To begin with, I am writing a review after a long time, so the emotions have already dried up.
1. Settlement. Settled quickly, but the room was far away. The room was waiting for a surprise small cake in honor of the anniversary. It was nice.
2. Room. Everything was fine in the room. Moderately large, but the cleanliness left much to be desired (there was mold in the bathroom, and in a fairly large amount)

3. Nutrition. Here everything was somehow wrong: it seemed that there was food and there was nothing to eat. Pasta was terrible, few vegetables. Meat at dinner was quite decent. The fish were also enjoyable. Another unpleasant surprise was that while there were few guests from the post-Soviet space in the hotel, the food was much tastier and more varied (there were octopuses and some other seafood). But if you still go to the sea, and not just eat, then you can survive like that. The bars in the hotel are located extremely inconveniently. There is a bar in the lobby, to which you need to go roundabouts from the beach, a bar on the beach (from one end of the beach to the other min. 5 walk) and a pool bar, it is also inconvenient to go from the far end of the beach (the one that borders Melia Sinai) . I have not tried the food in bars, so I will not say anything.
4. Sea!!!!! ! It was just gorgeous. The reef is great. Huge number of inhabitants. Somewhere nearby, a turtle lived. The entrance to the sea is only 1. The pontoon is large, you have to go a little. You can enter from the territory of another hotel. It is possible to lie down when there is no low tide, in shallow water near the shore. In general, what it is worth going to Egypt for is simply irresistible. (We went diving, so I liked our reef more).
5. Excursions. We took 2, so close. There was diving and Mega safari.
Diving was good. And the equipment and the instructor and the place where they dived. Mega safari is a waste of money. On quad bikes max. speed was 37 km. and then maybe for a minute, the rest of the time they just drove in a column of 17-20 km. Bedouins with camels are generally creepy. And along our route, the corpses of camels flickered in some places (I, as an emotional person, was upset).
Another thing I didn't like about the hotel is that there are no direct passages anywhere. If you need to go to a bar that is directly opposite you, you will have to zigzag across half the territory.
Conclusion: You can go, but I will not return there again. There are much better options.
