4* Ali Baba Palace

4* Ali Baba Palace

Hurghada, Egypt

Star Rating: ****

For a getaway that goes big on the family fun, look no further than Ali Baba Palace. The aqua park here is real winner for water babies, with a slew of helter-skelter slides that’ll ensure hours of excitement. And the pool is truly enormous – a long curvy number that stretches towards the shore from the main terrace. Plonked in the middle of it on a little island is a poolside bar, so that’s the drinks and snacks sorted.

Stroll beyond the pool, meanwhile, and the gardens give way to a sandy stretch of shoreline peppered with sun loungers and parasols – the perfect spot for a day spent soaking up the Red Sea sunshine.

No need to worry if you’re not much of a water baby, there’s plenty to get stuck into on dry land, too. Beach volleyball, mini golf, and tennis are just a few of the activities on offer. And with a dedicated kids’ pool and playground, plus a bowling alley where the whole family can try their hand at a strike, this place really is a great pick for a holiday with the little ones.

At mealtimes, you can choose between the main buffet restaurant serving a generous spread of international options, the Oriental buffet, or the Italian buffet. There's an Asian à la carte spot, too, and a restaurant down at the beach that serves casual lunches and seafood dinners. On the drinks front, meanwhile, there're a handful of watering holes, including one by the pool and one in the aqua park. There's even a disco bar if you fancy letting your hair down.
