We went together with a guy, we can say that the rest went off without a hitch, the tour operator was the tour operator.
We arrived early in the morning, check-in as everywhere else only after 14 hours. At the reception, you can ask to immediately put on the bracelet, leave things in the storage room, change clothes and start relaxing, which we actually did. Of course, you can agree for money to settle earlier, but for such a service they demanded $ 50.
I liked the hotel as a whole, a small minus is the second line, but if you adapt, you can take a bus from the beach and to the beach (it goes back and forth once an hour). On the beach from 11 o'clock you can eat fast food (pizza, hot dog, french fries, a couple of salads), there is no alcohol on the beach, only soft drinks. A big plus is self-service for soft drinks both on the beach and in the hotel. From drinks there is fanta, sprite, cola, ordinary water, water with gas, near the relax pool there is also iced tea and hibiscus.
The location of the hotel is good, if you go out through the reception to the street and walk to the left for 10 minutes - there is a small market where you can buy souvenirs, you can also buy excursions there (cheaper than from a tour operator). Near the bazaar there is a Tajmahal night club, where animation offers trips for $35 (from 11 am to 2 am), but in general the entrance to the club costs $ 25 and you can independently regulate the time spent in the club. If you want to go to the Nama Bay entertainment center, there is a free bus from the hotel, it runs 2 times a day in the morning and in the evening, you can find out the schedule at the reception and sign up for a trip. The so-called old city (the Old Market is also called) is also not far from the hotel - four of us got there by taxi for $ 2, back for $ 3. They say that souvenirs are the cheapest to buy there, but you definitely need to bargain anyway, so how the original price is at least 3 times higher, and if one does not give in, then there will still be another shop in which the seller is more accommodating, especially if you take a lot of goods. There is also a fruit bazaar, a delicious mango was bought for $ 2 per kg.
The rooms are all the same, the only difference is the location, we lived not far from the reception on the ground floor overlooking the desert, at first we were upset, then we thought that we were only in the room to spend the night and reconciled. It turned out that the noisiest rooms overlook the large pool, as there is evening animation and loud music plays until 12 am. The animation is mediocre, the performances are boring in the evening, it is only interesting to watch the show - the Egyptian night (the local team is invited), I also liked it when our hotel was invited to the evening in Shores Aloha, their animation is more groovy, although it consists only of Italians who do not understand Russian.
The variety of fish and corals in the sea is good, even the moray eel lives, it is not aggressive, but it is interesting to watch it when it swims.
The food is good, varied, everything is delicious, there are a lot of fruits, pastries are beyond praise, and very tasty bread. From meat there is always chicken, delicious stewed beef, grilled kebab in the evening near the pool. A small minus, I think that tea and coffee in the dining room is only for breakfast, the rest of the time you can find it nowhere else in the bar near the relax pool, another minus, this soup is only for dinner and only one kind per day. From alcoholic drinks in the dining room there is only beer and white / red wine only for lunch and dinner. Rum, whiskey, gin and vodka are only open at the bar by the large pool until 12 at night, by the way, after 12 at night it is not possible to find any liquid at all, since the devices with cola / fanta / sprite and coolers are turned off. Water was also not provided upon arrival, the minibar was empty.
In general, I liked the rest, I recommend the hotel, if there is an opportunity and desire to relax on the first line, as an option there are hotels of the same Shores Aloha 4 and Shores Amforas 5 chain.
The contingent is different, there are many young people, Russians, Poles, Belarusians, Ukrainians - such a post-Soviet hodgepodge, there were also Latvians, Scots, British, Italians, a little bit of everyone.
