I really liked the hotel!
Before leaving, they scared us: There are sharks in Egypt, it is very hot there in June, there is still a revolution going on there!
But We did not listen to anyone and went. And they didn't regret it one bit.
Sharks for a week we did not meet there (even according to rumors). You can’t call the weather hot, because you don’t feel 35 degrees due to the dry climate. There are no military actions. We even went to Cairo for a tour. The only thing is that there are a lot of paramilitary posts along the way, but they keep order, and we had a guard on the bus.
Now about the hotel:
We were met at the airport by representatives of Tez-tour and immediately taken to the hotel. We went by bus for about 20 minutes. The hotel is located in the village of Nabq at the very end. Locals do not live in this village, there are only hotels.

At the hotel for about 30 minutes in the lobby, while filling out questionnaires. Then it turned out that we had already been assigned rooms, they gave us the keys, explained where to go and after 5 minutes we were in the room. The room turned out to be very good (and this is without any "motivation") with a view of the "Relax Zone".
The hotel has excellent food. Five restaurants (all on the system "all inclusive") and each has its own kitchen. We ate grilled crabs, octopus, and squid. There is a lot of meat in restaurants. There are no lines anywhere. Lots of sweets and drinks. From fruits, melon, apples, dates (very tasty, nothing to do with what we sell). The hotel has a lot of sweets, I especially liked the oriental ones. You can eat at the hotel at any time of the day or night, some kind of restaurant, but it works. We returned from Cairo at 12, went and ate without any problems. In short, at the end of the holiday we could no longer look at the food!
The hotel has 6 bars. Almost everywhere in the hotel. You can always drink Cola, Fanta, Sprite, min. water, plain water, beer and alcoholic drinks (local). I didn't like the beer because it's non-alcoholic. The beach bar has 4 types of ice cream and from 12 to 15 they serve lunches (too lazy to go to restaurants): hamburgers, pizza, French fries, fish, squid, spaghetti, vegetables, etc. In this bar in the evening there is animation and a disco, but we did not go, as we were very tired.
There are 5 recreation areas on the territory of the hotel:
1 - Water park (it is closer to the exit from the hotel) - a noisy place with loud music, everyone is constantly moving somewhere, in short, hanging out. The kids love it. You can't get your daughter out of there (she's 10 years old).
2 - Quiet zone - a small pool is closed on all sides by hotel rooms, in which there are no bars, no music, very few staff walks, there are practically no children, as they are bored there.
3 - "Relax zone" - also a quiet place, but there is already a bigger pool, there is a small pool for children (0.5m) and there is a bar. In these two zones, hotel employees do not go, who offer you various entertainments (diving, beauty treatments, SPA, excursions, etc. ). There are many pensioners in these two zones.

4 - "Active zone" - the most popular place. The zone is divided into 2 parts, for adults it is a huge pool in which they simply swim and water polo, and aqua aerobics, and teach diving. For children there is a large children's pool, where there are many children's slides (from 3 to 10 years old). Animators work in this area all day long, loud music plays, these (see above) hotel workers scurry back and forth.
5 - The sea and the pier - The pier is long, 600-700 meters. But while walking along it, it doesn’t get boring, as you are constantly distracted by beautiful fish. During the week, the white flag was only once. We were able to swim at the very end of the pier at a depth. Corals end there and the depth begins, immediately 20-30 meters. But the sea is so transparent that the mask shows the bottom at this depth. The fish are very beautiful.
The staff at the hotel - try very hard, do not try to extract a tip from you. They work from the heart. I understand Russian poorly, everyone knows English, since there are 20-30% Russian-speaking people in the hotel, the rest are English, Germans, Italians and Czechs, and there are also Egyptians (but there are few of them). At the reception they understand well in Russian. The room is cleaned every day, bedding and towels are changed, swans and lotus flowers are spun from towels (and all this for only "van dolar"). Beach towels are free and you can change as many as you want. People practically do not occupy sun loungers anywhere in advance, as there are always and everywhere enough of them. There are no insects and mosquitoes on the territory, as they are poisoned every day. The room has a safe and absolutely free.
When we wanted civilization, in the evening we got into a minibus near the hotel and drove to the "Old Town", skimped, walked and returned to the hotel on the same minibus
In general, everything in the hotel is thought out to the smallest detail for your comfortable stay.
