The air temperature is 23-30, the water in the pool is 25, the sea is 22. There was a strong wind all the time. I am writing a review for the first time, because emotions after such a "rest" are simply overwhelming. The hotel was chosen thoroughly, since it was far from the first time in Egypt, but now we were traveling with two children (5 years and 6 months).
Now briefly:
The territory is a well-groomed territory from the side of the Royal Wing (cottages), but the entire old part of the territory "gives away the Sovcom of the 70s. " Rating 5 and 3-, total 3+.
The hotel itself is nice, big rooms; friendly staff; linen is changed every day, the size and the presence of a tip do not affect the quality of cleaning. Swans habitual for Egypt made of towels, rose petals and any other room decorations have never been seen for all the time. Grade 5-.
Pools deserve a separate description. Why did no one describe the main pool in their reviews? When we went to him, I was "stupored": there was no smell of a modern building worthy of a 5-star hotel.
It was made primitively: the pit was filled with cement, and inside it was covered with a colored film of polyethylene 2-3 mm thick, and the side surfaces were painted like an ordinary oilcloth "under the mosaic". There is no grass around the pool, as you might think when viewing photos - this is the most common, cheap green carpet. It was glued to everything, too, a concrete base. And now "stretch your imagination, " as Zadornov says. From all the people leaving the pool, the water flows directly onto this cover. This coating has not been changed for many years. Can you imagine what "fragrance" comes from all this? Especially in the evening when the sun goes down. I'm already silent about the hygiene of this facility.
The second pool is executed quite adequately, heated. But! Apparently they were saving again ...on customers. Have you ever seen that in a self-respecting hotel pools were cleaned right in broad daylight, when people swim in it?
And so that water is not chlorinated by automatic machines, as is customary all over the world, but after sunset, sprinkled with chlorine by hand from a bucket? Evaluation of the pools: the first 1+, the second 4; total 3.
Contingent: the first week - Russian-speaking about 30%; the rest are Germans, British, Turks, wealthy Arabs. The second week (children's holidays began) - 90% of Russian-speaking tourists. After this "invasion" (accepted by 4 groups from Nizhny Novgorod and Samara), all the Germans, British and Arabs disappeared from the hotel during the day. Dear post-Soviet space, please study the rules of good manners before leaving your countries. Because it becomes a shame that we speak the same language!
Nutrition. We have never seen food like this! Buffet, where everything is made the same several times. Of course, you can choose something to fill your stomach, but you will not get pleasure from food.
In the Dolphin restaurant, the same fish were laid out on ice in the window for two weeks! Can you imagine what will happen to those who order a dish from such a fish? The menu in all restaurants is almost the same. Only the prices for the same dishes are different. Dinner for one adult will cost about $40. Bottle of water 1.5l $3.0. 33 Hineken $5.5; a glass of their local wine $9; can of Sprite, Pepsi, juice, etc. $3; chips in a small jar $5.
On the very first morning, the eldest daughter "returned" back right in the restaurant all the water that she drank from the cooler there. Then we did not attach any importance to it. On the third day in the morning I woke up with a terrible headache and pain in my stomach - the night before I ate seafood from the grill. After that, we became very careful about food. We noticed that for several days in a row they put out the same bowls with whipped cream, etc. For those who understand Japanese cuisine: sushi!
They put them out on Thursday, and on Friday, a hundred were left - fried and put out with sauce! It was scary to even look at, let alone eat.
2 days before departure, our eldest "pleased" us again: she tore out her entire breakfast 1.5 hours after eating. It is worth saying that the child has never suffered anything like this. Her breakfast is always the same: a small bun with butter and tea. She could no longer drink until the very departure! As soon as she drank even a couple of sips of water, she immediately returned it. Result: two days on a drip in one of the best clinics upon return with a diagnosis of acute gastrointestinal infection. During the day, the child did not eat anything except soup and bread. In the evening - vermicelli without anything, because baby food was completely absent!
On the last evening, the wife was poisoned: she ate boiled rice, beans, stewed fish.
A special mention is their bottled water.
We will never go there again and will not recommend to anyone.
