4-star beachfront resort on Soma Bay with a genuinely sandy, family-safe beach and a German-managed diving centre

Rooms & Accommodation

Imperial Shams Abu Soma Hotel Hurghada offers ground-floor rooms located approximately 20 metres from the beach, allowing guests to wake up and walk directly to the sea. Multiple reviews confirm that the hotel provides free room upgrades for honeymoon guests, along with a complimentary cake. Some suites include a private jacuzzi on the terrace, while all rooms feature sea views and daily bottled water.

Dining & All-Inclusive

The hotel's all-inclusive plan includes a main buffet with daily theme nights, plus two à la carte restaurants serving Italian and Oriental cuisine. Chef Ahmed Ebeid personally assists guests with food allergies, ensuring safe meals. Guests can also pre-book a pizza dinner or a Chinese meal at the beach bar, which serves fresh grilled meats and snacks throughout the day.

Beach & Water Sports

Imperial Shams Abu Soma has a private sandy beach where the seabed is free of hidden coral cavities and black sea urchins, making it safe for children and adults to walk and swim. The hotel's Shams Diving Center is managed by German divers and offers well-maintained rental equipment, with boat trips arranged to isolated reefs. Windsurfing and kite surfing are available directly on the beach due to consistent wind conditions.

Family & Children

The hotel operates a dedicated kids' club with supervised activities, while the animation team runs daily programs such as darts, Zumba, and evening shows. A separate children's pool and a water slide are available, ensuring younger guests have their own safe play areas. The gently sloping beach allows parents to relax while children swim without sudden depth changes.

Wellness & Relaxation

The hotel's spa centre includes a hammam, sauna, steam room, and massage chairs, with several treatment packages available.
