Just returned from this hotel 3 days ago. I'll start from the end. $ 733 HB for 9 nights for two fully justified the purchase of the tour, which is good news. and now from the beginning.

We arrived without delay, the luggage, oddly enough, did not disappear, was taken out 15-20 minutes after landing, and the handles in the suitcases were in place. The TEZs stood at intervals of every 3 meters and soon we were on our way to the hotel. But the evening party near the reception of the hotel delayed our accommodation for more than 30 minutes. The donated traditional ten bucks did its job and we still got a room with a balcony on the 2nd floor with a wonderful view of the pool in the courtyard. Confused only incomprehensible door to "somewhere" in our room. As it turned out, these are former 2-room suites. We decided not to change it yet, especially since there were no extra sounds from there ...

Restaurant. Yes...

Problem 1 was to find it in general in a million transitions and courtyards. Everything seemed to be ok with my orientation (I thought so), but for another 3 days I didn’t turn everything in the right direction, but once elementary got lost on the territory, hmm, it doesn’t happen to anyone. . . Entrance to the restaurant through the terrace, grilled dishes were also prepared there. I have already been several times in Egypt and also in 4 * hotels, so there is something to compare with - the average Egyptian selection of dishes, 1-2 types of fruits, except for fruit salad for breakfast, delicious pastries, meat for an amateur, fish one once tasty - once not very much and for some reason for breakfast for cheese you have to go to the kid who cuts it ....Here I didn’t understand the joke ....traditional yupi instead of juice ....we decided not to save on health and for ourselves, we took fresh juices - 10 pounds or a fresh cocktail - 15 pounds, it was delicious ...
Although when you simply didn’t feel like juice, the waiter who carried them almost by force tried to trick them into us and left with a very offended look when he didn’t succeed ...There was a joke with drinks for dinner. Then I noticed that not only we lost our vigilance. HB - drinks for dinner are paid extra. I was misled by free access to tea-coffee-water during dinner and mentally I thought "how cool! not like in other 4 *! " When on the 6th day the waiter bloated that not everyone has bracelets and made a run with bills for drinks in the halls of the restaurant, many aunts loudly resented the high cost in Egypt. In short, you won’t stay hungry, and if you don’t take “suspicious” cuts, don’t

Beach. Personally, we basically walked, it took no more than 15 minutes. Half of the way - through a wasteland, the second half - through the territory of Dana Beach.
Basses traveled regularly, although on the first day in the morning there were so many people that I immediately remembered the still not forgotten city minibus ...there was not enough space, of course. We came, we looked around, we can live. There were always enough sun loungers, but wind dampers (very convenient! ) Not always. As always, the "pushers" KaSYchek, henna tattoos, Banana ostraf and pharaonic massage, as well as numerous especially violent AI-holidays, strained. Having walked to the pier, we saw the sign "RUHE ZONE" (quiet zone) almost empty, cheers!! ! Let's go there. There is peace and quiet there - enjoy! Yep, it wasn't there. Probably not very sober Slavs came and, apparently, it was considered a special chic to take pictures of their bare bottoms on sunbeds in Egypt. Original and disgusting. It’s a pity they weren’t taken to the Egyptian section to pose ...The Germans left immediately ....

Water. Cold ...I can’t say anything more ...I managed to splash only in the hotel pool, 1 was still heated, albeit small ...

That's what came off, so it's on the fruit just on the way to the beach near the bar "kalamari" found a fruit tent. We tried all the exotic fruits and thoroughly refueled with strawberries (5 pounds of trays) and mangoes. Yummy! The name of the owner of the tent is Ahmet - a wonderful guy. He always named an adequate price, at the request he chose ripe or not very (for transportation) fruits, and even drink delicious real Arabic coffee. He is a big hello and thank you.

City. You can easily get to the city center by minibus for 2 pounds. It is advisable to agree on a price immediately. Although when they gave a banknote of 5 pounds, change, of course, no one gave Che to negotiate ?!
They noted such a positive moment for themselves: they didn’t drag them into the shops as actively as in Sharm at the bazaar, and they didn’t shout “friend! how are you! zahady pasmatry” ....it’s already easier!

In short, if you didn’t manage to relax in the summer and want exotic things, you can go.
There will be no terribly negative emotions if you don’t get them yourself, but you can show off a natural African tan against the general background
