02Overview

A first look

Here on Marsa Mares Bay the Red Sea runs up against the dry desert of Egypt’s southern shore. A stay at JAZ Elite Riviera is about settling by the water and enjoying the slower rhythm of Marsa Alam, not moving from sight to sight.

The resort stands at KM 79 on the coast road, a handy marker when you plan journeys along the shore. We can build the stay into your Egyptian plans and check the room, board basis, transport and facilities for your dates before you book.

Background

The facts

JAZ Elite Riviera is a five-star resort on Marsa Mares Bay, in Egypt’s Marsa Alam area. Egypt Discovery can arrange a stay as part of a wider Egyptian trip; it is accommodation and not a guided sightseeing itinerary.

The address is KM 79 on the road between El Quseir and Marsa Alam, along Egypt’s Red Sea shore. Marsa Alam is a seaside area of the Red Sea Governorate, to the south of El Quseir. We hold no distances or journey times to nearby landmarks.

The Red Sea setting brings together coast and desert scenery. The address tells us where the resort is, but it points to no historical sites, UNESCO listing or cultural attractions at the property.

Room types, board basis, check-in and check-out times, facilities and transport can differ by date and booking. Confirm them with us before you book, as the hotel sets its own access and operating arrangements.

        Dining

        Where you'll eat

        A restaurant and a bar are listed, along with room service. We have no names, cuisines, opening hours or details of board bases, so we cannot describe the dining with confidence. Ask whether breakfast is a buffet and whether your rate is bed and breakfast, half board or all-inclusive. We can find out which venues are open during your stay, what the rate covers and whether tables need booking, so your expectations match what you have paid for.

        Tailor it

        Make it yours

        We can fit the stay into wider Egyptian plans and confirm rooms, board basis and transport for your dates. Ask about adding other destinations or a longer trip; the hotel stay itself includes no guided sightseeing.

        Your own specialist deals with each request before you book.

        Where it fits

        JAZ Elite Riviera works as a Red Sea stay before or after Cairo or a Nile Valley trip. We can link the hotel with the rest of your plans.

        Accessibility

        Who can join this

        JAZ Elite Riviera is on Marsa Mares Bay, at KM 79 of the coast road. If you use a wheelchair or have limited mobility, ask the hotel to confirm room layouts, step-free routes, lifts and bathroom fittings before you book. Strong sun and heat can make moving between indoor and outdoor areas harder on this coast. Find out how far your room is from reception, the restaurants and any facilities you plan to use. We can ask for accessibility details on your dates, but we cannot confirm specific features until the hotel replies.

        Before you go

        What to pack & wear

        Children & families

        Before you book, ask us to confirm the minimum age, child room rates and any age-based meal terms for your dates. Charges for children can depend on how many share a room and the rate plan. How practical a pushchair is depends on the route and where your room is, so confirm step-free access and storage with the hotel if you are bringing one. Ask the hotel directly about high chairs before you travel.

        These fares are a guide, as prices and rooms move through the year. Do ask us and we will confirm the fare for the days you have in mind.

        Location

        The setting

        The resort lies on Marsa Mares Bay, at KM 79 of the coast road between El Quseir and Marsa Alam. The address puts it beside that road, but we hold no named landmarks or local facilities to measure from. The bay is the setting for the stay, and beach access and local transport are worth confirming before you book. Ask us for transport options and journey times on your dates.

        How we travel here

        The resort is on the coast road in the Marsa Alam area. We can build a stay here into a wider Egyptian trip, but transport is arranged separately and not assumed to come with the room. We hold no verified information on the hotel’s energy or water use, waste handling, vehicles or community projects, so we make no environmental claims. Ask us which local transport providers could serve your itinerary and whether a transfer can be linked to your arrival. Using locally arranged services may keep some spending in the region, though we cannot put a figure on it.
