Visitors flocking to the stunningly beautiful 5-star InterContinental Abu Soma Resort, since opening last year, have steadily reported that the property provides the ultimate holiday experience.
The InterContinental Hotels Group property, which is on the shores of the Red Sea, has become immensely popular with Middle East travellers because of its proximity to Hurghada and Safaga, the amazing service provided by the staff, and the stunning architecture that includes more than 445 rooms, including 63 suites.
Set amongst landscaped gardens and waterfalls, the resort is situated on a prime private beach boasting more than 1km of pristine white sands and lapping shores. Looking out to the mountains of Sinai, the resort has a state-of-the-art fitness centre, leisure facilities, beach club, swimming pools, horse stables, marina and diving centre. Later this year, guests will also be able to unwind on a testing and challenging 18-hole golf course.
Speaking about the natural beauty that surrounds the property, John Lagos, General Manager, InterContinental Abu Soma Resort, said: “People in this region work very hard and when it comes to holidays they really want to sit back and relax. Understanding the needs of the market, this resort has been designed to provide the most relaxing environment possible – that is why everywhere a visitor sits to take time out, they are surrounded by lush gardens, the trickle of water and can gaze out at amazing views.”
For more adventurous holiday-makers, they are likely to be enticed to explore the crisp, clear seas. A world-renowned top dive spot, the area has for many years attracted beginner and experienced divers.
“Just near the hotel is Ras Abu Soma which is a peninsula surrounded by interesting and delicate coral reefs. This area provides some of the best diving that is available in the entire Red Sea, and it is here – on our doorstep!” commented Lagos.
With palm trees tracing the cove, the ambitious landscaping project that has been undertaken in the area has resulted in a providing a cool, green environment that guests can enjoy from their rooms – which also look out to the vista of the Red Sea. With 445 guest rooms and suites – including two royal suites, three deluxe suites, 19 executive suites, 26 junior suites – all visitors will be able to enjoy modern open-plan design and amazing views.
With nine international food and beverage outlets to choose from at the resort, guests can dine each night on meals ranging from Greek or Italian to Seafood or Oriental. “We have made every effort to provide every convenience possible to our guests,” said Lagos. “That is why every room is complete with a personal safe, mini-bar, satellite television channels and air-conditioning.”
