The Breakers Diving and Surfing Lodge Soma Bay

I'll come quickly to the points of criticism, there are only two in my view: firstly, the sea view. We booked this hotel specifically because of the view of the sea. Of course, nobody can guarantee that the pictures are exactly like the room itself, but we looked out of our balcony onto a large construction site and the view of the sea was really minimal, as there was also a large hotel wall in between. On site you can then book an upgrade for twelve euros per day per person, which would have been almost €250 for us and was therefore no longer possible. I would have liked this to be visible online... Other hotels often differentiate between a side sea view and a sea view.  The second point was the high prices of drinks and a la carte food. A bottled beer for dinner, which costs €6. Or a meal for lunch for €15-20 is simply too expensive. The prices are in Egypt. Food in particular is very cheap in Egypt and I really don't understand why the price-performance ratio is worse than in the expensive big cities in Germany. Otherwise, as described in many reviews: the food was good, the location is really great right on the reef and the people are fantastic and friendly. We had a great time and if we go to Hurghada again to go diving or kiting, this hotel will be our choice.
