Advantages (+) and disadvantages (-):
1. (-) The hotel is not just for a family, but for a super-family, just a pension-family vacation! There is simply nothing for young and independent guys and girls to do here! Entertainment on site - zero, on the beaches (bus delivery) - zero. Music in the hotel, where the pools are full, sorry for the word, x. . nya. When there were people, the DJ (he is also an animator) Max could not raise someone to dance. Our repeated appeals to put something more understandable and dynamic - did not find understanding. It turns out that there was another girl - the animator Dasha. But everyone thought it was one of the tourists. The whole "work" consisted in calling everyone to play water volleyball. The mesh is torn and darned 10 times, it was torn several times during the game, it was problematic to tie it again.
2. (-) The nearest beach is the coral Fanara Beach Club, very short and narrow, the sunbeds are close together, and several hotels use it. I somehow came at 10 o'clock to me an Arab angrily said that there were no free sunbeds for Sabena Marmra and goodbye! Fortunately, friends from my hotel, who arrived earlier, helped to leave things near their sunbed. It is normal to go in, if you swim and not wander, then special shoes are not needed - corals begin already where the depth is more than 0.6 meters.

3. (-) The hotel itself is small, occupied by 20-30%, the territory is often empty, as if extinct.
4. (+/-) The rooms are good, bright, spacious. But in many rooms, cold water runs very weakly - in a thin stream. But hot - like a cannon beats. Calls to the reception led to nothing. They didn't even give clear explanations. so taking a shower was problematic due to the fact that at a reasonable temperature the water turned out to be so weak that the shower button switched to faucet mode.
5. When checking in at the reception, Arab scammers offered to pay $20 extra to get a "room with a pool" (probably meant with access to the pool? ). When asked to show both rooms - the original and the one that will be with a surcharge - was denied without explanation. Of course, not seeing what the surcharge was for, I refused. When I moved into my room, at no extra charge - the 1st floor with a great view of the pool and access to it through the balcony!
6. (+) Wi-Fi is really free on the 1st floor in the bar. there is also a computer with access to the Internet for free. You can also upload pictures on it if you need someone.
7. (-) Pools with VERY cold water. Degrees 20-22. it feels like constantly running water, from some kind of key. After the next volleyball in it, I caught a cold in my back, for several days I could not bend, straighten, or turn around. (did not lift weights) Considering what a large pressure of hot water in the rooms - they could add it to the pool. In any case, I saw only a few people swimming in that pool a few times 1-2 people all the time.
8. (+/-) The sandy beach (El Kheima Beach) is far away, in the old town, it takes about 10 minutes by bus, but it is long and spacious. There are always empty seats. It has no changing cabins, no (free) water or other drink, and a toilet (free). Day is acceptable.
9. (+) Billiards in the hotel was free. Maybe because there were simply no people?
10. (-) The "all inclusive" system does not always have ice for drinks and cocktails.

11. (+) The food is good, quite varied. But the servants are so annoying and even impudent (they like to "stand over the soul"), which sometimes spoiled the whole appetite.
12. (--) In the evenings, a local animator, who is also a DJ, played in the disco bar. However, out of all his repertoire, I wanted to dance to only 2-3 songs during the evening. The style is indefinite and little known, despite the fact that the contingent is 90% Russian, very few songs were staged for our people. I did not respond to requests to put something more famous and rhythmic. In fact, there were no normal dances, although the people who wanted to in the evenings were from the age of 23-34 years.
In general, there is nothing to do in this hotel! I regret that I made a mistake with the choice, do not repeat my mistake!
