In order to go here you need to weigh everything, because the hotel is 4-star, if not 3-star.
The beach here is very cool, with a gentle sunset and corals. Corals are at a shallow depth within the beach, which is very convenient, because you can not step on them with your feet. There are many fish, to their surprise they saw a small moray eel, a large sea turtle, a stingray.
The only negative from the beach - the old sunbeds (20 years), some reinforced, and those that it is divided into 2 parts, one of which was given to surfers and entertainment.
There is a marine entertainment station and a surfing area next to the hotel.
The hotel is a bunch of small two-story houses. The first days I wandered several times, because the signs are very incomprehensible and illogical.
Wi-Fi, as everywhere, works only at the reception.
Drinks and water are only available at the reception.

There is a bar with different drinks nearby, but you have to go there, which is not convenient when you are sitting on the Internet.
The rooms are not very new, but everything is comfortable, on site and without breakdowns. Although the closet door broke during our vacation, the staff spent 3 days repairing it. As soon as they complained about the guide - everything was done at once. We had a family room with two TVs, which was not very convenient, because the TVs responded to the same remote control: you switch in yourself, switch in the nursery, turn off in yourself, and the children turn on.
Food. It has a high-quality water purification system, so the food here does not have the unique taste of Egyptian hotels. All breakfasts are the same. But lunch and evening are a themed menu every day and it's cool and delicious. The choice of dishes here is not as large as in 5-star hotels, which many of the holidaymakers complained about.
But the food here is really tasty, you can eat a leather dish, instead of choosing for hours from a pile of rubbish. By the way, pancakes for breakfast here are the most delicious in all of Hurghada.
The only thing missing was nutella for the kids.
He was not allowed to take the food himself, forcing the staff. It turned out to be convenient, because the food was not scattered, and they put as much as they wanted on the plate.
The a la carte restaurant is not impressive, except for the Moroccan one - it's just a bomb: the design, serving and taste - just great.
The hotel area is compact and comfortable, no need to spend hours hiking to the beach or restaurant.
If you lose something, you will not find it. In all the hotels, everything was searched quickly, and here the children ruined a few speeches and all ...There is no bureau of finds.
There are a lot of shops with a variety of goods on the territory of the hotel, so there is no great need to go to the city.
But what struck me unpleasantly is the pharmacy, where prices are 5-10 times higher than in the city.

Animation at zero. Animators change into different outfits every night, but their parties are monotonous and 10 years old or less.
Children's discos are the same thing every day.
There were few staff, apparently due to kovid.
Staff attitude. For tips, all the doors open to you here, the staff in the restaurants become very friendly and even provide you with what is not in the general menu.
There were many locals among the vacationers and the attitude of the staff was very different. To the locals - anything. For others - not always, but quite often a contemptuous attitude. I especially encountered this in a restaurant when a pastry chef refused to give cookies, arguing that it was not enough, but before that the Egyptians imposed even on top. It's good that the cook came to his senses quickly and I didn't have to regret it.
And there was a case in the gym when I was asked to go out because I was in flip-flops and without sneakers, but the locals were not affected.
In general, we knew where we were going and chose this hotel solely for the classy beach, which lived up to all our expectations.
They were not hungry either.
We didn't pay any more attention to everything else.
