Upon arrival at the hotel, for some reason, there was immediately a strong opinion that 5 stars is too much for him. Well, 4 max. Or even 3.

We arrived at 09 in the morning, filled out the form, and at 11 we were wearing bracelets. In principle, an hour later they already gave the key to room 1208, although the settlement, according to the rules, is from 14:00. This was all right.

The room is a bit "tired", cap. A refurbishment could do with some work, but overall everything is clean and tidy. There was even an iron, which we really liked. Hassan cleaned every day, thank you very much for the beauty that he made every day from towels) and for always being smiling and kind.
The food selection is small, but you won't go hungry. My husband and I liked it. But those who are waiting for frills are unlikely to like it.
In the first two days of rest there was even fresh guava. It's delicious for anyone who has tried it. Also fresh dates every day.

We didn't like the local alcohol. And that the brewed coffee is extra charge. They drank Nescafe from a vending machine. Passable.
But I don't want to anymore. )
One time it was possible to visit the a la carte restaurant for free to choose from. We booked a fish. But the assortment there is about the same as for dinner in the main restaurant. Therefore, I was not impressed.

We went for the sake of reefs and marine life, so we tried not to be very upset that we paid money for 5, but in fact we got a solid Turkish 3-ku.
The hotel does not have its own beach, there is no pontoon, but this is because corals are being restored at the moment, so the security does not allow entry into the sea from the Hilton beach. You need to go a little further and the miracle begins!
A variety of fish, turtles (unless, of course, swim in the sea for the parking of boats), we saw stingrays and squids.
We were lucky with the staff - they are all very friendly and helpful! I would especially like to thank the girl from Guests Relations - Adriana L. for her attention and help. If you need something, then feel free to approach her, she will always help).
But he only speaks English or Spanish.
We spent most of our time at sea, so I don’t know about animation.
We only swam in the pool twice. Everything is ok there.
Diving center is better than the one that is further away from the hotel.
The overall impression is excellent (mainly because of the sea).
But next time we will go to another hotel).
