The hotel is excellent. Very green and cozy (For comparison, Rehanna 5 * opposite is bald, one palm tree per 50 m). In general, I rate the rest on a solid 5 (for the money). It was the first time in Egypt.
Those who will go - pay attention to an important point. For the AI ​ ​ system, they give 2 different bracelets: green (free drinks at the bar until 02:00) and yellow (free drinks at the bar until 00:00). We were given green ones, for some reason our friends from the Dnieper were given yellow ones. In general, check with the tour operator. The same story with a hairdryer - we didn’t have it in the room, our friends had it (probably it’s like compensation for the yellow bracelet : )))
Walk 5-7 minutes to the beach. Be sure to snorkel - an unforgettable sight. The sea, fish, corals - just super. Mask + snorkel no more than $10 (if you bargain). Be sure to buy a special shoes for the sea - no more than $ 4. I want to refute the myth - "Egyptian beer and drinks are impossible to drink. " Very normal beer, light, you can drink all day and "be in shape" : ), drinks are similar to Jupi, but tastier and not so chemical, who doesn't like it - free water in the cooler, tea, coffee. On the 3rd day of drinking, I even fell in love with Egyptian whiskey : )).

Myth 2: "Bad, monotonous food" - the quality of food is excellent, everything is tasty, hot and fresh, a lot has already been said about pastries, really super. The choice of food is large and it repeats every day - such monotony suits me !!
Myth 3: "In February, a strong wind blows in Egypt, it's cold. " Perhaps we were lucky with the weather, but nothing like this happened. Once there was a strong wind for half a day, there was some sand, but we still swam and sunbathed. By the way, you can already sunbathe from 8 in the morning. The sea is not cold, invigorates! ! The hotel has a heated pool with water slides, really warm. For comparison, in the top five, on the contrary, the pool is much colder, which is also, like, heated.
Myth 4: "Foreigners are loved, but we are not - they are poorly served. " You are treated the way you treat them. Be friendly, communicate in English (not the most important).
Bartenders William, Mustafa and Ahmed are great.
You can go to Naama Bay or the Old City on your own, by minibus for $ 1 per person. Souvenirs are better to buy not immediately at the entrance to the market, but go further inland. Be sure to bargain. For example, a bag that was asked for $65, we bought for $16, and so on.
The hotel has an excellent disco - most importantly, the music is varied, non-pop.
In general, for this money, the rest was a success, the impressions are only positive, you can go both with children (the hotel is not noisy, cozy), and with friends, Egyptian beer, whiskey and the sun will be enough for everyone : )))))) All dissatisfied with the service , food, etc. - TO CRIMEA!!!!!!!! !
