There were good reviews as well as bad ones. We decided to take a risk and lost...
We arrived at 5 am. Within 30 minutes we were settled in the room of the 7th building and sent for breakfast. More details can be found here - https://youtu. be/XUc20EliUFE
Renovation of rooms and territory is long overdue. The paving slabs in the area of ​ ​ building 7 were broken. You have to constantly look at your feet. Only the central alley is being removed. On the outskirts of the territory there are a lot of "abandons". Bungalows near the beach do not work, they are never cleaned near them. The rooms are very tired. The mattresses are firm. Room cleaning only includes pick up chocolates or a dollar. At best, they can pick up the garbage from the bucket. Beach towels are changed at 10-11 in the morning in the room, and since we are at the beach at this time, we managed to change them only once in 8 days. The towels in the room were changed every two days. It's better to bring your own hair dryer.

All 8 days passing by the reception there were scandals and screams of vacationers.
With us, several tourists who had just arrived, in shock from what they saw, immediately changed the hotel. Therefore, it’s better to think 10 times whether you are ready to check it all yourself)))
There was a case with us, they forbade pouring water into bottles. It was possible only in glasses. The air temperature was 43 degrees in the shade. Naturally, there were scandals. After half a day, coolers were deployed, and vacationers could draw water without restrictions. These emotions are not very reminiscent of rest ...
Well done animators, they try!
FOOD in the hotel is the biggest minus. Constant queues even before the opening of the dining room. I can't call it a restaurant. The grill restaurant is closed. There are not enough spoons, it is dirty and sticky. For breakfast, apart from cereal with milk and eggs, there is nothing to eat. Lunch and dinner seem to be something to eat, but it seems to be not ...In the video you can see breakfast, lunch and dinner for the day - https://youtu. be/s4n4Qc-d1_s
Once in 8 days there was tuna, octopus salad, figs, arugula. Nothing more interesting.
Weathered cucumbers, tomatoes were sometimes used as decoration. There was always green peas, bell peppers, fat donuts, bread, green pears. Sometimes there were guava, dates, grapes, melon. I didn't like the sweets either. It seems that there was a task to fill the empty space in the window with something and they put all kinds of game. We were not hungry, we managed to fill our stomach with something)) Although it is strange that they fed us like that, given that there were many Italians. And if you are standing in line, and they come up, then you will continue to stand until they are served)) This is the concept of the hotel))

Please note that the hotel does not provide drinking water. You can collect water from the cooler in your own bottle or buy it. Dahab Center is five minutes from the hotel. Wi-fi in the hotel is paid, it is better to buy a card when leaving the airport. The room has only liquid soap, shampoo and shower gel you need to take with you.
The BEACH is large and spacious. The pontoon on Farsha beach is destroyed.
Slowly we began to renovate. There were always enough sun loungers, but even before breakfast there were a lot of busy people. The coral on the inside of the beach has been killed. Some vacationers walk along it and do not hear the whistles of the guards ((It is difficult to swim across the corals at low tide and some climb over the fence of the Reef Oasis hotel to enter the water from their pontoon. Often their guard is on duty near the fence and does not let them through. We swam all over the bay to the beach El Fanar. The reef is interesting. There is nothing to do there without fins. There are places to swim. On the inner beach it is better to swim in corals, there are a lot of sea urchins. There is a toilet on the beach, but if you need a shower, you will need to go up to the Stuffing Cafe. While there get burned even more)). You can walk to the beach and back without steps on the ramp. The wave pool is open for several hours in the afternoon.

On the beach in a tent, you can easily take water, grain coffee (delicious!
), beer, juices, cola, fanta, sprite, local rum, whiskey, gin. There is no wine in the hotel. What surprised me was that you can swim in the pool at any time. No one is expelled from the sea either.
There is no desire to come back here. There are hotels in Sharm cheaper by $ 70-100 with better food and the same cool reef.
