The Steigenberger Al Dau Beach Hotel is a luxury hotel that makes use of its beachfront setting with leisure activities that focus on families. With a full-service spa, two outdoor pools, dive center, private beach, and international conference center, this property provides it all. The nine restaurants, bars, and a nightclub provide diverse cuisines and entertainment, though most are smoking-friendly which may be a drawback. The 388 stately rooms all have balconies, flat-screen TVs, and minibars (which are free in suites). The biggest downside is that Wi-Fi isn’t free in rooms, unless booked with all-inclusive rates which also include meals. As an alternative, the Oberoi, Sahl Hasheesh offers free Wi-Fi and hosts more couples than kids.
