Stayed as a family with two children. Initially, we were supposed to rest in another hotel, but the tour operator had problems with that hotel and we were settled in Rixos.
If we consider a hotel without the sea, then it is quite a good hotel, with a small cozy area, quality food and good cleaning. As for Egypt, service and food were at a good level.
Of the minuses of the service, I want to note the work of the waiters. In the morning I had to run after them or guard at the coffee machine to ask them to make good brewed coffee. For some reason, they didn’t serve us all the rest days in the morning, but they were more attentive to European tourists, courteous and always brought coffee)) This only applies to the waiters on the morning shift.
Upon arrival, all women were given flowers and a fruit basket was served in the room. But not for us, we had neither flowers nor fruits.

I want to note the good cleaning of the rooms, service in the main restaurant at lunch and dinner. There were always free tables, well served, clean.
There was not much variety in the food, but the quality was up to the mark, except for drinks (didn't like juices and tea). I was pleased with the children's table - there were also vegetable / fruit canned purees, freshly prepared vegetable puree for kids, boiled meat. Good selection of fruits. Insanely delicious and high-quality ice cream for lunch and dinner was given in the main restaurant.
Now about the biggest minus is the sea. The hotel is located in Nabq Bay, where there are frequent high / low tides, strong currents, wind and no reef... You can swim in the sea, but there is nothing special to see, you can’t sail far from the pantone, as there is always a current.
The sun loungers on the beach are squeezed, without mattresses, they press on your back, you won’t lie down for a long time.
Good pools, there are several of them, you can choose the one that suits you.
Did not like the playground, the condition is old, small. The trampoline is dirty, old, neglected.
During the stay at the hotel in the daytime almost did not see the animators. We didn’t see any daytime entertainment, I don’t even know if there were any, the mini club didn’t attract children, we didn’t go there ourselves. Evening shows were not seen, as small children did not fall. Once visited a mini disco and my daughter got bored, did not like it.
