In the beginning I will write that we liked the rest, there were 10 of us (age from 25 to 35) and without children!
I am writing a review from the whole company alone !! ! I advise the hotel, BUT for people who are not picky about Egypt! Our guide is Coral Travel.
SETTLEMENT. We arrived at the hotel at 11:00. It takes about 10-15 minutes from the airport to the hotel if you don’t stop at other hotels along the way! Together with us, about 25 people were settled at once in this hotel and it did not work out earlier than 14.00, since the hotel was 80% full for sure! At the reception, as in every hotel, Egyptians who want to earn money (who speak Russian well) work! I immediately write that for me the room is the main part of my holiday in Egypt, so my husband was the first to talk about a good room at the reception (naturally with an additional charge)! And of course there are such numbers! Since we are 10 people, this is 5 rooms and of course we are all friends and we want rooms nearby, so we were settled! Our rooms were: 4213.4214, 4215 - this is the first floor with a sea view (the sea is far away) and with a surcharge of 20 USD for a room for the whole holiday (the amount was immediately announced at the reception and we did not even bargain after we shown them! )
4221 and 4222 are rooms on the second floor overlooking the main building (this is where the main restaurant and reception) - rooms without extra charge!
ACCOMMODATION 5+!
NUMBERS. Regarding the rooms, I will briefly write that before I evaluate the type of room, the first thing I remember is that I am in Egypt, and not in Europe! The rooms at this hotel are basic but not over the top! The only thing I didn’t like about this room was soap and shampoo in the dispenser on the wall, not disposable jars, but I still always wash myself with my own shampoos and shower gels, and it was okay to wash socks or underwear in the dispenser too! Hairdryer, air conditioning and fridge worked without problems! In the shower, the water was always hot, only the pressure was not good, but it doesn't matter! Safe in each room - worked perfectly for all 5 rooms and without incident! The rooms are all the same, normal (not excellent), only the sq. m is different, but not by much! We had one room for a family of three, it had 3 full beds (not folding beds like in some hotels)! Our rooms were very close to the main building (0.5 minutes) and next to the sea (2-3 minutes)! Cleaning, as always in Egypt, it seems to be there, but it seems to be not, our cleaner fulfilled all our requests for a dollar without any problems! There are many videos on YouTube about numbers! Rooms for 4!
The area is great! Well-groomed, beautiful, green (there are few flowers, more greenery), compact (everything is located next to the rooms, wherever you are settled! ) We really liked the fact that you don’t need to wind long kilometers around the territory to go to eat and then return back to the beach or go to the room and then to the beach, etc! Everything is located nearby, as the territory is not large and this was a plus for us! We in the Old City and Naama Bay wound up kilometers perfectly! We had a wedding photo session on the territory with my husband, the pictures came out cool, very beautiful! Territory for 5!
BEACH. There was always enough space and sunbeds for everyone on the beach! There was no need to take seats in the morning or leaving for lunch, afraid that they would be occupied! As I understand it, they also went to our beach from other Shores 5 * and 3 * hotels. The entrance to the sea from pantone immediately to the depth, where you can look at the beautiful underwater world with a mask or just swim, and from the shore you can only walk knee-deep as much as possible, they usually went there with children and you can also see a lot of fish from the shore, they swim nearby ! Since I'm afraid to swim and I don't really like to look at what's underwater, THEN I DO NOT HAVE TO SWIM WHERE IN THIS HOTEL! Only it was possible to wet the legs a little or stand somewhere knee-deep so that the wave would pour over me, and the wave was very often! For our entire stay of 12 nights, I did not see a green flag! There was either a yellow or a red flag! But people always swam either from the shore knee-deep when there was a red flag, or from a pontoon when it was yellow!
The sunbeds are located above the sea, you need to go down to the sea a bit, there are also a few sunbeds, but there are very few of them, and for this, it seemed to me, you need to get up at 6 in the morning to take them and lie on the very seashore! On the beach by 12.00 you can already have a bite to eat (french fries, sausages, buns, vegetables) I didn’t see anything else, but we only took fries with ketchup, and then went for lunch to the main restaurant! Tea, instant coffee with cream and juices (this is a diluted yuppie) with drinks (devices with cola, fanta and sprite) were always on the beach and around the pool in the morning! There is only one pool on the territory, it is divided into 2 parts, the part that is smaller is heated in winter, the water in it was pretty warm, as it seemed to us! The beach was always windy! In December, this is very disturbing, in order to swim well, and then sunbathe, it seemed very cold, but there were no screens from the wind, we made them like everyone else from empty sunbeds, we just put them sideways and it was much more comfortable! The current, for this side of the sea, is normal, we immediately knew about it, although our company always swam and it did not bother them! You can’t swim far, they’ll whistle at you right away! In general, the area in the sea where you can swim is fenced off by buoys, and you can’t swim behind them!
You can look at the underwater world in this hotel, but our men, who have already seen a lot, were not surprised by anything, but they said it was interesting anyway! We went to a paid beach, checked out for us is El Fanar, where you can see a lot more underwater and where you can swim from the shore for those who can not swim or are afraid of the depths like me! There are always empty sun beds and no wind, which was the most important thing for us in December! Entrance costs $6 per person for the whole day! And from the hotel to this beach for a taxi of one car, we paid $ 2 one way! And do not listen to what the taxi drivers say LITTLE, turn around and leave supposedly to look for another car, they themselves will run after you saying Okay, let's go!
There, on the El Fanar beach, we bought one excursion 3 seas, 25 USD per person, from the guide it cost 45 USD per person! We enjoyed this tour! If you have any questions, write, I will answer! What can I write in general about the beach of this Hotel, that it is not for those who cannot swim or are afraid of water!
Beach put 4 with a minus!
Animation - it is, but not for active youth, but for a quiet evening! In the morning, exercises, dancing, volleyball and football in the afternoon, there were several competitions for teams! In the evening, near the pool, there is a bar, at 21.30 or 22.00 it was: karaoke, performances by a guy who sang different beautiful songs, dancing or just playing music! Was in the amphitheater contest Miss Hotel and Mrs Hotel! And at 23.00 they offered to go to a disco with animators! That's all we remember!
When you check in, remember that rooms near the pool are bad because you won’t be able to fall asleep until the music is turned off! We entertained ourselves, we were 10 people and we did not have to be bored! In the bar in the main building, we played cards and drank tequila boom, which was made to us by a good bartender (there is a photo below) for thanks, but we ourselves thanked him (c. u. ) at our discretion, as they did it in the pool bar only for cu! We went to the Old City for 2 c. u. one way and to Naama Bay for 5 c. u. Arrived late already! The bar in the main building is open until 00.00, as well as by the pool!
Animation 4 put, it is, but not as some might like!
Food is another story in this hotel! Reading the reviews, we did not understand those who wrote: You will not stay hungry! But having been there for 3 days, we understood what it means! There is meat, but it is given out only in one piece! If you ask for more, then they may give you, but if the one who distributes it has a mood! It was so unpleasant for us when we had to go for meat and beg several times during lunch and dinner! Our men are not small, and a man needs more meat than a girl, and they put him on a plate - if chicken, then one leg or one wing, or even a back bone, where there is nothing to eat, if goulash, then a tablespoon of it, where there is only one a piece of meat can get in, and the rest in this spoon Vegetables! In short, our men went 4 times for dinner or lunch for meat to eat, but they didn’t just come up and take it, but begged, and with a crooked, displeased face, muttering something rude to himself under his breath, the Arab who distributes it gave! It looked very disgusting, you feel like a beggar!
You will not take meat to yourself in this hotel, they only give it out! There was fish, take it as much as you want, we were afraid to take it, since it was cooked, it was not clear what it was! A lot of vegetables and salads from what was for breakfast if it was lunch, or from what was for lunch if it was dinner! Side dish is rice or potatoes! They also cooked spaghetti in front of you, so they were delicious, and the one who cooked them (there was always the same cook for them) was a rainbow person, eat as much as you want!
Fruits: dates, quinces, oranges or tangerines and bananas, a couple of times strawberries were given 3 pieces to each person! Sweet - these are biscuits with cream with various decorations from fruits or cream! For 2 weeks, only 2 times there were oriental sweets, and then they were swept away instantly! And they didn’t always bring something that was really tasty! Breakfasts are like everywhere else in Egyptian hotels! Every day, only the meat that is given out changed, and the rest is the same every day! For the first 3 days I ate something new for myself, and then everything was the same already! Dishes don't change! The meat is also cooked on the grill! Everything was delicious, but not enough! Fish day is Friday, where they give 3 shrimp and 1 hot smoked fish, which is very tasty!
Meals 4 with a minus, for the rude Arabs who stand on the distribution of meat!
There are no paid restaurants, there is only one main restaurant where breakfast, lunch and dinner are served! There is a paid bar in the main building, we never went there! They said that there is coffee from the machines and alcohol to choose from (not local)! There is a paid laundry, a good spa (paid) on the second floor of the main building and they also do massages on the beach! We liked it! Free gym, there is nothing much to do there!
Bottom line. . . We would return to this hotel again, only if the price was attractive! We gave 1100 USD. for 12 nights from Kyiv for two! This is a great value for this hotel!
