Впечатления неоднозначные Impressions are ambiguous

Impressions are quite ambiguous. I must say right away that we were in November and were not very lucky with the weather, I even tried to rain) It was warm from 10 to 3 o'clock, in the evening there is always a jacket. And mosquitoes! This is a different story: small, silent and biting. After the first night bitten were just a nightmare. Take protective equipment with you, because at the pharmacy the spray costs 8 dollars, the fumigator 10. I will try to write the rest in order
1. Sea. It is practically non-existent. That is, it is good for families with small children, 500 meters from the beach is shallow, for an adult in the middle of the lower leg. But the bottom itself is not so hot: small corals, a little further away the sea is still shallow, the corals are already large, barefoot is not very pleasant. Deeper entry from the pontoon, there are two options. Someone is constantly hanging on the stairs: either they haven’t decided to enter the sea yet, or they can’t get out. In short, pontoons are not my passion) There is no reef as such, there is only a dead parody of it, so do not load your suitcase with masks, they will obviously be superfluous here. In general, the sea does not please
2. Territory. Big, beautiful and well maintained. At night, there are lights everywhere, lanterns are on, big balls are all over the place. Constantly something is being painted, repaired, rowed, trimmed. There are no questions here

3. Pools. There are a lot of them, about 5, I didn’t count exactly, but they are icy! The heating was turned on only once per week of stay
4. Nutrition. There is a lot of food, but it is always the same, variety does not please For breakfast for scrambled eggs, get ready to stand for 20-30 minutes, and this is at best. There are very few vegetables, chopped tomatoes, cucumbers, cabbage quickly ends. Fruits also do not please with variety: every day green melon, oranges and dates in different variations, a couple of times there was guava, sometimes pomegranate. There are three a la carte restaurants. Were in two: Chinese and fish. Chinese offers two dishes to choose from, there is not even a fish menu, what they bring is what you eat (dumb soup, rice and two small dry fish). Queues to restaurants like on the last day. Although for my taste, the food in the daily restaurant is much better.
5. Staff. To be honest, I was surprised. This has not yet seen, although not the first time in Egypt. Everyone is gloomy, dissatisfied, no one smiles, they answer your greeting every other time. As if not in Egypt)
6. Cleaning. Every day they left a dollar, but for the last two days they didn’t even make the simplest swans out of towels. The only thing was that I put 3 bottles of water instead of 2. I just made the bed and folded the towels
7. Animation. animators can most often be found in the dining room) entertainment is standard and focused on the beach: volleyball, yoga, darts, aqua aerobics, in the evening at 21.00 for half an hour a children's disco and an hour program for adults. There are 5 animators, but they are somehow imperceptible
8. Number. The rooms are large, we had a standard one, two beds, a separate area with a sofa and a TV, a standard balcony.
The location is bad, from Hurghada by taxi 8-10 dollars. Near the hotel there are some shops and a pharmacy, but the prices are very high, no one wants to bargain, they say frankly: to go to Hurghada, but we are there. For comparison, a snorkeling mask in a hotel is 16-20 dollars, in the city they bought for 12, kalamil in a local pharmacy 3, in the city 1 dollar

Conclusion: if you are looking for a relaxing holiday near the sea or the pool, in the evening a walk and an early sleep, then this hotel is for you. Although if you go with your big company - it's also suitable.
