Accommodation and room. We arrived at the hotel after 9 pm. We were not immediately settled: they took our data and sent us to dinner. As we always do, we asked the administrator to give a room with a sea view or at least closer to the sea. We put $15 in the passport to boost the stimulus and welfare of the local economy and hinted that the hotel has rooms after renovation, like we want to go there. … More ▾ Accommodation and room.
We arrived at the hotel after 9 pm. We were not immediately settled: they took our data and sent us to dinner. As we always do, we asked the administrator to give a room with a sea view or at least closer to the sea. We put $15 in the passport to boost the stimulus and welfare of the local economy and hinted that the hotel has rooms after renovation, like we want to go there. In response, they heard that the renovation at the hotel is not carried out at all, the hotel is filled to capacity, and if we want a sea view, we have to pay an extra $ 30 per day. As it turned out later, there were a lot of free rooms in the hotel. In buildings that are closer to the sea, either those who agree to pay extra, or representatives of higher races are accommodated. So there are a lot of free rooms in them.
Anyway. The administrator showed us the map of the hotel and suggested building 26. The location suited us: 0.5 minutes to the restaurant, the same amount to the pool and 4 minutes to the beach.
We waited a long time for the porter. He came, showed us where to go, loaded our suitcases into an electric car and delivered them in 15 minutes. We went into the room. The first thing that caught my eye was the ragged dirty curtains. As if we were not expected. The furniture is old, the refrigerator does not work for cooling, but for heating. The walls are clean and the pictures are beautiful. The mirror is splattered and splattered. The air conditioner operates in two modes - "polar cold" and fan. If you turn on the "polar cold", you need blankets. They took out one from the closet, but it was so dirty that they preferred to cool the room first, and then sleep in fan mode. Air conditioning rattles, but not critical.
There was also a broken kettle in the room. Included with him were cups, glasses, tea bags, sugar, coffee, which I never used. There were beach towels but no bath towels. The TV is new, working, but most of the channels are with sea ripples.
Our room was on the ground floor, instead of a balcony there was a terrace with two armchairs and a table. It looks like the dust has never been cleaned there. Everything worked in the bathroom, there was shampoo, shower gel, conditioner, body gel, toothbrushes and paste. Some rooms also had washcloths. The tub and toilet have not been cleaned since the grand opening of the hotel. The tile near the toilet is covered with suspicious brown spots. It feels like someone was torn apart while trying to land on the toilet. Good thing there was no sewer smell.
In the daytime, only boiling water flows from the shower, in which direction you do not turn the tap, so you can wash normally only late in the evening. There is one free socket in the room, so we always carry a tee with us. Mosquitoes in the room did not seem to fly, but in the morning they found bites. Inspection of bed linen for the presence of insects did not give results.
The linen itself is so thin that the body is visible through it. Cheap handkerchiefs are usually sewn from such fabric. The safe worked but we didn't use it. What five stars can we talk about if there are no slippers, bathrobes, an iron, an ironing board, a notepad, a pen, a “Do Not Disturb” sign in the room? Bath towels were brought to us only late at night and then only one set. The only plus of the room is the proximity to the main restaurant and the pool. We were lucky: other tourists settled into their rooms with unchanged bed linen! They had a whole night epic of communication with the hotel administrators, which never led to anything: people were forced to sleep on dirty linen.
Territory.
The territory of the hotel is relatively large, well-groomed. Not to say that it is directly buried in greenery, but palm trees are earing, bougainvilleas and other plants are blooming, there are many cacti.
All this somehow brightens up the general dilapidation and decline of the hotel. Many lawns are planted with rare flowers, but no grass, which creates a depressing impression. Near the entrance to the hotel there is a pharmacy, small shops where you can buy souvenirs, beach accessories, food, local spirits, "signature" handbags, etc. There is also a small shop with fruits, camel thorns, teas and oils. There are also hotel taxi drivers who are ready to take you anywhere in Sharm at a tripled rate (it's easier and cheaper to get on the road and catch a taxi there). I really liked the birdhouse with parrots and pigeons. The caretaker gives a handful of seeds to feed the birds. You can go and see once. The kids will love it. Abandoned enclosures next to the poultry house testify that other exotic animals lived here in better times.
Every evening, a hotel worker in a space suit etchs the area with smoke from mosquitoes. Apparently, mosquitoes have already developed immunity to such smoke attacks, because in the evenings they simply rage. Stock up on aerosols.
Pool and beach.
For the first time we really liked the pool. As a rule, on previous trips we did not use the pool at all. But here I had to. In other hotels, we always woke up, went to breakfast by 7 am, and then immediately to the beach. Here the order had to be changed. You come to the beach with a long pontoon at 7.30 - all the trump spots in the shade are already taken, only sun loungers remain under the scorching sun. According to some vacationers, the best places are taken at sunrise (4 am) - they put towels, beach accessories and either leave or leave the head of the family on duty.
Then the whole family rows up to the beach by 9 o’clock, and the sleepy dad goes to a restaurant and brings breakfast to his entire brood. Very comfortably!
Lots of stairs! In the very distance, behind the grill restaurant there is an elevator, but why it was made in that inconvenient place for everyone remains a mystery. The beach below the amphitheater is always empty as there is no access to the sea. On the beach with a turret, the pontoon has never been opened, there were free sunbeds even at 9 am, but this beach is more convenient for those who like to lie around and drink all the bar alcohol. There is a lot of crowding there. The pontoons officially opened at 8 a. m. , but many climbed into the water long before the opening. We still seemed more comfortable beach with a long pontoon. They came in the morning, placed their things on hot, uncovered loungers and went for a swim. By 10 am moved to the pool. We got back to the beach around 5pm.
00 - at this time it is already easier to endure the heat, since the shadow from the rock covers almost the entire area with sunbeds. In winter, obviously, it will not be comfortable, because it will be cold.
The beach itself is very picturesque, and they pecked at it when choosing a hotel: beautiful rocks, palm trees, replicas of ancient Egyptian statues, an arched corridor between the beaches, etc. The coral reef shows signs of life in places. The assortment of fish is standard, but at different times of the day their number varies: at one time there are not very many fish, and at another you swim right among the shoals. We saw stingrays, moray eels, and lionfish, a lot of crabs. In principle, you can get pleasure from contemplating the underwater world. But the state of the pontoons themselves, of course, is deplorable ...The long one, which is flooded at high tide, is made of concrete pillars, on the surface of which you can injure your legs in places.
Near the edge of the pier, these posts are completely overgrown with slippery moss, people just fall. When on one of the sunny and joyful days the chief lifeguard slipped and fell in that place, the next day two workers were sent there with cleaning brushes, and they were sent at high tide, so they drank plenty of water. As a result of their two days of work, only 8 columns were cleared. The rest decided not to touch (there the authorities did not fall). The stairs are extremely uncomfortable, the handrails along the pontoon are made of flimsy plastic pipes. If you fall and grab onto such a pipe, you will pull the entire structure with you to the very shore. The second pontoon is short, but it is high above the water, and the stairs are extremely uncomfortable, it is very inconvenient to go down with flippers. The shortest pontoon, where the greatest depth is, has never been opened. The long pontoon was closed a couple of times, explaining that something had broken there.
What else can break on these ruins? ! It's just, obviously, they don't have enough rescuers, so they save on the protection of facilities. Beach umbrellas are narrow, create little shade, require overlap, but there is no money for this.
There are bars on the beaches, but the service there is worse than at the pool bar: no matter how you come, something is already gone. So you just opened up, how is it cola or is there no sprite? Rolled 2 barrels of beer, but no beer. Too lazy to connect? Sunbeds are wooden, just killed. In some places there are newer, plastic ones. They wipe them with a dirty rag and sweep the sand with a brush only after 8 in the morning, when the most thirsty seas are already in place.
Behind the grill restaurant, if you go to the right and go down, there is a small beach with a secluded place under the rock. There are several sun loungers, there is no scorching sun, but there is complete privacy on the verge of intimacy. The only negative is that if you want to plunge into the sea, you will have to go to neighboring beaches.
Near the pool there were free sunbeds at any time. If you have strong legs, you can sit there, and then jump up the stairs to the beach and back. There is a toilet behind the bar and under the amphitheater below the pool. The pool is clean, disinfected, but two days in a row after lunch it was closed until 18.00 for additional cleaning: exceeding the level of urine (Middle Eastern children…).
Near the hotel.
There are nearby hotels nearby. A 10-minute walk - a small area with shops, restaurants and other establishments.
Nutrition.
It was the food that shocked us on the first evening of our arrival. For the "five" a very meager assortment. You can write as much as you like #you won't leave hungry, #everything was very tasty, #desserts are great, etc. No, the food is just a disgrace to the hotel. There was a lack of elementary things - greens, salads, onions, sauces. No matter how you come, there are no tomatoes or cucumbers or both.
Yes, there are side dishes - rice, potatoes of various types, pasta, legumes, vegetable stews. Potatoes are sometimes undercooked. There was very tasty beef, chicken, oxtails, fish. But all this had to literally seek out and choose very carefully. The beef is often too tough and the chicken is burnt. I have never eaten such disgusting soups in any other hotel. The desserts on offer are shameful even for a two star hotel. The tray labeled "Seafood" usually contains claws, legs, and fragments of crab shells. It is absolutely inedible, but the main thing is to say: we have seafood, we have 5 stars, we meet all the criteria. Once they served squid rings in batter, but they were so burned that people thought they were onion rings for beer. From fruits - grapes, plums, dates, melon, watermelon.
For breakfast, for the first time, I simply did not want to go. People used to make fun of people who take boiled eggs for breakfast.
On this trip, we almost joined this category. Yes, they fry eggs and omelettes, but you won’t eat them every day. I always wanted to find out the recipe for the disgusting dough from which they made pancakes and donuts. How bad can pancakes be? There are standard for Egypt sausage and cheese cuts, sausages. In other hotels, we somehow ate it, but here they had such a disgusting taste that they reduced our choice of dishes for breakfast to zero. Tea and coffee during breakfast can be served from kettles in the dining room. For some reason, you have to go to the bar for them at lunchtime and during dinner.
There were no long queues at the restaurant. Sometimes I had to stand for 7 minutes for french fries, pizza or chicken at the pool bar at 16.00, but this is not critical. Fruits were also available there.
We liked the restaurant on the beach better: the assortment is small, but there is the most basic thing, no queues, a lot of free tables, a view of the sea + you can sit in wet swimming trunks. Local alcohol in bars is not for everyone, the beer is normal, light, you can drink it. Bottled water is sometimes poured on the beach, but it is warm and stronger. I was surprised that in different bars gin, poured from bottles with the same labels, was very different in taste - from sweet syrup to acetone.
Hotel contingent.
Most of the hotel guests are locals, Russians, Kazakhs, representatives of Algeria, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, many British, Germans, Italians. There were no signs of dislike for the Russians on the part of the hotel staff, however, the locals in the bars are served first. If you speak English, it will be easier for the staff to get along with you. Locals visit the hotel with whole families of all generations.
Unlike other hotels, here no one was pulled by the hand, like “let's go play darts”, but, nevertheless, the animators tried. I really liked the exercises and water aerobics in the pool: both women and men participated, everything is fun, international, incendiary and good for health. There was always the opportunity to play volleyball and water polo in the pool. All events were accompanied by an elderly Italian DJ. Every day, invited guests perform by the pool - dancers, circus performers. The Latin dancers were just amazing! In the evenings, all sorts of short shows were arranged in the amphitheater with belly dancing and skirt twirling with LED lights. You can go a couple of times. Near the main restaurant in the evening you can sit and dance to the songs of performers replacing each other every other day. In principle, you can have fun in the hotel. Alcohol is especially helpful.
Lifeguards are on duty on the beaches, but it happens that none of them are on the long pontoon. During our 12-day stay, sharks were spotted 3 times: one of the divers saw a small tiger shark, the other a small sand shark - all this according to them and according to unconfirmed reports. But once during my stay in the water, several people saw an easily recognizable fin in the distance right from the pontoon. Miraculously, everyone literally ascended onto the pontoon on foot! Each case was reported to the rescuer, but he always answered that there were no sharks here, it was tuna / big carp / pike, etc. When they saw the fin from the pontoon, he put on a mask, flippers and swam in that direction for reconnaissance. At this time, everyone stood on the pontoon and rejoiced at the epic nature of what was happening, secretly hoping that someone would still be devoured, it would be possible to film it on the phone and become an Instagram star.
But no, upon returning, the rescuer said that there was no one in the depths, everyone dreamed of everything, you can swim, and everyone, slightly disappointed, climbed into the water again. After these episodes, our swims in the early morning hours we abruptly stopped ...In all my 10 trips to Egypt, this happens for the first time. When descending into the water on a long pontoon, there really is an aggressive surgeon fish: it bites someone, it cuts my leg. Not critical, but the scar will remain.
Service.
You can write a lot about the service, or rather, about its absence. When you check into a five-star hotel, you somehow don’t expect that the change of beach and bath towels is made only by calling the reception. How is that in general? During our stay the bed linen was not changed even once.
Cleaning is symbolic: replenishment of stocks of soap, shampoos, toilet paper, a bottle of water, making beds, removing garbage from containers, lightly touching the floor with a brush, spraying the carpet with aromatic liquid. This is all. Left once a few dollars. There were no changes: swans and Nile crocodiles, woven from towels and strewn with bougainvillea petals, did not appear on the beds. Of course, we didn’t need them, but you can at least change the towels?!
Administrators speak Russian and English, but if problems arise, they lose all the skills to understand any language.
The bartenders are polite, pour without restrictions, deliver drinks by the pool and on the beach (if you ask). The restaurant was never approached.
The best service around the pool: all drinks are always available, friendly, albeit gloomy, bartenders, lucky ones carry ice towels, the presence of a restaurant with a snack at 16.
00, regular cleaning of the territory, good sunbeds and umbrellas.
Loved the hotel spa. We bought 5 massage sessions for 50 minutes and really did not regret it. Sauna, shower, jacuzzi, high-quality foot, hand, body, head massage (intensity is immediately negotiated with the masseur) and a cooling face mask. Real thrill! After the first sessions, my neck began to turn again without pain.
The greed of the hotel knows no bounds… How can you demand payment for the first breakfast? ! How can you cut off a bracelet from a person who is checking out of a hotel and leave him without lunch and dinner? ! With such a concept, soon only locals will rest in this hotel, for whom it probably seems luxurious.
We didn't use the hotel internet because we bought sim cards at the airport.

Hotel guides (bastards).
I don't even want to write about them. We read about them in previous comments, but we have never seen such frank rudeness and arrogance.
At the “mandatory” briefing visit, at the beginning they will tell you what bad tourists are, that you need to buy excursions only from Anex, and if you go with other companies, no one will save you, because insurance is only through Anex. Excursions are 1.5-2 times more expensive than other proven companies. They asked how much the trip to Petra cost, and he started to play around, like I need to see your voucher first. Zero information about hotel services. Just buy excursions. He refused to take a voucher: “Now I will sell excursions, and bring the voucher at 11.30. I will not accept a voucher in the lobby at the Anex counter. If you don't bring it here, rest as you please, but don't be surprised if you don't find information about your flight later. " Rare scum...People just arrived, I want to go to the sea to see, take a dip, no - everyone has to wait 11.30 to return the voucher. Just the god of Egypt!
As a result, we bought a trip to Petra for two from another company (saving $300) and, as it turned out later, our trip turned out to be much more interesting and meaningful than that offered by Anex.
It's high time for Anex to deal with his guides. They begin to show their arrogance and rudeness while being escorted from the airport to the hotel. Instead of useful information about the place of stay, they begin to intimidate, ask tricky questions about knowledge of the history of Egypt. Well, tell us if you're such an expert. No! If you want to know why cats were put in the tombs of the pharaohs, read on the Internet. Aneks, who did you hire?!
Departure from the hotel.
For 20 min. Before check-out, the administrator called and reminded that everything, it's time to move out. Of course, they forgot to send a porter for our suitcases. We hand over the electronic keys to the room, and they tell us: "You must hand over not 2, but 3 keys. "
I had to slightly raise my voice and explain that we were resting together, we were given 2 keys, we did not need the third one. Probably, we still raised our voice too much, because the administrator was a little taken aback and even forgot to cut off our bracelets. It was very useful for us, so we spent the rest of the day by the pool, enjoying the services of the bar and having lunch in a restaurant by the sea.
Departure from the hotel was on time, without crowds, but with the final check in the shops on the way to the airport. For what?!
General conclusions.
The hotel is in its decline. Picturesque rocks on the beach, a coral reef, good service near the pool, cacti and palm trees - all this will not save the hotel from fading without a major overhaul, a change in staff and attitude towards visiting tourists. Greed in everything...
Recommendations.
I do not recommend. The living conditions and service in the hotel absolutely do not correspond to the declared price.
We had a good rest, but, probably, mainly due to our boundless optimism, love of life and the change of the usual concept of rest near the sea to rest in British style (near the pool). You will never want to return to this hotel.

A few words about the hotel. Now, in our difficult time, it may not be relevant, but... The hotel is not bad, we lived in a renovated room, with a view of the sea. Meals for 5 with a minus (there were no queues). The beach is not bad, but the waves that did not allow swimming. Red flag, very common. Although the hotel is in the bay. … More ▾ A few words about the hotel. Now, in our difficult time, it may not be relevant, but...

Red flag, very common. Although the hotel is in the bay. So to whom the reef is not here. There are also few fish. Many thanks to Guest Relations Ira, a man in the right place. Helps with all questions. Animation standard, constantly invited artists. At 16.00 they serve pizza by the pool. You can dine at the Grill restaurant near the sea. As a budget 5, you can put a solid 4.

First time I'm writing a review. I always read between the lines, I always divide the negative by two. But this is where it boiled over. In short, it doesn’t smell like a five here, max. good trio. If it's cheap and cheerful - then you can, if you want 5 stars - this is not here. The rooms are four. There is no beach. … More ▾ First time I'm writing a review.

The rooms are four. There is no beach. Actually, there is no place. If you don’t take it early in the morning, then at least stop. Two hotels with one access to the sea - complete trash. It's not hot in December, and there are a couple of empty places in the shade, but it's stupidly cold there. Fun for 3 plus, but the guys are trying. The territory is large but bespontovaya, the pool was not heated, even though the description promised.
The kitchen is the biggest sadness. The expression "you will not stay hungry", which I often met here, I felt for myself. For two days it was frankly bad, on the other days it was tolerable, sometimes even not bad. But kamon, I arrived in the top five, and to dine in a canteen with unwashed distributors, dirty tables, the aroma is not directly a canteen, but a kitchen in a canteen...
I repeat, it is not worth the money as for the top five, if the price is similar to the top five, then I do not advise it.

We chose an inexpensive 5 * hotel with a good reef and a calm bay, we stopped at Dreams Beach for a little less than $ 1000 for 6 nights. Departure from Kharkov at 2 am and after 4 hours we are already in Sharm, stamped in the passport, luggage, SIM card and at 9 am we are at the hotel reception. From the lobby, it immediately catches the eye that it was once a good hotel, but now there are only remnants of its former luxury, everything can be seen in the details, the clock with different cities at the reception does not work, the furniture is shabby, the filamentous fountain is in a terrible state, New Year's decorations are apparently exhibited not the first year. … More ▾ We chose an inexpensive 5 * hotel with a good reef and a calm bay, we stopped at Dreams Beach for a little less than $ 1000 for 6 nights.

Departure from Kharkov at 2 am and after 4 hours we are already in Sharm, stamped in the passport, luggage, SIM card and at 9 am we are at the hotel reception.

From the lobby, it immediately catches the eye that it was once a good hotel, but now there are only remnants of its former luxury, everything can be seen in the details, the clock with different cities at the reception does not work, the furniture is shabby, the filamentous fountain is in a terrible state, New Year's decorations are apparently exhibited not the first year.

They said there would be no early check-in, bracelets would be given only at 10:30, breakfast until 10:00, which is not allowed without a bracelet. You can only water and tea at the bar. Bags should be left outside near the entrance to the lobby under the scorching sun, we decided to put everything we can in them and go to the beach.
The beach really turned out to be quite good, elongated along the bay, with 3 pontoons and a beautiful reef, there were not enough sunbeds, but after waiting 5-10 minutes there were always free ones, you need to go down to the beach either by stairs, I counted 140+, or along a winding road, from one end of the hotel there is an elevator to the beach, but we had a long walk to it, so we did not use it. The bay turned out to be not so windless out of 7 days - 4 there was a fairly strong wind, but there were no red flags.

At 13:00 we returned to the reception, received bracelets and immediately went to lunch, everything turned out to be good for food, chicken meat, beef, steaks, salads, fresh vegetables, fruits, you will not stay hungry. The cooks pour it themselves, it happens that 1 cook distributes it to several racks, so a queue gathers and it happens that you have to wait 5-10 minutes for one dish, or you can be impudent and come up to pour yourself.
13:55 we get a room on the 1st floor in building 35, which is closer to the sister hotel Dreams vacation, the poor cleaning immediately caught my eye, but since we were tired, we immediately went to bed, then we already saw yellow spots on the sheets, dirt in all corners, under the bed there is such a layer of dust that you can collect another mattress, not only to take a bathroom, it's disgusting to get up in slippers to take a shower, in general it's dirty.

The cleaner, in turn, can only sculpt animals from towels for a dollar, which he will not forget to remind you of, but you need to literally beg to wash the floor, once we saw how it is done there, water from a bottle splashes out in 4-5 places around the room and it all rubs dirty rag - everything! The cleaning is completed, it’s good that at least the garbage was taken away, in general, the dirt in the room was the biggest minus for our entire holiday.
After lunch, there are few people on the beach, since the rock covers the sun and it is all in the shade, many people gather near the pools in which no one bathes, because the water is very cold, but you can sunbathe, play table tennis, animation sometimes arranges darts, step aerobics, but there is no schedule, it all happens spontaneously.

The territory of the hotel is large, there is where to walk, there is a birdhouse with parrots on the territory, many beautiful sculptures, but almost all of them are beaten and look abandoned, if you leave the hotel and walk 200m to the left, there will be a market with souvenirs and a supermarket, as well as excursions with prices better than on the beach and even more so with a guide, although you can find it even cheaper on the Internet, for $ 2 we went to the old city, it is nearby and in Soho for $ 8.

After dinner, they arrange a children's disco, after which there were Latin dances, magicians, singers on different days.
If you drink strong alcohol, then I highly recommend taking it with you, we did just that, for the sake of interest I took pure gin and whiskey, the same ocetone in glasses of only a different color, it’s better not to drink this, beer is tolerable, wine too, but they give it only for lunch and dinner, in general, all alcohol is given from 12 noon to 12 at night.

We had a late flight at 20:00, we checked in at 12, cut off the bracelets, so we were left without dinner) Which of course didn’t make us happy, I understand that we didn’t pay for it, but in other hotels they always fed us upon arrival and departure, especially during the stay, we definitely missed a few meals, in general, a trifle, but unpleasant.
Summarizing, I repeat, it is clear that the hotel used to be much higher than it is now and they simply don’t invest in it or save money, but they say there are new renovated rooms, maybe the situation is better there and the cleaners do a better job, maybe we just got unlucky) In any case, there is something to work on, perhaps when the reviews about the hotel change for the better, we will return here again, but now we will refrain.

We chose the hotel for the second time in a year, for the first time we were in February 2021. The choice fell due to an acceptable pricing policy and I didn’t want to take something unverified for this budget. Time of stay from November 24 to December 1. So, we clearly understood where we were going, read the reviews, were surprised that they were worse compared to February. … More ▾ We chose the hotel for the second time in a year, for the first time we were in February 2021. The choice fell due to an acceptable pricing policy and I didn’t want to take something unverified for this budget. Time of stay from November 24 to December 1.
So, we clearly understood where we were going, read the reviews, were surprised that they were worse compared to February. After analyzing, we came to the conclusion that the rating of the hotel was influenced by the reviews of the eastern neighbors, representatives of the Russian Federation.
Check-in at 1.00, lived in building 17, after repair, everything worked, clean, tidy. They left $ 1 when chocolate was removed, sometimes late, at 15:00, when they came running from the beach, then they talked and asked to be cleaned until 14:00.
We were at the hotel at 15-00, lunch was over, but at 15-00 we had a snack by the main pool, a la pizza, french fries, vegetables, fruits, a bar nearby.
The territory is large green, the pool is huge (cold in November, the water is no more than 20 degrees, it is not heated in winter either !!! ), heated from 15.12. a pool on the lower tier with slides for both adults and children, plus that in February there were no adult slides, in November there were already and in winter it will generally be super.
The main SEA, a beautiful view from the cliff, a reef, an entrance to the sea from three pontoons, a small entry for children, but you can swim in corals and at high tide. The third extreme pontoon at high tide under water up to the shin, corals will come in handy. Caution on this sunken pontoon, fish surgeons, they do not swim above the pontoon, but next to it above the sand-coral, the main thing is not to flirt with it.
We went to the beach until 07-30, you can take a place, the shadow moves at different angles during the day, but you can find a place, move the same sunbeds. In winter, after 14:00, the shadow descends on the beach and reef, but it does not interfere with swimming. The most buzz in the morning until 08-30, there are a lot of fish, sunlight penetrates into the very depths of the Red Sea, there are no interfering fifth points above the water.
Shops nearby, 7 minutes at a quiet pace, there are fruits, and pharmacies and a market, 15 minutes from the Il Mercato area
Meals: plus in comparison with February, the presence of 3 a la carte restaurants: Mexican (on the territory of a neighboring 4 * hotel, very interesting, a car from the reception takes it there, the food is normal, not spicy, fish - on the seashore, also normal, and a grill house , which we didn’t go to due to the fact that you can dine there from 13 to 15, it is located on the beach, which is very convenient.
Food indicative menu.
Breakfast - scrambled eggs, scrambled eggs, boiled eggs, vegetables, feta cheese, fruits, yogurt, muesli, pastries, cheese (Gouda or Emmental, really unusual for Egypt), local sausage, made toasts with cheese).
Lunch (main restaurant) I write the whole layout, but at lunch 2 or 3 meats are always, as an option fish, I just write a 7-day ration of everything that was for the rest
French fries always, baked potatoes in foil /, pasta (make different versions of pasta), different rice, couscous, legumes, vegetables, salads
Lula kebab, burger cutlets, minced meat casseroles (pasta or eggplant), chicken curry pieces, chicken with vegetables, roast, battered chicken, grilled chicken, battered fish, deep-fried fish (sea, local, not pangasius).
Grill House restaurant - 2-3 types of meat kebab, cutlet, chicken (legs) on the grill, rice, pasta, fish 1 type, very convenient sometimes, so as not to leave the beach
Dinner - all of the above + beef steaks, stewed beef, cut beef into pieces from a large shank, crabs 1 time, stuffed quail, stuffed chicken breast, turkey, ala shawarma (take pita in the bread department, sauce and voila, when everything is already tired worthy option), we also took 2 types of sauces from home with us - for example, mayonnaise-tomato, mushroom, cheese and the food ceases to be boring.
I advise? Yes, it's my second time, my friend is the first, I was very impressed by the beach, there is where to walk, places can be found in a place where the sun never hits)))

After the summer fat Black Sea jellyfish, we decided to go to have a normal rest. My wife and I watched a lot of video reviews and a bunch of reviews.

My wife and I watched a lot of video reviews and a bunch of reviews. In the end, the choice fell between St. George 4* and Dreams.
We chose Dreams (1 line).
Evaluation by 10 points.
1. The work of the travel agency went with us - 6-7 points. I didn’t like the optionality of the employee who they themselves called back 4 times on various issues, to which they themselves promised to give an answer at a predetermined time.

2. Flight Azur - 8 points, good, on time, the plane is cramped.

3. Transfer from the airport - 7 points. Landing was at 6-30 in the morning, we arrived at the hotel at 0.30. We sat on the plane for 20 minutes, then border control, etc. , and around the time people, including us, bought a Vodafone chip. Only 1 guy was selling there, with paperwork it took about 7 minutes per person. People, it makes no sense, it’s better to come to the hotel and normally buy without a queue!

4. First impressions - 9 points.
We clearly understood where we were going, and it is surprising in some reviews that for people the news is that the check-in is at 1.00, that there will be bags on the street, that the bracelet is given at 1.30, that the drinks are from 1.00. I listened to a friend and I advise everyone who has an early arrival close to have bathing gear in their bags, we changed clothes in the WC lobby and went for a walk. Everything was very strange for us: we searched for heating, we didn’t find it, later we found out that the heating works from 15.12, well, the main thing is the SEA , a beautiful view from the cliff, the reef, and when I dived, I forgave all the minor shortcomings.
And the first walk, swimming just before 1.00 were. They came for dinner. I saw what All-inclusive is. There is a smell of the kitchen, there is a lot of different food, there are mini queues everywhere, the staff is in most norms, some are tired. I breathe evenly for food. I liked it, it drives the cub too)).

5. Settlement - 8 points. Even upon receipt of the bracelet gave $ 10.
Asked for a better room.
He underlined something in his statement, and when they came for the card, he reminded me that I was his friend, he remembered)
I don’t know if this was good or not, they settled in building 36, the room was normal, everything worked, the plumbing was in very good condition, there was no mold. Cleaned the staff every other day, gave a dollar. We decided that it's better, every day, but in vain. (I did not see a vacuum cleaner rug in the room). In general, the room is normal: water, bathrobes, coffee, etc. were given to change, the staff is friendly.

6. Meeting with the guide 5 points. Even as soon as the bus started moving from the airport, the girl began obsessively buzzing about the importance of meeting with the guide. As novice tourists, we were inspired and at 0.40 we were at the collection point.
I recommend: a maximum of 1 person goes to hear about excursions and insurances.
They offer Cairo for $75 (no visa), three bays for $80, quads for $20-25. It was annoying that only they were buzzing, the rest were atstoy.
As a result, we went to the white island and Masmukhamed for $ 35 + 15 for a scuba gear for a child.
I think that those who count money go to this hotel. I don't know if they really offer a higher quality of service than others. Here everyone counts. The fact that Cairo is 4 hours away is a lie. 7 hours is real. Who is going to the pyramids recommend immediately at the airport to buy a visa. From the Sinai to Africa is needed. How much it costs is not clear from 15 to 30. Friends from Anex offer $ 30.

7. Sea - 10 points. Those who have never been like us will be delighted. Unrealistic transparency, color well, and what kind of fish.

8. Beach - it is not clear how much to bet. I definitely recommend buying corals, it is convenient to walk on a pontoon (slippery, long), there is no sand anywhere, stones, corals or small stones, but this is not sand. I was a little annoyed by the lifeguard who whistles when leaving the bridge for 50 m.
Ushatanye chaise lounges namely mattresses on them. My wife went to take seats at 7-30.
If you come to 10 places there will be no, and after 11 they appear again. After 1.00 the shadow descends to the beach and does not interfere with reef swimming.
Bottom line: I recommend going to rest in this hotel, everyone sees what they want. We are positive.
Anyone who wants perfect cleanliness is not here.
Its main advantage is its own beach, reef, beautiful territory.
Cons: old beach infrastructure.
The rest is normal.

I believe that hotels in the Sultan for 100.000 UAH for two are better))

Flying on the sea in winter is always cool, we love the sea and the sun! We focused on beautiful fish. We chose the Dreams beach hotel, it is on the first line, the reef here really turned out to be magnificent! First of all, I want to say that the hotel is not for a tourist who expects good food and perfect cleanliness. He's a bit of a "walker". But the territory is large, beautiful and green. Our room was after renovation, there is no mold anywhere, the bed is white, towels too. There are some minor bugs, but everything was clean enough. They asked for cleaning every day, cleaned and changed towels only after request.
Kitchen. . . It's not 5, let's just say, you won't stay hungry, there are always fresh vegetables, meat, eggs. Of course, you will have to wait for scrambled eggs in the morning, and it’s better with your eyes closed, because, frankly, hardly anyone washes the pans. Coffee - instant, juices - UPI, alcohol - nonsense. Beer and wine tolerable.
Separately, from 10-12 you can sign up for dinner at three restaurants on the territory, we managed to visit the fish restaurant - we really liked it. It is on the shore - this is a special atmosphere, the fish is cooked divinely tender and tasty (we had calamari and squid). They also served salad with sauce, crab soup and sweets, we really liked it!
Beach. For the sake of it, we went and for the sake of coral, you can close your eyes to the shabby sunbeds that have always been, by the way. The beach is large and comfortable. Sunset on pontoons, there is one small beach for children.
The staff is friendly and pleasant. Every evening there was an interesting entertainment program.
Guide from Anex travel agency rude! This is for a separate comment, probably! After meeting him, you feel that you are a filthy turd who came to Egypt without money and at every turn, without his goodwill, you will be stolen or eaten by sharks!
All in all, I would recommend this hotel! We really enjoyed!

Some moments are difficult to divide into pros and cons, because what is a plus for some may be a minus for others. Large territory. It was a plus for us. We love to walk. In addition, the presence of a large territory near the hotel allows you to place several large pools, water slides, fountains, there is where to walk when you just got tired of eating, drinking, swimming, lying down : ) For those who like to go down to the restaurant by elevator directly from the room (conditionally) and immediately after two steps to be on the beach - this is not the case. … More ▾ Some moments are difficult to divide into pros and cons, because what is a plus for some may be a minus for others.
Large territory. It was a plus for us. We love to walk. In addition, the presence of a large territory near the hotel allows you to place several large pools, water slides, fountains, there is where to walk when you just got tired of eating, drinking, swimming, lying down : )
For those who like to go down to the restaurant by elevator directly from the room (conditionally) and immediately after two steps to be on the beach - this is not the case.
The territory is looked after: flower bushes are planted, beautiful flower beds using multi-colored stones, trees and bushes are trimmed, watered, etc.
In addition to the main restaurant, only the grill bar worked additionally, which you could go to during lunch and, by appointment, for dinner. Also in theory there is an a la carte Mexican restaurant. We didn't go there, so I can't say anything about it.
On the territory there is also a Bedouin corner, a fish restaurant, a refrigerated chest for ice cream, but all this did not work. Although we were proudly told that the hotel was 100% full and that there were 1620 guests at that time. Why, in this case, half of the existing infrastructure does not work is a question.
Rooms. Once upon a time, they were probably decent, but now they look shabby - peeled wooden surfaces of beds, bedside tables, tables, rust on plumbing, etc. They say that there are rooms after renovation, but, apparently, we were unlucky, we were in building 38. The second room, occupied by our family, had a crack in the bathroom, which oozed brown liquid when stepped on, and there was no cold water in the shower. No one would repair it with us, they would offer to change the room at best, and it was important for us that both rooms were nearby. Therefore, for fear of being in different parts of the hotel, we put up with it and everyone went to the shower in one room, which, of course, was our personal choice, but you must admit, this is the situation with the plumbing in the hotel, which is declared as 5 stars, even Egyptian, not OK - right?
Room cleaning consisted of adding a bottle of water and tucking the top sheet on the bed under the mattress. Although the latter was just for me superfluous. I myself neatly folded everything on the bed in the morning. so that there was no mess in the room, and after refueling, the cleaner had to pull the sheet out from under the mattress every time with difficulty. At the same time, wipe the dust on the surfaces - it was not included in the cleaning plan in any way. Despite the chocolates and the dollar left, even the obviously dirty little towel was never replaced, although it was already unambiguously lying on the bathroom floor, but each time it was only "carefully" lifted from the floor and hung on the dryer.
A separate topic is the ANEX Tour employee working at the hotel. In principle, of course, it has nothing to do with the hotel itself, but since this hotel is mainly populated by tourists from Ukraine and the Russian Federation, it is worth mentioning it. If you want to feel like a nonentity - go to a meeting with a guide from ANEX Tour at this hotel. The essence of his story in a nutshell was that if we, the rogues, arrived at the hotel, having paid only $ 500 from the nose, then sit and do not blather, and if you want service and an excellent attitude towards yourself, then go to Rixos for 5000 c. u. The fact that our flight from Kharkov was postponed several times and as a result was delayed for 10 hours, during which they also managed to freeze without giving any explanation, that at some point it even began to seem that we became one of those "lucky ones" , who did not wait for their departure, and as a result of such a flight delay, they stole from us, in fact, a whole day of rest out of seven, this representative of the tour operator said almost verbatim: “Yes, everything is fine, we have the right to 12 hours there- transfer flights here. " And all this, mind you, is not in response to some claims made by tourists, but simply in the form of information from the guide at the meeting. It's nice, isn't it?
Any facts, including accomplished ones, can be presented in completely different ways. For example, it was not worth anything for the same guide to say something like: "Guys, you probably read the reviews before choosing this hotel and understood that this is the so-called" budget five ". Therefore, be indulgent to some imperfections in service in this the flight was delayed due to weather conditions and we will do our best to make your stay here excellent and you will forget this unpleasant beginning of the holiday. " Just. But no. It was necessary to "stomp" on the guests of the hotel. Perhaps this particular person asserts himself in this way, or maybe this is the policy of the entire ANEX Tour.
About the queues in the restaurant and the sluggishness of the waiters who serve food, enough has already been written in previous reviews, I will not repeat myself. There was a choice in food: several types of side dishes, chicken, beef, fish. As for the goodies, opinions were divided even in our family. I enjoyed it, my husband didn't. Drinks, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic, are terrible, with the exception of wine in the main restaurant, and beer.
The main advantage for us - which, in fact, this hotel was chosen in the first place, was a fabulously beautiful reef with all its inhabitants, and the absence of wind, which was more important for us than food, drinks and new furniture in the rooms. But it would be nicer if all this was present in this hotel in the aggregate, but this, alas, is not the case.

They will begin their review with the fact that on board the Azur airline's aircraft, the flight attendant manually collected crumbs or food leftovers with a napkin, as passengers who had just boarded the aircraft had already begun to complain about the garbage.

There is very little space, the plane is tired.
The check-in was disappointing, we expected that there could be difficulties, but not to this extent. We were forced to wait until 14.00, despite the fact that we arrived at the hotel at 8. I think it’s not worth talking about the fact that we were not offered breakfast, even considering that on the last day we left at 4 in the morning, respectively, before breakfast. There is no room for storing things and changing clothes, you can go to the toilet and somehow adapt to change clothes. Luggage is left outside under the sun until the check-in. Unfortunately, towels are also not issued upon arrival (since they are only in the room), that is, we did not consider the option to go to the sea.
The hotel staff feel sorry for the drinks, as bracelets can only be received at 10.30. Until then, no one will even give water or coffee.
The Internet is very weak or simply non-existent.
The territory is large, but it seemed to me that there was little greenery and, accordingly, there was little shade from this.
Nutrition
Our first lunch on the day of check-in was just a shock, as people stand at the Doors 15 minutes before opening.
The restaurant is always and at all distributions of the queue or there is no staff who could serve. The quality of the food seems to be good, but because of the queues, the impression is greatly spoiled. There was no seafood. At breakfast, you can stand in line for an omelet for 25 minutes, jams and butter are hidden behind the counter, there are no olives (Fruits also need to be interrogated, vegetables are stale and cut carelessly.
Similar queues at the bar during breakfast / lunch and dinner.
Food is served in very small portions, often you have to ask for supplements, such as a spoonful of yogurt or another piece of sausage. The staff updates the assortment slowly and goes to the kitchen when necessary, can calmly turn around in front of the vacationer and ignore any requests and comments.
There is no ice cream, pizza at the pool is a shame for the hotel, they serve it from 16-17. Again the queue, then pick up plates, napkins, etc. They give out only two tiny pieces per person, it is pointless to ask for the whole family or company.
Beach and sea
The sea is excellent, if not for the guy (lifeguard) who whistles all the time so that they don’t swim to the coral reef and swim far. But it is outrageous that "far away" is considered the next pontoon of the same hotel. And there is not enough space for all vacationers to swim near the stairs and we often touch each other, it would not hurt to install another staircase, of course. During our stay, 2 pontoons were opened, at "rush hour" there were even queues for the entrance stairs. I want to note that this ladder is rather uncomfortable and for some people it may even be problematic to use it. Be sure to take coral boats with you, as the pontoons are slippery.
There seem to be enough sunbeds on the beach, but people take a few in the morning, and they themselves come after breakfast or later, so you have to fight for good places. There is no music and animation on the beach.
Sun loungers by the pool are popular in the afternoon, when the sea is already in the shade from the rock, and the pool is still sunny. But finding a free sunbed will be problematic if you prudently left your thing to take it in the morning, be prepared to say goodbye to it. Firstly, by the time you arrived, the sun lounger was already occupied (no one is stopped by other people's things). And secondly, things can be stolen (or tried), unfortunately I personally felt this from my own experience. I was lucky I returned my thing, but it was a matter of chance, someone may not be lucky. They also steal towels from the balconies on the first floors.
Maintenance and service
The cleaning of the rooms is very mediocre, the towels have never been changed in a week, they just folded neatly and that's it. Beach towels are changed after calling the reception, and then you should not expect that someone will immediately come running. We called twice and no one came, the next day we ran after the cleaner and asked to change.
Porters are a separate issue for me in general, since on the day of arrival we have 2 rooms in the first one, he brought a bag and began to demand a dollar, not just hint politely, but to demand and extort. But the most epic was when I gave 2 chocolates to him (of course he took them) just out of the kindness of his heart, but he still continued to demand his dollar and did not help me (the girl) lift my suitcase to the 2nd floor! turned around and left. It was complete trash.
A lot has been written about the service in the restaurant, but the guys are trying and doing the job to the best of their ability and ability.
At night, when we were leaving, we hardly interrogated someone to take the bags from the house, they called the reception several times. When they handed over the key, they immediately cut off the bracelets and no one gives drinks at the bar, they didn’t even let them into the toilet right away. The final stage of your stay at the hotel was completely ruined, the hotel workers are specifically doing everything possible so that you do not come back here. Does the hotel really get poorer from a glass of theirs and so not very tasty coffee? By the way, we made our own coffee in the room, since there is a kettle.
The animation was not like that, the show saw one thing and then accidentally heard it and another evening was karaoke. Perhaps she was, but there was no information or schedule about this anywhere. There are games in the pool, I didn’t participate in them so I spent more time at sea. The pool is kicked out at 5 o'clock, and that's it, there's nothing else to do in the hotel.
Note to future vacationers in this hotel, check the number of towels in the room, including beach ones, if you don’t have enough at check-out, they will make you pay, we had such a situation. And then you can’t prove that there were 2 small ones in the room, and 2 large towels were not provided to people from the day of arrival.
