Before the trip, I read a lot of negative reviews about this hotel, saying that the food is terrible, the service is disgusting, there is no animation, etc.... but since the ticket had already been bought, I went there but with caution.
Territory: very large, beautiful, green, many artificial rivers, waterfalls, it is multi-level. So you go to the sea from the hill, and go up towards the main restaurant and the reception, but it didn’t bother me, although it caused inconvenience to many tourists.
Beach: quite large, there were no problems with places under umbrellas. Very beautiful coral reef which is comparable to the reefs of Sharma, the entrance is by pontoon. The reef starts from the very shore, there is no sandy entrance, so it is not suitable for those traveling with small children.

Swimming pools: there are 6-7 of them on the territory of the hotel, I can’t say for sure because one smoothly flows into the other. There is one small heated pool (fresh). Two swimming pools with sea water. There were no problems with the beds either, although during our stay there the hotel was almost completely occupied.
For children: We went without children, but we saw that there is a children's club, a girl from Georgia works there, so she burns well in Russian. Children were practically not seen during the day, they were in the children's club all day, and in the evening at dinner they were gathered by animators at a mini-disco.
Animation: beach volleyball, aqua aerobics, belly dance, darts, water polo, etc. from 10.00. Almost all of them speak Russian tolerably well. Shows were put on every evening. The hotel also has a disco bar with a dance floor, so after 22.30 the animators "started" the people there.
Food: Special thanks to the cooks, they fed very tasty and varied, every day something new and tasty. With the exception of breakfast, everything is standard from day to day, although it is also delicious. The only negative is that there are such "peak hours" in the restaurant when you can come and not find a place for yourself right away, although I think this depends on the occupancy of the hotel.
Room: Standard room, nothing special, just like in other Egyptian fives. It can be noted only the presence of a kettle, coffee, tea, sugar, cream in the room.
Service: on the level, no complaints, although many tourists complained that they were treated badly, that if there was a German and a Russian near the bar, then the German would be served first... We did not notice this...
Contingent: the hotel has a lot of Germans and Austrians (they even have an additional animation team working there), Russians, a few French and Italians
In general, there was an opinion about this wonderful hotel... Finally, let me say this, if you look for a negative and you will find it (whoever looks for it will always find it) and if you go with a positive, then the minor flaws that every hotel has (it is impossible for everyone to be good ), irreplaceable and will not be able to spoil the rest
