Romance on the Red Sea Shores at Four Seasons Resort Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt

Few destinations tick all the boxes like Four Seasons Resort Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt. Whether it’s a honeymoon, a significant milestone, or simply a celebration of love, the Resort’s flower and palm filled gardens, secluded sandy coves, spectacular Red Sea views and inspiring Arabian architecture provide the ultimate backdrops for a very special couple’s getaway. From year-round sunshine, desert and underwater adventures right on the doorstep and diverse dining concepts to a sanctuary-like Spa and a wide selection of accommodations with private terraces and pools, it’s the perfect place to create everlasting memories.

Luxurious accommodations designed for romance

With the Resort’s recent expansion, couples have even more accommodation choices, from sunlight-filled premier sea-view rooms boasting enchanting views of the Red Sea to a selection of nine different suite types, including the Four Seasons Suite with pool, with a chic terrace ideal for sunny days and romantic sunsets. For the ultimate couple’s escape, The Palace has a full size swimming pool and whirlpool, captivating modern design and its own private beach for couples who want to get away from everything – and everyone.

Capturing romantic moments

The Resort sprawls across a kilometre (3,300 feet) of seafront, where palms sway in the breeze, bougainvillea blooms along the meandering pathways, and warm waters are never more than a few steps away. There are plenty of secluded spots to enjoy it all and share some precious time together, from private poolside cabanas spread around the Resort’s five swimming pools, to relaxing beach pods where the beautiful vistas of the Red Sea provide an inspiring backdrop that cultivates romance.

At The Spa, a sanctuary of calm where ancient Egyptian traditions and beauty secrets meet the latest in wellness rituals, the Couple’s Suite offers a special space for private pampering. The Egyptian Masterpiece, the ultimate Spa experience, channels Cleopatra vibes with a milk, honey and rose bath, a Pharaonic massage using techniques once reserved for royalty, and a deeply hydrating hair treatment, just the thing after a day soaking up the sun and the salty sea air. Or enjoy outdoor treatments, in a private beachfront Spa cabana where the gentle sounds of birdsong and the waves form the soundtrack to soothing moments.

Adventures for active couples

Sharm El Sheikh’s location between the desert and the reef is a dreamy spot for romantics who like to get active and head out on new adventures together. Four Seasons knowledgeable concierge team can unveil the beauty of the destination and open doors to unforgettable experiences on land or at sea. The desert provides the perfect playground for adrenalin-pumping activities such as self-drive dune buggies and quad bikes, or for sunset safaris on camel-back.

The Red Sea waters are known to be some of the clearest in the world, and are one of the main reasons that a couple in love comes back year after year, whether to snorkel the house reef, just off the Resort’s seafront, to come face-to-face with the rich variety of marine life that calls these waters home, or to head out on a diving excursion to one of the nearby 76 recognised dive sites with the expert team from the Resort’s Dive Centre aboard the fastest boats in the area. Experienced divers can explore shipwrecks and search for sharks, while beginners can embark on their first foray into the magical underwater world.  

Come evening, there’s nothing better than heading out on a yacht to watch the sunset, accompanied by cocktails and perhaps the chance to spot a pod of dolphins, setting the scene for those inspired to pop the question.

Date-night dining

With twelve diverse dining options spread throughout the Resort, date-night dining under the starry skies is a treat for the appetite and the senses. At signature restaurant Yatai, a decorative pool with floating candles and flowers recreates the feeling of an Asian garden, a suitably romantic touch with relaxed outdoor lagoon-side seating that frames the sunset every evening. For picture-perfect scenery from a dramatic cliff top setting, Sails Lounge offers delightful light snacks and the best views of the Red Sea. Refreshing drinks, front row sea views and toes in the golden sands is the recipe for romance at Breeze beach bar, seamlessly joining sea views and a seaside mood. Each restaurant has diverse and exciting food selections on the menu with a side of romantic settings.

The Resort’s creative culinary team is also on hand to arrange private passionately-crafted dining experiences in breath-taking venues, from a Bedouin breakfast on the beach to a candlelit dinner beneath the palms, a sunset cocktail on board a private yacht, or a romantic set-up over the water on the private jetty.
