Third time in Egypt. Before that they were only in 5 *. We decided to go to Jungle because of the water park and excellent reviews. Many thanks to everyone who wrote them. Without you, we would not have visited this wonderful hotel! Aquapark - SUPER! About 20 large slides and 2 water parks for kids (in different places around the territory). Water ALL is heated. The rooms are very nice and clean. There are: hair dryer, safe, TV, air conditioning and refrigerator with drinking water. Everything is working. At the slightest difficulty, they immediately come running to the call and solve everything. The only "BUT" is that there are no bathrobes (a little broken, because they were counted on from previous experience). Numbering: on 1 and 2 - at the pools and the water park, if the 2nd digit is "0" - the first floor, if "2" - the second.
Weather: from 8 am you can already comfortably sunbathe, at 12-13 o'clock it was from 25 to 29 degrees - heat; around 16 you already want to get dressed, it's about to go down, and by 18 you already went to dinner in tracksuits and sneakers in complete darkness. You can't do without a sports / suit or jeans with a knitted sweater and closed shoes! Many warned about the wind. We were lucky for the most part it was calm - out of 10 days the wind was 2 days before departure.
About the sea: minibuses run constantly from 8 to 17, drive 7-10 minutes, bring to the beach of the DANA BEACH chain hotel. Very crowded, windy, in the evening in the water that only does not swim : ( The water for swimming is warm enough, but we did not want to swim. We were not upset, because we knew that we were going to the hotel on the 3rd line and no miracles didn't wait.

About the pools (except for the water park): only one is heated - the central one, near the restaurants where animation takes place. The rest - at the reception and all the bungalows - are cold. To my question, when they are warm, they answered that never, even in summer - in order to cool off from the heat. The temperature in them is acceptable in order to plunge for 2 minutes after an hour-long tan or in order to cheer up in the morning "after yesterday". About food: 6 restaurants, many bars, between main meals you can always refresh yourself with pizza, meat from the grill or fruit, ice cream. I was very pleasantly surprised that no one notes anyone anywhere: how many times and where have you already dined, whether you have been to another restaurant or not. In our past 5 *, they noted everywhere, i. e. I went for lunch - a tick, you won’t pass the second one! And here the food process can not stop from 7.00 to 24.00. Eat as much as you like! The menu in the restaurants is different. Lots of vegetables and fruits; meat-poultry-fish is a must for lunch and dinner. For dinner, the roasted whole ducks, turkeys and lamb hams were especially impressive!
From local alcohol, beer and wine (especially pink) are quite acceptable.
Animation is frankly weak: colorful, active personalities, but this activity ends with them. I came to the appointed time for water aerobics for three days, but nothing happened. Every evening, though, there were some performances, but my son and I were already sleeping at that time, so I can’t evaluate it. There are a lot of Germans in the hotel, so I was surprised that all the cartoons and the performance "1000 and 1 night" are in pure Russian. By the way, "1000 and 1 night" (in a nearby hotel) is just a great event for 2.5 hours. We got free tickets for buying an excursion to the reefs. And they are sold like all excursions.
It seems that everything useful has been reported. Once again, EXCELLENCE for the hotel! Have a wonderful holiday everyone!
