InterContinental The Palace Port Ghalib Resort

The Palace Port Ghalib is a majestic representation of love, both of the heart and the environment. Originally built as a symbol of Ghalib’s love for his beautiful wife, the hotel artfully integrates lavish landscaping, water features and cascading greenery that transports guests into another world for a true taste of paradise. A refined feel of the Orient marries gracefully with Islamic gardens and water pavilions. The expansive salt-water lagoon was designed with a cultural identity that is uniquely Egyptian. Water lovers won’t want to miss our exceptional scuba diving opportunities where sightings of spinner dolphins, dugongs and hammerhead sharks are a frequent occurrence. Marsa Alam International Airport is less than five minutes drive from the heart of Port Ghalib.

* The Olive Restaurant sets the right mood for any occasion with an array of ancient Arabic and Mediterranean dishes created with a fresh twist. From lunch served on the outdoor terrace to indoor dining amid Arabian décor, an elegant dining experience is guaranteed. In the evening watch the night sky unfold amongst grand old palm trees overlooking the Red Sea.

* Guests will enjoy bathrooms with large baths and walk-in showers, traditional arches, decorative latticework and intricate plaster mouldings – true to the heritage of this fine style. The effect is one of fashioned luxury within a traditional framework.
