Hi. We went to Sharm for our honeymoon in December and stayed at the conrad hilton all inclusive.

The hotel was lovely, food reasonably good (as AI goes), beach gorgeous and sea really warm.

HOWEVER, Sharm itself is basically a resort of hotels, and very little else. Nearest "town" is Na'ama bay which is quite Blackpool like. If you go there you are hounded every step you take by shop owners, taxi drivers, anyone generally wanting money off you. Taxi's are death traps so make sure you stay in a hotel with a shuttle bus if you are wanting to go shopping. Eating out is ok but there is very little choice really as most of the hotels are AI.

Would I go again? Yes, but a week would be enough and it would be a chilling week around the pool or on the beach. In my opinion there is not enough to do for 2 weeks as there really isn't anywhere to go unless you do the expensive reps tours. And again you are harassed everywhere you go. They do have tourist police which means they can't touch you but they will step in-front of you and can seem quite aggressive. I wouldn't go in a party of women only either.

Hope this helps!
