Good day! I’ll clarify right away - I’m abroad (and in Egypt in particular) for the first time. Now about the hotel… Let's start with the good. Of the obvious advantages - a large and well-groomed territory. However, it is almost impossible to get lost. All paths lead either to the central “highway” (a relatively wide path along which electric cars run) or to the hotel fence. Many flowering shrubs and small trees, which is very pleasing to the eye. Another plus is a good animation team. Every evening - impromptu performances (Mr. and Mrs. hotel, Arabic show, comedy show, etc. ). Separate animator for kids. A good beach entertainment program (darts, aqua aerobics, beach volleyball, dance lessons) is very primitive, but at the same time cheerful and fun. In general, the animators here do not eat their bread in vain (hello Marina and Anya : -)! Rooms are cleaned approximately once a day. Because I myself am a neat person,
then I did not notice a striking change in the room after cleaning. However, there is one unpleasant moment! Drinking water is not delivered to the room. This is officially announced at the entrance at the entrance to the hotel. Although, in the official brochure of the hotel it is stated - 1 bottle. drinking water per day in every room. You need to collect water yourself in the coolers, which are located in each of the 4 bars of the hotel. Empty water bottles - ask here. ATTENTION! Local bartenders practice such a joke - an empty bottle is taken out of the trash can. I hope you do not need to explain how to act in such situations? Therefore, we carefully look at where the empty bottle given to you comes from or use our own containers (bottle, canister, bucket). In general, the staff is quite polite and smiling. Having learned a couple of greetings in Arabic, I almost always saw friendly smiles on the faces of the local population and hotel staff. Meals take place in the main restaurant.
Although, as it was very accurately noted here, this is rather a large canteen : -) This feeling is exacerbated by spontaneous queues. The presence of "black sheep" in such queues creates unnecessary nervousness and tension. By black sheep, I mean people who chronically cannot wait their turn and climb across everyone and everything. If we talk about food, then everything is quite edible and sometimes tasty. However, the almost complete absence of fruit is frustrating. Almost, since they (fruits) still appeared, but not every day and not very fresh. But, since I do not consider myself a fan of such events, this did not cause me any inconvenience. A fairly large (in my inexperienced opinion) selection of pastries. The only time I needed Immodium (MUST take it with you, it’s better to have it in your bag all the way than not to be at the right moment),

when I tried to taste a PAID seafood dinner at Prince Omar restaurant. However, it may have been an individual reaction of my stomach. It is also worth noting the poor organization of accommodation for newly arrived tourists. Passports must be left at the check-in desk until the morning (all arrivals from Russia take place from 22-00 to 23-00). Apparently, under the cover of night, the hotel staff perform magical rituals and sacrifices on them : -) Bags and suitcases are carried by the hotel employee after you. However, if the race is large, then he delivers you and bags on an electric car. If you don't like the room, stomp back to the reception desk yourself (if you remember the way : -). A couple of times I saw a picture from the pioneer camps at all - a flock of brand new tourists with pillows in their hands stomped to check into the room. Although, there is a small chance that they flew in from Russia : -)
Summarizing all of the above - this hotel visited the first and last time.
Despite the listed disadvantages, I am satisfied with the rest and do not regret the money spent.
