Kempinski Hotel Soma Bay sits on a private peninsula between Hurghada and Safaga, around 45 minutes by car from Hurghada airport. Soma Bay is a self-contained resort area known for clear water, steady winds and an 18-hole championship golf course, and the Kempinski is one of its most elegant hotels.
The architecture blends Arabian and Moorish styles, with arches, courtyards and lanterns set around a series of pools that lead down to the sea. Rooms are spacious and calm, most with balconies or terraces and many with sea views.
There are three pools, a long private beach and jetty for swimming and snorkelling, a spa and a gym. Dining includes an international restaurant, a seafood spot by the water and an Italian or Mediterranean option, along with bars. Some room types are sold only to Egyptian residents, so check carefully when booking.
Soma Bay is one of the best spots on the Red Sea for kitesurfing, and diving trips go out to nearby reefs and wrecks. Golf is a short drive away. The setting is quiet, with little nightlife outside the resort. It suits couples, families and active travellers who want a stylish, relaxed beach stay with watersports on the doorstep.
