All our friends told us that we should not fly to Egypt, the rest is much worse than Turkey, but I really love the sea, and the red one is one of the best and I wanted to see it with my own eyes! My husband was skeptical and the flight was longer, I was more worried about the children (food) of my youngest 2.5! They told horror stories that even fries are tasteless (what I want to tell you, don’t listen to anyone, how many people, so many opinions, I couldn’t swim and dive! Every day new fish, on the last day I swam with a turtle !! ! These are indescribable emotions! I liked the staff more than in Turkey! They brought drinks and asked, like everything is fine? ) very nice! We had a large family, we wanted two separate ones next to each other, they immediately offered a family one, but they did not immediately agree, they thought with one bathroom, but in vain! You have to ask everyone) we looked at a couple of rooms, they are far from each other, we decided to look at the family room and were stunned! Apartments pancake) 100 squares, two rooms each with its own bathroom, hall, kitchen! This is something! No surcharges and near the reception!
With food in general is a waste! Chef from Ukraine! Food like at home! Breakfast is monotonous, but there are milk porridges, cereals (class for a child! ), for lunch there were mashed soup, borscht! Solyanka! My two plates burst! For dinner, potatoes with garlic, chicken, beef, turkey, liver, not peppered, not overdried, just class! Various baked vegetables and salads! Well, just class! Of course, we didn’t come to eat, but you must admit, it’s nice to relax when everything is high for you ?! ))) we bought whiskey in the Dutik (I had to buy it in Egyptian on my passport, but these are trifles) we drank whiskey in the evening, during the day the beer on the beach is wonderful! The hotel is cascading, it’s easy on the beach, it’s hard to go upstairs, but it’s useful) yes, they pour beer into disposable small cups, but everywhere it didn’t soar us) ice cream on the beach from 10 to 17, it’s very good, a beautiful bar is higher, there’s wine not bad) there are plenty of places on the beach, everything is often busy on the first line, but these are trifles) children can swim from the shore, an adult is knee-deep there, but it’s cool that the pontoon is 200-250 meters, it’s not stressful, the reef is awesome, there are more fish in the morning , at lunchtime it’s normal, while there are no people) and I swam with a turtle at 4 hours)) so it’s hard to guess)
Near the exit from the hotel there is a kids club, very cool, swings, a trampoline, a playstation, music and dancing, letkas had fun) there is a heated pool on the territory, who likes to ride in winter, outside the territory 5 minutes to Soho, cool) $ 10-15 and you in the old town) we went for seafood) fares restaurant, the taxi driver took us while we were waiting for the selected sea reptiles to cook, we looked at the main mosque) the taxi driver took a picture of us) generally cool guys) took a tour from the Pegasus hotel guide, the goat was still singing songs, that he has the best, most profitable and gave us a super duper discount, it’s good that I decided to go with my husband in two (he had a friend, we took a dive and two stops just to snorkel in beautiful places of Ras-Muhamed, etc. ) it turned out that he sold us more expensive, than everyone else, the sediment is unpleasant, the dive is cool, but it’s more like a dog on a leash was led around the reef and took a picture back, I didn’t have time to enjoy the moment, admire) fed the norms, it’s better in the hotel of course) I don’t advise taking a bathyscaphe with de darkness! A family with children went from our hotel, they said shit, the children looked for a couple of minutes, the sea, a couple of fish, they were supposed to swim to the Egyptian Maldives, and they made a couple of stops to snorkel, the children can’t because of the current, in the end they all burned out and got bored (and for this VIP tour people paid $100 per person!! ! So be careful!

Mosquitoes were also poisoned every day, but my little one was bitten anyway, our adapter did not help, they say they help, but they bought a spray and ointment from Mosquitoes after bites! The rooms were tired, but everything worked, they cleaned every day, they gave even more beach towels, the reception reminded that the departure was early and breakfast was included, order in advance) we did it and everything was ready! Water, juices, fruits and sandwiches, not bad, we had a bite at the airport, there is such a frenzied control) and my husband had others, we asked for congratulations at the restaurant, we decided in the central one, we didn’t go to Ala carte because of the little thing, we The waiters brought out a cake with candles and songs, very nice! We arrived there were few people, so calmly) then Ramadan ended and the hotel was crowded with locals, it only bothered me in the evening) we couldn’t find a place on the street, everyone was occupied by locals) and they are the same as us, there are arrogant ones, there are normal ones, they get out of line) ) from entertainment, animators come to the beach and invite to participate, but we didn’t go with the little one, I don’t like the hotel, in the evening the singer sang a variety of songs and ours and his naked is very good, then like a disco, the pianist plays in the lobby and pours local alcohol until 00-00 for free, then for $ local alcohol, but it's like that everywhere!
The only thing that is not very good is the sea closes at 6 and the pool too, but we all got up early, there is a completely different mode, different time) in general, I am very satisfied with the rest, now I don’t even know why to fly to Turkey))) nature of course, but the sea) there are still so many beautiful places in Egypt, in the north of Egypt there is a resort from Ukraine there is no direct flight, but there the Mediterranean Sea and white sand are just Egyptian Maldives) and also Siwa) an oasis of Egypt))) I am still reviewing the photo and video and I want to go back to summer))) I wish you a good rest! Most importantly good cream and swimming t-shirts! Guardrooms are not needed in this hotel) I am writing a review for the first time, I hope it was useful)
