Greetings.
Stayed in this room from 17.01. 2023 to 27.01. 2023, that is, mid-January. It was very warm, but we were told that this winter is warmer than usual. It cost 89 thousand for two. rubles, bought at the end of December.

About the hotel itself!

There are main blocks (to reduce the cost):
Domina Coral Bay Harem - https://www.turpravda.com/eg/sharm_el_sheyh/Domina_Coral_Bay_Harem-h17972.html#reviews
Domina Coral Bay El Sultan - https://www.turpravda.com/eg/sharm_el_sheyh/Domina_Coral_Bay_El_Sultan-h17960.html#reviews
Domina Coral Bay Oasis, Domina Coral Bay Bellavista etc.

The first two (Harem and El Sultan) are more expensive, all the rest are approximately in the same price range. The difference between them is NO! …. Well, except that if you overpay twice as much and it will bring you pleasure and improve your vacation, then ....You know better.

All blocks Harem and El Sultan and Oasis and Bellavista and the rest are on the same territory. There are only 3 restaurants, and regardless of your purchased hotel, you can go to all these three hotels.

Briefly he them:
Spice (? Space) - A good, beautiful restaurant, located near Harem. The restaurant has paintings, well upholstered chairs, chandeliers…. We can say that this is a RESTAURANT.
It's good to go there in the evening, pay a couple of bucks to the waiter. They will set the table, wine, serve you ..... well, a respectable place, this is not a canteen. BUT the menu is the same as in other restaurants, BUT local chefs prepare, and this is very noticeable, IMHO (I was in this restaurant only once). In short, it’s beautiful in it, you can’t put it on your plate yourself, but you need to ask the chef, while there are practically no people, not at all)) so I personally didn’t have to stand in line. It was amazing for me when people from Harem came to the central DINING ROOM…. . if you are in this hotel, then go.
El gardinio is a restaurant for Italians, in the evening there is almost only one Italian speech. I also consider it a restaurant, it is located on the street, sometimes on the water. They also serve you, cooks serve food, different cooks cook the same way, so the menu is the same, but cooked differently.
The assortment is not very diverse, but the Italians are delighted.
Coral Dining Room is the central dining room, in it you put everything you want and as much as you want, go in whatever you want (there is no dress code). Lots of food, fruit, meat, dishes. If you do not follow a diet, kosher, that is, crabs, shrimp, squid ....in general norms. If you are a gourmet, then perhaps the cuisine is not the best.

The blocks/hotels themselves.

Harem and El Sultan and Oasis and Bellavista - for simplicity, these are all blocks. We were in the Bellavista block, exit at dawn, exit inside. It is considered the quietest. Therefore, it was quiet, the sun woke up, it is located on a hill. I find it difficult to answer what is the difference between the blocks, but here's what I'll say. The hotel is old and everything is done with a taste of 20 years ago. We had a solid wooden table and a mirror in a wooden frame in our room. It was a pleasure to work at such a table. Therefore, there are rooms that have been restored, but there are not, but everything is done with taste.
If you plan to sit all day in the room and look at the ceiling, then this is not the hotel, the rooms are 3+…. or overpay. Cleaning every day, cleaned normally. We were with a small child, they brought a crib, a good-old-wooden one. Everything looked good in the room, harmoniously.

Sea!!!!
Beach for 5, wide, long. The hotel has 3 beaches. The main thing is that there is a pontoon and a pool in the sea, look on youtube, you will understand what I am writing about. Therefore. The sea-beach is very good, there were with a small child, there are entries into the sea, there is sand for castles.

The main thing!!! ! LOUNGES. They are very good, you can adjust the visor. Not all hotels have this. Made by Italians, in general, they are delighted with sunbeds. There are also plastic sun loungers, if you like the sun and the sea, then just right.

And that:
The sea is excellent, and the beach and the fish can be seen and sunbathed and bald on the pontoon.
Food, restaurants - normal, good.
The rooms are old but tasteful, have balconies, large windows. For me, it's okay.
Even gives a little exotic, nice.

There are shops in the center of the hotel. But if you are not with a one-year-old child / baby, then it is better to go to the old city.

In the evening it is not boring, a lot of people. By the way, apartments are rented in this hotel, so there are locals, there are visitors who live there for several months. You may get the impression that you are in a city, but small and cozy.
Animation is, but we went to bed at 20:00.
Time in the hotel is not in Moscow, but in Rome, Italian. Sometimes it coincides with Moscow, and sometimes not. For example, the Poles were 2 hours behind. They were not comfortable, so they went to a disco with the child, but skipped breakfast.

For breakfast / lunch / dinner, it is better to go earlier, as there is more food, in terms of variety.


There are also local minibuses, the hotel is large, but it is a hotel, not a city, so everything is within walking distance, we had to go to the sea in the region of 5-7 minutes and this is with a small child and at the same time bellavista is the very last block.
But these tuff-tuffs are interesting to ride, they are electric cars (if they are gasoline ones, but there are fewer of them), and this gives a certain courage to the rest.

I don't post pictures because there are tons of videos on youtube.

Be careful!!!!!!!

We flew in and as soon as we left the airport, the Egyptian guide told us - “it happened here, you can’t imagine, you will be sent to a Super-duper hotel, there is wow food, wow service and wow-wow there” We asked why not in the domina, we were told that something happened there, but that they don’t say and they won’t be taken ......there is a very long story ..... as a result, they settled in a bad hotel, namely - Sunrise Arabian Beach Resort - https://www.turpravda.com/eg/sharm_el_sheyh/Sunrise_Arabian_Beach_Resort-h38312.html#reviews. Why is it higher than Coral Domina in reviews?? ? I will answer, when We arrived there and started to sort it out, we were told this premium hotel and VIP-level hotel and this and that, but we left and there were only 3 people, all the rest remained.
And then when they met the others on the bus/airport they started to say that they were told that this hotel costs 300k for two or three…. Well, it's very expensive. But in this hotel there is no sea, no beach, NO normal sunbeds, the territory is small, it is very stepped, even the dining room is small. Therefore, marketing works here, people are simply delighted that they were settled in a VIP hotel.
Therefore, everyone decides for himself, Be careful !! !
