Friends! just returned from this hotel and absolutely enchanted!
The hotel is really quiet and comfortable, and after walking around the territory of two more (Arabia and Arabella) they returned - like home... Location - 20 minutes from the airport, the staff is wonderful and very friendly, the food is delicious, the beach for every taste - both sand and pebbles , there were always enough sun loungers, the territory is huge, the reef is excellent for Hurghada, the city and all the entertainment are nearby, the population is well, Egypt is like Egypt, annoying, but kind (one owner of the shop treated us to tea and hookah for an hour and a half - just like that! ) Pool - just super, huge and warm - they swam so early in the morning or after 15 - when it's already cool in the sea...
The rooms, of course, are not new, but quite charming - everything is in order, there is a hairdryer, a refrigerator, a kettle, supplies are regularly replenished... Everywhere is clean and tidy, the staff constantly washes and cleans something... The service is decent, they like tips like everywhere else. . . They are very surprised at English-speaking and smiling Russians... they say - a rarity (smile and wave! )

Animation, no, apparently 16 years old, two girls and a boy - even weakly speak English, for the entire rest they once tried to organize a disco, while they themselves sat and smoked on the sidelines...
The population of the hotel - of course, as already mentioned - the Germans, and the elderly, a lot of wheelchairs - conditions are also created for them - pontoons are everywhere. But, due to the same population - after 21-00 silence....walk - to neighboring Arabia or Arabella (there is a disco, by the way, super).
There is also a good diving club in Arabella, excellent equipment, yachts, boats, cars and insanely friendly and charming staff (hello Mike and Anna! ) were trained (OPEN) there! There are no Russian-speaking instructors - you need to know English or German!
The weather let us down only one day, when they didn’t even undress, and so they sunbathed during the day, and in the evening you need to be prepared for the wind, of course, it’s not the season!
In total - I definitely don’t recommend it to young people, to families with small children - too (in 7 days we didn’t see children’s animation or classes with children), and if you don’t need much entertainment, you are not particularly demanding in everyday life, you know the school English course, and most of all appreciate the atmosphere of coziness and comfort - you are here! We enjoyed our stay very much, we will definitely come again!
