We visited a beach holiday in Egypt for the first time this year. Before booking a vacation, I studied many reviews of various hotels and the choice fell on Sentido Mamlouk. And not in vain. The hotel is really good. Very beautiful interior of the reception building in the Arab-Byzantine style, residential buildings are made in the same style. Pleasant unobtrusive staff, which is also very important for a comfortable stay. According to the reviews of other hotels on the websites and from the tourists we met on the tour, in other hotels the staff constantly asked for tips for their services, on the beach tourists are bothered by offering all kinds of services.
In Sentido Mamlouk, all employees are busy with their work, no one imposes anything. All of the employees are very welcoming and friendly. On the beach, if they approached us, it was very rare, and if they saw that we did not show interest in the services offered, then they immediately left, no one imposed anything or bothered us.
You can also ask for a red flag at the towel counter and pick it up under the umbrella. This is a sign to the sales staff that you don't want to be disturbed on the beach.

The room was cleaned very well. If you leave a couple of dollars in tips, then leave even more shampoos, shower gels, etc. after cleaning. 2 sealed bottles of drinking water are left in the room every day.

The food at the hotel is very tasty and varied. The main restaurant has several "sections": grilled dishes, baked dishes, stews, spaghetti, all kinds of salads, fruits, sweets. Grilled seafood was also quite common for dinner.
The only thing that is of terrible quality in Egypt is alcohol. Alcohol in all hotels is poured local. Although there were many tourists who drank in bars all day long and nothing bothered them.
But personally, we didn’t like beer, wine, or cocktails, precisely because of the quality of alcohol.
Therefore, we drank mostly tonic, or you can also ask the bartenders for a non-alcoholic cocktail.
The hotel has 4-5 free a la carte restaurants. It is necessary to make a reservation at a restaurant through a special portal a day in advance. We went to Arabic, Mexican and Spanish. To be honest, in general, it doesn’t differ much from the main restaurant (dining room), only in a la carte you had to wait a long time until the table was served and drinks and dishes were brought. Therefore, it is even better in the main restaurant, because you can quickly take what you want for dinner and do not have to wait for the waiter for 20-30 minutes.

The beach is sandy, very comfortable entry into the sea. On the right side, if you face the sea, there is a pier. Near the pier there are coral reefs. Went there to snorkel. There are a lot of fish near the pier.

We were satisfied with the rest and the chosen hotel.
