Dolphin Continental is a nice place – I have been there several times. Things to like: 1. Friendly staff 2. Nice green garden - in the middle of it an area where you can enjoy the sea wind while sitting in the shade. 3. Fine swimming pool 4. Immediately at the beach - the beach is much cleaner than the public beaches near Quseir 5. The sea is a bit different than one may expect: the sea in front of the hotel is not deep enough to swim, but it's nice to walk (bring watershoes). Just right of the hotel there is a deeper area in the sea where swimming is possible - the guard at the beach will point it out. 6. Quseir is at a nice walking distance, especially if one walks over the beach (e.g., on a summer evening). From Quseir, it's easy to take a taxi back to the hotel. 7. Compared to other places at the Red Sea, Quseir is a town with more history and charm. 8. While humidity can be rather high near the sea in Quseir itself, the hotel is just far enough from Quseir to enjoy a more pleasant breeze and less humidity. 9. Far away from mass tourism - a variety of guests (group of divers, program for children with special needs, individuals taking time for reflection, couples and families, Egyptians and foreigners, etc.), with enough space/privacy for each. 10. Good food (buffet or served at table, depending on number of guests). 11. Airconditioned room with good bed, kettle, small desk, etc. 12. Free drinking water (daily bottles and refill option in restaurant)

The hotel is charming and very clean. It has a beautiful garden carefully maintained and is right on the beach front. The beach has sunbeds and umbrellas and the beach towels are provided. However, the staff left the strongest impression - the receptionist and the manager who were patient and tried to meet every request of ours, the chef who cooked a special lunch and breakfast for us and all the waiters who kindly took care of us. They really pampered us during our short stay.

The beach is clean and fully equipped, but it is impossible to swim there. There's a long shallow stretch, but it's rocky and swarming with starfish and there are also sea urchins. There's a sandy public beach though just to the left of the hotel. That beach is dirty, but the sea is good to swim in.

Wir waren mit 8 Frauen 2 Übernachtungen da, das angeschlossene autistische Zentrum sehr liebevoll.

It was nice to have a swimming pool, it was 42 Celsius! Newly remodeled rooms, but not completed.

When we booked, it was our understanding that it was all inclusive, but beware, it is not. No alcoholic beverages available or even allowed, although abundant, the food is institutional in quality. Only one small bottle of water was given per person per day, this is ridiculous! It's the desert, it's hot (42 Celsius during our stay), when we asked for more, they said we could buy water bottles. Nobody said anything about refilling our bottles at the restaurant, we found that out later. Staff housing right behind rooms, noisy. Shower floor was VERY slippery and dangerous. Sometimes no water. TV broken, window didn't latch. Very poor instructions/directions when checking in. Book the Radisson! Not far from here and it's worth every penny.
