Tanoak Hotel is Ain el-Sokhna’s Newest Boutique Destination

Egypt’s Ain el-Sokhna, nestled on the Red Sea less than two hours drive from Cairo, has seemingly fallen into a rut in recent years. With attention being poured into the country’s many other seaside destinations, it’s been a while since a new lifestyle destination has sashayed onto its shores.

Tanoak Hotel at the Azha Ain Sokhna resort community resort looks set to bring back the buzz. The 146-room boutique hotel embraces minimalism while staying close to nature. Straw and bamboo accents embellish their cream-coloured interiors, creating an earthy ambience. The result is serene, crisp spaces that invite in ample amounts of air and light.

Good things come in small packages and there’s plenty in this package, including the Boscage International Restaurant, two bars and the Tanoak Clubhouse fuelled by famed Turkish chef Nurettin Celik.

So, whose heading to Sokhna this weekend?
