Hotel ratings by criteria:
The three of us rested with friends, I'm abroad for the 6th time, my friends are the 1st. I must say right away that they flew for 400 USD. for a person, and if you do not forget about it, then in principle it was not bad. The question is that the hotel is declared as 4+, but I would not give it more than 3+. About the hotel:
1. The territory is not very large, but well-groomed, a fairly new hotel, everything is clean, a lot of greenery.
2. The rooms are spacious, despite the fact that we were delivered a 3rd bed, there was enough space. The room has everything you need (TV set, safe, hair dryer, towels, gel and shampoo, paper, glasses), everything worked, several times during the whole holiday they came to us to check the performance of the TV. Cleaning in the room is good, when they left a dollar, they also made swans for us and different flowers. There is a minibar, but it is empty, on arrival there should be 1 bottle of water, but we did not have it.

3. The food is very monotonous, at first it seemed to us that it was tasty, but then we probably got fed up, since there is zero diversity. Very little fruit, only dates, apples and oranges. From vegetables, 3 types of cabbage, cucumbers, tomatoes that have drained properly and a type of salad with sour cream. Soups are creamy as usual, I liked the tomato and zucchini soup. From meat: chicken and in batter (very dry), meatballs (such as beefsteak), sausages (soy) well, it happens like a roast. The fish was either battered or grilled, there were also squid rings.
4. Staff: in principle, all are friendly, the most arrogant are the bartenders, the Europeans spoiled them by giving tips, so they snickered). There was also an incident in the dining room: on the day of departure, they already cut off my bracelet, but in the end they decided to eat before the plane, so when the canteen staff saw that I was asked to pay for lunch without a bracelet, we of course proved our case, but I advise you not to wear a bracelet until the last cutting down.
5. Beach: located across the road from the hotel, 10 minutes walk, a bus runs regularly to the beach. We walked several times very interesting, beautiful views. There were always enough sun loungers on the beach, the entrance to the pontoon sea, they were not allowed to walk on corals only on the pontoon, so we did not need sea slippers. A very beautiful coral reef, it was a little annoying that excursions from other hotels were brought to our beach, so at such moments it is not very comfortable to swim, as you constantly bump into someone in the water. Also, due to the accumulation of yachts on the water, there is an oil film from the fuel. If you go to the right of the hotel's beach there is sand, no sunbeds, but a very secluded place, especially for photos.
6. We didn’t go anywhere on excursions, but the tour operator’s prices are 2 times more expensive than they sell on the beach and in the city. Of the excursions, we only bought a massage at the hotel for $ 40, the Cleopatra complex is a rare shit, $ 40 is a pity for this, the Egyptians do not know how to do massage, I would give a maximum of $ 20 for such a massage.
Near the tyrant's beach is the Melya Sinai hotel, it is 5 star and, as it seemed to us, is much cooler than the tyrant. There is also a spa, so if you really want a massage, you can still find out the prices there. In general, when choosing a hotel, look at the prices for that and that hotel, if the difference is not big, then the shallows are definitely better.

In the evening, the hotel is boring, only the hookah bar is open until 11 pm, then only for money or with your own, when the bar closes everyone goes to their rooms, there are no discos for young people in the hotel, only animation offers every evening for money.
7. Animation: it seems to be there and it’s as if it doesn’t exist, by the pool during the day it’s generally boring only exercises and water aerobics in the morning, for which a maximum of 5 people gather. On the beach they carry out exercises (more like Pilates), dancing and all that, as it seemed to me more fun on the beach. Every evening there is some show, the program is scheduled for a week, so if you are going for more than 7 days, there is no point in going to the show.
Bars are open from 11 to 17 on the beach and pool, hookah bar from 18 to 23. When the bars do not work, there is a problem with water, you can only take it in the canteen.
But in general, it all depends on the company, we met a large company of Poles, it was fun with them.
