The Definitive Guide to Living in the Capital , Cairo , Egypt

We’re sorry to be the ones to break the news, but guys, summer’s almost over. Sigh. We still have plenty of time to get some sun, sea and sand, but those days are numbered.

We feel it’s only right, then, that we help you get your dose of vitamin D in the best way possible; and there are few better ways than heading north, not to Sahel, but to the original summer hotspot, Alexandria. We all know about the great food and fantastic, relaxed vibes of Egypt’s second largest city, but the Four Seasons San Stefano channels all of that and wraps it up with the luxury we’ve all come to expect of the Four Seasons name.

The hotel’s private beach is as stunning a stretch as you’ll find along the city’s coasts, but what really clinches it are the fancy private cabanas, where you can kick-back and take in the sights and the sounds, while munching on some top-notch food. It’s a perfect family fete, with plenty for kids to do, too, including the hotel’s special playground.

And so there you have it. Make the last few weeks of the summer count by calling (+2) 03-581 8000 or emailing alx.reservations@fourseasons.com.
