Hotel ratings by criteria:
To begin with, it was my first time in Egypt and in general abroad. I really liked the hotel, a huge area, all green, well-groomed, blooming. I have never seen such a variety of flowers, but what struck me most was the flowering cacti, indescribably (maybe we just got there at the right time, of course ... ) The hotel itself is also very large, as I understand the rooms are all standard, pretty spacious, small balcony. The bathroom is also not small, hair dryer, shampoo, shower gel, towels, it was all there! The only drawback is poor cleaning in the room, they left a dollar three times, but there was no result. And in the end, 10 dollars disappeared from the bag ...so it's better to keep the money in a safe, since it's free : ) it's better not to leave phones and cameras in a conspicuous place, you never know. The staff, in principle, is not bad, but the advantage of foreigners is felt, whatever one may say..
In the restaurant, they are always approached immediately, and the Russians always had to wait for the ordered drinks, a great advantage is that you can take water in unlimited quantities, either in the restaurant itself, or in the bars on the beach and in the lobby, because after talking a little with tourists from other hotels , I learned that in their hotels water is a big problem, to put it mildly, you can’t interrogate. There is a lot of food, for the whole week of rest I didn’t have time to try all the dishes, the only thing that I didn’t like there at all was a small selection of salads ...But all sorts of cakes, cakes and puddings are immeasurable !!! ! eyes popped!! ! juices are similar to powdered juice, like yupi and zuko used to be, but I liked the pineapple one. Freshly squeezed juices for a fee, $3 a glass. In the lobby, the bar was open from 10 am to 12 am, all alcoholic drinks are free, at least get drunk. Cocktails can be sipped while sitting on a soft sofa, the atmosphere is cozy and relaxing.
Only their drinks are low-alcohol, and the beer generally seems to be non-alcoholic, so who needs a high degree, it is better to go to duty free before flying!

Well, now about the most important thing - the sea ...It is indescribable!! ! No wonder they say that they go to Egypt to look at the sea. Pure transparent, with a variety of colored fish, the cat swims next to your feet! ! The sea is shallow, so that the depth becomes about 1.5 meters, you need to walk 200 meters along the pontoon, so lovers of depth will find this a disadvantage. But who goes to rest with children - a great choice! You don’t have to worry about small children (they won’t drown if they want). The beach is large, sandy, towels are free, there were always free sunbeds, the only thing is that if you want to lie under the same umbrella in the afternoon as in the morning, then it’s better to leave the towels there, there’s nothing wrong with that, but after dinner you’ll come to your own places .
There is also a bar on the beach, of course, alcoholic drinks are all free, we mostly sipped beer, light, pleasant, the head does not hurt after it ...Rum-cola and gin tonic are also okay ...Approximately 10.20 every morning exercises, looks more like yoga , interesting ...There was aqua aerobics near the large pool at about the same time, but it was necessary to guard around the pool all the time, so I never got into it. I don’t understand at all foreigners who come to the Red Sea and hang around the pool with chlorine water all day long ...Also in the morning there were always darts games, some strange balls, I don’t remember what they are called, volleyball is constantly ...Now on account of excursions since we rested for only a week, we only managed to go to Cairo, but honestly, it was not worth it. 8 hours on the bus there and the same back, terrible ...
Considering that it is almost impossible to sleep in these chairs, and even the eternal struggle over the air conditioner (who was sitting at the beginning of the bus was hot, and those who were at the end were cold), as a result, the next day my entire lower back ached, it blew. . . If you still go, then be sure to take some sweaters, put them on in such cases. The tour is very rich, first the pyramids (honestly nothing special) then the perfume factory, where they sell you oils for 30 dollars, the same quality as in the shop across the road for 5. Then a boat trip on the Nile, perhaps the only thing I liked. And at the end of the museum, in which everyone naturally had nothing to do, it would be faster to be in a hotel. There are many excursions to choose from. I advise you to take excursions across the road from the hotel from Ahmed, he himself speaks very good Russian, and he has two Russian girls working, they will tell you everything in detail and answer all questions.
And what is important, all his excursions are 30 or even 50 percent cheaper than those of tour operators! I would like to say that Tezturovtsy worked perfectly, there were no problems at all! We were met at the airport, escorted to the bus, brought to the hotel. In the hotel, the representative Ruslan, also speaks excellent Russian, is always at the hotel in the morning and evening, that is, if there were questions, there was someone to ask (For comparison, one young person who arrived from another tour operator did not know until the last what time the neg was flying and What time will the bus pick up? Well, that's probably all . . If you have already taken vouchers to this hotel, then tune in to rest, everything will depend on you ...And if you have not yet decided which hotel to choose, then I would advise Laguna Vista, it was right next to ours, the beach is more interesting, nice bungalows, and the feeder is much better!

Have a great holiday everyone, don't forget to use sunscreen, take about 50 protection for the first two days, otherwise you will burn like me (although I have never burned before, because I am very dark myself), but there the sun does not spare anyone! And do not forget to buy special slippers in which you can easily walk along the bottom of the sea (do not take more than $ 5, bargain until the last! ) and a mask, because the variety of fish and corals is impressive! If you have any questions, I will answer without problems, write
