I really want to make a review about the hotel, because before leaving I read a lot of different conflicting reviews about the hotel.
Upon arrival at the hotel, check-in was quick - it was 6 o'clock. They didn't fill out any questionnaires - they just gave out a key, cards for towels and said the room number. By the time we got to our room, our suitcase was already waiting for us. The room is approximately the same as in the photo tour of the sites - two large single beds (very comfortable) The bathroom was a little embarrassing - apparently they were in a hurry and did not have time to finish it - small flaws with plaster and plastic panels on the ceiling. But be that as it may, everything in the room worked. A room in everyone's favorite fifth building on the first floor overlooking the indoor pool and a piece of the sea. Initially, I wanted to change my room to the 2nd floor or a building closer to the sea - I didn’t want to pay money - I just went to the reception and asked. At the reception, everyone speaks Russian, there are even two Russian girls. I was answered with a duty phrase that they say tomorrow Monday there will be a departure of tourists - tomorrow we will change. On the same evening, having examined the hotel, we decided not to change the room. It is very convenient to leave the terrace - ten meters barefoot on the grass and into the pool. Not a single insect was seen in the room. In general, I would put a four for the number, but you can put a three. The territory of the hotel is quite spacious - which pleased us very green. Not a piece of sand - everything is planted with grass, shrubs, flowers and palm trees. At night, the palm trees and pools are illuminated - very beautiful. We are not big fans of entertainment programs - we went only once to the amphitheater for Arabic dances. Not very impressed - I liked only one dance - the guy did very interesting things with skirts and various objects in continuous rotation for at least half an hour. On other evenings, the amphitheater also showed something - a fire show, dancing, etc. , but we did not go. Of the other types of animation, everything is standard - every day water gymnastics, yoga and a kids club - animators diligently walk along the beach and recruit those who want Children every day went and collected in a kids club. My son is 8 years old - he went once and quickly returned back - he said that he was not very interested. Thus, for the territory I can put five. I don't rate the animation - I can't judge objectively.
What can I say about food - it certainly will not please gourmets. Mostly regular dishes - although varied. Basically, I took grilled dishes on the terrace - grilled chicken and chicken kebab, beef in cutlets and pieces of fish, crabs were constantly caught once. In the very premises of the restaurant, the chef always cuts a turkey or sea fish. In addition, there are a lot of other dishes from the buffet, but I didn’t take anything besides side dishes. Of the salads, I ate only cucumbers and fresh poidory. I did not take anything in marinades. Not a fan of sweets - I can’t rate it, but it seems everything was delicious - a choice of 10-15 types of pastries daily. So you will definitely not stay hungry and do not take incomprehensible salads and hot dishes - there will be no problems with the stomach - we have never had any troubles. Regarding the places in the restaurant and the availability of appliances - they came to eat at different times and never stood without a place - feel free to go to the red or green zones on the sides of the main hall - there are always free tables - if there are no appliances, then at the first request they always brought within a minute. There is a minus - one bar for the entire restaurant - the bartender does not have time and the queue was noticed. The waiters usually asked at the table what you would drink and brought what you order. Of the drinks, we especially didn’t drink anything, I took wine once and once beer - I didn’t like either, so I drank only water and tea. In general, the food can be rated as a four, although in some threes I ate the same way.

There were no problems with the staff - everyone is sociable, trying to talk - almost everyone speaks a little Russian. But for the staff, all the same, I’ll put a three-ruble note, in particular, for the careless cleaning of the rooms - they clean at least every day - the main thing is to press the button that cleaning is required. But it feels like they just can't do better. Although the relationship with the cleaners was the best - Mido's guy constantly dragged water to our room in the mini bar, he brought a bottle of cola for the child - although he should not have done this - he brought a dozen different bottles of shampoo gels and other things every cleaning.
Despite the fact that the hotel was full in July, there were free sunbeds and umbrellas on the beach at any time. Despite the 37 degree heat, it is very easy to tolerate. Dry hot air like a sauna at 40 degrees - almost nothing. The sea and the reef are beyond praise - a lot of living creatures. So take your camera masks and you are guaranteed to swim for an hour. Sometimes it was a little stormy, sometimes there was a low tide and a red flag was hung out - but every day the pier opened anyway and we dived. In general, I will put five over the sea.
In general, in my opinion, Rehana is a real budget five-four. With a positive attitude - the vacation will succeed one hundred percent.
