Overall Ratings & Reviews SUNRISE Crystal Bay Resort - Grand Select

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Best Resort in Hurghada Without a Doubt Sunrise Crystal Bay is hands down the best resort I’ve ever stayed at in Hurghada. From the moment we arrived, everything was top-notch. The resort is beautiful, well-maintained, and offers a true luxury experience from start to finish. If you’re planning to stay here, I highly recommend booking in the Posh Club. It takes your entire experience to another level. Exclusive areas, premium service, total relaxation. It made our trip unforgettable. What really made the stay special was the service. Huge shoutout to Hussien. This man genuinely cares. He looked after me and my family like royalty and made sure everything was perfect. He’s professional, kind, and on top of every little detail. Hussien is simply the best of the best. If you’re thinking about booking Sunrise Crystal Bay, do it. You’ll be glad you did. Already counting down the days until we return. Five stars all the way.

The a la carte restaurants don’t quite deliver on what i would call 5* dining

The resort is amazing, I have been several times but there was an issue with the booking we were unable to resolve. Staff said it was due to the booking made via expedia

Disappointing, does not feel like 5 star Check in-long and stressful Housekeeping- bedding not getting changed leading to allergies/skin reactions/unable to sleep due to itching Main restaurant-nice food but repetitive Entertainment-lacking in evening Pool bar- helpful & friendly staff Quite hotel, nice grounds, plenty of sun beds Lack of shade in hot weather Would not visit again

Outstanding hotel with amazing staff.

Beautiful property, amazing grounds and beach. Food was basic and staff are slow and no attention to details (missing towels, stocked minibar, missing cutlery etc).

So far as the hotel is concerned I do not have a single complaint about. The rooms and public areas were clean and well tended, the gardens are a delight. All the staff we encountered were very friendly and bent over backwards to provide excellent service. A special shout out to Romel in Yades - though there were many others whose names I did not get; he served us every breakfast and lunch. We also had massages in the Spa which were excellent. The only area of concern was in respect of the beauty salon, we were offered and accepted on my part 2 x facials and 2 x manicure my partner also had a 2 x pedicure. He was reasonably happy with his pedicure, but the manicure and facial fell well short of what I would expect. Facial - no cleanse at start just 3 consecutive masks; each wiped off which a damp sponge not properly cleansed and lastly a lick of moisturiser whole time 23 minutes- usual time one hour, Manicure no finger soak no hand massage, poor filing of the nails used a sawing motions when it should be one way rough and hurried treatment of cuticle, but worst of all the clippers etc were not sterilised between customers. Total time 17 minutes usual time one hour. As the deal included two I went back to see if that had been a bad day - but know just even quicker and new clear nail polish was applied over old instead of removing it. I doubt any of the staff are professionally trained.

An excellent and memorable holiday. The hotel was great and the staff were exceptionally attentive and accommodating. We had access to the posh club which has a 24 hour butler.

Listen, this resort is amazing!!! We were sooo impressed with everything. The food options and the quality of the food is phenomenal and there is always something you will find to enjoy. The only thing we weren’t crazy about was the far walk from our room. Which was completely our fault because we chose sea side view and it was an AMAZING view but it was so far from the lobby and restaurant etc but apart from that, the experience here was perfect. We will definitely come back soon. Thanks for an unforgettable experience!

We stayed for 10 days in one of their Junior suites, and while we had a great time, I'm not sure I would rate Crystal Bay as a 5 star hotel. It is however definitely a very good 4 . The hotel has a very large footprint so if you're situated down near the lagoon (as we were) then it can be a bit of a hike to get to the main part of the hotel. The flip side of this is though that the hotel doesn't feel crowded and getting things like loungers or a drink is no problem at all. There is genuinely nothing majorly negative I can say about this hotel, the staff are amazing (shout out to Sameh at the Oasis beach bar), the grounds are immaculate, and the food in the a la carte restaurants is fantastic (Try the Kashmiri Lamb Rogan Josh at Manohar!!!). If I had to mark it down it would be based on the consistency between bars/restaurants i.e. a coffee or drink in one bar can be quite different to the next bar. Also, the people trying to sell you spa or beauty treatments while you are just lying by the beach is quite annoying (we had 4 approaches on our first morning), although we did discover you can grab a red flag from the towel station to combat this.

The place is impressive. The best resort I have ever visited. Very clean, with many choices in food and drinks. What makes this place special is its people, a big thank you for the perfect hospitality to Mado, Jimmy, Cooper and Crush from animation team also Aziz from Housekeeping management team. Of course I'll be back next year.

Great hotel, staff was amazing they went above and beyond to make our stay exceptional. Food was so delicious and so many varieties. Zachariah the assistant front desk manager provided a great customer service, the chef on the grill station, the housekeeping manager,Adam in the restaurant and the beach team were so friendly and helpful. Highly recommend and we will be back again.

The hotel was nice - rooms were basic but the amenities were good. I liked the variety of food available which always tasted fresh. Sometimes felt the food was similar between restaurants. The kids areas need more work and more things available as the play area is outdoors and very basic and some of the events are in the evening when kids are asleep.

Friendly staff. All inclusive food is great, big rooms very clean. Pretty environment nice pool area nice beach (with saftey net to prevent bigger fish and jelly fish to enter the lagoon.) nice shisha bar (not all inclusive but very worth the money!) souvenir shop. childfriendly animators. it was my second stay at this hotel and i recommend highly.

Everything was amazing

Only one resturant had great food Mangal with chief Mohamad was amazing. All other resturants did not have great food. Front manager Shareef and staff were very nice.

Very good place to stay

I would not recommend this place due to the behavior of staff at checkout. I had accidentally left one pool towel at the pool and did not have the pool card to return. The check out staff did not believe my account and charged me 15$ for a pool towel. It was just a horrible experience.

If you are looking to spend the best time in Hurghada, Sunrise Crystal Bay is the place to go. Food is great, lots of options that would suit every palate. We were a family of 11 people and we always had something to do. kids friendly activities were great. I would like to specifically mention the amazing care and support of Ahmed Youness who accommodated my requests during our 6 days stay. Mr Ali and Ashraf from Guest relations have the best attitude and conflict resolution skills with very happy manners.

It was a great vacation, the atmosphere was excellent, the receptionist staff were friendly and helpful and upgrade our room from standard to deluxe, and the rooms were clean and comfortable also there were a lot of activities on the beach and pool, the food in the main restaurant provided a low variety and quality of food but the a la cart restaurants were amazing my recommendation Elia, mangal and Indian restaurants The snacks in the beach restaurant was delicious and tasty (yades) also the animation team was so kind, joyful and helpful finally overall the accommodation was very good special thanks to mr.mazen the head of indian restaurant for his advice and helping us to establish the best a la carte restaurants
