Transfer from Hurghada to the hotel.
It took about 5 hours. The minibus is small, there is not enough space, the suitcases were attached to the roof. Lucky, even though the road itself was good and not very shaking. There were 4 people before our hotel.
Settlement
We were at the hotel around 10 am. They settled in right away. For a surcharge of $ 10 per day, the room was upgraded to deluxe.
I had to find the number myself. Since we were brought half way, they showed us the direction and left for our suitcases. With the help of workers somehow found.
There were a lot of people in the hotel.
Number
The deluxe is relatively new. Interestingly designed. Lots of light sources. Technique is working. Sea view. The internet was good in our room as there was a router in the room. The speed was enough to watch YouTube and Netflix.

There were no slippers and bathrobes in the room, we said this at the reception, while we reached the room, slippers and bathrobes were already waiting for us there. The deluxe suites are accommodated with children too.
Staff and service
Mostly communication in English, not a problem for us. Everyone is friendly and willing to help if needed. But there was an impression that the staff is not enough.
Nutrition
The weakest point of the hotel. We were in the top three, so this hotel is worse. There is nothing. What they have is not tasty.
Breakfast is pastries and eggs. Sausage, cheese and sausages are not edible even by the standards of Egypt. There is no coffee machine in the main restaurant. To drink coffee for breakfast, you need to go to the bar. Lunch and dinner - several types of meat, rice, which has been the same all seven days, some salads. You can choose something, but there is no variety and not tasty.
Cooking pizza on the beach - edible.
There are coffee machines at the bars, the coffee is average.
Water from coolers of unknown origin. We didn't dare to drink. Bottled water at the bar is paid. They bring 1.5 liters per day to the room, which was enough for two of us with a stretch.
Several types of fruits, 1 time there were squids - but this does not save the overall picture.
Sea.
Our entire stay was windy. It was possible to swim from the pontoon in the morning. There is also a shore entry.
There is no reef right next to the pontoon. But if you swim out of the lagoon into the open sea, then there is more or less something to see. When entering from the shore, the reef is worse, but there is a chance to see turtles.
Territory
Green and spacious, it is clear that they began to look after her. Nice, secluded. Lots of birds and other animals. We even saw a desert fox.
Infinity pools. Long, beautiful.
Output
I liked almost everything in the hotel, except for the transfer and food. If the first can still be attributed to the remoteness of the hotel, then the second turned out to be a very significant minus for us personally. If they fix the food, it might not be a bad choice. But in its current form, the hotel is suitable only for tourists who are not very demanding in terms of food.
