This was my second holiday abroad this year. So there was a money limit. We chose Jasmine, relying on the reviews of friends. But as it turned out, Jasmine is now being renovated, and we were settled in Ali Baba. I went with my mother and two daughters (3 and 12 years old). And so about everything in order.
Territory of the hotel: very large, a lot of greenery, everything is very carefully looked after. The territory is clean.
If you want to take a break from people and fuss, then this is not about this hotel. It's always crowded, everything is teeming with people.
Pools: quite long, but without frills. One children's pool. In the evening they are beautifully illuminated.
Beach: in Jasmine, the beach is fabulous, sand and clear sea. In Ali Baba, the entrance is inconvenient, but tolerable. There are pebbles. There is a small reef about 100 meters from the shore. Be sure to bring your mask and fins with you.

Food: If we talk about baby food, then this is a problem here. There is simply nothing to feed babies under 3 years old. There is also nothing special to highlight on the common table, you can feel the savings in everything. Fruits are only oranges and dates, watermelons are not every day. And most importantly, there is nowhere to buy them nearby.
Animation: Weak. Four Russian girls. And what can they do with so many people, it is clear that they are trying but not getting it. In the evening, a disco for children, not a bad one, the children dance with pleasure. Animator Kristina included in the repertoire of the boring "Aram-Zam-Zam" Russian songs Pinocchio and Clouds. Thanks to her for this. Live music every evening, an Egyptian singer perfectly sings a different repertoire. There are very few visiting artists. Disco from 23:00 indoors. Basically good, but not numerous.
Excursions were taken in Pegasus: I really liked diving. I took a safari at the hotel, the program is much cheaper. But the group is mixed, both Russians and foreigners. This gives color and does not bother fellow countrymen with fuss. Foreigners are more positive people.
Cleaning: disgusting, dirty. Everything in the room is old, the hotel has not been updated and renovated for a long time.
Egyptians: girls, girls, women, Egyptian men have prepared for you a lot of compliments and meaningful glances, as well as a respectful attitude towards Women and children.
All that was minuses in Egypt will definitely overlap with the pluses of the Red Sea. This fabulous world will never cease to be interesting to me, no matter what hotel I live in. I dream of returning to Egypt again and again, and it doesn’t matter which hotel. None of us were bored here.
I wish you all pleasant and bright impressions! And in Egypt there are a lot of them! Good luck!! !
