Мой лучший отдых! My best holiday!

Hello, my name is Anna. We rested at the Sea Star Beau Rivage Hotel from July 5 to 15.2010, four of us with my husband and with friends. Before that, they had already been in Hurghada, in 4k. We all really liked the hotel, I'll start in order.
Territory: Very green, a lot of date palms, ficuses, flowering trees, and a bunch of other exotic beautiful flowers and plants whose names I don’t know. Clean, beautiful in the evening, everything is illuminated: palm trees, pools. On the territory of 2 pools. The entire territory of the hotel is not large, which, in my opinion, is definitely a plus, you don’t have to spend a lot of time to get to the restaurant and to the beach, everything is compact, everything is nearby. Many in the reviews write that there is a construction site nearby, even photos are posted with garbage on the streets, I want to say: make no mistake, Egypt, in principle, is not clean, so no matter which hotel you choose, there will be heaps of garbage scattered outside it, inside the hotel is completely different world.
Beach: Large, divided by a pier into 2 halves. Right side: very suitable for people who are afraid to step on something, there is white sand and no stones, hedgehogs and other living creatures, ideal for families with children. Left side: this is the place for those who come to enjoy the beauty of the underwater world of the Red Sea. You need to go to the end of the pier, the one to the left of the entire beach (borders on the standing hotel on the left), put on a mask, snorkel, slippers or flippers and swim to the left behind the pier, coral reefs begin there, and the fish that I saw there, I have not seen on any sea excursion. If you look at a photo of the hotel from a satellite, you can see the coastline and the reefs nearby. For those who travel to Egypt just for this, I advise you to buy a box for a camera for underwater shooting, believe me, you will not regret it !!!

There is sand on the beach, both parts of the beach are equipped with umbrellas and sunbeds, so there are a lot of them, it was even that they came after dinner and the sunbeds were free (probably depends on the season). There are also many pools.
Recreation areas:
A large terrace on the first floor of the hotel, there are tables and soft chairs and sofas, overlooking the pool and the entire park, there are also tables at the bar between the pools, there is a stage and animators entertain people in the evening.
Animation: I can't rate the work of animation, because it’s not mine, we didn’t watch performances, but every day in the first half of the day I watched how people were entertained with hydro aerobics classes or taught salsa to dance, a decent crowd of all nationalities participated in this, it was clear that they liked it. And in the afternoon there were entertaining games, squash on the beach or water polo in the pool, etc. In the evening after sunset, there was a big performance on the stage near the bar.

Restaurant: The main restaurant: impressive in size, there was no such thing that someone would come and they would not find a table, in the restaurant, in addition to the waiters, who very quickly collect dirty dishes and deliver drinks, as I understand it, the managers work, if you have any the problem, it will be solved immediately. Once I took 3 glasses of drinks at the bar, well, I carry them in two hands, the manager saw, immediately ran up, took the glasses from me, called the waiter, put the glasses on his tray and told him to follow me, although I myself could to convey them. In the restaurant, between the tables with food, there is a counter where chefs work all the time, they cook all sorts of delicious things, scrambled eggs for breakfast, pancakes, pasta for lunch or something else (it’s not always clear what you eat, but very tasty). As for the buffet itself, the choice is grandiose, I won’t say that everything was different every day, there were always 2 types of side dishes, potatoes are almost always different, stewed vegetables. Meat, fish has always been, and almost always cooked in different ways. Vegetables, plus a table with salads. Baking is certainly out of competition, always a lot and very tasty. At the expense of fruit, breakfast - lunch is always bananas, dates, oranges, for dinner, watermelons and grapes are also included. Desserts, which are not only there, and mousses and cakes and pies, once there was a very tasty thing: nuts with fruits in chocolate. Traditional coffee tea. The hotel also has an Italian restaurant, 1 time per arrival you can dine for free, which we did - nothing special. We didn’t go to the fish restaurant, but we know that for $ 20 you can dine there with lobster, crabs and all sorts of sea delicacies.
Rooms: We were given 2 rooms nearby (702-704), it turned out to be a suite. The photo of the hotel shows that there are only 2 on each side, closer to the beach from the main building. On the 2nd floor, all windows overlook the sea and the park, very beautiful, plus the beach is within easy reach. The room has everything that is written in the description of the hotel, everything worked.
Service: I want to say right away, unlike the previous hotel, they don’t ask for a tip, give it - okay, don’t give it - your right. The room was cleaned daily, towels and sheets were also changed every three days. Once we had a broken tank in the bathroom, the breakdown was fixed within an hour. We have no complaints about the service, we liked everything.
As a result, I can write that the rest in Egypt was 100% successful and the hotel only contributed to this!
