We went for 10 days, from October 14 to October 24.9 people (6 adults + 3 children). We chose a hotel for a long time, almost all of their companies had already rested in Sharm before that, i. е. already had some experience. We chose the Tropicana Grand Azur. In principle, everything is excellent. The hotel is certainly not new and this is noticeable mainly in the rooms, in some places there are cracks in the tiles, not new furniture, old TVs, bathrooms in perfect order. . . choice and quantity), good animation and nightly shows, so we were in the rooms only for sleeping. As for the rooms - take buildings near the sea, 4.5, 6 like, well, you can see them on the hotel map (we had the 4th one), they have an excellent view and are not noisy (at the reception desk they left 20 euros per family with a request to resettle normally - not deceived). There rooms are superior, well, as for me, this is an ordinary good standard room, but they call it superior and it costs a little more than the standard. But the standard rooms in this hotel are just not worth taking, they are near the fence overlooking the road. Well, if it's critical.
Several large pools, each with its own zest, the water is clean, saunas near the pools, a free gym in the spa center, free jacuzzis, saunas and steam rooms in the same place.
For children (and for adults too) - ice cream.

Cleaning in the rooms - excellent (do not forget about 1 dollar for tea), towels were changed even without throwing them on the floor, they just changed... the bed was also changed every day.
A la carte restaurants - we visited all 4, in principle everything is fine, but in marrakesh (the main restaurant) the choice is much richer, except that they serve you in the restaurant, and there you type it yourself, I repeat once again - the feeding is excellent, everything is in bulk, fruits too , all sorts of themed evenings (Russian, Arabic cuisine, etc. ), barbecue on the street, a restaurant on the beach, etc. , dishes changed during the week, the same menu is mainly for breakfast, lunch and dinner are much more diverse . In general, there were no problems with food from 7 am to 2 am, at any time you could go to one and numerous feeding points and nibble something. Alcohol and drinks were also issued without restrictions, at least 5, at least 10 glasses. There are not many cocktails, but they are there. The local beer SAKARA was drafted for several days, much better than the same, but bottled. You can take plates with food to the rooms, no one says a word against it, they are taken away during cleaning.
In the room, in addition to furniture and a TV set, there is a refrigerator, a safe (not in all rooms, if you're lucky, if you're not lucky, they allocate a safe at the reception for free), an electric kettle and coffee. Large balcony.
Truly All Inclusive, without any tricks. Of course, there are paid services, your hotel guide will tell you about them, we went from Pegas-tourist, hotel guide Alisher. Normal guy, no complaints.
From the excursions this time we took a yacht (the Ras Mohammed reserve, snorkeling, etc. diving and swimming), quad bike safaris, some of ours went to Cairo (take pillows from the rooms on the bus, the trip is hard), well, a super safari in Colored Canyon and St. Catherine. The last excursion is probably the most physically difficult, a lot of walking in the mountains and driving through the desert in a jeep, beautiful, but hard. Fat people or those who have heart problems should not take Colored Canyon, there may be nuances.

In general, we liked it! There are no serious complaints at all.
