To begin with, it was the first time in Egypt and at sea abroad. We went to this hotel on purpose, based on the price and the beautiful sea, judging by the reviews. I am not very picky about living conditions and after reading the reviews, I was ready for anything. Went for 7 days.
The first impression was terrible! We arrived with a friend at the hotel in the evening, around 20:00. There is silence in the foyer near the rycepshin, lonely tourists sit on sofas and get bored. We got a little upset. When we checked in, we were offered to pay $20 for a room with a good view of the pool. We agreed. We were given room 2012, on the first floor overlooking the pool. Yes, the view is really gorgeous, BUT during the day, when they came from the sea and wanted to relax or lie down, nothing happened to us. from 14.30 to 17.30 music played very loudly almost near the window.
After checking in, we went for dinner. It would be better if we didn’t go there... The tables are dirty, there are no forks, the tablecloth and chair are stained. Everything they took (sliced potatoes, fresh tomatoes, stewed vegetables, some kind of chocolate cake) was sour and tasteless. They returned hungry to the room, they wanted to cry and return home.
The next day, fortunately, everything changed) We went into the kitchen with fear, but it was already much cleaner there (and in the evening we were generally shocked, because we had laid new tablecloths, white napkins, everything was very clean and beautiful). We considered what to eat. There was enough food to choose from. I would recommend In the morning - cereal with milk (by the way, I really liked milk, even better than our store-bought bags), two-egg omelet (although I almost always came across undercooked, but you can ask for better fried or fried eggs, or without some additives), all fresh vegetables in the morning are good, a croissant with chocolate. For lunch and dinner on the balcony grilled meatballs, chicken fillet, pieces of beef and fish, all delicious. The pasta is also delicious, french fries or slices, as in McDonald's "peasant style". There was rice, pasta, broths. But in the last 2 days somehow everything became boring and I didn’t feel like eating at all.
The infrastructure of the hotel is wonderful - a large area, a large clean pool, a beautiful garden, many public gardens, bushes, trees, palm trees without dry leaves, there was no garbage anywhere. The area is one of the most beautiful in Sharm. When we went diving, we drove through the territory of the Domina hotel and our guide said that this is the largest and best hotel in Sharm. So for comparison, it was much more beautiful with us, because in Domina there was a lot of garbage lying around, dry leaves, there were few trees, and all the bushes were already dry.
The main disadvantage of the hotel is the lack of entertainment. There is no Wi-Fi even at the reception, the Internet is expensive. It gets dark early, at 18.30, and what to do after this time, we never figured out in 7 days. Yes, there is animation, but it is at 22.00 and only 1 hour. Why can't you turn on the music just on the street, but there is enough space for dancing. Everyone would dance: youth, adults, Russians and Europeans.
If this is your first time in Egypt, then I advise you to take excursions. We went diving, near Tiran Island, quad bike safari, in Soho (there are shops, an ice rink and singing fountains, beautiful statues along the alley). But take it on the beach, everything is the same there, but 2 times cheaper.
Well, the sea! the sea is so beautiful! Coral reef, fish (small, large, single, in pairs and whole flocks, white, transparent, red, yellow, striped, like in the Nemo cartoon, green, iridescent, black and white), the beach is good, sand. In the morning and after lunch there is a lot of water on the shore, knee-deep, waist-deep and you can lie down to sunbathe, because from the pontoon the depth is 7 meters right away and if you are not a good swimmer, then take a vest and a mask with a snorkel MANDATORY).
In general, I liked the rest. But I would go to this hotel again if the price is low, but for the price I paid ($1120 for two), it's better to go to another one. We talked on excursions and at the airport with tourists from other hotels, so it was not boring there, no one from the staff bothered and the food was tastier, for the same price.
The main advantages of this hotel:
- chic infrastructure, clean pool and no garbage on the street;
- insanely beautiful sea, coral reef;
- good beach, free sunbeds, mattresses, towels.
Main cons:
- the presence of tasteless and spoiled food;
- boring, no entertainment;
- very annoying staff (all girls are offered to go somewhere for a walk in the evening) and not always polite;
- dirty kitchen
- all the furniture in the rooms, in the kitchen and in the lobby is somehow old and also dirty.
Decide for yourself what is your priority: the sea, entertainment / discos, service, food.
In this hotel you can have a great rest morally, from the hustle and bustle of work. Whatever it was boring, you need to go with a company)
