All inclusive: 7 nights at Arabella Azur Resort, in Hurghada, Egypt

There are two pools – a big lagoon-style one with sea views, plus another smaller one for relaxing. They both come with plenty of loungers and the small pool’s heated in winter. Aside from the pools, you’ve got beaches on your doorstep. There’s a big one with a bar, or the smaller reef beach, where you can snorkel* with reef fish, stingrays and octopuses.

2 outdoor pools
You’ll find a pair of pools here, both surrounded by sunloungers. There’s a poolside restaurant and bar, too.

At the main grill restaurant, you can dine on a terrace that’s within touching distance of the sea. For those special nights, there’s Bordiehns Restaurant – it serves international and Asian cuisine with live dancing and music on the side. Two nights a week, you can also pop into the Al Rauche restaurant, which serves up Lebanese cuisine. And the poolside restaurant’s the place to go if you’re after freshly grilled burgers and snacks.
