Were in this hotel from March 28 to April 4, a young couple. Long chose, stopped at Stella. We flew from "Anex Tour", nowhere else through them! Firstly, the old plane, especially the one in which we flew there, the return flight was more pleasant. Secondly, a brazen and boorish hotel guide, who soared us excursions from which we refused, after which he got nasty and said in a raised tone that he did not need such tourists and that we should not buy from "Anex") Accepted))
They laid it on at 11, the welcome drink was juice. They gave me a room in a shady area, with a partial view of the spa pool, a tree in a hole, some flowers. The door of the room, the contact was leaving and she squeaked, there was a hole in the center of the bed linen. We asked to change the room, they changed it without any problems. The room was on the 2nd floor, 255, with a partial view of the sea and the pool. But! The room is located under the restaurant, and children are playing in the pool from 8 in the morning, so it was noisy. In general, children made up 40% of the hotel residents, a lot! Most of all in the hotel, by the way, Ukrainians, in second place are the Arabs, not many Europeans and Russians.
The next disadvantage was the hair in the bathroom, apparently they did not expect someone to be settled there, we asked to clean the bathroom, the second time they understood (and left a note and called). It's good that the cleaners of the rooms every time they see you ask if everything is fine, the following wishes have already been decided directly.

Pleasantly surprised by the laundry, special thanks! Clean things were in my room after 4 hours. T-shirt is folded like I just bought it, THANK YOU)
More about the service - they work quickly on the beach, they cover the towel, but the towel can only be used in the area where you took it, the pool from the beach is not an example, I honestly didn’t understand this, it’s less to wash it, well, ok)
On the beach, the waiters ask if everything is fine, and what to bring from the booze, they carry pieces of fruit. There were a lot of different cocktails, despite the fact that everyone complains about the local alcohol, it suited us perfectly, only their whiskey is not very good, and the rest is quite normal.
The guy who cleans his glasses works by the pool, we never went to bed there, but I would be embarrassed somehow)
Pantone is mobile, the sea is super! The fish are beautiful, we took masks at the diving center for $ 2 per day (until 17:00) we liked it very much! There are life jackets on the beach, you can ask for them and swim as much as you like.
We bought excursions at the hotel, the guys there are super! Also very responsive and friendly!
I advise you to take a yacht on about. Tyrant with diving and snorkeling + lunch. Such an excursion costs $ 50 per person. We took Safari, ATVs, I advise a private tour, not in a crowd, it cost $ 40. For 2 people.
We also rode a boat with a parachute lift, but it would be better to take a fast boat, it turned out to be more interesting)
From where you can go: Soho, we were at the Luxor restaurant, the food in the restaurant is delicious + there is live ARABIC music, which we really missed in the hotel, where there were classical works, modern, Ukrainian and Russian. Don't go to Ice bar, not at all what you expected.
AND I HIGHLY ADVISE TO GO TO EL HADABU IN THE CAFE FARGE !! ! Only the locals know about it, unforgettable beauty!
Well, and finally, the Old Market, just look and buy seafood in the Faros store, which can be prepared in the restaurant at the hotel. Souvenirs are better to take in Soho, it's cheaper there.

Let's go back to the hotel, the territory is green, compact and well-groomed.
The main elevator goes from the 3rd to the 7th floor, but it was not a problem for us to go through the pool and up the stairs to the room.
Food: quite varied (except for breakfast), you can find whatever you like, I missed baked salmon, once there was salted red fish, but twice there was sushi. There are very peppery dishes, and there are those that are impossible to eat. But the choice is great!
Also on the beach there are paid seafood that is cooked in front of you on the grill, for example 300 gr. lobster cost us $18.
Interior: many elements reminiscent of the Soviet Union: lots of brown and yellow, blue upholstery, curtains, bed. . .
In general, we liked the rest, not 5 points, but a solid 4.
