The hotel is located on two coastlines. The condition of the buildings and repairs is good, everything is new, working and neat.
We chose the Premium Room on 1 line. By the way, note that even this type of room differs significantly from the distance to the sea and the view from the balcony (pool, garden, sea). Some are just steps away from the beach.
A shuttle to the hotel is included in your tour, although the driver will ask for a dollar for the service - about 8-10 minutes from the airport.

Sim card: at the airport it is possible to buy a card Vodafon (10 dollars), EtiSalat (17 dollars), Orange (10 dollars). We planned to buy so that we would always be in touch, but there were very long queues and we decided to buy later. It is good that you did not buy because Wi-Fi in the hotel is free and very high quality, to catch in the rooms and throughout the territory, only on the beach there is none. The password from him is issued to you at the reception at the settlement with other documents and cards.
Receptionists speak only English, so it is important to know at least a couple of key phrases. Pay attention to this! ! ! !!
The buildings are three-storey, new, beautiful (there are stairs and elevators), the rooms are opened with an electronic card lock. The rooms fully correspond to the photo on the hotel's website. There is a TV, refrigerator for mini-bar, it is by the way paid at the hotel, so empty, must be ordered separately. There is also the possibility to pay for food in the room. The air conditioner is built-in, shared, we worked, no noise, but I advise you to turn it off at night. Very large spacious bathroom (shower, sink, toilet with bidet). Large mirrors are placed everywhere.
The hotel has a pharmacy, ATM, shops with jewelry, clothing, oils and everything you need for a beach holiday, but of course the prices will be higher. Across the street from the hotel there is a whole alley of shops, where prices are lower, but also inflated.
In the morning there is a delicious milk rice and baby oatmeal appreciated, but lunch and dinner will have to look for and choose! ! ! ! ! ! ! There is a kettle in the room - it is possible to brew some mixtures or porridges for the child!
By the way, when it comes to coffee and alcoholic beverages, I can't agree with the previous commentators that they are of good quality (gin, whiskey, brandy, vodka).
Staff - very high level of service, always very attentive and friendly, despite the fact that the hotel is 100% full, during meals all seats in the restaurant are occupied, but the waiters very quickly clean, provide sets of dishes and accommodate tourists.

We rested with the baby, so all the employees of the restaurant always smiled at him and waved a friendly pen, he was delighted, pleasantly surprised by the waiters who remembered our orders and especially the esteemed waiter Muhammad (bald guy), who was always interested in business, put the baby at the table , where the air conditioner does not blow, bringing a set of wooden appliances and always wished Delicious! The receptionist always solved all questions quickly and kindly, for free! ! ! !!
Water in the room - daily 1.5 l / man of bottled local water.
Cleaning - I really liked the man who cleaned our room, a professional, I do not know his name, but he is 25 and he is from Luxor, daily cleaning and change of towels. The room in the closet has a built-in safe, everything is safe and tested, I advise you to use it in peace for your comfort! ! ! !!
Hairdryer and slippers on request at the reception without any problems, immediately bring, for free.
The beach is private, guarded, there were always 2 lifeguards, quite large, clean, sandy, gentle sunset, then depth, buoys away.
Sunbeds and umbrellas on the beach are there, take them early in the morning, with this question really is, but the staff will always find you free and move to the right place without problems.
Towels on the beach and by the pool are issued on cards, free of charge, but 1 per person per day, enough for everyone.
Pools in the hotel 3 (heated only 1-shallow children's), there is a slide, fountains for kids.
There are also sun loungers and parasols around the pools. There is a pool bar, but did not use, do not know the schedule of its work.
The area is very beautiful and green, a bunch of different plants, cacti, palm trees, orange and banana trees. Seabirds often roam the lawn.
Restaurants a la carte 2-fish on the beach and Italian, at the entrance to the hotel.
They need to register in advance at the main restaurant every day from 13.00.

00 to 15:00. Each tourist has the right to visit each restaurant once free of charge. But the menu in the Italian La Casa is very tasty and large portions, wine is also offered for free, I advise you we really liked, and from the fish restaurant Lagoona - this is the bottom, disappointed. You will be offered to order grilled shrimps for $ 15 from the very beginning, all alcoholic beverages are also paid, and only then will bring a free menu. The menu offers a choice of 3 dishes, but crab puree soup was great color, texture and smell, even with sand, grilled fish with a portion of rice to taste like a long-rotten fish seasoned with a bunch of spices. They didn't eat anything, they just ate, and the next day they ran to the toilets with intestinal problems. Unfortunately! ! ! !!
Excursions in Hurghada and Egypt in general are offered a lot, the prices at the hotel are a bit high!
In general, we had incredible pleasure from the holiday, I advise and hope someone will help some of my comments)))))
