With stone turrets above the Red Sea, a private marina and sea lagoons beside the shore, Pickalbatros Citadel Resort gives your Egyptian beach holiday a distinctive setting from the moment you arrive. Located in Sahl Hasheesh, 20 km from Hurghada International Airport, this five-star resort pairs architecture inspired by medieval citadels with a 1.6 km private beachfront. Spend your days exploring a shoreline of sandy and rocky stretches, with a house coral reef, two manmade sea lagoons and the Royal Sandy Lagoon opening onto the sea. Water shoes are required for the beach. Three adult swimming pools, heated in winter, offer more places to unwind, while the Infinity Pool looks out towards the Red Sea. The resort’s accommodation includes Standard and Deluxe Sea View Rooms, Swim-Up Rooms, Family Rooms, Junior Suites and Royal Suites. Balconies or terraces provide outdoor space, while air conditioning, blackout curtains, a 50-inch LED television with satellite channels, a minibar, a safe and tea- and coffee-making facilities bring practical comforts to your stay. Dining offers plenty of reasons to try somewhere different. Culina, the main restaurant, serves international cuisine, while The Citadel Restaurant brings together Egyptian, Turkish, Moroccan and Syrian flavours. Enjoy Italian dishes at Alfredo Restaurant, dine beside the marina at East & West, or choose à la carte dining at Rocks Lounge. Pizza Station and Pasta House add further variety, and seafood lovers can visit Starfish Restaurant. Between meals, pause at Columbus Café & Terrace, Marina Café, Palm Pool Bar or Infinity Pool Bar. Younger guests have their own holiday experiences to look forward to, with a children’s pool, playground facilities and Alba Kids Club. For active days, choose from two hard tennis courts, beach volleyball, table tennis, billiards, boccia and the gym. A spa and beauty salon, plus a Water Sports & Diving Centre, offer further experiences.
