We stumbled upon this hotel by accident and we are very happy with it. So, I'll start in order.

We were taken from the airport to the hotel in 10 minutes, Al dau beach was the first in the chain of hotels where tourists were transported, and in general, since the hotel is located close to the airport, it will be very comfortable to get to with small children after the flight (albeit a short one) . In general, I liked the location of the hotel, away from the main streets with endless shops, and if you need something, the Cleopatra Bazaar helped out. The check-in to the room was even faster, without any baksheesh we were settled in a room with a sea view (in general, 90% of the rooms have a sea view)).

Room: we ordered the cheapest accommodation option, we were settled in a room of 50 square meters. m. , on the second floor. Cleaning is daily, also replenished and updated daily: water, towels, tea, coffee, sugar (there is a kettle in the room).

On the second day, our safe broke, but within 15 minutes it was repaired without any problems. In my opinion, there are only two drawbacks to the room (ours was 1242): 1. the door to the room faces the street, and the soundproofing is weak, in addition, there is an orgomic gap under the door, so the draft was terrible (but we just plugged the gap with towels), 2: very weak water pressure in the shower, well, just barely ...As you can see, the flaws are insignificant and it is quite possible to live with them.

Meals: Breakfasts are very varied, I personally eat oatmeal in the morning, but there is more than enough choice: freshly squeezed juices, delicious pastries, several types of muesli, fruits, sausages, salads, a bunch of yogurts, scrambled eggs, everything is fresh and tasty. Dinners are also varied, while there was always meat and fish, and what is important for me - soups of several types (there was even a brosch).
Every, absolutely every evening, a new menu for dinner (Arabic cuisine, Japanese (here is their sushi " FU" ), Mediterranean with seafood, Italian evening, etc. ).

About a la carte: Tanga has very sincere waiters, delicious food, but to be honest, we didn’t want to go there the second time, because the food was almost the same in the main restaurant. But we were in Alexandra twice and would go there again, because everything is very tasty there.

The territory of the hotel is large, which in my opinion is good with such hearty lunches and dinners, because there is where to shake the fat. A couple of minutes walk to the sea, but they also seem to carry golf carts. The beach is clean and well maintained, since we were not quite in the season, there were enough sunbeds for everyone. It was cold and we could not swim in the pools, except for the heated ones, but in the season there will be enough places for everyone next to the lazy river. On the territory of the hotel you can also borrow bicycles for free, play golf and go to a nearby hotel for tennis.
Service: We had lunch and dinner on the street, we had one waiter who somehow got attached to us, in general, the guys are great - they don’t pick their noses, they do everything quickly and well. Very caring, even without a tip, but we left every time, because the boys really try and do everything well.


Since we flew from Coral travel, we turned to the Odeon guide for help the first days, and so the Melad guide is just a quiet horror, namely: an extortionist (almost blackmails for excursions) and is not competent in matters of hotel services. It was completely replaced by the girls on the guest relation Oksana and Zhenya, who would like to express their deepest gratitude and wish as many adequate tourists as possible.
