New hotel in Sahl Hasheesh Bay

Jaz Elite Asteria 5*

A brand-new hotel in the Sahl Hasheesh area, officially opened its doors on May 1, 2025.
We had already booked it for our clients and later decided to choose it for our own family vacation as well.

The hotel is the last one in the bay, located right behind the Gravity Hotel.

Upon arrival, guests receive their wristbands immediately, and they are not removed upon check-out.

Day Use is available from 10:00 to 18:00 and costs $87.
For children under 6 — free, and from 6 years old — 50% discount.
We also used this option ourselves, booking it for our child’s birthday celebration.
For a group of moms with small children, it’s an excellent way to spend a full day by the sea.

The hotel was fully booked (100%) during our stay.

It is perfect for refined and active family vacations.
Not ideal for couples — the hotel is mainly visited by families with children, and there are plenty of them.

However, there’s an Infinity Pool with stylish island beds for adults only.

The multi-level landscape of the resort is incredibly beautiful, stylish, and surprisingly green for a new hotel.

There are many pools, but due to high occupancy, it may be difficult to find free sunbeds.
Fortunately, the staff is very attentive and always willing to help guests find a spot.

The water park is located closer to the beach.
You need to carry your own inflatable tubes uphill, as there’s no lift.

There are 7 slides in total — everyone will find something suitable.

Beach and pool staff are very attentive — they occasionally offer to bring drinks and even wipe your sunglasses.

Throughout the day, bars across the hotel have freezers with individually packed ice cream in various flavors.

The beach is equipped with plenty of stylish straw umbrellas and sun loungers.
The sand is soft and fine, very pleasant to walk on.

At the time of our stay, the pier was nearly completed — the structure was finished, but minor works were ongoing.
It’s expected to open at the end of September (as of early October, it was still closed).
Guests can walk to the nearby lagoon, and for those who want to see the coral reef, a golf cart runs from the reception to the pier of the Gravity Hotel.

The gym is located in the right wing of the main building, on the upper floor, with a panoramic sea view.
A spacious hall with modern equipment, open until midnight (possibly 24/7, not confirmed).
Detox water, paper cups, and towels are available.

Wi-Fi is high-speed, free, and works perfectly throughout the property and in the rooms.

The kids’ club is located near the beach and features a pool and playground.
It’s made up of themed houses — a Lego room, playroom, art space, etc.
For older children, there’s a PlayStation area and a billiard room with three tables, open until midnight (tested personally).

Animation is very active — a large animation team runs activities throughout the day.

Evening shows are high-quality, with professional guest performers.

We booked a Deluxe Family Pool View Room for a family of three adults and one six-year-old child.
It’s a two-room suite with a connecting door.
At the entrance — a spacious children’s room with a window facing the territory, two beds with a lamped table between them, and a desk with a mirror opposite.
Between the kids’ and the main room there’s a large wardrobe — plenty of space for a big family.
There’s a safe, bathrobes, and a minibar fully stocked with anything a guest might want (everything chargeable except the tea set and bottled water).
Water is provided only in glass bottles.

The bathroom is spacious and convenient, with two sinks and a large shower.
Liquid soap, body lotion, shampoo and shower gel are in dispensers.
Unfortunately, no hair conditioner, which would be a problem if you have long hair (luckily we had our own).
The main room is bright and cozy with a small balcony overlooking the entire resort and the sea.

If your flight departs long after check-out, you can use a special room with showers and towels to freshen up.

There’s shampoo and shower gel in dispensers, clean towels — but no power outlet, so you can’t use your own hairdryer.
The only outlet I found was in the gym restroom.

Because the hotel provides only glass bottles for water (no plastic), we bought a stylish metal refillable bottle with the JAZ logo — available in green or black for $10.
You can refill it at any hotel bar.

À la carte restaurants — very tasty, with excellent service and variety.
