In mid-April, my friends and I went to this hotel. We arrived at the hotel by one in the afternoon, it turned out that for three people we were provided with a double room with a folding bed, of course, no one wanted to sleep on a folding bed, the surcharge for a family room was 8 euros per day. I’ll make a reservation right away that it’s not the hotel’s puncture, but our travel agent, all three paid the same amount, in full, and in the order for the hotel came, a double room with a folding bed. In general, the receptionist looked at our thoughts, and asked what you want, they said that we want a room with three beds. In general, we went to a meeting, and we did not pay extra. They put us in a room next to the reception. Right above the Wi-Fi room and the main restaurant.
Now about the number.
The room is large, spacious, three beds, one king size, and two one and a half. Everything worked in the room, a safe in the room, a TV with several Russian channels, there was a hairdryer, unfortunately it didn’t work or not. The bathroom had soap and shampoo dispensers. Bed linen was changed every day, towels too. Cleaned every day, it was always clean and smelled delicious freshener. The only negative of the room is the balcony on the roof of the restaurant, right under the balcony, there was an extract from the restaurant. During the day, at different times, she began to work loudly and from the balcony she strongly pulled food, and not aromas, but such an active, unpleasant smell of everything being roasted. But the closed balcony actively saved from this scourge. Since the weather was cool, it was not hot with the balcony closed. On the one hand, the room overlooked the roof of the restaurant with a balcony, a large terrace was obtained, and the sea was visible. From the side of the entrance, a corridor overlooked a desert area, which was often ridden on horseback. The sea and the neighboring hotel were visible, in the evening there was a view of the sunset in the desert, and at night, a great view of the night Hurghada. Once, the safe stopped working, we went to the reception, a pleasant and smiling receptionist quickly resolved the issue, asked to be in the room by a certain time. At the appointed time, two officers and the hotel manager came to us, they opened the safe in front of us, fixed the damage and left. Everything took no more than 10 minutes. The room also had a central air conditioner. Due to the strong winds, it was enough to open the doors on the latch and the wind walked around the room. The territory of the hotel is huge, beautiful, all in flowers and greenery. Five pools, all have not mastered to try out), one pool is heated. Rocking benches, near one of the pools, won the hearts of many.

Now, as for food.
There are two main restaurants on the territory, working on the Allinc. system, the main restaurant, near the reception and Bay Watch, a restaurant on the beach, with chic large windows overlooking the sea. At different times, in different restaurants, there were different numbers of people. If you prefer to eat in silence, then for lunch it is better to go to the main restaurant Mona Lisa, and a quieter dinner will be on the seashore. On the beach itself and near the main pool there are bars that also serve snacks and ice cream, sometimes there were french fries, well, juices, water, tea until sunset. Food, tasty, satisfying, during the week, the menu didn’t change much, but everything was delicious. And the tomatoes and feta cheese are simply divine) My partners were crazy about guava and oranges, the melon also pleased.
On the territory of the hotel, there are also a la carte restaurants, an oriental restaurant, Italian, Indian and two more, I don’t remember which direction. We visited, only Italian on the territory of Fun City, restaurants are booked from 9-30 to 1.00 (in my opinion) and we simply forgot to sign up.
The beaches are always clean, there are always places too. Shell rock with sand. The only negative and the beach and pools, is the number of selling excursions and services. Sometimes even 10 minutes, without someone coming up, it was impossible to lie down.

There is also a diving center on site. Amphitheater for the evening show. Beauty salon, pharmacy, ATM, shops near the central pool and behind the reception. For children, animation and x-box, there was also billiards and table tennis, volleyball on the beach. We visited the beauty salon once, immediately upon arrival. I didn’t really like the hammam, there was no extractor hood, the coffee scrub was not bad, the chocolate mask got a little sloppy) apparently they don’t have normal chocolate, in Kyiv, I did a much tastier chocolate massage) The massage was very cool, relaxing, and finally the Jacuzzi, also pleased. It cost 65 ye per one, it came out in time, about an hour.
In the lobby, birds, parrots and, in my opinion, lovebirds live. They tweet so cool all day) There is also, something like, a lounge area with Wi-Fi. Wi-Fi is certainly not so hot, best of all, he caught in the morning and after 12 at night, but he still was. Near the main restaurant, a lounge area with hookahs, the price was not specified, so I will not say anything on this issue.
From the hotel, you can get to the neighboring hotel Serenity Fun City. It has a water park and a Luna Park. The water park, in my opinion, cost 16 bucks for half a day. On the sea, the guests of this hotel go through our hotel. On the territory of their hotel, there are several pools, through which bridges are thrown. How many times have not been there, it is always deserted. The hotel, in its style, is more modern, while Makadi Heights is more Moroccan, or something.
As for the sea, entry into the sea from a pontoon, right next to the shore is a reef, you won’t go far along it, there is maximum water up to your knees, and they don’t allow you to walk on it especially. Near the reef, depending on the weather, there were a lot of fish.
Well, that seems to be all I can tell you about the hotel and the trip. In general, the impressions were very positive.
