The only downside is the long walk to the beach. More than 500 meters if you're going through the hotel, and up to 1 km if you're traveling by bus.
And of course the SEA is super, everything is just as beautiful, affectionate and warm in the month of March in the afternoon.
Mahmoud Gamal, booda??????? ? we love you)
Now about the hotel - they settled in a room with a view of the children's toilet near the water slides, one of our rooms for the disabled with a low washbasin, handrails, we wanted the sea, but we got the water park too well, but still the beach is sooo far away and it is sooo bad on it hosts 3 hotels together!! ! The bus runs, but does not always take standing passengers! The food is terrible, monotonous, tasteless for 9 days, nothing has changed, breakfasts are generally sad, there is something to compare in Egypt 5 times! Pizza and grilled chicken are constantly burnt, you can’t take a bag of green tea with you to your room, the bartender is watching and yelling))) If you are not interested in the sea and running around at 6 in the morning to take a sunbed, then come here! The animation is great and the evening shows, the child is happy!
Therefore:
The hotel is very large (uncomfortable to move in the heat (43-48 °) from the pool to the slides, and to cafes, and vice versa) how many hectares I do not know. The hotel area is well-groomed and landscaping.
Number:
Our room number 1244 (it is located in the main building, where the reception is on the second floor) The room itself is new after renovation, but very poorly cleaned (it does not interfere with rest) air conditioning is very noisy in the first days it is very audible then get used to.
Room cleaning is daily, towels are changed daily, bed linen is not changed while you are staying, the terrace (balcony) is not cleaned (nothing is left for money left).
Restaurants:
You can't call them restaurants - they are canteens! ! ! !!
AWFULLY DIRTY! ! ! !!
plates are dirty, glasses are even worse, tables are not cleaned and not always set, the food is not tasty at all, the choice is small for children only fries, pancakes, pizza (dough and cheese) and fast food in "club Mac" which is near the slides (by the way map hotel no one will give you and all this you need to look for) of fruits: dates, apples, oranges, grapes.
Coffee shops:
You can't go without $, you can't shine a mojito, a cocktail or a normal glass.
Without $ you will be given 150 ml of a disposable cup of Pepsi Cola or Sevenap may not even be cold, ice cream is often not what you have, a portion of ice cream 50-70 grams, for $ 1 you get 200-250 grams. If someone in front of you has paid $, they will wait until the bartender takes the order to the deck chair / table and no matter how far from the bar, wait. The impression is that for $ they are capable of everything and more (And by the way you are waiting in all locations where you were paid)
The beach bar is another story.
Bartenders boo, cola drinks, sivenap from a bottle and not always cold, ice is not always there, the same glasses of 150 ml (if you give $ will be bigger), until you get to the deck chair you can come back for a drink.
Towels can be exchanged for clean ones at 5 pm and no one cares that you are at sea at this time, they do not change in the morning, but sometimes you get to normal ones and they will change (and maybe they are waiting there).
Sea:
There is no coral reef! ! ! ! ! There is a gentle sunset for children, but if you came here because of the beauty of the sea, then you are definitely not on this beach. Many people here write about the "wild beach", so it is, but it is not freely available. One day you will be admitted for $ 1 per person, and the next day for unknown reasons and for $ not allowed.
I do not recommend the hotel.
I will attach 2 photos:
1 photo of a free mojito (although lime in the dining room shaft)
2 photos of beach cafe, warm Pepsi and Sevenapu
I have never seen such an all inclusive.
The food is not tasty, a lot of meat but the chicken was the tastiest and not always, they promised that there will be shrimp, squid, mussels but never in 7 days they were not given (((small glasses of water, cola, juices, had to take 2 glasses to get a normal drink (for children a lot of class slides, children are not bored))) Went to the old town, wanted to go to the mosque, but we were not allowed… although our guide himself advised us to go there, with We were unlucky as a guide, because he did not give us any information, a girl from Kyiv worked with herbs, she told us everything and advised us, thank you very much for that)))) we will definitely not return here again.
I take one point for cleanliness in dining rooms. Tables, chairs and floors are not always well wiped.
The rooms are cleaned well. The territory is well-groomed.
Separately, I want to highlight the spa at the hotel. I really liked the hammam and massage treatments. Did a girl named Zmzam, works very well, after the procedures I was like a newborn, I recommend.
And now in more detail.
The holiday was ordered through the company Putevka. ua Extremely convenient site for choosing hotels, description, price, flight: everything is convenient!
Thanks to the manager Alona for a professional and prompt approach, and for a good discount)))
Bracelets are worn by everyone at once, regardless of the time of arrival and are not removed during eviction. We arrived at 7:00, we were immediately invited to breakfast, and at 10 o'clock we were offered a Family Room (although we booked the standard)) free of charge. By the way, I will write at once that the staff is polite, Egyptian neat and respectful, I have never seen a hint of a tip, smile, help, pour and impose as needed)
There is normal wifi throughout the territory! ! ! !!
According to the description of 5 restaurants, although in fact it is 2 locations and a common room for 3 and 2 restaurants, respectively. The food is varied, tasty, high quality. There is everything from children's menu to shrimp, from a variety of pastries to grilled meat, as well as watermelons, plums, melons, ice cream! And many things)) (and for those who write "do not stay hungry" - I'm sure in 10 days no tourist has such a variety at home)
Drinks are such as jupi juices everywhere, local alcohol), although bottled beer, coffee from the professional.
The water park and pools were used by everyone, everyone will find a slide to their liking, and also used the water park of the neighboring Albatross, there are 4 extreme slides and even conquered the "Death Capsule"! ! ! !!
I liked the beach as an event for children and corals. Indeed, corals are not as diverse and bright as in some places, but the fish are almost all from the brochure about the Red Sea: surgeons, parrots, angels and even a large family of clownfish!
And a gorgeous view from the upper tier to the whole bay and a glass 9-storey elevator to the beach!
You will find everything you need for yourself and your children in this heavenly place! Thank you to the administration and staff of Aqua Blu! ! ! !!
