Stayed with my husband and 1 year old son. We ventured to fly to Egypt, although all of us were incited to go to Turkey, and did not regret it !! ! Before the trip, I read various creepy reviews about the hotel, which I want to refute. 1. the reef is dead and there are no fish there - complete crap !! ! Fish in large quantities and varied. You just need to dive early in the morning, we had the maximum photo success from 5.30 to 6.30. Since 8 am, predators have been nipping and moray eels, dory, stingrays are difficult to catch - although it’s also divine!!!
2. The food is inedible - I, a nursing mother and my one-year-old child ate this food every day and did not notice the slightest problem with digestion !! ! 3. The staff is boorish and the service is terrible - we were always very quickly and kindly fulfilled any requests!
Of the shortcomings, I want to note the ants in the room, noisy Conder. But initially we were settled in a quiet room, not far from the "canteen", where everything functioned without any "caking". Attitude towards the child is excellent, everyone tried for us. "Stolovka" does not pull on the title of a restaurant with a Michelin star, but there are decent dishes, food that is not peppered in general without much fuss. Good breakfasts for those who "breakfast" in the morning (always live cooking of scrambled eggs, pancakes, toast, cereals with milk and milk porridge). If you want pork kebab and steaks with blood in the morning - you should go to another hotel! Excellent pastries and sweets! Fruit - modestly, but there is... No ice cream. I can’t say anything about alcohol, it’s not my specialty). The child ate a boiled egg, scrambled eggs, boiled potatoes, pasta and rice, couscous, boiled fish and chicken, boiled carrots, zucchini, bananas, bread, baked fish "from the chef". Restaurants "a la carte": oriental - delicious! pseudo-Italian for 3-ku. The menu in restaurants is only for visibility, the choice of 2-3 dishes))). The territory is spacious, green. Very convenient location - close to the airport (5 min transfer), and 10 min to Soho, where it's fun to walk in the evening. For children there is a room with toys, a lawn with "houses", a mini disco, no slides, a pool - a paddling pool, a good Russian-speaking animator Irinka.

In short, everything was much better than I expected))) Child really liked it. There is nothing to do at sea without mask-snorkel-fins. All in "sporting goods" - and dive into Sharm!! !
