The Breakers Diving and Surfing Lodge opens in Soma Bay

The Breakers Diving and Surfing Lodge opens in Soma Bay on 25 February 2010. This exciting new water sports lifestyle hotel is a first for the luxurious resort destination of Soma Bay and is designed to appeal to divers, windsurfers and kite surfers seeking reasonably priced accommodation in one of the Red Sea’s finest water sport locations.

The Breakers offers quality and affordable lodging in 173 comfortable guest rooms equipped with all modern amenities. The hotel is situated directly opposite the magnificent Soma Bay house reef and adjacent to the well-equipped Dive Centre managed by Orca Dive Clubs. Most of the guest rooms have extraordinary views of the house reef, lagoon, the panoramic jetty and the open sea. Perfectly situated, guests only need take a few steps from the room to the water’s edge.

This exciting new development is the first in Soma Bay to offer a total ‘lifestyle’ concept directed at the specific needs of water sports users. A waterfront restaurant and bar, scenic roof garden, beachside BBQs and outdoor events, panoramic sauna, and heated swimming pool offer many opportunities for relaxation after a day spent on or under the water. Guests staying at The Breakers can also access Soma Bay’s award-winning range of top class leisure facilities including Championship golf at The Cascades, and Leading Spa of the World, Les Thermes Marins des Cascades.

Kite surfer, diver and all-round water man Stefan Reichl is the General Manager of The Breakers Diving and Surfing Lodge, Soma Bay, and he is excited to be bringing his many years of experience in the hospitality and gastronomy business to Soma Bay.

“It is a great pleasure for me to be back in the Red Sea where I previously spent two fantastic years as the Director of the Robinson Club Soma Bay,” says Stefan Reichl. “The Breakers is really going to help put Soma Bay on the map for water sports. Here we have some of the best conditions for windsurfing, diving and kite surfing in the world. The opening of The Breakers means that Soma Bay’s many unique attributes will be more accessible than ever before.”
