I wanted to go to Egypt for a long time, but I couldn’t visit this fabulous country. As an experienced traveler, it took me a long time to choose a hotel. I read reviews and analyzed. In recent years, I have been able to visit many places - in India, and in Thailand, and in Cambodia, and in Germany, and Great Britain, and in Poland. Now I wanted comfort, so that everything was inclusive, since I had already rested in Turkey once. And I was not mistaken. Rest was a success. Me and my 15-year-old daughter arrived early in the morning. Until we settled in, we walked around the territory, looked at the sea, admired the stunning Egyptian dawn.
The territory of the hotel is large, all buried in flowers and greenery. Beauty is indescribable, which is constantly looked after, watered, cut. Bushes of unimaginable shapes, lawns are all bright green and the sea is visible from all sides. The hotel is located along the sea on the first line.
They gave a good room, with a sea view, although initially we bought a tour with a garden view (it is cheaper). The room has everything you need for a comfortable stay: a large bed with bright sheets, hair dryer, refrigerator, safe, kettle, sugar, coffee, teas. Very clean. Cleaned thoroughly every day. They give a lot of snow-white towels - for legs, face, hands and body, they bring bottled water to the room to drink. A Russian-speaking woman works, who every day asks if everything suits us, if they clean well, if there are wishes. When you come to the beach or to the pool, everyone is given a large towel-sheet, they put a sunbed in the place that you show, they put a mattress on it, then your towel.

The food is good, a lot of variety of dishes for every taste. And most importantly: for all the time, we never got a stomach ache. They give chicken, fish, all kinds of meat. Sometimes there are squids, octopuses and their seafood dishes. Fruits, juices, wine, all kinds of teas, you can make various coffees, hot chocolate. Milk hot and cold, all kinds of sweets, cakes, buns, cereals, honey in combs. There is food for Germans and Italians, who are the majority in this hotel, and for the Slavs. Every morning they prepare an egg especially for you, you can use fried eggs, they can turn it over, you can add different ingredients to it. In addition to the salads that are already prepared there, you can choose the ingredients and prepare a salad especially for you. In between they give ice cream, delicious different pizzas. I really liked the steak from a large fresh fish, which was cooked in front of us. The bars make all sorts of cocktails - mojito, pina colada and others, very good beer, poured directly from glass bottles. I don't really like beer, I just tried it, but the Germans drank it all the time. The bartenders are smiling, cheerful, attentive. In general, all hotel employees - cooks, waiters and even cleaners, are friendly, remember names, say hello, always ask how you are. Many people know Russian well. The reception is also very attentive to any requests, there is always a Russian-speaking person. As for the Internet, it is available at the reception and in bars. Not very fast, but it is quite enough, so I think there is no point in buying a card.
Separately, I want to say about the animators! People, this is something. Quito, this is their leader, and his team - the girl Tam Tam, Mr. Potato and other guys make such shows that even in the circus you will not see. And you can also participate. She herself took part in several shows, I still can’t understand how they do it. There were magicians, and a real yogi who walked on glass, lay on it, lifted several people and jumped on the glass, lay on nails, and people stood on it. I was impressed by the fire show, when the guys staged a real extravaganza of fire, swallowed it, released dragons. Artists were also invited, they did real Egyptian evenings with belly dancing. There was a singer who sang famous songs in different languages. There was a man who danced the skirt dance. Here they walked on stilts, invited a man with a camel, with whom you can take pictures for free. You can't describe everything. These shows are a must see at least once. The day started very fun, with the animators you could play different games, volleyball, tennis, darts, do yoga, learn different dances and belly dance. There was simply no time to be bored. And if you didn’t want to take part in anything, no one pulled by force, they switched. And the best part is that it is easy to be friends with these animators, they are very sociable, everyone knew and loved them. For children there is a playground, kids club, mini disco. I myself saw how often the animators played with the children.
As for the sea and beaches. Those are gorgeous. The sea is warm, beautiful corals, amazing fish. Everyone swam in masks, both the elderly and the children. You just need to try not to touch anything, but just look. After all, there are many poisonous corals and fish. There are two pontoons on both sides, two main sandy beaches where you can swim not only from the pontoon, but also from the shore. There are several secluded exits to the sea, where you can quietly relax alone on a sunbed under an umbrella.
All in all, I recommend this hotel to everyone. He exceeded my expectations in every way. My daughter was also very pleased with the rest, took a lot of beautiful photos. I want to return to Labranda again and again. Thanks to the hotel staff for a wonderful stay.
