It was the first time in Domina Coral Bay Oasis. The hotel is super huge (you will "nurse" exactly more than 10 thousand steps), green, the staff is friendly, you can eat in three restaurants, but almost the same everywhere! Heated pool. It is essentially a city within a city. Small buses "taf-taf" run around the territory literally every 5 minutes, covering the entire territory of the hotel (this is for the lazy).
Now more...
I can’t say that I didn’t like it, but I can’t say that I was delighted either. But I won't be back for sure.
We arrived with children and there were 12 of us.
TIME. This hotel has its own time, +1 hour. If in Cairo it is 11:00, then at the hotel it is 12:00. Rave. You leave, you call in, you eat at the hotel time.
HOTEL POLICY. We arrived early in the morning. Check-in, as you all know, is at 14:00. Breakfast was not supposed to be for us, it was not paid for, however, like lunch, but ...
It’s good that they took cookies and bananas with them to the children, otherwise they would have sat and they were hungry. To be honest, this is the first time I've seen something like this.
Always on early arrival in hotels we were fed breakfast.
...What the guide said upon arrival at the meeting. If you arrived early in the morning and had lunch that day, then this lunch is not supposed to be for you, the hotel gives it to you. and on the day of departure (check-out from the hotel at 12, and at normal time at 11! ) you are no longer entitled to lunch, and if you didn’t eat it on the first day, you can have it on the last day, but be sure to warn the reception. The hotel "gives" you ONE free lunch))) And if you fly away later, then you rent a room, they cut off your bracelets and then everything is for money. You can extend the number, for each subsequent hour +7 euros. Well, or ask for a free room for half an hour before departure, to wash and change clothes.
NUMBERS. 33 building. Tired. The door handle was broken, they fixed it and they wanted money for it) The table and chairs on the balcony are scary to sit down and the view is terrible. NO WHERE TO DRY THINGS!! ! How is this possible, I don't understand at all!!!
FOR THE HOTEL: attach at least small dryers on the balcony!
INTERNET is super bad, if you need to be in touch, then buy a card at the airport!!!
SMOKING. Although the territory is huge, but for a non-smoker, a problem may arise. There are no separate smoking areas, which means that you can smoke everywhere. On the beach right on the sunbeds, if the wind is in your direction, then you are out of luck. In a restaurant at a table on the street, you can also, and again - you're out of luck - relax and breathe.
FOOD. When I read a review about bad food, I did not understand how this could be. Take a piece of grilled meat / fish + vegetables and here's your happiness. In fact, everything turned out differently. Finding "that piece" on the grill is a real challenge. All in batter (had to "tear off"), sauce. No, of course, we were lucky for a couple of evenings and we ate a delicious grill, but for me three dinners are not enough. For breakfast I took an omelet, three times I "ate" with a shell. It's not very nice to crunch...
It’s clear that we didn’t go to eat, but batters are not mine.
Children and food. There is a children's table (only lunch and dinner, by the hour), a separate designated place. But there is all the same food as in adults (battery, sauce, etc. ). Our children ate rice + cucumber all vacation, but yours may be different.
You will not drink delicious coffee here, even for money.
Cakes, to my surprise, were delicious, there is jelly.
From fruits were pomegranate, grapefruit, orange, mandarin, melon, banana, white guava, rarely fresh dates. In the old market they bought strawberries for $ 1.
Coral Restaurant. Tables are dirty. Everything is sticky
ALCOHOL. If you "use", you need to take with you from Duty Free. You can't drink locally.
BEACH. Huge. Clean. You can smoke. There are pontoons with pools. The reef is like a reef (the fish, like everywhere else, saw a small stingray right near the shore). The advantage is that you do not need to look for places, they are always there.
For children, there is a huge playground-ship behind the beach bar behind the volleyball field.
A woman constantly walks and offers a photo session, maybe 7 times a day ...tin.
SWIMMING POOL. Warm. The central one (not far from the Coral restaurant), small, without anything, there is not even a small slide for children. (Honestly, it was a surprise for me, I didn’t even know about the pool in advance, because I couldn’t even imagine that in such a huge hotel there wouldn’t be some kind of small “mushroom slide” for the child). There are also a couple of pools around the area. There is a paid spa center, there are many pools.
ANIMATION. I will write purely about the evening, in the arena. Every evening only dancing. Come and watch the dance. The first day I looked, the next day I didn’t - it’s not interesting. And for those who dance, it's better not to watch at all)
Further, it seems like there is a disco, but we did not go.
There is a kids club. Animators are mostly Italians.
Russian-speaking animator, only one girl - Violetta, good, but as you understand, she physically cannot be with the children all the time, and therefore our children came only at the time that she was. At other times, children were simply not interested because of a lack of understanding of the language, there were no cartoons in Russian / Ukrainian either (but this is more like information for you, we didn’t need cartoons).
Big + in the presence of an inflatable slide and a trampoline!! ! My child was happy. And the guys who work on the trampoline are very pleasant, kind, cheer up the children. Just respect.
STAFF. Polite. Kind. Friendly. Friendly. Well done!!!
CONTINGENT. Italians, Ukrainians. May the Russians forgive me, there is no "tagil", which was very pleasing) All cultured, nice people who respect the rest of those around them.
TRIP TO THE CITY. There are no free transfers at all. Go to the first barrier and take a taxi there. Old market = 20 dollars (round trip). Naama bay and Soho = 15 dollars (round trip).
