Oberoi Sahl Hasheesh has it all
What a terrific time we had spending again a week at the gorgeous Oberoi Sahl Hasheesh, Egypt. If you love excellent service, beautiful views, fantastic suites, very friendly staff, wonderful food, pool time, beach time or snorkelling / diving in the Red Sea… this is your best choice.
The Oberoi Sahl Hasheesh
A little over 1 year ago, I read about a fantastic place in Egypt. The Oberoi Sahl Hasheesh.
“Located directly upon the shore of the Red Sea, a comfortable thirty minutes from the centre of Hurghada, The Oberoi, Sahl Hasheesh is a spectacular, forty eight acre, all suite hotel, with a certified PADI dive centre and a large private beach.
Inspired by traditional Arabic designs, our luxury hotel in Sahl Hasheesh has luxurious accommodations and restaurants which feature classical, domed ceilings and long corridors. They are illuminated by Arabic style lamps and framed by elegant columns decorated with the traditional Islamic eight point star.
We offer all guests complimentary access to high speed Internet for up to four devices.”
Our dream was to visit this fantastic hotel and dive into the Red Sea with our cameras.
Our dream came true in March 2018. And again in March 2019!
The Oberoi is such a magnificent place, I can warmly recommend a short or a long vacation at this beautiful Five Star All Suite Hotel!
If you like a peaceful and beautiful pool area and beach, rather than a very crowded one, you will love Oberoi Sahl Hasheesh. The seaview is amazing. The waves touch gently the wonderful sandy beach. And there is plenty of space for all visitors to sunbathe on the beach. They have also great service also at the beach. Towels, sunchairs, water and even sunscreen. And the suites, the service and the food… they are magnificent and wonderful!
If you like to swim in the sea, snorkel and watch the wonderful Red Sea underwater world, you can do so very easily from the pier. There is also the possibility to scubadive. We like freediving and photographing underwater.
Have a wonderful day!

Awarded underwater photography
We love to photograph in the Red Sea. Which my travel blog followers know well by know. 🙂
It is such a joy to dive into the Red Sea and explore the sealife, the underwater world, which is so beautiful, silent and fantastic. Totally amazing.
What a joy it is for a photographer, to receive an award and a recognition, and this from National Geographic.
My underwater macrophotograph received first an editor’s note and was soon chosen by National Geographic editors as 1 of the Daily Dozen (best photos) January 30, 2019.
This underwater view looks like a painting! The colors blend together like an impressionist’s brush strokes. Great work getting sharpness in the fish’s eyes.

Here is the photo:
Whiteband Damsel, Plectroglyphidodon leucozonus in the Red Sea. In a small cave, there was this wonderful 10 cm damselfish, among the fantastic corals and seagrass.It is a little bit of an aggressive fish, protecting its territory. This you can see in this photo, where the fish comes right at me. Look closely and you can see the teeth. It did bite me. If you thought macro photography is tough on land… try it underwater!
We hope to visit the Red Sea soon and who knows what we might capture this time with the cameras.
Here are a few wonderful sealife photographs:
