When choosing a hotel, we were guided by a smooth entry into the sea for a child and the opportunity for a husband to dive with a mask and fins. The agency advised Iberotel Fanara, which we were satisfied with. The hotel is half an hour from the airport (we had a private transfer booked). Most importantly, there is life around the hotel. Before that, we rested in Sharks Bay, there was nowhere to go for a walk. There is also the 1001 Nights complex nearby, where you can just go in the evening by paying purely symbolically 15 pounds per person (this is without a show). A little further is the street "El Mercato" with shops and cafes. Everywhere is not crowded, there are not so many tourists after the revolution. At the same time, it is very calm, only annoying merchants, and everything is guarded by the police. The hotel itself is very cozy, small, the area is green, the main pool is heated. Unfortunately, they only swam in it. The air temperature on New Year's day was about 20 degrees, there was a wind. It was cold to enter the sea. Although my husband swam twice to the Reef Oasis and back. Now about the numbers. It was very difficult for us to accommodate the three of us in a room, since we booked rooms at the Residence. I had to pay extra to be moved to the Club, which is closer to the main pool. Tip, if there are more than two of you, do not book a room at the Residence, there is simply nowhere to put an extra bed. Cleaning was done daily to a good standard. The food at the hotel was excellent, bottled water everywhere, espresso and cappuccino for free, good quality alcohol (we drink little), we took whiskey and cola and cocktails in the lobby bar. Very nice animators, all the time occupied my son, he was delighted, he even learned a few phrases in French. We decided to saturate our holiday with an excursion program. The tour guide turned out to be more expensive than the companies that offer tours on the Internet and outside the hotel. We chose a company on the Internet and on their website votpuskegypt. com ordered tours, paid directly on the bus. We flew with them to Luxor and traveled to Ras Mohamed by bus. They were very satisfied. The hotel left a good impression, we would like to return again.
