El Quseir Movenpick In El Quseir

Emerging from the beige desert hills beside the Red Sea and set on the fine sandy bay of El Quadim is the resort whose style and ambience embodies the concept of desert vacationing. The five-star Mövenpick Resort El Quseir is a unique gem capturing the magic of sea, sky and land as nature’s unspoiled gift.

Harmony, relaxation and peace characterise this beautiful resort. The very atmospheric architecture of the clusters of bungalows, the high, round domed ceilings, the multi-coloured natural sandstone walls interplay to induce rest and restoration. The courtyards, which surround beds of cactus, scented tropical shrubs and flowers, are linked by shaded walkways amidst swaying palms.

Mövenpick Resort El Quseir is easily reached from the international airports of Hurghada (140 kms/87 miles) Luxor (220 kms/137 miles) and Marsa Alam (68 kms/43 miles). The historical town of El Quseir, just 7 kms/4 miles away, reflects the coast’s busy past when it was a prominent harbour handling Chinese ceramics, exotic spices and Indian silks. 
 

 
The hotel has a total of 250 guestrooms including three suites. The rooms have either a courtyard or a seaview. Bathrooms have separate stall showers and bedrooms have twin or double beds and terraces. The suites have a separate bedroom with one kingsize bed and a living room. All rooms have multi-channel satellite television, mini-bar, duvets, choice of pillows, hairdryer, air-conditioning and Internet connection.
 

 
A host of recreational activities are arranged daily in and around the resort while the two delightful swimming pools and the beach attract the sun seekers. There is a well equipped fitness room, a Jacuzzi and sauna. Guests may also enjoy relaxing massages and restorative treatments. The library will keep the readers busy for hours. A creative, supervised centre is available for any younger guests. They can spend many fun hours together on tasks designed for their respective age groups.

Guests at the Movenpick may enjoy the varied cuisines of the Middle East, Mediterranean and Continental Europe. The Orangerie offers tempting international breakfasts and copious buffets and there is the famed Mövenpick ice cream right by the pools. In summer guests dine under the stars at the romantic Seagulls á la Carte restaurant or at pool side grills while watching live shows. Fish lovers head for the Fisherman’s shack right on the beach to savour succulent seafood and pasta-lovers chill out at the Al Fresco terrace.
 

The Swiss run Subex Diving Centre takes beginners and advanced divers under the water to discover the stunning Red Sea reefs. A dedicated Recreation Centre organises trips by jeep, camel, mountain bike and quad bikes into the desert mountains behind the resort. Tennis, squash, archery, horse riding, volleyball and a library also form part of the many onsite activity programmes.
