I traveled with my husband and child (3 years old). The hotel was chosen based on the price of the tour and reviews.
We flew with Anex, we saw the hotel guide only once, he told us about the excursions, we wrote a receipt that we would not buy excursions from other tour operators (complete garbage) and we didn’t see him again, even no one hung information about the return flight on the stand , learned verbally from some employee of Anex, who was noticed in the lobby by chance on the evening before the day of departure.
The check-in went well, without additional payments we were given a good room on the 2nd floor, in some distant wing, but quiet. Sea view in this hotel is a conditional concept, because. in my opinion, for a hotel located on the 1st line, it is far from the sea, but walking through a beautiful flowering area compensates for the distance. We arrived at night, wanted to negotiate for a room with a sea view, they gave us a pool view and wanted $ 30 for it, we refused and settled in a room that we received in advance without additional payments, and did not regret it - quiet, calm and new furniture unlike the pool view room we had.
The food at the hotel is not 5 stars, of course, but we were not hungry, in principle it was quite diverse, there are no complaints. normally. The waiters are not very friendly to the Slavs, the attitude towards foreigners is completely different.
Baby food - rice, french fries, pasta))) The child, fortunately, is no longer small, he ate the same as we did.
Animation - we liked it, the guys every day staged some kind of performance in the amphitheater on the street, it seemed to be fun. The child was delighted with the mini-disco (held indoors), we did not go to the mini-club, but it worked. Playground for children with a plane is not bad, but for some reason it was not in special demand among children.
The sea. At first we were in a slight shock - according to the reviews we read that it was small, but we didn’t think it was that much. Before this hotel we were in the Sea Club, Continental Plaza Beach and Disol Royal Rojana Resort, we saw enough of the fish and beautiful reefs, and here even and there is no hint of corals, the fish are gray, mostly fry, we saw a needle fish a couple of times and some 2-3 striped colored fish swam a couple of times. The heron also walked in shallow water))) The pontoon is 400 m deep - at low tide it is chest deep. But since we were with a child, it was even convenient for us, we taught him to swim) If you go from the shore - 200 m knee-deep depth, then an ankle-deep spit, further lagoons, where sitting - the depth is up to the neck. It was normal for us with the child, especially since we had seen enough of the fish on previous trips, but if you go to admire the beauties of the Red Sea or for the first time to Egypt, then definitely not to this hotel, so as not to spoil yourself impression! But for those with children or bad swimmers - this is what you need.
In general, Nabq is a specific area - windy, long pontoons, strong currents, there are practically no corals, only in some hotels. You need to keep this in mind when choosing a hotel, Sharks Bay is better.
There is a good kite surfing school on the beach, the course is $ 150, the conditions for kite are suitable here - shallow and good winds, those who love extreme relaxation may be interested.
Another point - we arrived at the end of Ramadan, at this time Arabs traditionally gather in hotels with large families and it becomes very dirty everywhere))) this should be taken into account when planning a trip to Arab countries.
We had a return flight at one in the morning, they wanted to pay extra and extend the room, but they refused us, they said that the hotel was 100% full due to the large number of Arabs who came in large numbers, we had to sit in the lobby with the child until 9 pm... well, nothing, withstood) The bracelets were not cut off for us. In general, the number extension service seems to cost $ 5 per hour.
If you are traveling for no more than 15 days and are not going to go on excursions outside the Sinai Peninsula - do not buy a visa! Doll!
In general, we were satisfied with the rest, but we will not go to this hotel again. And in general I don’t see the point of going to the same hotel, it’s so uninteresting)))
