Christmas Diving Holiday. Sharm el Sheikh.

Hi Guys.
But I am having terrible trouble deciding on a hotel for our Christmas
Diving Holiday.
As you may have read before.
We a family of 4 are doing a PADI course here in the UK and want to do the
Open Water in Sharm el Sheikh.
We would like a beach hotel with minimal travelling from hotel to jetties.

Any recommendations??

Regards
Baz

To be close to jetty down by the old town, you need a hotel in El Maya,
there is a nice one next to the Seti.....used to be called the
Riu Palace....then the Iberotel.......stayed there a few times.....really
nice food etc.....

But if your in Nama bay......you really need the Sonesta Beach, remember
"Beach" because there is a Sonesta Club which is not by the beach, that
also is a nice hotel at which i have stayed, again, good food.

If youneed a dive operation you could do a lot worse than going with...

Thanks Dave.
Just the info I was looking for.
The Sonesta Beach looks a good bet.
