Rested from 16.08. 2011 to 26.08. 2011 together. In general, I liked everything very much. We were seated quickly, within 15 minutes. But, we can say that we were lucky, because those who arrived earlier were waiting for the check-in, which starts at 14.00. 10 dollars put in the passport at the reception was returned back. Settled in a bungalow on the 3rd line. Before the trip, we read in the reviews that there are often interruptions in water supply on the 3rd line. But there was nothing of the sort. Air conditioning is also no problem. The safe is big enough to fit anything of value. A laptop is unlikely, but a netbook or PSP will definitely fit. Once there were problems with the safe - they called from the room to the reception. After 10 minutes, they sent a person and within 2 minutes everything was fixed (this is given that it only takes 5-7 minutes to walk from the main building). The view from the window is excellent, the sea is visible, especially beautiful in the evening. In general, the buildings are located very well, even on the 3rd line almost everywhere you can see the sea from the 2nd floor. They clean the room perfectly. The floor is washed throughout the room.
Nothing was ever lost, although it happened and the safe remained open. Pictures of flower petals and swans from towels were laid out on the bed. True, every time we left a dollar for tips, maybe because of this. The only negative is that as it starts to get dark, large ants appear in the bathroom. I don’t know how they crawl here, but it’s unpleasant.
Now about nutrition. 2 restaurants: Lotus and Aldente. Both have the same food. The difference is that Aldente has been recently refurbished, so the interior is better. That's actually all the differences. The food is quite varied, but the menu practically does not change from day to day. But on the other hand, after all, no one is going to eat there for a year, and in 10 days the menu almost does not have time to get bored. For 10 days, they didn’t get poisoned and there were no problems with the stomach. The only thing is that there are not enough fruits. We must pay tribute to the staff - they work very smoothly and quickly.

Empty dishes and tables are cleaned instantly, you just don’t have time to blink an eye. Some here write about dirty dishes and their shortage - personally, I have never seen any “queue for dishes”. The dishes are always clean and most often even hot. As for the queue at restaurants, who is to blame that most of them are rushing right to the opening, it is enough to come half an hour after the opening and there will be no line at all. Although even when it happens, it resolves quickly enough. There is also one restaurant on the second floor, but you can go there once for the whole holiday. Pre-registration at the reception. If you're lucky, sign up the next day. But it's best to book a few days in advance. By the way, in shorts, for example, they are not allowed there. It's strange...what a sane person would go to Egypt in trousers. (

The territory is large and quite green.
They often drive Clab car and if you wish, you can drive up to the reception or, conversely, to your house. As for the sea, the sea could be better. The beach seems to be normal, but the water is dirty. The entrance to the sea is long. It's a long walk to the depths. But this is also how you like it. Free sunbeds are always enough both on the beach and near the pools.
As for the attitude towards vacationers, the staff is friendly, everyone will say hello to you, 10 times at the bottom they will ask how you are doing. If you are a girl, you will constantly listen to how pretty you are. But especially no one is imposed. Is that the merchants, but they have such a job. When you deal with some problem, no one pretends that they don’t understand, and if they really don’t understand (which happens extremely rarely), then they call the one who understands.
Animation - I liked it. Every evening performances in the amphitheater, first for children, then for adults, and so on.
I also want to say about the sightseeing tour of Hurghada. The tour is commercial. You won't see anything particularly interesting. Everything is aimed at ensuring that tourists leave more money there. They promised that everything in the city is several times cheaper than in the hotel, but in the store, which was included in this tour, the prices are very high (apparently, designed for hype). Even in the hotel then saw things cheaper. In general, the cheapest souvenirs were bought by us at the Hurghada airport when flying home. And there is a huge selection.
Have a good rest.
