Great shopping, designer names, lovely ice rink and magical musical water fountain. We were very lucky as Soho Square was just outside of our hotel, the Island View Resort.

I didn't stay at this place but they had a van arranged to pick me up everyday from my hotel to the diving centre. It was the first time me and my sister and cousin went on vacation in Sharm or even Egypt. So I would like to warn the people to be very cautious on buying stuff or souvenirs... More

Made up of 3-4 small beaches. We always managed to get loungers right at the shores edge. Cost about 20 Egyptian pounds for the day for 3 loungers.
