I will try to be as objective as possible in this review. We had a good time at the Jaz Maraya. The stay was generally positive, thanks in particular to Mahmoud, who handled room cleaning; Souleyman at the bar, whose warmth was genuine rather than forced; and Yvette, the entertainment staff member, with whom we shared plenty of laughs. However, there were some flaws that could be improved: my first interaction with the staff was at breakfast, where the waiter, Mohamed, offered me a glass of fresh orange juice for a fee—something that happened every morning. We were essentially forced to choose between a very low-quality, neon-colored industrial orange juice that was a health hazard, or paying extra for fresh juice. I found this highly inappropriate. My wife and daughter fell ill, likely due to the food. We had stayed at the Jaz Amara, another jaz hotel in Marsa Alam, twice before without encountering any such issues. We were very worried about my wife, who was in a particularly critical state and bedridden for the day. I do want to mention that the place is very lovely, featuring a magnificent coral bay and clean, well-maintained facilities. We certainly won't be returning, though; our experience at another Jaz hotel was far better.
