We rested together with a girl for 15 days through the Sanmar travel agency (or CoralTravel, they work together), the flight was through the city of Cairo, as a result of which a 10-hour bus ride awaited us), but oh well, the review is not about the ride, but about the hotel.
We checked into the hotel at about 12 o'clock in the morning, despite the fact that the check-in as usual is from 14-00, they settled us within 15 minutes absolutely free of charge, thanks to the reception for this. It is worth noting separately that the receptionists work perfectly, they will always help, they will prompt you on any issue, almost everyone understands Russian well, or they explain everything in Russian-English, which basically suits me. Special thanks to Ghallab Abuensr, the person is always positive. Even at the inadequate requests of our drunken compatriots (you can write a separate article about inadequate tourists from the CIS) they always try to help. Their patience and perseverance are commendable!
The room was provided with two beds, although they asked for one double.

But the cleaner guy on the same day quickly built one out of it. The young guy was cleaned every day, for diligence they left him $ 1-2. Cleaned well, every day fresh towels, wet cleaning.

Food for four with a small minus. I don't think picky eaters will like it. Only beef was deliciously prepared from meat, but unfortunately it was only a couple of times. Fish and chicken are not cooked very well, everything is in oil and not very tasty. Soups, with what we used to call soups, there is also little in common. Very tasty pastries, desserts, buns - delicious (local Arabs collected 8-10 of them). Fruits were melon and watermelon. At first, the melon was served green and unripe, I didn’t really understand why this was served at all. But then a sweet melon appeared and the problem disappeared.
Bar, of course. Local alcohol of low quality, diluted. All its varieties (rum, tequila, whiskey, bourbon) are about the same taste.
Lovers of good alcohol will definitely not go. Beer is also so-so, for some reason I always had a stomach ache after it. They poured beer according to the mood of the bartender, sometimes half a glass of beer, and half the foam - for me, as a beer lover, this is just laughter. Well, drinks are all poured into plastic cups of 200 ml, this is a big minus, I had to constantly run back and forth. I don’t understand why it was impossible to serve glasses at least 0.3 each. However, for those who came to Egypt to thump near the pool, this did not stop (drunken Belarusians who are rude to the staff - this is a tin)
The beach is very small and is shared with another hotel. To get a good place - it is better to come early, or right after lunch. But there is a nearby huge empty beach for as much as $ 5 per person, which you can go to for free through the beach of our hotel (after lunch, the security did not care).
I personally didn’t care about animation, even if it didn’t exist at all, I wouldn’t care at all. But it is worth noting that it is rather weak, compared to nearby hotels, children will probably be bored. Although the animators are Felix, Omar are very funny, they will cheer even the saddest)

The hotel is located almost in the center of Naama Bay, on foot in 15-20 minutes it costs the whole. Be sure to bargain in all the shops, because all the prices for the pale-faced are at least 2-3 times higher and then ad infinitum. The Arabs are very annoying, many do not understand the words "don't", at first it caused great hostility, then - a face with a shovel and reconciled.
The hotel itself is quite budget, so there were no high expectations. The hotel certainly deserves its money. There are some minor flaws, but overall a solid four, I won’t put 5 stars, because there is something to work on.
I would like to wish my compatriots to be more calm, and not to throw out their anger and aggression on the staff, any problem (there were few potatoes, etc. ) can be solved with a calm request.
