Хороший отель, но уже требует реновации Good hotel but needs renovation

We rested from 17.11, in general, we liked everything, we saw a lot of people who come there on the second or third round. The hotel has a good location, 5 minutes walk to El Mercato. There are many shopping arcades, souvenirs, mangoes, spices, perfumes. Beautiful reef. The rooms are no longer new, tired and, in principle, are no different from the rooms in similar 5-ka Sharma.
Settlement
We arrived at 18:10 and were at the hotel at 21:00. We were immediately given bracelets and sent to eat. Then they gave me a number. Our friends were given a room overlooking the pool for free, although we had a reservation for the garden. We were given a room overlooking the wall of another hotel next to the entrance and treatment facilities. We immediately went to the reception, we were offered an alternative for two couples, a number of three rooms, but for four, for free. The room was good, but this option did not suit us. Paid $30 extra for seven nights in a pool view room. It was worth it, good view and location. One minus is the air conditioning which was very loud.

Staff
They are all always sociable, they joke, they have such a mentality and if you are normal with them, then the service will be good. I saw a couple of fat snouts who paid $ 400 for a ticket and behave like kings, it's disgusting to look at, they behaved like cattle. I wouldn’t be surprised that someone just spat into their glass.
The bartenders in the Lobby and on the warm pool are handsome, they made various interesting cocktails, they didn’t fuck off, they brought us at the pool even when we didn’t ask.
We always left a dollar and a chocolate bar, they always cleaned us well, the cleaner was always friendly. And one day he brought us slippers for the room. Bedding and towels, of course, are already in need of replacement, it can be seen that they have already been washed, but they are clean.
In general, be friendly with them, joke around and don't waste a dollar and get good service.
Territory
Beautiful, green, there are three pools, one of them, the top one is open until 20:00 and is heated. The rest until 17:00. At this time of the year, in the evening there are a lot of mosquitoes that bite like hell. Take funds from them with you.
Beach
There is an entry into the sea from the beach, not deep, suitable for swimming with children.
There are a lot of sun beds, but at 9 am it was already difficult to take free ones, people left towels before breakfast. The pontoon is not long, the reef is alive, a lot of fish, very beautiful. Be sure to try diving, there is a diving center near the entrance to the pontoon. Very intelligent guys, they were very pleased, they saw a lot of unusual marine life. One minus the pontoon was being repaired for the first three days and I had to use the pontoon of the neighboring hotel and there was a hell of a crowd.
Nutrition

Everything was delicious, the choice was huge, different grills, there was baked beef, tuna, lamb, grilled crabs, shrimp soup. Large selection of side dishes and vegetables. From fruits pomegranates, persimmons, guava, oranges, bananas, apples in syrup, dates. Sweets are also very tasty. All our guys were satisfied, everyone found what he liked. One minus on the second day I was poisoned by something, temperature, vomiting, frustration. What is not clear, despite this, the impression of the restaurant is still positive. The pool bar had burgers, fries and pizza snacks. The burgers were not very good, and they have a peculiar pizza. Only now our people, like savages, ran everywhere, took turns and piled plates like pigs.
Tours
We did not take excursions from our guide from the TUI company, we listened to his stories about insurance, etc. But he didn't get much after.
We took excursions on the beach, there are guys who have the same license and excursions take place in the same place as from the guides, only cheaper. They took it from a guy named Ramadan, a great guy went quad biking twice, purely by his own separate group of 6 people, the first one met the dawn, but it was a bit dark for riding. The second time the guys went during the day, rode separately, drove at full power.
Diving was taken from him, everything was cool, a lot of impressions. They also learned a lot of useful things from him, where to buy seafood, where to buy alcohol, where duty free is in charm. There, according to the passport, in the first three days after arrival, you can buy good alcohol, and not local, located in Naama Bay.
Taxi
Near the hotel there are taxi drivers who went to Naama Bay for $ 4 one way. Bargain more than $5, it's not worth it.
Animation
Well done guys, especially girls, water aerobics every day, yoga, volleyball, exercises. Show in the evening. The program is certainly not super new, but you can watch the evening. Just don't get fooled, for a trip to a $15 disco. Rare slag, with terrible cocktails for $15 each, and smoky locals.
In general, we were satisfied with the rest, the hotel is not super new, it is clear that a lot needs to be replaced, tired rooms. But we didn't care if the carpet in the room was worn or something. We only slept there, the rest of the time we walked and were at the sea.
I will recommend the hotel.
