The hotel is great!! ! Just an oriental fairy tale!! ! All 5 stars. But. . . let's not rush, everything is in order. We arrived at 10 o'clock. morning. We were immediately put on bracelets and sent to breakfast. After breakfast, we immediately settled in room 523. The room is clean, the furniture is not new, but very up to date. In the room: TV, air conditioning, hairdryer, safe, refrigerator. We had two single beds. The balcony is huge overlooking the main street. The room was cleaned every day, bottles of water were put in the refrigerator every day, water could also be taken in any bar, restaurant freely in any quantity. The hotel area is very large, beautiful, everything is done in oriental style, a lot of greenery. The territory is guarded, strangers are not allowed in, at night there are guards even on the floors. A local guy from the excursion brought us disks with pictures, so he was not allowed into the territory, he stood waiting at the entrance. The food is very well organized, the choice of dishes is chic. There are five restaurants on the territory, of which two are open for breakfast, one for lunch, and all for dinner. . You can sit and eat both in the restaurant itself and on the street, you can take a plate and go to all the restaurants, pick up everything you want and sit on the street, you can eat in one restaurant, then go to another. No pre-registration is needed, you are allowed to bring your own alcohol, you are allowed to take fruit with you to your room. I once took a number with me, because we left for Luxor early in the morning so that we had something to have breakfast, they didn’t say anything, they silently took away empty plates while we were gone, and that’s all. They prepared a variety of dishes, every evening there was something new for dinner, once they fried lulakebab on the grill right on the street, another time kebabs, once they gave crabs, I’m not even talking about all the meat delights, and grilled chicken, and chops, and roast beef, and nuggets, and cutlets, and dolma, stuffed peppers and zucchini, in a Chinese restaurant I liked the duck in orange sauce, I really liked the fish, it is very tasty there, fresh, they ate boiled, and fried, and steamed, and in batter, For breakfast, the child really liked the pancakes, the fills were to choose from, we liked the most with chocolate and brown sugar, and croissants. Breakfast also included fresh juices. I really liked the pizza in the Italian restaurant, you come up, and he has a lot of different toppings in the bowls, you say what you want, they make it in front of you and send it to a large clay oven. They made pasta in the same way, and omelettes in the morning, you choose the ingredients yourself and they cook it all for you right away. Almost under our number there was an ice cream cafe, it worked from 12 to 18, you could always take as much ice cream as you wanted, at least a bucket (the only trouble was that after dinner so much didn’t fit). The ice cream was very tasty, I liked the chocolate sundae and mango sorbet the most. Bars also worked all day, near the pools and on the main street where our room was located. There were always drinks, packaged juices (fresh only for breakfast), alcoholic cocktails, wine, beer. I haven't tried the wine, but I liked the beer and cocktails. Everything is absolutely included, except for the hookah, you could order it for $20 at the hookah bar. Also very tasty coffee and a huge plus: a 24-hour lobby bar, where early in the morning, at 6 o’clock, when almost everyone is still sleeping, you can drink a cup of coffee, lounging on a soft sofa, check your mail, surf the Internet (our room was nearby, only to go down the stairs, and it's so convenient). Pools, if I'm not mistaken, nine. The central one is the largest, from our room the exit was directly to it through an arch, but the water in it was cool and since I was relaxing with a child, it was important for me that the pool was heated. We found two of these and swam in them all the time. In the children's pool water park, loved it. The slides are mostly for children, but there are two large ones, so parents are not bored either. There was also mini golf, but we never had time to play it. Two buses constantly ply on the sea, once they walked on foot, about ten minutes in a straight line. The water in the sea is quite warm, once when we went to a paradise island, the water there was just icy, but on the hotel beach, the water was always warm, you can swim without special shoes, the water is clean, the bottom is sandy. The beach also has a restaurant that is open only for lunch, and a bar that is open all day. There were always enough sun loungers and umbrellas and there were a lot of extra ones both on the beach and around the pools. I also want to note as a big plus, next to the hotel, there is a large supermarket, unfortunately, I opened it for myself only on the last day, I had to buy a film for winding my suitcase. So, what I'll tell you, in the supermarket the prices are the same as in the city, something is cheaper, something is a little more expensive, but in general the same, but how much I would save myself nerves if I went there on the first day. The same souvenirs, the same fruits, oriental sweets, even more choice than in Hurghada, spices, tea, coffee, scarves, figurines, magnets, loofah washcloths, essential oils, in general, the whole set that we usually bring from Egypt. The advantage is that everything is clean, you calmly walk in an air-conditioned room, slowly choose everything at fixed prices, no one grabs you by the hand, doesn’t shove any unnecessary rubbish into you. My advice, go there on the first day and buy everything you need, and then decide if you want to walk around the dirty Sharaton where they will take out your whole brain, suck in some garbage, and even deceive. By the way, there are also shops on the territory of the hotel, if you really want to bargain so much, then you can take your soul there. Animation is a separate issue, our hotel is 1001 nights, on the territory of the hotel there is a huge amphitheater where the show "1001 nights" is held three times a week, this show is free for hotel guests, we watched it twice, it started so-so, average statistically, but closer to the middle, it captured more and more, a very beautiful fire show, dervish dance, oriental dances, guys on horseback performed incredible tricks to the tune of Katyusha, the child really liked the clown with a donkey and at the end of the show of singing fountains. During the day on horses and camels, vacationers rode for free in this large arena. In those days when there was no show, dervishes, oriental dances, fire shows were performed right in front of vacationers having dinner in the courtyard. Also on the main street, right under our balcony, they performed rap dances on the first evening, there were also children's discos, various dance and music competitions, a Miss Hotel show, I'm not talking about plush dolls, aerobics in the morning, yoga, lessons oriental dances, etc. In general, we decided for ourselves that if we were going to Egypt again, then only to Leila, this hotel conquered us.
