Rested at the hotel from 02.01. to 08.01.
Pros:
- a large and very green area - the hotel is located in a park, grass, palm trees, flowers grow everywhere, rabbits and birds run on the grass.
-a large beach -there was enough space for everyone, there are fences on the beach from the wind, a good entrance to the sea -sand, you can walk without slippers.
-quite good food (as for Egypt): for lunch and dinner there were always fish, chicken, sometimes beef, kebab, once there was a fried turkey (for Christmas, drinks (Pepsi, Fanta) are given in glass bottles. Lots of pastries.
Minuses:
-rooms: we had a standard, they gave a room with a view of the road (No. 350) -all three hundredth with a view of the road, the furniture is old, the TV is a small kinescope. But for a surcharge, people were moved to rooms with a good view and an LCD TV (but those who arrived earlier or later than us). As I understand it, with a number, how lucky. Perhaps at the time of our settlement there were no other rooms.

-for me, the underwater world was a minus -there are corals, but many are dead and there are not many of them, there are not so many fish either (I was in Hurghada and Sharm and saw that corals can be much more beautiful, but whoever is the first time -I think you will like it)
-location - the hotel is not located in Safaga itself, but 25 km from it, so there is nowhere to walk. Near the hotel there are about 10 shops with souvenirs, a mini market and a pharmacy.
-the quality of alcohol -drank wine and beer -poured from some thermos bags, it feels like everything is diluted. Wine for lunch is poured into plastic glasses.
- flies on the beach and in the room.
- the pool is not heated - no one swam in it at all - it's cold
But overall, I'm happy with my vacation.
Of course, I would like warmer water in the sea and so that there is no wind, but January is January. Although it was not so hot, but almost every day from 11 to 15, while the sun is high, you can swim: it’s cold only to enter and exit the water, and the water is more or less warm.
