재즈 라마야 리조트

Truly great experience. Room cleaning service: absolutely fantastic. Food available at the buffet: lots of worldwide cousines to choose from, Egyptian rice was top tier. Overall service: made me feel like at home, whole crew was kind and welcoming. Animation team: energetic and talented. I will definitely come back to this resort.

On WiFi: As of June 2025, no internet issues detected. The entire hotel, including the beach and even the pier, is perfectly blanketed with signal. The internet is responsive and fast — Reels, YouTube, Telegram load in a flash. I feel confident enough to state that this is one of the best WiFi setups I’ve ever encountered in a hotel of this size and guest volume. You won’t need a local SIM — you’ll be online everywhere within the resort. Each room features a dedicated access point from HPE Aruba’s enterprise-grade solution — your WiFi is in good hands. On the Beach: The promotional photos of the shoreline were misleading. Turns out, the entire beachfront along the hotel and sunbeds is permanently off-limits for swimming. Not temporarily — permanently. The shore area isn’t fit for swimming: it’s shallow, filled with sharp rocks and micro-mussels, and this side of the bay is technically a protected reserve. During low tide — which, in early June, happened daily — the receding water reveals a Mars-like landscape. Definitely not the time for Instagram photos — the view is bleak. So, no post-volleyball dives into the sea — you’ll be running for several minutes to the other side of the bay or to the pier, and then walking another 200 meters over the protected area just to get to swimmable water. Your alternative: a single shower column with four heads, awkwardly located in the middle of the beach. For 200 umbrellas = 400 loungers — one shower is laughably insufficient and poorly placed. Same goes for the only available toilet, also centrally located in the beachfront restaurant. To be fair, though — it’s impeccably clean and always smells fresh. That toilet alone earns a solid five stars. I actually liked the umbrellas: huge, low, thatched structures with tables and hooks for bags and clothes. On-demand, the helpful staff will bring soft cushions for your loungers — and drinks, all day long. Towel exchange is refreshingly hassle-free: you toss used ones in a basket at your door, and the next morning a fresh set appears in a bag on the handle. Downside: you have to carry the towels to and from the beach yourself. Overall? A major disappointment not having direct or quick access from beach to water. And that’s true for all hotels on this side of the bay. Probably the deal-breaker that’ll keep us from coming back. On Water and Reef: Early June: surface and depths up to 10 meters were at +26°C in the mornings — refreshing at first, then quickly comfortable for extended swims. As the day progresses, water above the reef hits +28°C, and over the shallow sandy entry — up to +30°C. If you’re into gentle sandy entries, the beach near Steigenberger is ideal. Kids will love it. Just like in northern Italy, you’ll be wading 100 meters in knee-deep water before it gets anywhere near swimmable. The pier takes you to the reef edge, where the drop is immediate — around 10 meters deep. On a good-visibility day, you’ll see the bottom. When clarity drops, li
