Rested a couple of 11 nights, tour operator TUI, Ukraine. We arrived at the hotel at about 21:30, immediately put on bracelets and sent for dinner. Settled in room 550, a bungalow. Number killed, we did not like it, in the morning we went to change. For $ 10 they gave a good room in a two-story building, room 1252 - a very good room, everything is new, clean. Satisfied with the cleaning, cleaned well, constantly brought water to the room.
The territory is huge and very green, well-groomed, clean. The territory is shared by 3 hotels: Ali Baba, Aladdin and Jasmine (not currently open). You can walk for hours. We visited the free water park, which is located on the territory of the Ali Baba hotel, we liked it very much. Lots of slides for kids. But also interesting for adults. There is also a mini zoo with monkeys and dogs.
The beach is huge, about a kilometer long. There are always a lot of free sunbeds. The sea is clean and warm. There were some waves. We mainly rested on Aladdin Beach - there is a sunset in the sea and with sand. as well as from pontoons. Corals and fish are mainly on Ali Baba beach - the fish are very beautiful and diverse.

The food was perfect for us. We ate mostly in the Italian restaurant, which is located near the pool - as there were a lot of people, the restaurant was open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Drinks are carried by the waiters, basically you didn’t have to wait long, they tried to bring everything quickly. We are not whimsical in food, we always found what to eat, the food is varied, there is always a lot of everything, you definitely will not stay hungry. We went to a Mongolian restaurant according to the A la carte system - everything was delicious, although the food was a little peppery. They were satisfied. Drinks, probably, as in all hotels in Egypt - beer is normal, semi-sweet wine from packages, but you can drink. From strong alcohol - rum, vodka, whiskey, gin, brandy, but you can drink only rum and vodka. They didn’t drink in their pure form, they took cocktails. Also various powdered juices and sodas, tea, coffee.
We went on an excursion "Paradise Island", took on the Internet 2 times cheaper than in a hotel ($ 35 for two). There were very positive impressions - everything is at the highest level, everything is organized. So do not be afraid to take excursions from outside agencies.
A couple of times we went into the city by taxi to the fish market. A taxi costs $4 or £.60. They did not dare to buy anything at the market - a disgusting look and smell. We went to the restaurant twice, which is located opposite the "El Halaka" market - very tasty, prices are normal. Recommended. It was difficult to find fruits (maybe we were looking in the wrong place), we found mangoes after an hour and a half of walking around the city, they bought them for 30-35 pounds per kilogram. They also bought figs - 20 pounds per kilogram. We went to the Senzo Mall twice, changed money there at an ATM (there is a similar ATM in the hotel near the reception). In the "Senzo Mall" were in the supermarket, the prices are all adequate (you can pay in the supermarket only in pounds or by card). Taxi to the mall $1, walk 15 minutes. Also near the hotel there is a shop "Cleopatra" with fixed prices, as well as a mini market, but there is no fruit.
Bottom line - we really enjoyed our stay. The hotel is definitely recommended.
