resort.

Rooms

The resort has 554 rooms, with entry-level Deluxe Garden, Pool and Sea View Rooms all measuring 45 sqm. Family Rooms increase to 75 sqm, bungalows provide roughly 55 to 65 sqm, Junior Suites 65 sqm and Executive Suites 150 sqm, while Presidential Suites reach 200 sqm. Selected Deluxe categories offer swim-up access, and a single 750 sqm sea-view villa has its own private pool. The accommodation range is unusually broad, although most inventory remains conventional resort rooms rather than private villas.

Food & Drink

Dining is extensive, with seven restaurants supported by a broad bar programme. Soprano focuses on Italian food, Tagine on Oriental cuisine, Culina on seafood, while Golden Buddha and Concerto provide Asian and international à la carte options; Capitano and the bakery add more casual choices. Eight bars cover lobby, terrace, pool, beach, aqua-park and entertainment settings. The resort operates on an All Inclusive basis, with buffet meals, selected beverages and access to common facilities included.

Experiences & Activities

The leisure programme is one of the resort’s strongest features. Guests have access to 13 pools, including an indoor pool and surf pool, plus an aqua park with adult and children’s slides, tennis, padel, multi-purpose sports courts, mini golf and a water-sports and diving centre. Alba Kids Club provides supervised activities for children, while daily entertainment extends into evening shows. The combination gives families and active travellers plenty to do without leaving the property.

SPA & Wellness

Omega Spa provides a substantial wellness offer rather than a basic treatment room. Facilities include sauna, hammam, steam bath, Jacuzzi, pool, massage services, beauty salon and hairdresser, while a gym supports guests who prefer a more active routine. The spa complements the resort’s extensive pools, beach and sports infrastructure and gives adults a quieter counterpoint to the aqua park and family programme. Wellness is therefore meaningful, although it is not the defining focus of the overall stay.
