Sol Y Mar Pioneers Hotel

Western Desert


This vast salmon-pink resort still offers the most comfortable and only properly clean rooms in Al Kharga. The staff is wonderfully friendly, the swimming pool is a godsend on a hot day, and the vast, lush gardens are a heavenly escape. Obvious wear and tear to the spacious rooms, however, makes it ridiculously overpriced.

The restaurant is the only place in town where you can count on getting alcohol.
