Rested family (3 people) from 07/09/11 to 07/21/11. The hotel, in principle, is not super-duper, but very personal. It was the first time in Egypt. Before that they were in Turkey, Montenegro. Service to Turkey, of course, does not reach, but if you go for a vacation, and not for a show off, then it’s quite worthy. One sea is worth something. Every day you will see something new. You can say there is animation, though I didn’t have enough patience to watch a belly dance for an hour, for example. There was a fire show - this is a class. always in a good mood, active, sporty, cheerful. The contingent of vacationers is motley - 50x50 Russian-speaking and the rest of the world's population. True (maybe it just happened to us), as I understand it, they have a type of "weekend package" for the local population - Friday, Saturday, Sunday, of course, added a little discomfort. I have not seen any of ours or Europeans to "eat" like that. They recruited as if for a hungry year in advance, and then left 50% in plates - wild people, like gypsies. Especially when their women in clothes climbed into the pool - the Europeans got out. Although I didn't care - swimming in a pool with a water temperature of 40 did not give me the slightest pleasure, the sea - that's what I came for. In terms of nutrition - you will not be hungry, that's for sure (there were no lobsters). The staff is good-natured, friendly, although the hotel is focused on Italians - we did not feel any discomfort in this regard. As for excursions - it's like everywhere else - the tourist who is not on....is bad. We swam on a boat with a transparent bottom (90 USD / person) - not bad, of course, but the red price of this excursion is 30-40 USD / person. ATVs are also good, if you do not listen to the "counselor" who leads the chain like chickens. Not far from the hotel there is a complex "1000 and 1 night". It is very beautiful there, there is something to see and where to take pictures. Entrance 5 dollars / person. 18 USD / person - entrance and performance in two parts (1 part - the history of Egypt (you can watch), 2 part - 3 hours of belly dancing (I had the patience for 10 minutes). 35 USD / person - entrance, performance and dinner (this option we we didn’t consider it because we ate our fill in the hotel) Yes, by the way, the Internet is paid there (10 dollars / 3 hours - a madhouse), but on the beach (only in one place) near the volleyball field there was a free Internet (I don’t know where, even the animators were surprised. In a nearby hotel, the Internet is also paid).
In general, the rest was excellent, we got tanned, we saw the underwater world, we got to know the Arabic flavor.
