Just returned from Egypt))) So my review will be the most recent. First of all, I want to thank everyone who took the time to leave reviews, as they played a key role in choosing the hotel. It was La vita (Savita).
I wanted to write a lot of things, talk about a lot, but Dima24 described everything so wonderfully that I want to add some nuances.

Firstly: among the reviews about the hotel there are complaints about TezTour, to be honest, when I found out that we were also going through this company, I was afraid that they might not be met at the airport and not appear at the hotel. And everything turned out to be very wonderful: we were met, transported, by the way, the bus was specially ordered for our hotel, as well as for most hotels, which were transported by Tezturovites. The representative was at the hotel every day and the next day after arrival there was a briefing - very informative.

Secondly: one of the most unpleasant moments is the settlement.

Probably everyone who leaves reviews like "settled in a bad room" stumbled upon the same Egyptian at the reception. I'll tell you why. We arrived at the hotel around 22:00, they put bracelets on us and we ran to eat. After dinner, I quickly ran to the reception to fill out forms and get a number. Having read that you need to draw a big and wide smile on your face, I did just that to prepare $ 20 for my passport. And of all the visitors to the hotel with me, I was one of the first to run to the reception for questionnaires. I chose the cutest Egyptian and let's chat with him. Neither my smile nor asking for a room with a sea view helped. There was only one answer: "There are no sea view's. " I was already hanging my nose, but when he looked into the passport and saw 20 bucks, he immediately smiled and said that he would think of something now. And yes, I figured it out. Room in the fifth building overlooking the sea and the pool - very nice.
Our friends settled in about 30 minutes after us, so they approached another boy and he gave them a free room in the main building overlooking the sea. The moral is this: when you settle, you choose the most unsympathetic Egyptian and you should be lucky, well, at least we had it that way.

Thirdly: in comparison with other hotels, the cuisine in La Vite is European in places with an Italian twist, so you won’t find anything particularly spicy, except sometimes, but there is always a good alternative. Lunches and especially dinners at the hotel are varied: every evening on the summer terrace the chef fries meat - very tasty and always side dishes for every taste. But breakfast is difficult. A classic and unchanging assortment - muesli, milk, boiled eggs, fried eggs, scrambled eggs, sweets, sausages, sausage and cheese, and so on every morning. Despite my love for scrambled eggs, for 8 days of being there, I will not eat it soon. There were fruits: watermelons, melons, pears, peaches, apples.
But by a strange coincidence, they were always served in the late afternoon. For example, if dinner starts at 19-00, then at 21-00 you can eat watermelon, and at 20-00 it may not be there yet. So for the sake of fruit, it is advisable to come later, and suddenly they will serve)))

These are the main subtleties that I want to talk about. And everything else in the hotel is wonderful and does not cause inconvenience. Many palm trees with half-ripened dates, a wonderful sea, which is so salty that it is a pleasure to swim in it (I don’t know how to swim, but this water pushes out and therefore easily swam from one pontoon to another), hardworking staff, especially in the main restaurant.

We went to Cairo. The air conditioner worked in the bus and it was +20, then you go outside and there it is +40. It is very difficult, because, if possible, in this heat it is better to lie on the beach and admire the fish in the sea. The situation with a trip to Israel is similar. We were also in the SPA salon, which is located in the hotel.
Turkish bath is something unusual. And the most important thing is diving. I went scuba diving for the first time - a lot of impressions, since this is the Red Sea and everything here is so beautiful.

If you have any questions about the rest in the hotel - write, I will try to answer everyone)))
You won't go wrong choosing this hotel.
