This hotel is the furthest north of Hurghada. Further wastelands, unfinished and El Gouna is already beginning. Rooms in this hotel are both hotel and private. I came here because there is a good Russian kite station nearby and I lived for a month. It cost 350 euros to rent a one-room apartment with a kitchen for a month. Bought at the nearest BestWay. I had a chance to visit the hotel restaurant a couple of times (you can buy All Inc through the reception for 1500 rubles per day). Needless to say, the food in the restaurant is poor. I have been to quite a lot of different Egyptian hotels and here, I would say that it is worse than it was in others. Naturally, there is no children's menu. But the products that are sold in Egyptian stores are quite good and inexpensive if locally produced. There are also imported ones, such as French and Swiss cheeses, Italian coffee, etc. , but their prices are European. In general, if you want delicious food - cook yourself or go to Hurghada or El Gouna.
Of the alcoholic beverages that are included, you can only drink beer. There is better alcohol, but for the money. You can also buy local alcohol in bottles of acceptable quality on your own in specialized stores (there are 2 in El Gouna) or even order with delivery. But if you love good wine, then you can’t buy it for any money)
Many people come with children. For them, there is a children's club on the territory in which a girl from Ukraine works, there are swings, carousels, a couple of children's pools, a children's water park, and children's animation in the evening. True, the equipment that voices all this is simply disgusting. Even the food in the restaurant doesn't sound as disgusting as the sound quality coming out of those speakers.

The sea near the hotel is shallow, the bottom is rocky with sand, there are no corals.
Of the advantages of the hotel compared to others, I would note ...except perhaps the proximity to the kite station.
Otherwise - everything is very mediocre and everything that is written in other reviews is mostly true.
By the way, there is a SPA on the territory of the hotel. It is quite possible to visit, but bargain. The minimum price they agree to is $20. It includes a massage for 45 minutes and a sauna with a hammam and a swimming pool - quite normal for the money.
There is also a bar with freshly squeezed juices - also worth taking, but not for $ 2 per glass as they offer. The normal price for which they are willing to sell is $ 1. Usually they say pay immediately for 10, then it will be a dollar. Do not agree - most likely deceived. Pay as a matter of fact.
If you have not been to Egypt, then keep in mind that they will try to swindle you for money at every step, starting from the airport. Beware of taxi drivers who offer to bring "inexpensive". Use Uber-Egypt or InDriver. Try to have small bills with you - they don't like to give change.
On arrival, be sure to buy a SIM card from a local operator, because.
Internet in the hotel is both expensive and bad. Best accepted by Vodafone, but it can suddenly just stop working. More reliable - WE. And by the way, with Gigabytes you will also be deceived - there will be 2 times less real ones than they advertise))))
