Sunrise Arabian Beach is the more grown-up, good-food family resort in Sharks Bay, with pretty terraced gardens, a house reef right off the beach and a genuinely strong all-inclusive kitchen. It leans calmer than the big slide parks, which suits families who want quality dining and easy days over non-stop flumes. The reef here is excellent, so it earns its keep with snorkel-loving kids and parents.
Our verdict
The pick for families who care about good food and great snorkelling more than slides. Calm, pretty and well run, with the reef as the star.
The rooms
Arabian-styled rooms and family rooms terraced through gardens down toward the sea, most with a balcony. Family rooms sleep four, and the layout gives a calm, low-key feel.

Fine with a baby if you take a lower-level room, with cots on request, though the terraces mean some slopes with a pram.

Kids club plus the standout reef make this a great age here, even without a slide park.

The excellent snorkelling and diving on the doorstep are a big draw for teens.

Parents also ask
Is the snorkelling really that good?
Yes, the house reef here is a genuine highlight, with colourful coral and plenty of fish right off the beach, so bring reef shoes and masks.
Is it suitable with a pram?
The terraced gardens have steps and slopes, so ask for a lower-level room near the beach and main pool if you have a baby or toddler.
Is there a water park?
No large slide park here, the resort focuses on the reef, pools and good dining. For big slides in Sharm, look at the Nabq Bay water park resorts.
