Hotel ratings by criteria:
Was at the hotel from 02 to 16 May 2014. Impressions are twofold. The most important advantage of the hotel is that next to it there is a stable with Arabian horses and you can ride them there, swim in the sea on horseback (we went far from the hotel’s beach and the sea really was there). We went to the desert on horseback at night several times in the company of German women. The owner of the horses, Tito, speaks good Russian. The horses are calm, well-trained, suitable even for children. In general, if not for the horses, then my vacation would have been completely ruined. And so I had a great rest! Following. once I will go to another hotel in Hurghada, which I love and have been there 3 times already. And Tito said that he takes tourists by taxi from any hotel in Hurghada! This made me very happy. I am writing his phone, maybe someone like me wants to ride. +201110082804 Because you will go far on horseback and swim in the sea! Which the hotel simply does not have! So, in order.
Hotel pros:
- large and very well-kept area. Everywhere flowers.

- well-trained and unobtrusive staff.
- good children's animation. With children and on the beach, and in the evening some holidays and children's discos are constantly engaged.
This is where the positives of the hotel end.
Minuses:
- no sea. Not at all. Even if you walk along the pier, you don’t want to swim there. The water is covered with an oil film. However, I went only once and maybe I was just unlucky. And the shore is ankle-deep water and often silt instead of sand. But a lot of big crabs are interesting to watch.
- food. Of the delicious, I can only note the fish in the fish restaurant on the beach in the evening. All. From fruits, oranges and dates and nothing else. From other things... I can not mention anything at all. I ate cucumbers and tomatoes for the whole summer ahead, I can’t look at them. I don't eat meat, eggs or chicken, so there was simply nothing to eat there. Compared to the hotels of the Dessole chain, where I used to be, this hotel... just tin.
- alcohol. Well. . . you can try some cocktails, they have almost no alcohol in them. Anything more than that, I just don't recommend it. Bring with you. And it's not "ultra all inclusive"! Far! For some reason, the poor bartender on the beach was tired and angry since the morning. Either he was angry with us Russians, or in general with his life. But the impression of the hotel greatly spoiled.
- In the pool (in the deep one, I don't know about the others) it smells strongly of chlorine. In general, there is no sea, and climbing into the pool was also not a thrill.
- The hotel is very boring.
That's all, in a nutshell. One thing is clear that I will definitely go to Hurghada again. But in other hotel. And this time only for the sake of riding Arabian horses through the night desert.
