We absolutely loved our stay at Azal Lagoons Resort!
The staff were the friendliest we have met in Egypt, always smiling and doing their best to help. Also, instead of going as far as demanding tips like at some other places, they did not want to accept it at first - even though it was absolutely deserved and here I would encourage this practice.
While food can often be disappointing in Egypt, it wasn't the case here: good quality, tasty and very satisfying portions.
The resort has an amazing location, right on the banks of Lake Nasser. There is a beautiful garden on the property ground, packed with flowers and an astonishing number and variety of birds (bring your binoculars or camera if you like wildlife). As an unexpected extra, there was subtle music playing from speakers, adding to the overall tranquility.
A couple of extra notes:
- Don't be discouraged by the lack of reviews, it's a really new place.
- As they are still ramping up, meal options are a bit limited. We personally prefer this approach as there isn't a lot of food waste created due to offering a massive variety. In addition, they went above and beyond to prepare the somewhat customized meals we have asked for (they also paid attention to our preferences and needed no reminders).
