Quiet bunch on here aren`t you
Yeah well, I don't go for the nightlife, and the hotel is all inclusive so I've no idea how much the food and drink costs..
I'm not sure of price of drinks I'm afraid. I know my Mum paid something ridiculous like £7 for a Pina Colada in the Hard Rock Cafe last year though so I'm guessing alcohol is quite pricey.
I ate at the HRC a couple of years ago and remember being very well fed for a very reasonable price.
There's great snorkelling to be found at the Conrad as well as a wonderful beach (lots of info and my pics in the Conrad thread). The Conrad is about fifteen minutes by bus/taxi from Naama Bay.

Food was relatively cheap - two beers and a basic meal (starter and main course) was around £15 for the two of us.
have a look at these maps which should give you some idea and also hotel locations in sharm .basically the first map shows you the area around NB and the second as it gets further out. If you decide on something further out the taxis are cheap/easy and the hotel usually supplies a courtesy bus. nothing should be more than about 20mins away.

Thank you for the replies, certainly some food for thought there, will have a good long look at the options available and who knows I might just make there for next May
i'm a goa holic too-seen your posts on the goa page-booked our 4th trip to goa and then found out about the visa situation! we have been to sharm three times in the last 2 years and loved it! stayed in the hilton sharks bay a/i -great hotel.but we still like to go out into town.had a meal a few times in namma bay,always the same tho different restaurants.prawn cocktail,fillet steak plus bottle of wine,2 beers and coffee about £35-£40. this included the tax (about 20% in all and a tip) the prices are quite cheap to start but they add on tax to your final bill.we had a couple of large bottles of beer in a bar and it was about £3.40 so we left £4.00.we really like sharm but its not goa! we still want to go back again but feel a/i is the best value. the local beer sakara is really good and its on draught at the hilton (in proper glasses not plastic) they also do bottled stella but its not the same brand as in england.its a really lovely holiday but completely different to goa.the weather and snorkelling is fantastic and the people are very friendly.you must still haggle hard in all the shops.the airport is the only one i have been to where they have loads of shops and they were cheaper than the resort-and you can haggle!try it for a week as we did the first time and research your hotel.as i said we went to the hilton three times and want to go back the staff are fantastic and remember you when you return
