Everything is honest and in order. We rested with my wife in January. Settlement is fast enough. Although we left the suitcase at the entrance to the hotel, and we ourselves hung in the bar for an hour and a half as soon as we received the bracelets. Then one Arab showed us to the room, and after 10-15 minutes the second brought a suitcase. Naturally, each of them waited and received their tips. It was evident that the scheme worked out. Room for 3+. First floor with small terrace. The latch of the door to the terrace did not work, they called, they did it in 15 minutes. TV 3 Russian channels. Cleaned daily for a dollar, a good boy tried. Two bottles of water were provided in the room every day. The territory is large, but somehow... Greenery could be more. Like someone, everything is sparse and not completed to the end. By the way, this can be seen immediately upon arrival, the hotel sign is faded and miserable, the same on the beach. The beach is large enough, two pontoons. But again, "but" - the beach is designed for two hotels Island and Garden as many people as ants. After 9 o'clock the seats are tight. There is something to see in the sea and corals and fish, beautiful lagoons to the left of the left pantone. On the beach from 11 o'clock snacks, french fries, meat (soy) cutlets, sausages, beer, water, drinks like "Jupi". More serious drinks and snacks march to the main restaurant. The food was not hungry, but we wanted specific food in 2-3 days of our soups, meatballs, dumplings. There were no culinary delights, culinary shows, as we saw in other hotels. For meat, omelettes and the truth that they write you must stand in line with a plate, I did not stand. The waiters in the restaurant work well with a tip of $ 2-3 worn like crazy bringing alcohol, etc. drinks, desserts in unlimited quantities. The same friendliness in the pool bars, but in the event that you pay a little extra. Pools 4, one heated, water slides. There is one so-called "quiet pool" where there is no animation, music, vacationers with children are not allowed, and around the age group, mostly Europeans doze off, sleep, read.
In the evening you can take a walk in SOHO, but a lot has already been written about this and you can watch video clips in youtube. Location from the airport 10 min drive. Neighboring hotels are Savoy on the right, Concord, Hilton, Savita on the left.
Vacationers are approximately - 40% of Russians, 30% of Ukrainians, there are Balts, Poles, Germans...

Will we go again to this hotel - probably not, it painfully resembles our noisy domestic, albeit a classy boarding house. We have something to compare with - it was our tenth anniversary trip to Sharm El Sheikh.
The 5 star hotel does not pull at all. Well, a good 3+ or 4 with a minus.
