I'm surprised by the reviews! Of course, I cannot remain silent. It's good that despite the reviews, nevertheless, let's go. We have been in Egypt many times, more than 10 for sure, in different hotels, in different places, in fives. We are in this hotel for the fourth time. True, they were in it for a very long time, about 10 years ago, so they were afraid that everything had changed. I don’t know, maybe the people who wrote it were so unlucky that they write negative reviews. I will describe my observations and the changes in this hotel.
Yes, the hotel has become sooo many vacationers, as never before, but! The hotel does this surprisingly well! Lots of new sunbeds! , there are always free ones, a big bar on the beach has been built, a lot of staff is working, many volleyball courts have been added, which were filled with happy vacationers all the time). In the main restaurant also, a lot of people, but! the distribution is well organized (the queue goes very quickly, half a minute, everything is always brought. There is no such thing that something was not enough). I liked that in quarantine conditions, the food was behind glass, they were served individually, the appliances were packed. If you are friendly, then you will always be given the best pieces and large portions. (remember the cartoon about little Raccoon). The truth was written in the reviews that the staff is well-trained, excellent! Well done boys! Delicate and not intrusive. Despite some vacationers, patient.
Food in restaurants is very tasty, Europeanized! Compared to previous years, it's much better. Always a great selection of everything. Very tasty meat, poultry, fish (I didn’t like some types, so I didn’t take it), tuna and others. Very tasty fried fish, like our crucians, only without bones. Who loves - I recommend! ). Had a seafood day. Pleased with fresh salads, a lot of greens (arugula, lettuce, basil, etc. ), delicious sauces and seasonings. Potatoes are a separate issue, super. A large number of fruits: figs, pomegranate, melon, various types of citrus fruits. Baking for every taste! Everything is very delicious! The coffee in the machine is natural, nasty, but with the addition of delicious milk - excellent, even very good). Wine is gross. White didn’t go anywhere, but we didn’t drink. The beer is delicious, I recommend it. They made cocktails with rum and sprite, it’s also good, try it). And, if you don’t like the “canteen”, two minutes at No. 2 taf-taf - and you are in the Harem restaurant. There are fewer people and a little more choice.

Towels! (very worried about this, because of the reviews). I don’t know, maybe they changed something, fixed it, but we didn’t have any problems. And did not observe problems in others. They gave cards upon check-in, and leaving the beach they handed over towels, no problem, they didn’t carry them around.
The rooms are tired, yes, but they have always been like that. True, there was a renovation in Aquamarine and the rooms, in general, are not bad, everything worked. We were cleaned well, towels were changed every day, the water was very hot, enough. Nothing was stressful.
Mosquitoes! take the fumigator and spray. Although they are poisoned in the hotel, but apparently it does not help ((.
Animation - super, on top, the best of all hotels, but it has always been like this)).
The contingent - if you take into account the number of vacationers, then it's also normal. Or maybe we just didn’t spend the whole day at the bar, so we didn’t encounter rudeness)). But I can say that most vacationers walk with happy smiling faces, so everything is fine!
Weather - early December - great, warm! This is not January for you ((. True, on some days there was a cold wind. But you can always swim. In the evening - a blouse with a sleeve.
Moore... a fairy tale! That is why we often return to Domina. There is no such coast and reef anywhere else! (we were also in Marsa Alam). They wrote “corals are dying” - nothing is dying, everything is in order)). Who swims a lot - you are here. There are definitely places to swim and things to see. Wound for 6 km. True, according to my observations, the fish became smaller.
Conclusion: we all loved it! It's been a week of celebration! We are very glad that Domina did not deteriorate! )). We are very glad that they are working on the quality of service, and are not disregarded, as in some hotels.
Thanks for the rest!
