The hotel was chosen with my husband based on reviews and videos, we wanted it in Makadi, since we had not been in this area yet, and many praised the sandy beaches and reefs. They settled us quickly, despite the early arrival, they gave us a small room overlooking the main pool. The air conditioning worked fine, the bed was comfortable, the plumbing did not make much noise, in general, you can live. Now the most important thing, the sea and the beach. The beach is sandy, there are a lot of places, but sunbeds in the best places must be taken in advance. The entrance is convenient, the depth is added smoothly, corals can be seen sailing away, but to be honest, there is no particular beauty, last year we were in Marsa Alam and such reefs, as we saw there, are not found anywhere else in Egypt. But whoever is the first time will not be disappointed, there are many different fish under water, of course, the most interesting ones should be looked for early in the morning, but in general there is something to see. We were in Egypt for the first time in the summer and I was worried that it would be too hot and the water could be very warm, but now I can say for sure that my fears were unfounded. The water is at a very comfortable temperature, even refreshing in the morning. . The heat is easier to bear than in Turkey, for example, there is no such humidity, but still I advise you to stock up on creams and it’s better not to show yourself in the sun from one to four, and this is just the time for lunch and afternoon rest, so there are no problems at all. We have no complaints about food. Nobody will be hungry here, there is always a choice, I will not describe the menu, but I will only say that we had enough meat, the first one is possible, I really liked how they cook rice and did not like how they cook potatoes, in the morning baking for me was much tastier than in the evening cakes. No local alcohol as usual, beer tastes good when cold. We went a couple of times in the evening to the animation, the children's seemed to me more fun than for adults, but it all depends on the activity of the vacationers themselves. It’s a long way to go to the city, and we didn’t have anything to do, we bought a local SIM card at the airport, it’s much more convenient. We once went on a desert safari almost at night when it was not hot and went to the island of Utopia, where we got great photos. Vacationers were different, Russian-speaking and Arabs are, where without them. We went to the slides once, just to see, the children there, of course, expanse. So we generally liked the rest, they didn’t pay attention to minor flaws, I advise everyone to the hotel.
