Traveled with two families. First impressions did not disappoint. It didn’t take long to check in, while we were having dinner, we picked up rooms nearby, a convenient location, although not near the sea - the place is good, not far from the beach, there are two pools nearby. The room has everything you need. Cleaning the room could have been better, but swans and crocodiles were played regularly, but they forgot to leave water a couple of times, although we left the dollar regularly. No insects were noticed, only nimble lizards ran under the balcony. From mosquitoes, take fumigators and how to spray, but unlike ours, their bites are not felt and do not itch.
I really liked the territory, everything is well-groomed, a lot of flowers, pretty bridges, lanterns.
Outside the territory there is also where to walk. Not far from the r. c. "Thousand and One Nights", shopping streets, s / market, and st. El Mercato.

Well, the food is rather good than excellent, because it does not differ in variety, although there are a lot of things and fruits and desserts, but the meat is a little and not always chewed, well, yes, there is chicken, fish (sometimes nothing like that). A lot of vegetables, juices, milk for breakfast... But for lunch and dinner, the waiter brings drinks and at first it was already eaten, but they didn’t offer us drinks, then they really corrected themselves, or they began to notice in time. For breakfast, the pastries are delicious, in short, they didn’t see the hungry and they themselves weren’t.
Sea. There is a reef and a very good one, the fish are also diverse. Pontoons - well, if it's a little stormy, it's better to walk with support, and garbage has accumulated on the right pontoon for more than one week. And near the shore you can’t go far without shoes, but there are enough for children, and the fish swim right by the shore. The water was warm all this time, a very comfortable temperature, it’s not scary to take a dip right away, and it’s already November-December! Lots of pools.
Beaches. There are several of them, we tried almost all of them, we could clean up better, gobies and straws from cocktails in the sand. On the 29th, the bartender changed at the Rock bar and we found out that we, Slavs, are second-class people, before that there was another one - friendly and smiling, but a disgruntled type came, such that he didn’t want to approach, always busy, turns away and studies with our own affairs, and we came up mainly for juices, one of us came up for brandy only once, the second time he offered him a bottle for five dollars. Moreover, the British himself wore cocktails to the trestle bed, we spat and changed the beach. Later, when he met us, he smiled intensely...
Towels are provided by the beach and by the upper pools, so you don't have to carry them back and forth.
Of the restaurants visited Italian. Not bad, but they charged $40 for local champagne. Nonsense champagne.
Excursions. Flying, diving, swimming. In addition to the submarine, I liked everything, it was not impressive, just right for children, everything that we saw there is near the hotel reefs. I liked the evening cruise on the VIP - yacht, fun, artists - class, the team too, the mood of the holiday. A friend's birthday was celebrated in such a wonderful way.
The artists invited during our vacation did not like our undemanding taste, we are not the first time in Egypt, amateur performances. Lots of loud music, long waits and short performances.

But in general, the experience of the hotel is quite positive. There are many families with children, there are funiculars from top to bottom, there is no need to walk up the ladders, there are also paths without ladders.
Oh yes, the girls from Pegasus, well, they are there to gather everyone upon arrival and tell how bad it is to take excursions on the street, but not from them.
On the day of departure, the plane was in the evening, the bracelets were not removed, we could drink in bars, dine. And I want to go home and I don’t want to leave. The weather did not disappoint, it was windy for three days, and then in the afternoon. Happy holidays everyone!
