Rested company, two couples, decided to relax without children). We chose this hotel for several reasons, the first is low cost, the second is the beach with its own reef, the third is not on the edge of geography, but near the center, so that you can walk in the evenings. In fact, King turned out to be the only one suitable in all respects. The really unflattering reviews were embarrassing, but we were mentally prepared.
So, settlement. They refused to move to the Sphinx for money, the rooms were arranged, they lived through 3 rooms from each other. In general, even a side view of the sea was not bad.
Territory. Small, even taking into account both hotels, which are essentially one whole, the owner is one. Atmospheric, in Egyptian style. There is enough greenery, a lot of flowers, order in this regard is maintained. Something like a menagerie, but I personally am against such "entertainment". There are several pools, one with slides, but this is more for winter recreation, with the condition that it will be heated. We were on the beach all the time.

Beach. There is enough space for everyone, sunbeds are more busy from the side of the King, where there is a sandy gentle entry. From the side of the Sphinx there are more free places, but there immediately to the depth to the coral. Lots of fish to see.
Leisure. There is a team of animators, well, amateur performances), we saw them learning dances with those who wish, there is also volleyball. playground. There is a place to go outside the hotel, this is the area of ​ ​ the so-called. old city. Shops, cafes, pharmacies and the embankment are not far away, if you wish, you can walk. We dedicated one day for the tour, but without losing a beach holiday, we went to Marsa Alam in Abu Dabab, to swim among the turtles. Mega cool, you've never seen anything like this up close in wildlife. And they really are there and there are many of them, of different sizes, it must be seen. True, it was hard for me to swim, in one section there was a current, the instructor helped, the rest did it themselves. All in all it's great. We ordered through locals in Tiba by a Turk, payment at the beginning, the manager and escort were Russian-speaking.
Nutrition. Well, this is probably the weakest side, no, we were not hungry, sometimes it was difficult to find a free table, and the choice of dishes is rather modest. If you look at the price of the tour, it probably matches. There are not enough fruits and cakes-pies were not impressed at all, except for national sweets, they were delicious.
The hotel can be recommended, but understand that there are minor flaws and without them you can’t go anywhere.
