Pickalbatros Golf Luxury Suites (ex. Rixos Golf Villas)

Sharm El Sheikhfrom from £250/night
Multi-bedroom villas with private pool and hot tub – confirmed under the property's previous Rixos Golf Villas & Suites branding as Royal Villa, Queen Villa and Presidential Villa; confirm current villa category names since the 2025/2026 rebrand to Pickalbatros

This property changed hands and rebranded from Rixos Golf Villas & Suites to Pickalbatros Golf Luxury Suites in 2025/2026, while keeping the strongest Booking.com rating of any confirmed private-pool property in Sharm El Sheikh. Recent guest reviews continue to describe multi-bedroom villas with a private pool and hot tub, built around the resort's golf course rather than directly on the beach.

Because the rebrand happened recently, the specific villa category names confirmed under the previous Rixos ownership (Royal Villa, Queen Villa, Presidential Villa) may have changed under Pickalbatros management – always verify the exact current category and pool status directly with the hotel or through Booking.com before finalizing a reservation.

The golf course setting is a genuine point of difference from Sharm's beachfront resorts, though it means a shuttle transfer is typically needed to reach the sea.

Highest Booking.com score of any confirmed private-pool property in Sharm El Sheikh
Multi-bedroom villas with private pool and hot tub, suited to families or groups
Golf course setting is unusual among Sharm's mostly beachfront resort-style properties
Recently rebranded from Rixos to Pickalbatros – confirm current villa names before booking
Golf-course inland setting means a shuttle is typically needed for direct beach access
All-inclusive resort scale, less intimate than Villa Shahrazad's standalone villa format

Villa Shahrazad Sharm El Sheikh

Nabq Bay, Sharm El Sheikhfrom from £90/night
Whole villa rental – private outdoor pool with hot tub and waterfall, private garden

Villa Shahrazad is a standalone villa rental in Nabq Bay, north of Sharm El Sheikh's main hotel strip, with its own outdoor pool complete with a hot tub and waterfall feature, plus a private garden. The whole villa – living room, kitchen and private grounds – is the booking unit, similar in format to Malta and Puglia's confirmed farmhouse-style private-pool rentals.

At the lowest confirmed rate in this guide, it suits travelers who want a self-contained villa with a genuinely private pool over resort-style facilities and dining options.

Best Ultra-Luxury

Four Seasons Resort Sharm El Sheikh

Sharm El Sheikhfrom from £450/night
One-Bedroom Suite with Plunge Pool and Two-Bedroom Suites – part of a 52-suite collection with private pools and gardens; the Four-Bedroom Villa and Royal Suite (The Palace) also include private pools

Four Seasons Resort Sharm El Sheikh offers 52 luxury suites, many with private pools and gardens, ranging from the entry One-Bedroom Suite with Plunge Pool up to standalone beachfront residences. The Four-Bedroom Villa is a two-level, stand-alone residence roughly 300 meters from the beach with its own private pool and an in-villa dining setup with a dedicated chef.

At the top of the property's inventory, The Palace – part of the Royal Suite category – has three bedrooms and two private swimming pools with 24-hour personal attendant service. This is the most internationally recognized brand among Sharm's confirmed private-pool properties.

Best Villas

Royal Savoy Sharm El Sheikh

Soho Square, Sharm El Sheikhfrom from £220/night
Villa Giza (3-bedroom, private pool + Jacuzzi) · Villa Queen Nazli (4-bedroom, private pool + Jacuzzi) · Villa Queen Cleopatra (4-bedroom, private pool) – all separate from the resort's 3 shared pools

Royal Savoy sits in the center of Soho Square, Sharm El Sheikh's dining and entertainment district, and its villa collection is the widest named range on this list: Villa Giza and Villa Queen Nazli each have a private pool and Jacuzzi, while Villa Queen Cleopatra has a private pool without a Jacuzzi. All are separate from the resort's three shared pools.

This is an adults-only property with butler service available on request, and the Soho Square location puts restaurants and nightlife within walking distance – a different setting from the more secluded Villa Shahrazad or golf-course Pickalbatros.

When to go

March–May and October–November are Sharm El Sheikh's most comfortable months for a private-pool stay: warm enough for the pool and Red Sea, without the extreme summer heat that regularly pushes past 38°C in July and August. Winter (December–February) is mild and popular with UK travelers escaping cold weather, though evenings can be cool. Sharm El Sheikh International Airport (SSH) is small and close to most resorts, 15–40 minutes depending on which bay the hotel sits in. For a shorter-haul Mediterranean alternative with confirmed private-pool stays, compare against Cyprus or Morocco's Marrakech.
