Jaz Fanara Resort

Jaz Fanara Resort is a four-star mid-range hotel near Ras Um Sid in Sharm El Sheikh, South Sinai, Egypt. Ras Um Sid is the headland at the southern end of the resort town, known for its lighthouse, its viewpoint over the Red Sea and a well-known reef that attracts snorkellers and divers. The area is a short taxi ride from the Old Market and Naama Bay, and the airport is also within a reasonable drive. The location suits guests who value access to the headland reef and sunsets over a lively promenade right outside the door. The resort follows a relaxed holiday style, with buildings arranged around pools and gardens leading to the sea. Room types include standard rooms, double rooms and family rooms, so the property can host couples and families, and rooms are described as straightforward and comfortable rather than luxurious. Facilities include swimming pools, sea access and restaurant facilities, with Wi-Fi and air conditioning throughout. Dining is generally built around a buffet for breakfast and dinner, with snack and drink outlets by the pool or beach during the day. The service style is friendly and practical, aimed at holidaymakers who plan to spend time on the reef or in the water. An excursions desk or local operators can arrange snorkelling trips, diving, Ras Mohammed National Park outings and desert safaris. Because the reef near Ras Um Sid can have currents and coral close to the surface, visitors should follow staff guidance, wear water shoes and avoid touching the coral. Indicative rates are around EGP 3,500-7,500 (roughly $70-150) per night, depending on season and booking channel, which places the resort in the mid-range of the Sharm El Sheikh market. The exact entrance and board basis should be confirmed on the booking page before arrival.
