Stayed as two families with teenagers...

Arrival. They settled us relatively quickly, they did not require an additional fee, they gave a good room, on the 5th floor with a huge balcony and a view of the water park. Everything is standard in the room - safe, mini bar, refrigerator, TV, hair dryer, well, all accessories in the bathroom - everything is available; a double bed, and for a teenage child there was a rollaway bed with a fairly comfortable mattress. We arrived at 21.30, but managed to have dinner and look around a bit. The first impression is not very, as for a good German hotel. We decided not to make hasty conclusions - the morning is wiser than the evening. The morning really dispelled gloomy thoughts, the hotel is beautiful, the territory, although small, looks pretty good, everything is compact and at the same time does not press.

Nutrition. We liked.

We got into full population, there were a lot of people, because of this there were small queues in the restaurant, but somehow it didn’t bother, there were always enough places, food was always served, the queues diverged quite quickly. It should be noted that there are a lot of places in the main restaurant. The food was delicious and we had enough variety. There were three types of fish, meat - chicken, duck, beef, seafood - shrimp, squid meat. There were always two types of soup for lunch and dinner. From fruits - melon, apples, oranges, plums, peaches, pears, dates, bananas, a couple of times there was guava. Delicious cheeses for breakfast. And just delicious treats! From alcohol - good wine (we drank red) and beer. Visited the a la carte restaurant on the roof - "Sky" - really liked it.

Animation: during the day - as standard: morning exercises, belly dancing, aqua aerobics, darts, and in the evenings - every evening - a new program. The guys are trying

Beach.
You have to walk for 7-8 minutes, there is a shuttle, but we did not use it, the road to the beach is quite beautiful, we enjoyed the walk. On the first day there were not enough sunbeds, we arrived too late due to a meeting with the guide. The problem was solved within 20 minutes - from the territory of the neighboring beach of the STEIGENBERGER AL DAU BEACH hotel they brought us sunbeds, though we had to walk around and ask, like we had a few more newcomers. The service staff communicates in German, speaks little Russian, a little better in English, thanks to our children - they helped out))) To resolve issues, you can contact guest relation Anna, she will help with the translation and voicing of your problem.

By the way, we had one incident - we forgot some things in the hotel, we contacted Anna by e-mail and she helped to resolve the issue of returning our things to our homeland))). Thank you so much for your help!! ! The beach is small and sandy.
The underwater world is scarce, it's not Charm, but by swimming deeper you can find several types of fish, stingrays, even moray eels came across))) I'm not an expert in snorkeling - that was enough for me. You can ride for free 30 minutes on a catamaran or kayak, there is still the opportunity to take a 30-minute short course in windsurfing and scuba diving - also for free. We tried it all

Not far from the hotel is Cleopatra - bazaar, the prices "do not bite", are fixed, we bought a full-face mask there (average price is $ 12), all sorts of souvenirs - trinkets))) and some medicines. They took us from the tour operator to the shopping center of Hurghada - Senzo Mall, the prices are about the same as in the local Cleopatra - Bazaar . . We took an excursion to Luxor - we liked it very much, although the road was very exhausting, but it's worth it.


Tips, as in any hotel, are welcome, but if you do not leave them, a disaster will not happen.
Cleaning in the room was the same - at least they left a tip, at least not. But in order for you to change towels and bedding in the room - you must tell about it, otherwise they will not change them for you! There are no bathrobes and slippers in the rooms, we did not need them, but some guests complained.

In general, I can say that I liked the rest. I recommend the hotel!
