Stella Di Mare Beach Hotel & Spa The hotel is a 25-minute taxi ride from Sharm airport, and we pre-booked the taxi with the hotel by e-mail a week before our arrival at a cost of US $25, chargeable to our hotel check-out bill. The taxi driver was standing outside the airport building entrance with our name on a sign. For our return to the airport, we paid at the taxi office desk, which is just inside the hotel entrance next to the cash machines. We paid with an English £20 note. The cash machine nearest to the taxi desk gives out small bills which was handy for tips. We were given a room overlooking the pool, but the pool music was so loud in the room that we went back to the reception and asked for a quieter room. We were given a room overlooking Nama Bay which was peaceful most of the time. The room was of a nice size and had a free mini bar, tea, coffee, milk pods, kettle, bottles of water everyday were given every day, and a range of toiletries was in the bathroom. There was bathrobes and slippers in the room. The air con worked well and was quiet on the low-speed setting. The spacious bathroom had a bath with a shower at one end. The TV had a few English movie channels and English news channels. The safe was so small that our laptop would not fit inside. The food in the main restaurant, La Terazza, was nice and there was always something we enjoyed eating. The house wine was enjoyable, but strangely they do not have diet lemonade anywhere in the hotel. The set menu for all-inclusive guests in the Corallo Rosso restaurant was very nice, so much so we eat there many times, it was like eating out in a high-class restaurant. La Scogliera cliff top Asian restaurant was a nice place to be in the evening, it overlooks the sea. We also tried their Romantic Dinner which was enjoyable. It is located at a separate place to the main eating area, and the staff made the area look very special with red flower petals, candles burning, soft music, and dim lighting. The Beach Bar was a nice place to take lunch. There is entertainment during the evening which was nice as it gives somewhere to go in the evening and have a drink while watching something. One day we took a 15-minute walk to Nama Bay going through the very quiet shopping centre. Opposite the shopping centre entrance on the other side of the road, is a very helpful pharmacy. The hotel main pool has loud music blaring out all day, but they do stop during lunchtime. Luckily there are quiet beach areas where you can get away from the very loud 18-30 club music. Do not be caught out with the beach towel workings. When picking up a towel at the beach you hand over a towel card which was issued at the time of checking into the hotel. The towel must be handed back in at the end of the day and a towel card taken back. If when checking out, you do not hand back the issued towel cards, you are charged US $20 for each card not returned. The assistant Food and Beverage Manager, H
