flew in yesterday. I will try to write briefly, although emotions are still raging. traveled 4 vz + reb 3 years. before that they were in Turkey, Egypt, Thailand, Europe, so there is something to compare. my mom flew to both sharm and hurghada, her conclusion is the best hotel.
in order:
territory: everything corresponds to what has already been described. a lot of greenery, the sound of waterfalls. the hotel is stretched from the reception to the sea, so you will have to walk along the paths... but this is for the best, after such a feeding, activity is a must!!! ! we basically lay near the pool (bar, animation, and the breeze blows), and went to the sea to swim either before breakfast or after dinner. as for me it's hot on the beach, mostly Russians hang out there, for whom the sea is the main thing !!! ! what not so much to swim as just to note that you are at sea....

settlement: we were lucky, did not pay anything, just talked politely with the manager. lived in building 6 (closest to the sea), second floor. the rooms are spacious and very comfortable, cleaned well, on the bed and towels, to be honest, I don’t bother for a long time....in the end, they only spent the night in the room, and the child rested during the day. telly - plasma, but we included only a couple of times! once. shampoo, gel, body lotion set every day. a couple of times swans were twirling and flower petals were laid out. left a tip every other day somewhere, for a dollar.
pool: cool, big, not so many people. the water is clear before lunch, a little worse after lunch, but this did not bother us. the child swam, dived for an hour, they could not pull it out. there is also a small pool near the sea, but we did not swim there. and a cold pool in the spa center - there is only a photo.
sea: depending on the weather, and the number of people. it’s bad that people from other hotels come to the pontoon of the radisson and create a crowd. well -- the reef is really beautiful, the fish are cool, the water is warm, and the blue is blue.
food: ate only in the main restaurant. me very diverse. breakfast: omelettes with different fillings, you can just eggs, pancakes, potatoes, vegetables, some sausages, naturally cereals, yogurts, milk, there was always milk porridge for the child. lunch: soups, quite decent, french fries, pasta again with different fillers, several types of meat (chicken, turkey, lamb, beef), always fish. I am silent about different rice, vermicelli, tomatoes, cucumbers, greens. you can eat it at home too. dinner: on the same level. they gave grilled squids, sushi several times..... in short, the food stall was full.
we were ready for the fact that you need to ask the waiters for alcohol, so they always sat down in the same zone, on the very first evening they gave the boy a dollar, and then for 4 days they did not know any problems. and then SASHA (as he called himself) flew home. another Ahmed took his place, we waited a day for alcohol for 30 minutes, on the second my husband put a dollar in the guy's pocket, and everything fell into place.
In short, for all 10 days on tips (rooms, restaurant, baggage) we spent as much as 14 dollars !!!! ! nowhere else was given. just a courtesy and smiles.

they also wrote about alcohol: yes, not the highest class, but you can drink. gin tonic, beer, dad drank vodka, tried wine a couple of times, but didn’t like it. small drank sprite and milkshakes. ate ice cream. there was always ice, both on the beach and by the pool.
animation: at the beginning it was a five, but a few days before our departure, they apparently changed something and began to work worse. from children's toko mini disco. sports—excellent, water polo, beach volleyball, gymnastics, aqua aerobics, darts, boccia, and belly dancing. boys RESPECT! evening shows are good, but we were only a couple of times, and then not completely. every evening they take them to different disco in Naama Bay, the cost is from 15 to 35 dollars, we never went, but there were usually a lot of people.
and about the general: there are a lot of foreigners in the hotel, knowledge of English is welcome. Yes, sometimes there were queues in bars, but it didn’t bother me at all. another minus is not enough fruit: melons, oranges, guava were given, bananas, dates and watermelons several times. There were also apples and pears. but in Ukraine there is no shortage of either vegetables or fruits, so we did not suffer. you can go outside the hotel, there is a street with shops, but there is nothing special to buy except souvenirs. once you can walk.
went 2 times to PRAK INN to the water park, the first time in 5-slides up to 6, went fine, the second time, earlier, and problems started. in short, the water park is paid-12 euros per person. of course it doesn't make sense. just entering the territory, no problem.
we went to 1001 nights, the entrance is 25 pounds or 5 dollars, but it's easy to go and see, if with a show, then 18 dollars (excursions are carried for 25 dollars). got there by taxi for 8 dollars.
we also just went to Naama Bay, a minibus, a dollar per person usually. but we didn’t really like it there, noisy, crowded... for lovers of nightlife.
excursion: we went to the ABU GALUM reserve, we liked it. very saturated. bought on the street, 40 dollars. jeep safari in the desert, then swimming in the reserve (by the way, the reef in the hotel is the same in beauty and diversity !!!! ), camel riding. For lovers of extreme sports, I recommend.

In general, we have a good impression of the rest, but maybe something will change. because in the end there were more Russians and Poles, fewer foreigners. the animation began to work worse, more queues in the bar and restaurant. but in any case, the sea, the beach, the territory will remain unchanged, and this already means a lot for a good holiday!!!!
If anyone has questions, write, I will answer while everything is fresh in my memory.
