отель хороший . the hotel is good.

I rested in early October 2017. The territory is quite large, common to two hotels: Sivy Port Ghalib and Port Ghalib Resort. Also shared reception and main restaurant. At the reception there is free wi-fi and several sofas where it is nice to sit with a coffee or a cocktail. There are swimming pools, including a lagoon with sea water. I lived in a standard room, equidistant from the restaurant and the beach. The room is excellent, in Arabic style, kettle, tea-coffee set on the day of arrival. Also daily 1.5 l bottle of water. For those who like to sit on the balcony with a cup of tea and coffee, I advise you to take them with you, since neither tea nor coffee is replenished later. There were three Russian channels on TV, so fans of news and series should be satisfied!
I can assume that food lovers will also be pleased, although I did not observe any frills. However, fresh vegetables, romaine or iceberg lettuce, greens were always available. Enough different side dishes for lunch and dinner, chicken in various forms, fish. I recommend paying attention to the street grill - sometimes lamb and grilled fish, quite tasty. For breakfast, the choice is also not bad, I got hooked on moussaka - very tasty! Big minus - fruits! There were always dates and tangerines/or oranges. Apples only crushed! Melon finely chopped. Green peaches the size of a small apricot, no strawberries or watermelons. Fruit lovers will be disappointed. But a huge selection of desserts, including baklava and other oriental pastries! Just great with coffee! And the coffee is not bad!
The main pluses of this hotel are the beach and the reef! That's why we're going to Egypt. The beach is wide, there are many umbrellas and sunbeds, as well as fences from the wind! Believe me, this is true in April! The weather was quite windy, sometimes overcast, even rain with a thunderstorm!

The pontoon is long, ends already at a depth, where the reef goes down a sheer wall! The reef is beautiful, bright and densely populated! But at this time of the year the waves are not weak, so the pontoon can be closed! But even with a yellow flag, be careful - the waves really blow away from the pontoon! There is an entry from the shore along a stone slab, just right for families with small children. Safety shoes won't hurt.
Also on the beach of Port Ghalib Palace there is a pontoon. And the sea is much calmer there, and the reef is just as wonderful!
Port Ghalib itself is a promenade, yachts, cafes and shops. Nothing special, but you can walk a couple of times.
Many Europeans rest in the hotel: Germans, Italians, Scandinavians, Czechs, Poles.
Will I return to this hotel? Yes, with pleasure, but in a more calm season!
I recommend this hotel to snorkelers!
