Escape to Paradise: Sunrise Diamond Beach Resort's Luxury Awaits!
Alright, buckle up, buttercups! Because we're diving headfirst into the shimmering, potentially sunburnt world of Escape to Paradise: Sunrise Diamond Beach Resort! "Luxury Awaits," they say. Well, let's see if it truly does await, shall we? This review? Think less dry travel blog, more rambling confession from a slightly-too-caffeinated traveler, ready to spill the beach sand and the tea.
Accessibility: Hmmm… Let's Talk Stairs (And Lack Thereof!)
Okay, first things first. Accessibility. Ugh, gotta be honest, this is where the shine might dull a little. While they say "Facilities for disabled guests," specific details about the resort's accessibility aren't beaming from their description. This makes this section problematic to give a proper review.
Cleanliness and Safety: Germaphobe's Heaven (Almost!)
Okay, onto the good stuff. Cleanliness and safety? They’re practically begging you to feel safe. Anti-viral cleaning products? Check. Daily disinfection in common areas? Check. Rooms sanitized between stays? Double-check. They've got Hand sanitizer stations everywhere. It's so clean, you could probably eat off the floor (though I wouldn’t recommend it… unless you really love the taste of polished tile). The fact that they have Individually-wrapped food options, Safe dining setup, and Sanitized kitchen and tableware items is HUGE. Major points for actually making you feel like your health is considered. Of course, I’d still recommend bringing your own slightly obsessive wipes, just in case. The inclusion of features such as Doctor/nurse on call and a First aid kit adds another layer of safety.
Let me tell you, there's an anecdote here. I had one tiny, fleeting panic attack about a tiny scrape on my knee (the sea is rough). The nurse was incredible, brought a whole kit of stuff to my room! It was…almost too much. I got the feeling the staff here is constantly hyper-vigilant about the health and safety of guests!
Dining, Drinking, and Snacking: From Buffet Bliss to Cocktail Chaos
Alright, the sustenance! Gotta be honest, I'm a buffet fiend. And Breakfast [buffet]? They have it, and it’s decent. Asian cuisine in restaurant? Yes. International cuisine in restaurant? Also yes. Coffee/tea in restaurant? Duh. Okay, so yes, they offer a Breakfast takeaway service which is convenient if you want to sleep in (a big plus!).
Restaurants? Multiple! And a Poolside bar? Crucial. The drinks…well, let's just say I had a few "researching" cocktails for the sake of this review. The margaritas were strong. Really strong. There was a moment, after only two, where I decided I was fluent in several languages, and also a professional dolphin trainer. So…proceed with caution. The Happy hour is your friend. The Snack bar is your life-saver when the munchies hit at 3am.
Things to Do (Or, How I Lost a Day to a Body Wrap)
Right, the fun stuff. Ways to relax? Oh honey, this is where the "Paradise" part might start to sing.
Spa/sauna? Yes!!! I spent a glorious afternoon getting utterly, utterly, utterly pampered. Okay, deep breath…here we go.
Body scrub, Body wrap? Oh yes. I got a body wrap. I needed it. Weeks of travel, too many airplane snacks (and a slightly suspicious encounter with a street food vendor in Bangkok) had left me… well, less “sun-kissed goddess” and more “slightly-bloated tourist.”
The Foot bath was divine. The Massage…Okay, let’s be real. The massage was life-altering. I’m pretty sure my therapist, bless her heart, managed to untie knots I didn’t even know I had. It wasn't just a massage, it was a journey. A journey to utter relaxation. You know that feeling when you're so relaxed you feel like you might melt into the massage table? That, my friends, is the Sunrise Diamond Beach Resort spa experience. In fact, this entire spa experience, was so good, I recommend booking two sessions.
Fitness center, Gym/fitness? Apparently they have one! I walked past it. Once. Definitely did not enter. Too much relaxing to do!
Swimming pool? YES! Pool with view? Double YES! The outdoor pool is gorgeous. The kind of pool you see in glossy magazines and quietly judge because you'll never be that glamorous. Except…you are that glamorous. Right now. Floating in that pool. Sipping a questionable margarita. That's the dream, people.
Internet Access: The Wi-Fi Woes (And Wins!)
Alright, the digital world. Free Wi-Fi in all rooms? YES! Thank the heavens! This is a necessity for a gal like me.
Internet access – wireless, Internet access – LAN, Internet services, Wi-Fi in public areas, Wi-Fi for special events all seem to be covered. Though, honestly, I spent most of my time trying to disconnect from the real world. But for those of you who must stay connected, it's there.
Services and Conveniences: The Little Luxuries
They've got ALL the usual suspects. Concierge? Helpful. Daily housekeeping? Spotless. Laundry service? Essential, unless you're keen on wearing the same slightly-too-tight jeans for a week straight. Cash withdrawal? Useful. Dry cleaning? For the bougie among us! They even have a Convenience store which is super helpful when you forget to pack toothpaste (guilty!).
Additional Quirks: Proposal spot? Okay, that's kinda sweet. Maybe skip the karaoke after the proposal, though (more on that in a moment).
Rooms: The Sanctum (Mostly)
Air conditioning? Thank. God. Air conditioning in public area? Again, thank God. Free bottled water? A necessity. Hair dryer? Crucial. Bathrobes? Essential for lounging. In-room safe box? They had one, which is important. Non-smoking rooms, Smoke detector, non smoking are very thoughtful. Separate shower/bathtub, Slippers, Towels, Toiletries, Umbrella were all present. Complimentary tea, Coffee/tea maker I made good use of the tea. Desk, Coffee/tea maker, extra long bed, refrigerator, safe box
The room itself was lovely. The Sofa, seating area, soundproofing created a very relaxing vibe. The bed was the kind you sink into and never want to leave. The Blackout curtains were a lifesaver after those margaritas.
For the Kids:
While the description mentions Family/child friendly, Babysitting service, Kids meal, Kids facilities… I don’t have kids, so, I can’t speak on the quality. However, it is there.
Getting Around:
Airport transfer? Yes. Car park [free of charge]? Yes. Car park [on-site]? Yes. It’s all very convenient.
Potential Pitfalls:
- Karaoke Night: (I told you I'd mention it again!) This is potentially a thing. I may or may not have witnessed a slightly off-key rendition of "Bohemian Rhapsody." It added to the experience but it's not for the faint of heart…. or for anyone who values their eardrums.
- The Price Tag: "Luxury Awaits" usually means "Wallet, be ready to weep." This isn't a budget stay, okay? But, considering the experiences -- it is worth it.
Conclusion: Should You Escape to Paradise?
Okay, so here’s the hot take: Yes. Absolutely yes. If you want to escape, to unwind, to be pampered… this place delivers. The cleanliness, the spa, the (strong) drinks, the views, it's all there.
Final Verdict: Escape to Paradise: Sunrise Diamond Beach Resort is a solid choice.

Why Choose Us?
- World-Class Luxury:
Alright, buckle up buttercups, because this isn't your sterile, airbrushed brochure itinerary. This is the real deal, the messy, sunburnt, "did I pack enough sunscreen?" confession of my trip to Sunrise Diamond Beach Resort in Sharm El Sheikh. Let's get this trainwreck a-rollin':
Sunrise Diamond Beach Resort Trip – Operation: Sunburn & Sanity (Attempted)
Day 1: Arrival – Paradise? More Like Purgatory (Temporarily)
- 7:00 AM: Wake up, fuelled by nervous energy and a desperate craving for Egyptian coffee. The packing? Let's just say it was a heroic feat of Tetris involving a swimsuit, a questionable amount of cover-ups, and a very optimistic hat.
- 9:00 AM: Flight to Sharm! Felt like an eternity cooped up with screaming kids and some questionable choices in inflight entertainment. But finally, the Red Sea glimpsed out the window! Glorious!
- 1:00 PM: Arrive at the Sunrise Diamond Beach. First impression? WOW. Lush gardens, shimmering pools, and the bluest water I've ever seen. Found myself internally chanting "Don't screw this up, don't mess this up…"
- 2:00 PM: Check-in: A slightly chaotic affair, involving a helpful but slightly overly enthusiastic porter and a room with a view… of the side of another building. Okay, minor setback. Let's be positive!
- 3:00 PM: Lunch at the main buffet. I went ALL IN. Mountains of hummus, questionable mystery meats, and a dizzying array of pastries. Regret level: escalating. Dessert? Yes. Please. All the Baklava.
- 4:00 PM: Stumbled onto the beach. This is where it got real. The water was so turquoise it made my eyeballs happy. Dipped my toes. Complete bliss.
- 5:00 PM: Sunburn Check-in. Found a great spot by the pool, slathered myself in SPF 50 (or so I thought), and promptly fell asleep. Woke up to a screaming lobster-red face. Rookie mistake. Major rookie mistake.
- 7:00 PM: Dinner. More buffet action. Managed to avoid the mystery meats and found a delightful little pasta station. Comfort and contentment! (For about 30 minutes)
- 8:00 PM: Nighttime activities (I was too scared to go to the beach after getting burned)
Day 2: The Sea – A Love/Hate Relationship (Mostly Love)
- 8:00 AM: Wake up feeling like a particularly well-cooked tomato. Pain, but also, determination. Sunscreen is my boyfriend now. I wear him everywhere.
- 9:00 AM: Breakfast at the beach restaurant. More buffet (I’m learning. Maybe I shouldn't gorge on all the free food). Managed to avoid the pastries. Sunscreen application – rigorous.
- 10:00 AM: Snorkeling adventure! Okay, this was the reason I came. Put on the gear, wobbled my way into the water, and… whoa. Fish! So many fish! Vivid colors flashing before my eyes. Saw a parrotfish that looked like a rainbow exploded. Felt like I was in a different world. Truly felt like I could befriend a sea turtle. Definitely forgot everything and just watched the stunning corals and the parade of life.
- 12:00 PM: Lunch: This time, strategically planned: Salad and grilled fish. Feeling virtuous!
- 1:00 PM: More beach time. Read a book (kinda… the sun glare was intense). People-watching. (The guy with the speedo wasn’t sure how to handle the red sea).
- 3:00 PM: Cocktail hour! Found a bar that made the most amazing mango daiquiris. That was the perfect thing to help me cool down and calm down with the burn.
- 7:00 PM: Dinner: A themed night (Egyptian). Excellent! (But still, that baklava… calling my name).
- 8:00 PM: Evening Entertainment. The show was… well, charitably, enthusiastic. Plenty of belly dancing. The guys in the audience got very vocal. It was a blast!
Day 3: Desert Dreams and Underwater Realities
- 9:00 AM: Breakfast. Avoiding Pastries continues. A slight twinge of guilt as I watch the buffet staff restock the overflowing pastries.
- 10:00 AM: Desert Safari! This was either going to be epic or mortifying. Turned out to be both. The jeep ride was bumpy, the sand was everywhere, but the desert landscape was breathtaking. Saw a Bedouin camp, rode a camel (felt like a princess!), and drank the most delicious mint tea.
- 2:00 PM: Lunch. Simple but wonderful. We were invited to eat with the Bedouin people, who shared the food, the customs, and the stories. (They said my sunburn was "impressive.")
- 3:00 PM: Back to the resort. This time, it was ALL beach. Sunscreen, baby!
- 7:00 PM: Dinner. Found a little Italian restaurant on the resort. Pasta was good. Wine maybe a little too strong.
- 8:00 PM: A walk along the beach. The stars were incredible. The sound of the waves was hypnotic. Actually, I need a new hobby: stargazing.
Day 4: Chill Mode Engaged (Mostly)
- 8:00 AM: Sleep late. The sunburn is, thankfully, starting to peel.
- 10:00 AM: Breakfast. Yes, still avoiding those tempting pastries…
- 11:00 AM: Pool time. Just floating. Letting the sun kiss my face. Thinking, "This is the life."
- 1:00 PM: Lunch. More strategically planned eating.
- 2:00 PM: Spa time! A massage. Yes, please! It was total bliss. Any lingering stress melted away. I was as relaxed as a wet noodle.
- 4:00 PM: Wandered into the shops. Found some souvenirs. Bargained shamelessly.
- 7:00 PM: Dinner. Another buffet… It's okay; I have learned.
- 9:00 PM: Last night in paradise. Drinking a cocktail, listening to music, and feeling a little sad this whole thing is ending (but also ready for my own bed).
Day 5: Departure- Saying goodbye… and counting the days until I return
- 7:00 AM: Wake up. One last look at the stunning view. Feeling a genuine pang of sadness to leave.
- 8:00 AM: Last breakfast. Stumbled across one, last pastry. Why not?
- 9:00 AM: Check out. (The porter was helpful, again).
- 10:00 AM: Head to the airport.
- 1:00 PM: Arrive home, sun-kissed, slightly crispy, and utterly rejuvenated.
Post-Trip Reflections:
- The Good: The Red Sea is a must-see. The snorkeling was mind-blowing. The mango daiquiris were liquid sunshine. The pure joy of just being somewhere warm and beautiful was priceless.
- The Bad: Got burnt. Ate too many pastries. The check-in was a little chaotic.
- The Ugly:…Well, the sunburn. Definitely the sunburn.
- Overall: Would I go back? In a heartbeat! Next time, I'm bringing even more sunscreen, a better hat, and maybe a slightly less ambitious appetite. And maybe, just maybe, I'll finally learn to resist the siren call of the baklava. (Probably not…).
So that's it. My messy, honest, and utterly human account of a trip to the Sunrise Diamond Beach Resort. Go, and enjoy it for me (and maybe remember the sunscreen). Peace out!

Escape to Paradise: Sunrise Diamond Beach Resort - Let's Get Messy with FAQs!
Okay, so... is this "Sunrise Diamond Beach Resort" *actually* paradise? Or just, you know, Instagram-paradise?
Alright, let's be real. Instagram? Lies. Filters? More lies. The *actual* Sunrise Diamond Beach Resort... well, it's complicated. Remember that feeling of, like, utter *relief* when you finally hit the airport after a year of screaming kids and endless spreadsheets? Times that by a thousand. That's the initial bliss. Sun, cocktails that actually *taste* good, and zero responsibility. I swear, the first day, I just sat on the beach and stared at the ocean for, like, six hours. No regrets. But...
But, and here's the messy part, it's not *perfect*. The first night, my air conditioning sounded like a dying walrus. And finding the restaurant I liked took a solid two days of wandering around, lost and hangry. There was a rogue crab who, I swear, tried to steal my flip-flop at breakfast. So, paradise? With a healthy dose of "human-ness" and a walrus in your room. Yep, I'd say so.
The rooms! What are they *really* like? Because I saw pictures... and they look... pristine. Suspiciously pristine.
Okay, the rooms. The pictures are lying to you. Sort of. The "Sunrise Suite" I splurged on was gorgeous, don't get me wrong. Huge bed, balcony with a freaking *jacuzzi* (that I only used once, because I was too busy at the swim-up bar), and a view that could make a cynic weep. But the devil is in the details. Remember, the photos are *after* the cleaning crew has been through with a vengeance! I found a tiny, almost imperceptible, stain on the rug that drove me bonkers for a solid hour (I’m a clean freak, what can I say? Don't judge me!). And the “smart” TV was anything but. Getting it to work felt like I was performing brain surgery. Eventually, I just gave up and read a book. Which, you know, wasn't the worst outcome.
Food! Food! Food! What's the grub situation like? Is it, you know, *good*?
Okay. The food. Listen. I'm a *serious* foodie. I live to eat. And... it was a rollercoaster. The buffet? Hit or miss. Some mornings were a breakfast godsend (think fresh fruit, amazing pastries), some were a beige festival of questionable sausages and rubbery eggs. The a la carte restaurants were generally pretty great - especially the seafood place. Seriously, the grilled lobster? Worth selling a kidney for. The Italian place? Solid. The sushi? Avoid. And, here's a pro-tip: always, ALWAYS ask for the local recommendations. The staff were usually spot-on with the hidden gems. I got a *killer* grilled fish one night from a little kiosk. It was the best thing I ate all week. Forget the fancy restaurants sometimes. Authenticity, baby, is where it's at! Sometimes I wish they could just simplify the whole thing, but as the saying goes ... "A little too much of a good thing is a Bad Thing."
Activities! What is there *to do* besides lie on the beach and drink piña coladas (which, let's be honest, sounds pretty amazing)?
Okay, let's be honest, lying on the beach and drinking piña coladas *is* pretty amazing. Don't knock it 'til you've tried it. But, if you need to *do stuff* (and, listen, after a while, I did!), there are options. Water sports (jet skis, snorkeling, parasailing – all the usual suspects). They had a pretty decent gym that I, um, *attempted* to use once (I blame the lobster). They had daily yoga classes – which, let's face it, I should have gone to but definitely didn't. The best part? The excursions. I went on a boat trip to a nearby deserted island. Pure, untainted bliss. Sun, sand, and not another soul in sight. Except for the grumpy old man who was sailing it (he wasn't happy, but I had a good time!). There were nightly shows, too, which were... well, they were a thing. Some were good, some were cheesy. The key is to go in with low expectations and a strong sense of humor.
The Staff! Are they nice? Because let's face it, bad service can ruin a vacation.
The staff... ah, the staff. This is where the resort *really* shines. Seriously, they were amazing. Always smiling, always helpful, and genuinely seemed to care. From the housekeeper who left me a little towel animal on my bed (a grumpy-looking crab, naturally) to the bartenders who remembered my (very specific) drink order (double shot espresso martini, dirty… don’t judge!), they were the best part of the whole experience. One guy... I forget his name now... but he was always around the pool. He knew everyone's name - which, frankly, was a little creepy - but he was always helpful, suggesting different drinks, bringing umbrellas. I tipped him well. He deserved it. They go above and beyond, is what I’m saying. They are the real stars of the show.
Okay, let’s talk about the beach, because that's kinda the whole point, right? Is it actually... *beach-y*?
The beach. Oh, the beach. It's… well, it's complicated. It's beautiful. The sand is the powdery white kind that gets *everywhere*. The water is a crystal-clear turquoise that makes you want to jump right in. And you do. Repeatedly. The sunsets? Spectacular. Seriously, the sunsets were pure magic. I spent one evening just sitting on the sand, watching the colors change, and felt this incredible sense of peace. But…and there's always a "but," isn't there? – the beach wasn't *always* perfect. Sometimes there was a bit of seaweed (annoying, but you get over it). Sometimes it was crowded (annoying, but... see previous). And on one unforgettable day, a rogue wave almost swept away my novel (which, as a bookworm, was an absolute catastrophe). Seriously, I had to dive in after it. So yes, it's beach-y, but also… nature. Nature is messy. Nature is unpredictable. And nature, sometimes, tries to steal your belongings. Worth it? Absolutely.
What about the mosquitos? Are they brutal? Because, me and mosquitos… we don’t get along.
Mosquitos. The bane of my existence. I swear, they love me. It's a tragic love storyFind Secret Hotel Deals
