Picolo recommends · Hotel in Hurghada, Egypt

Jaz Aquamarine

  • Water park
  • All-inclusive
  • Family resort
  • Beach
  • Many pools

Children queue for the next slide while the adults stay put on a sunbed, with the drinks, meals and beach all within a few steps.

The day here is measured in slides. The water park keeps children busy from breakfast to dinner, and there are enough pools spread around the grounds that you can usually find one with a little more space.

Jaz Aquamarine lies on the beach south of town and runs on an all-inclusive basis, so there are no bills to think about. The rooms are plain but roomy, which matters when a family shares one for a week.

Picolo’s verdict

Why we chose Jaz Aquamarine

This is our family choice in Hurghada. Children get a full water park, parents get a week without planning, and the airport is close enough that a late flight home does not ruin the last day.

It is big, loud and busy, and the buffet is solid rather than memorable. Couples looking for quiet evenings or good food should look at Sahl Hasheesh or El Gouna instead.

What you get

  • Water park with slides
  • Many pools across the grounds
  • All-inclusive buffet
  • Beach on the Red Sea
  • Built around families

Questions about Jaz Aquamarine

Is Jaz Aquamarine all-inclusive?

Yes, meals and drinks are included. That makes the budget predictable, but the buffet is the main dining option, so do not expect a gourmet week.

Is Jaz Aquamarine good for teenagers?

Older children tend to like the water park and the sheer amount to do. The resort also suits big groups travelling together.

Is Jaz Aquamarine a quiet hotel?

No. It is large and lively, especially around the slides and pools. If you want calm, a smaller hotel is a better fit.
