Baron Resort Sharm El Sheikh

Baron Resort Sharm El Sheikh is a mid-range resort at Sharks Bay (Umm Sid area), north of Naama Bay in Egypt's South Sinai Governorate, listed as a five-star property and described as having a landmark domed building and a beach. Sharks Bay is a short taxi ride from the Naama Bay promenade and relatively close to Sharm El Sheikh International Airport, so transfers are short. The resort is best known for its large domed central building, which gives it an unusual and recognisable profile among the Red Sea resorts, and the grounds combine gardens, pools and a sandy beach on the bay. The atmosphere is that of a lively holiday resort aimed mainly at leisure travellers. Room types include standard rooms, double rooms and family rooms with air conditioning and Wi-Fi. Dining is based on restaurants and bars within the resort, with meal plans usually half-board or all-inclusive. Listed amenities are a swimming pool, a restaurant, Wi-Fi, beach access and air conditioning; a spa and kids club are not listed, so guests who want those should check with the resort. The beach gives access to the Red Sea reef for snorkelling, and diving, boat trips, Ras Mohammed National Park visits and desert safaris are generally arranged through the tour desk or local agents. The service character is leisure-oriented and value-focused. Indicative rates are about EGP 3,500 to 7,500 (roughly $70 to $150) per night, depending on season and booking channel. Guests should confirm the property and entrance on the booking page, as several resorts line the Sharks Bay coast.
