Hotel ratings by criteria:
We went from the Tez-tour, representatives of the company met us at the entrance to the airport and brought them to the bus like calves, which in principle was not bad, since we were driving for the first time. Check-in at the hotel took a maximum of 15 minutes. Room Laguna, 2nd floor, decent enough furniture, shampoos, gels, lotions, a lot of towels, hot water, hair dryer, air conditioning. Huge terrace with two wicker chairs and a table. There are only 2 rooms per floor, in contrast to the main building, where there are 100 rooms per corridor. Once a week, the territory is really watered with some kind of muck, but the room does not stink.
A list of restaurants and their opening hours can be obtained from the reception. The food is very unusual, interesting, delicious - be sure to try everything. We never had heartburn or upset, although we brought a bag of medicines with us (we read reviews). They make delicious cocktails with and without alcohol. We tried whiskey, rum, gin, beer - everything is very personal. Another interesting feature - if you do not hang a "Do Not Disturb" sign on the door, then an Arab will come at 9 am and wake you up for breakfast - very convenient. The pools are cold, but insanely beautiful, so we could not resist and took a dip.
On the second day we went on an excursion: on quad bikes to the Bedouins. Didn't really like it. Arafatki (checkered headscarf) buy in Hurghada cost $1.5, on the spot they will cost $7. And do not forget the glasses, otherwise you will have to buy Chinese ones for $ 15. If you just want to drive quads, then order an individual tour - the cost is $ 30 per person, and emotions for 3000. Just super. We went on an excursion to Luxor ($65). Comfortable shoes, a camera, a camera and a lot of positive emotions are guaranteed to you.

Now about the hotel staff - smart, there was not a single conflict, they served quickly and efficiently. The beach is well-groomed, as well as the whole territory, a lot of free places. You can borrow a mask and snorkel for free. The sea is warm and very beautiful.
Were in Hurghada. There is a taxi from the hotel (we got it for 4 - $ 20). A taxi driver will take you to a certain store. Don't get fooled. The Arab hangs noodles on your ears about the cheapest product, and when you return to him to buy something, the price will double sharply. You have to trade everywhere. If they do not drop the price to the one that suits you - feel free to turn around and leave - I give 100%, they will catch up and you will save money. So we bought 2 insanely beautiful brass hookahs for $60. Getting back to the hotel is not a problem, there are a lot of taxis, the only thing is that you need to negotiate the price right away: $ 10 for FOUR. They also exchange $10 for $1 very nicely. Be careful.
And so the hotel is just super, no queues in the restaurant. They danced belly dance, did water aerobics, aerobics, played ping-pong, tennis, golf, chess, table football, billiards. In the evening, after dinner, we smoked a hookah on the street near the pool, and then went to a disco. In general, everyone will find entertainment to their liking. In order for you to get bored with at least something in this hotel, you need to go there for at least 20 days. Enjoy your vacation!
