rested with the whole family - me, husband, son (10.5 years old), daughter (6.5 years old). we were very satisfied with the rest. but since everyone has their own tastes, I will try to describe the hotel impartially. so,
the hotel itself - 5 (especially in the evenings : ))
the territory is very beautiful, well-groomed, a lot of greenery (especially considering that this is Marsa Alam - a desert), there are fountains. In the evening, all this beauty is highlighted. at the end of April there was still heating). The only negative is that there are no water slides, but there is a water park nearby. An excellent children's room with a playground.
numbers - 5
we took a family room (it's only $ 20 more expensive). We immediately settled in a good room (they didn't give anything, maybe these rooms are all good, because there are few of them). The room is spacious (50 squares).
I was very pleased with the electric kettle in the room. There are no complaints about cleaning either.
food - 3

I’ll make a reservation right away: absolutely everything suited us - the food was very tasty, but I want to give a general assessment. Firstly, a very meager assortment, even vaunted Egyptian sweets. Secondly, due to the fact that there is little food, it periodically ended. Of course, the staff tried to bring it as quickly as possible, but there were times when the "cauldrons" were empty. There is nothing to eat at all in the bars.
staff - 5
I would especially like to note the courtesy of the staff. Thank God, we did not have non-standard situations, but as far as we can judge, the staff is always attentive, smiling, unobtrusive. Before that we were in Hurghada and Taba. no reason).
this is absolutely not here (maybe because the resort is new and we have not had time to "show" ourselves yet)
animation - 5
standard set - gymnastics, water volleyball, beach volleyball, water aerobics, all kinds of activities for children, children's disco, evening show program 4 times a week - all for free. the animators worked well, with enthusiasm.
beach - 5
the beach is two-tiered. there have always been places (maybe because there are few of us : )).
corals - 4
the reef itself is excellent, but to get to it, you have to walk 40 meters along dead corals. Of course, a pontoon would help, but it was destroyed by a storm. Since there are no breakwaters in Marsa Alam, when strong waves hang a black flag in the sea, this means that you can’t go into the sea. During our vacation, this happened only once. In dead corals there are places where children can swim (the bottom is sand, the depth is maximum waist-high - such small "pools")
in general, if you are not a glutton, not a reveler, and even more so if you are with children, then feel free to choose this hotel. advice - be sure to make photocopies of passports.
