ну, у отеля большая территория... well, the hotel has a big area...

We rested from 12/23/2009 to 12/30/2009 (8 days 7 days), all inclusive, room 2 adults + 2 children (1 year, 2 years) = 20500 rubles - with all surcharges (WITHOUT visas, from Moscow). The weather during the day is 28-30С, in the evening about 15-18, sometimes it is windy, but swimming is normal for those who swim well. because the waves are strong in the wind and are not allowed into the sea, you never know. I swam without problems.
about! hotel yes . . but !! ! he has a monogram, rugs in the rooms with this monogram and forks-knives (leftovers) in a restaurant with this monogram embossed! : ))))))) - "RR"
looking at the road from the hotel if you go left along the road to the end - there is a stele of the French plane crash on January 3.2004 - flying seagulls, and a small observation deck, you can climb to the lighthouse. Kind of cute.

The food is monotonous, breakfast for children (up to 7 years old) is nothing : (; the territory is large - being completed; for children - nothing; animation - only by the new year revived, for vacationers as much as... ; mosquitoes; do not steal; first line, reef, cove with sand, wooden pier; guests from outside are not allowed; a lake and a green path to the sea - this is in the future! The hotel is opposite the Leila entertainment complex (still unfinished since 2001. Music-noise - do not interfere.
Company - Capital. The meeting party guide Mahmoud - "give me MONEY and I'll sort everything out... ". No other representative of Capital was seen in the hotel...
Other representatives (Anex, Tez-tour, Pegasus, someone else) were almost constantly present.
Hotel workers settled in 15-20 minutes. Guide-Mahmud: you need to give some money to give a good room... a room without money is normal, with a view of the sea. There were 2 baby cribs. True, one rocking cradle - with low sides from the bottom of about 40 cm - with a mattress, and the second is just an extra bed. But all on the same day. The room has a refrigerator, TV, shower, hot water was poorly regulated, floor tiles, a safe, I don’t know how it works. Room cleaners (we had a room in the "reception" building looking from the road - the left wing) - we need a second towel - please, we need a sheet - please. Without unnecessary words, fuss, obsession.
The beach bartender is a separate topic, not worthy of discussion... one glass in one hand, regardless of who is resting with you !! ! A two-year-old child or an adult friend! Get all the kids up anyway and drag them to the bar so they get drinks too! If I'm not mistaken, also Mahmud. He is NOT so densely built. Of all, it stands out except perhaps with an impudent face : ))) When leaving, the hotel bracelets were cut off.

Restaurant - on arrival we were told to run for lunch, otherwise it ends, and then you will be settled! For each entrance to the restaurant, you must announce your room number. There are many doors to the restaurant, only one worked. The bartender "nibbler" is peculiar . . in mood. But we were never driven away from coolers when children were filled with water in baby bottles! True, once he clarified “what is it? ” - but he didn’t ask anymore, he just giggled at the “children-children”. Adults - do not give water to pour - well, if we say you want to take a walk. He had problems with pouring beer-wine for a couple of days - half a glass each. But then apparently they gave him a stick, or just decided to improve : )
The food is pretty repetitive. The fish is excellent (every day the same, no options) - not a single bone. The meat isn't bad either. But one meat option (changes every day). Sweet - monotonous biscuits with different tops 3-5 pieces, jelly, pudding, 2-3 different pies - sherbet (like "potatoes"), walnut-honey, shortbread. At breakfast, small children don’t really get around : (, lunch-dinner - there is something to choose. Forks-spoons - tiny teaspoons are BIG deficit, forks-spoons, in principle, are only large. It’s difficult for children to put such a colossus in their mouths : (. check-in - then by the beginning of the "meal" there was a queue almost to the entrance to the restaurant. If you approached a little later, it dissipated. Sugar-coffee was poured into a large plate. Tea - 6 types. The most edible ones are black, hibiscus, mint. Every evening, different meat on Mangale. They give out one serving in one hand, but you can explain that you have children - and they give more. Or in 2 plates, so as not to run around with the whole crowd. Fruits - no! Collected for children from muffins. A couple of times cut oranges, and something white-yellow with stones in the form similar to a pear.
All the waiters, hostesses, the manager behave calmly, do not be rude, do not harm the amount of food, the manager himself brought milk to the children. The restaurant has high chairs, although there are 4 pieces for the whole room. Maybe others have been removed? We occupied 2. no complaints. The children were given food for the evening. Almost without hiding - also without pretensions. At the end of the meal time - you could leave the restaurant with your plate on the street veranda - no one drove away, no one! Neither us (like with children), nor others! Just stock up on food and drinks : ) and sit at least until midnight : ))
A round bar on a hill - there is animation in the evening, a children's disco, an adult one, drinks without tea and coffee. Until midnight.

Reception - with us they began to make a "center" hall between the reception and the restaurant - for the new year. In the bar - alcoholic drinks gin, whiskey, rum, vodka, beer, tea, forfeits - no problem. The Russian-speaking boy at the reception is quite humane, helps. Outsiders are not allowed to visit. Under no pretext. Only for 50uev.
Children - No playground! There is one water slide for children from 7 years old (our 2 year old was not dragged away from it). Two swings - near the pool and on the beach.
The territory-sea is large, landscaped, the beach will someday be beautiful. Throughout the territory there are many steps of an incomprehensible purpose, but moving around for people with wheelchairs is problematic, and sometimes even impossible alone. Hotel on the first line. The descent to the beach is a steep hill, next to it is a ladder with “ledges”. It's hard with a stroller. For children there is a sandy piece of the beach - 2 pieces. They bring people to one of them from other hotels: (, from the second wooden pier! stretches to the end of the coral reef. It’s better not to swim with wounds : ) fish love blood : ). The hotel is under construction!! ! Those. the beach area is being completed! Palm trees are planting, there is no pond on the shore! He is only in the project, like a river. Additional buildings are also being built on the shore. It doesn't interfere with your vacation! Various figures are cut out of the bushes - gardeners are trying! With us, they completed the descent to the sandy cove-to the beach - a cobblestone staircase. Animation?? ? What is it? ? Did not see!! ! Yes, there are 5-6 people walking around the hotel in red T-shirts with the inscription “VIP animation” - but I don’t remember anything like animation : ( neither for children nor adults. We just started to move a little for the New Year’s arrival on December 27th.
The reef is not very picturesque. There are many different fish, especially before sunset, as people disperse. Or in waves. About 50 meters to the right (looking at the sea) - there is a vertical cave on the edge of the reef where a gray round catfish-like night fish lives. In the same place to the right - at a depth of ~ 30 meters there is another "cliff" of the reef. The beach towels are really wet - so we decided not to take them out every evening, but to dry them ourselves.

Rooms - don't be afraid of rooms on the first floor. We lived for eight days with a broken balcony door lock! - and nothing. Not a piece of paper was missing.
Pools not heated. Animation also during the day at the pools and on the beach - various types of aerobics, volleyball. Bus to Naama at 18.00 and 20.30, and back twice at 21.00 and 23.00.
O!! ! there are also cockroaches : ) and our small ones from overseas with a matchbox : )) and a lot of mosquitoes. It seems like at the request of the cleaners they poison them - we did not ask.
We didn't see billiards. There was a tennis table by the pool, but, again, they never saw anyone playing.
oh, I couldn’t resist yet : ) I just read it : ) review for April about this hotel: "" A hotel of the Russian and Ukrainian provinces, summer residents, habaloks, pot-bellied men yelling through the entire restaurant "out there, there is a trough with potatoes! ". "- yes, Ukraine, Belarus, Russia, Germans, Scandinavians, someone else, YOUTH! people with children, that's as described - nebilo. maybe it depends on the time of year. we didn’t notice any rudeness, no fights, or anything “out of the ordinary” from tourists.
ps I am not spoiled by "ALL", there is something to compare with in Egypt and Turkey. We always drive on burning cheap roads. At the same time (December 24-29.2009) my mother was in Sharm at 3*! 10 minutes walk from the Royal - so it's heaven and earth! 3* second line hotel! BUT! The piano didn’t run close there : (neither in animation, nor in food, nor in service : ( except that he has his own sea...
