The Creative Grand Sharm was a pretty looking resort and very well kept around the grounds, the room we was in was a 3/4 1 bedroom and we had everything we needed. It was not 5 star but it was nice and cosy, the cleaner came every day and was excellent, the general rule is usually you would give the cleaners a small tip each day, about a pound or 10 Egyptian pounds is fine.
We found the staff to be very friendly although most do not speak good English, the food was fine, again not 5 star but still very nice just the same, although if you are a person that prefers simple food, chips etc then maybe all inclusive is not for you, plenty of rice and pasta dishes and chicken and meats, done in their own way on the buffet, myself and my wife found it lovely, all a matter of taste really.
Unique Quality: The resort has its own private beach although this is a little walk about 10 mins through the resort and the neighbouring Ibrotel Grand Sharm, there is a shuttle bus that goes about once an hour to the beach and a return, the shuttle bus also runs into namma bay ( the main town ) several times at night with returns up until midnight and also once during the day with a return to another larger beach ( we never went there ).
The beach has a floating walkway that takes you over the reef, supposedly one of the best reef areas in Sharm, and I can vouch for that as I did a fair bit of snorkelling there and it was truely amazing.
The resort has a large pool and both the pool and the surrounding areas were imaculate, the water in the pool was always crystal clear.
The restaurant is a buffet style, spacious and pleasant, and the upstairs disco bar is ok but very quiet when we was there and no real entertainment other than one friday evening they had an Egyptian night with Egyptian folk dancer and belly dancer, still very few people though.

This is our room in the hotel, on arrival at the hotel we asked for a room on the second floor so we would have a good view. We were shown 3 rooms and choose this one which was a suite much bigger than the other rooms and only had to pay £35.00 for 14 nights.
The Cobra on the bed was made using the towels by our cleaner. He was nice enough to show me how to make a number of things using the towels, although i must point out that the room wasn't cleaned daily and we even had to ask for toilet paper on one occasion and clean towels.

This hotel is a 3star hotel with 5 star people running it! It has an excellent pool with a very good pool bar with great cheap meals. It has a disco/bar entertainment room for the evenings, massage, diving, shisha tent, bank, shops, buffet restaurant. Its just excellent and I would recommend it to anyone! The House reef here in my opinion was better than Ras mohammed, its just the best!
Unique Quality: The staff here are the oustanding feature of this hotel, we got to know them all by name and them us. They were excellent and could not do enough for us. The food was fab, and the shop was reasonably priced too. The views were great , we had pool and sea views. If you go onto the roof, (hotel only has 2 floors) the view is wonderful.

we only stayed b&b for 2 weeks wish we had stayed longer the staff where polite and happy ready to help at all times the cleaners (mohamed dawood) first class the pool attendants great A1 and all staff just simply thank you creative grand sharm
like all other comments we too we looking forward to our stay her with a little apprehension as we had been told about ibrotel grand sharm and creative grand sharm both differnt hotels
on our arrival my dad requested ground floor o(because of a bad heart} only to be give one up a flight of stairs then he was swapped on the other side of the complex next to the building site next door,we room we were put in was suppose to be a family room only to be given two rooms with a joining doors not ideal with young children,they were renervating the landscape when we were there that started at 6.30 in the morning until aroung 6.00 at night. the cleaners were not up to much either made more towel sculpures than cleaning.food not up to much if you like omelletes these were the safest to eat as these were cooked while you wait glad we went b and b a lot of people we spoke too went a/i not happy at all
we ent away with thomas cook still awaitng for compensation now in december as they still think it rates a four star
me and my friend arrived at creative grand sharm on 12th july and was a little worried being two young 18 year old girls alone in egypt.
we was taken to our rooms and was not disapointed. We had running hot water. room was cold from air conditioning and decorated nicely. We had no problems with our room. Sheets were clean, towels were changed every day and cleaner put fresh flowers in our room and made animals out of the towels which was cute.
Pool was ok. Nothing special all you really wanted a cool pool to jump into wen you got too hot. Towels were clean although sometimes we had to wait around half hour for new clean towels if they had run out. Around 4:30pm all the locals would come around the pool and this then got a little packed and watch ya towels some peoples went walkies.
Beach was a 10-15min walk through the hotel opposite or the free bus come every 30mins which took you there. Also the bus took you to Namba Bay beach which left at 10am and picked you up at 3pm.
Me and my friend went all inclusive which i dont recomend as food was not brilliant. If you are a fussy eater than definatly do not go all inclusive. There is very little choice. as it is a muslim country they cant eat pork so only meat options was beef and chicken every lunch and night. and a choice of 2 veg. At breakfast again not much choice but i not a breakfast person so this did not bother me. It is so cheap to eat out in egypt i would recomend bed breakfast or self catering. good resterante across road was columbus. 1 starter, 2 main meals, 4 drinks £5each. how can you complain?
Pool bar did not do all inclusive food ( burger and chips £5) Drinks were given in plastic cups BUT WAT IS EVERYONE MOANING ABOUT? YOU SOON BE MOANING IS THERE WAS ALL BROKEN GLASS ON THE FLOOR!!!!!! i did not see the problem with this.
Across road was Fantasia which was shops, bars and a egyptian show and resterante. Namba Bay was a 15 min drive which you could get the free bus or taxi cost around 30egyptian pounds = £3 english. Namba bay had lots of bars and resterants of many tastes chinese, fish, italian, american, egyptian and good old pizza hut, mcdonalds and KFC hahaha. If ya like to shop this is great. Come home with many copies of designer bags at bargin prices. Girl heven.
I felt safe in egypt little hassel but nothing i couldnt handle. I would go back to egypt and even creative grand sharm. Clean and friendly just a let down on food but self catering is the solution.
Stayed at Grand Sharm as a family a week ago(me, my husband and our 9 month old baby). Everything very nice, had a nice large one bedroom apartment with kitchenette (although we only paid for a double room with cot). Were a bit disappointed that we didnt get cot until night three as there were many families staying at the hotel and all cots were in use. Management and Thomas Cook did all they could though and we were compensated. Quite clean, new sheets and towels everyday. Only had B+B as I heard that AI or halfboard not really worth it. Breakfast buffet very nice though, both continental and egyptian/arabic food. Glasses not very clean so tried to avoid them. Managed to stay well all trip. The staff is very nice and they all love children. The language can be a bit of a barrier though. Pool nice and clean but very cold! Massagetherapeut very nice (only working woman we saw all trip) but a bit expensive. Recommend the poolbar for a light lunch but be prepared to wait for the food if there is a lot of people. Had to wait one hour once! The beach that belongs to the hotel not very childfriendly as you have to go out on a jetty to get into water. Can take the bus at 10 am from resort to Creative mexicana beach which is better butr would recommend the public beach in naama bay as that was the nicest one, really sandy and could walk in and also good snorkeling. Avoid public taxis and use the hotel "limo" service, both Kemal and Sabbi are reliable guys and we were quite happy to pay an extra pound for safety. Had a really nice relaxing holiday and were happy that we stayed at grand sharm. Have a nice trip and dont forget to barter!
what can i say apart from we loved it.ok its not deserving of four star but definately top three star.we only went b&b but the choice was varied and plentiful.wouldnt stay all inclusive as food probably would get very boring.the rooms were of excellent quality.anyone that has stayed on the med knows that air conditioning,fridge and safe are normally payable items.these are free which do amount to an excellent saving.rooms were cleaned suberbly.it would of been nice for tea and coffee making facilities for b&b guests.
staff were friendly and helpful. the gardens were well tended. the pool did have to be cleaned twice and was in need of maintenance but was safe and sunbeds were always available with free towels every day.(but to be honest if you really worry about the pool when you are in egypt,then you must be sad.with so many exciting and varied things to do relaxing by the pool for 7/14 days and moaning about it then youve come to the wrong place.get out and enjoy this wonderful country).
The nights were low key but short taxi ride or free bus to nama bay will soon be having you happy again.it was nice to leave the bussle of nama bay at night and return for a quiet nights sleep ready for the next day.
if you go wth thomas cook the the rep ellie is fantastic.helpful and informative.The nearby resturants and shops were nice and good quality.
if you are unhappy the let someone know.the staff will go out of their way to help you and are happy to assist.
the diving was amazing and we found a white gold wedding ring(mens) with a date inscribed.if you know anyone that lost it just mail me as it would be great to return it.
