Nujuma, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve

The service was great. Food was amazing. The activities were endless and overall just good fun. Our driver Stephan was always very willing to help and always told us the best spots to go to. The only downside of the trip was the cold weather but there is nothing the personnel could have done about that.

It was a very nice place with great service. The weather was cold and windy. But I guess that in summer it must be amazing. We tried diving and water sports. They offered all the most modern gadgets like efoil, escooter and seabob. Stephan took great care of us.

I’ve been lucky enough to travel to a lot of great hotels, and don’t mind paying up for great experiences, but sadly I think Nujuma takes the cake for one of the most scandalous voluntary robberies I’ve ever subjected myself to (up there with the Santa Marina in Mykonos, interestingly both Marriotts). Besides the fact that $2,700/night is AT LEAST double, and maybe three times what’s a fair price for the quality, the most insulting part about it is that once you book, they reveal that the astronomical price doesn’t even include the cost for the boat ride to and from the property. On top of that, the food is both very poor and very expensive (and you obviously have no other option since you’re stuck on a small island), so there’s really no end to the grift. I was so disappointed by lunch that I didn’t bother having dinner. The property is very unremarkable, the tranquility of walking or biking around spoiled the constant buggies and supply carts that will pass you every 2 minutes, and the views are spoiled by overlooking the adjacent St Regis. The rooms, while spacious, are quite charmless in my opinion. On top of it all - the hotel failed to honour my Amex benefit of a guaranteed upgrade on availability, and didn’t apply my credit either until I insisted on it twice and showed them proof I booked through Amex. It’s the only time this has ever happened - these benefits are usually applied automatically. If you’re looking for a small private island retreat, go to Amanpulo in the Philippines instead - FAR more beautiful island, far better hotel, better food, for a far lower price. There’s just no comparison.

Literally everything at this place exceeded my expectations. Hospitality is top notch & the staff was the best. Stefan looked after us and we will definitely be back again. My favourite place on earth to visit. Loved everything there , nothing disappointed

Saudi Arabia, Red Sea is a must see. The Ritz-Carlton Nujuma is Exceptional on all levels. Spectacular service, views of the Red Sea from our villa on the beach was breathtaking. It was winter and quiet which was harmonious for us. Our personal butler Riaj went out of his way to accommodate our every need big or small. Tony and his GM team are well versed in keeping the whole resort in top form which was evident daily. We will return again and again with pleasure.
