I hope that my review will be useful, as I write it absolutely impartially.
So, this hotel was chosen by chance, as I decided to go two days before departure and only Turtesse had seats on the flights, and, accordingly, the choice of the hotel was negligible. Choose the best from the worst. The main criterion was - the presence of surfing.
1. Settlements. We had bought a room in the "Dune". For $50 we were moved to Laguna. I can say that you settle either in the main building or in the Laguna. Laguna is even better. These are separate villas, almost all are close to the sea. There is a safe in the room, ask for it immediately upon check-in. As soon as we arrived in the evening we were seated immediately.

2. Number. Huge room, with a large bed and an extra bed (which was not needed), everything, as always. The air conditioning worked perfectly, a large terrace, the daily filling of the refrigerator with water. Bathroom - well, this... on "3". Cleaned up quite normally, regardless of the presence of the dollar. The balcony door didn't close, but it was absolutely fearless. Valuables were kept in a conspicuous place in the room - nothing disappeared.
3. Territory. very large, quite green area. Yes, in the evening it gets low due to fertilizers, very large pool. Including from the Health Club, a good gym. By itself, the health club is also "3", this is not Turkey. The truth is worth every penny.
4. Restaurants. Really small main restaurant for so many people. Everyone is running, at the beginning it is impossible to take a place, so I recommend coming to the second half. The choice of food is very poor. And it's true, I'm not exaggerating, and I'm not nitpicking. There are no salads at all (I'm talking about normal salads), there were no fruits. But the food quality is ok. Alcohol is the same everywhere. The food on the beach is quite normal, in general there is a choice where to drink (in the afternoon and in the evening). What surprised me was the breakfasts, they were very good.
5. Animation. I hardly saw her, and was only once. Nothing to say.
6. Sea. Pts good entry for children, small, Pts little fish, as for the Red Sea (sharm can not even be compared). Good corals near the buoys. And och it is bad that there is no pantone. Initially, it seems that the beach line is large, but as a result, the entrance to the sea is very narrow, a lot of people swim in the water. Well, as always, people manage to take sunbeds in their sleep : -) We had enough, but by the end of the rest there were more people and there were fewer and fewer sunbeds.
7. Contingent. I was very pleased that there were very few Russians. There were a lot of Poles, Czechs, Serbs, Germans.
8. Staff. Well. . . this is not the Intercontinental : ) and that says it all, but nothing mega scary. The constant approaches of EVERYONE on the beach got really tired! Health club, Pigtails, Fish, Safari, etc. It was impossible. And somehow this time everyone is trying to deceive you. . .

9. City. Departure to the city or by shuttle bus (20 dollars for two in two directions, to the old city - there is nothing to do there, from there you can get to the new city for a couple of dollars. ). We went by taxi - $ 36 two ways, and 2.5 hours of downtime. I recommend going to a fish restaurant - Star Fish or Fish Star. For $30 you will be very full for two!
10. Internet. There is no wifi. You can sit in an Internet cafe, or if you have a laptop, then take a USB modem for a day - $ 9 per day, BUT! It's only 10 MB! The next 5 mb - $ 1. In general, we downloaded the mail (without pictures, without attachments) and we had 50 mb. In general, fool TERRIBLY!
11. Water park. Great water park. A lot of good slides for both adults and children. Despite the fact that Pts was pleasantly surprised, this is the presence of bedding for slides (so that you don’t feel the joints) and Pts friendly staff! There is also a bar, loungers, everything you need : )
12. Water sports. I was engaged in winderfing, quite good instructors. But they need to be constantly pushed and you can choose other schools along the coastline.
Overall, the hotel was better than I expected.
