Very good location in the bay. Beach with sand and small pebbles. In the morning the water is calm, like on some kind of forest lake. There are practically no waves during the day, except perhaps from boats with parachutes, bananas, pills, etc.
Lots of free sunbeds. On the beach, no one gets it, except for the crows. No tattoos, no discos, no excursions. . . Complete relaxation.
At sea, at 10-12m. from the shore, in the grass I saw snakes sleeping peacefully at the bottom, 1.5-2 meters long. Haven't seen this before. I thought it seemed... No, they are twisted, sleeping... The staff on the beach said that it was "normal", "they always sleep during the day. " Well, let them sleep on.
The corals are in the bay to the left of the hotel. Almost at the exit from the bay, next to the elevator tower of some hotel (it is clearly visible from the beach). You can swim in flippers for 20 minutes or go through 3-4 hotels along the coast on foot (there is a lot of garbage along the way on the beaches, it is better to swim this distance). A very beautiful place, a lot of all kinds of fish near a sheer wall of corals. The water here is clean and clear, the bottom is clearly visible.
There are a lot of cats on the territory of the hotel, everyone eats. Even bread.
Food - with variety for their "crisis" is very good. Previously, of course, it was much better (I compare it with meat dishes at the Iber Hotel "Medinat Makadi Saraya" in Hurghada in 2009. )
There is ice cream. Chips with nuts at the bar.
From drinks I recommend "Gin and tonic" and beer.
Fruits bought in the market, 5 minutes of a very leisurely walk from the hotel. Prices have dropped on. . .
The pool is not needed at all, the sea is next to the rooms. No tiring steps and stairs to the beach.
Service is not bad, give the waiter $1-2 and everything will be fine. They clean the rooms well.
Music is live every evening.
The hotel is well maintained, everything is nice and clean.
The people in the hotel were originally 30 people, then added, but not significantly. There were no Russians at all. There were Germans and Italians and Ukrainians. Some kind of Kyrgyz or Kazakhs came, in short, everyone was wearing hats. To some symposium of believers. . .
There are NO tourists on the streets at all.
Many hotels have simply closed.
Arabs practically do not call to shops and do not get them, as it used to be on the streets. Looks like they're tired of doing it.
Disliked in the hotel:
*** bed in the room. With a large percentage of synthetics in the fabric. Steam specifically.
*** sea in the area of parking of pleasure boats. Lots of trash at the bottom. Plastic, ropes, chains, bags, tires. . .
If you want peace and tranquility, then this is the place for you.
I recommend the hotel. If I have a chance, I will come here again.
Yes, not cheap for Egypt, but this is one of the best hotels in my 10 trips here.
P. S. Flight with "Azur Air" - the seats on the plane are very uncomfortable, they practically do not fold out. It seems that they added 4-5 more rows of seats in the cabin.
They'll probably have standing room soon.
In flight, they do not feed at all, only drinks: water or coffee and tea. Of course, you can buy everything on board the plane for $10-20.
So take food with you from home if you want to eat. The same on the way back.
