We arrived at the NEW TOWER hotel at about 24:00, met at the hotel normally - each with a glass of jupi-juice, but the promised dinner is still brought to the room - the service does not lag behind the "savkovo". We decided not to go to bed right away, we really wanted to take a walk to the shore. It wasn’t there - you won’t go to the water in the evening, because the beach is guarded by dogs of about 4-5 individuals of thoroughbred German shepherds, honestly - this is the first time I’ve met this, only barbed wire is missing for a complete composition.
In general, evening walks by the sea are cancelled.

In the morning we had breakfast, by the way, the food was below average. Various bread cakes (that is, it looks like a cake, but it tastes like “sliced ​ ​ loaf”) for dinner, and as a rule, trimmings from “what was left there yesterday? " on breakfast. Restaurant "et-ta. . kind of Italian? "only one.

The restaurant is similar to Italian only in that there is a specially dedicated person who, right in the hall, prepares really tasteless pasta in tomato sauce and more or less in mushroom sauce from just two types of sauces, I warn you “do not sprinkle with cheese ! ! ! ” – this is only for lovers of goat cheese. Otherwise, the usual 3 * dining room. The fish restaurant is paid (and there is no one-time free dinner - as indicated in the prospectus) and indeed it was always closed, there are no other restaurants except for the “Italian dining room”, so it’s better to go to Naama Bay for seafood delicacies.

After breakfast we went straight to the beach. From the left of our beach, a panoramic view of a very large wasteland - now there is just an “ideal trash can” (on the way to the beach, going down the stairs, it will always please your eye), I think that soon they will start building some kind of hotel there, so who like construction noise in the near future, you can go to the NEW TOWER.
The hotel beach is not very big; You can go to the beach along the territory of the hotel, go down the stairs, I don’t remember exactly - about 85 steps, cross the road and we are on the beach. On the beach in the oasis "do not go! ! ! "- there are enclosures with dogs. Towels do not need to be dragged from the pool - on the beach you can get / pass them - by exchanging them for cards. There are enough sun loungers on the beach, although the terrain is rocky and good places (with a beautiful view) are taken in advance. All sunbeds have dirty mattresses, which are covered with no less dirty towels received - then you will wash in the sea. The beach has two pontoons, a local boat moored to one of them - it’s better not to swim near this pontoon because it stinks of gasoline and the taste on the lips is far from salty sea water. The reef is very deep, about 25-30m.
depth, - can be good for diving at depths of more than 25m. , but I'm not sure what will be interesting for diving to a depth of 10m. , I didn’t dive on this reef - it’s better not to waste time / money and immediately go to Tiran Island, or even better Ras Mohammed, it will really cost less than on the beach and more fun. It will not be very interesting for snorkeling here, of course, the depth of the reef is immediately impressive - but nothing more, half of the corals are simply dead, respectively, there are also few fish, plus another part of them just went into the depths. So a deep reef is not always good.


The room was cleaned for the whole stay, once - the day after our arrival, and the left dollar does not help here. i. e.
they put things in order, they fold the bed, but they never swept it, towels are changed every day, but asphalt-colored towels and swans are twisted again from dirty towels, if you want to get white and clean, you need to go to the reception and ask for a replacement - then there are clean towels. There were times when they forgot to put toilet paper - and again we go to the reception.
We didn’t get to meet with the hotel guide - we took a tour in the city, it just happened to be at this time, it seems to be very insulting for him. He just didn't talk to us until I bought a couple of tours from him.
In general, the service in the hotel does not pull on 4 *. NEW TOWER is a real trio.
Separately, I put a minus for the work of the tour operator TEZ TOUR:
Departure due to the volcanic eruption was postponed for more than 12 hours, they were supposed to take off at 6:20 but actually took off after 18:00.
A big minus for the tour operator (TEZ TOUR) - they could take care of their tourists and provide a place to relax, keep people for so long at the airport - this is a mockery.
