Хороший отель для позитивных людей! Good hotel for positive people!

Rested from November 13 to November 27.2012. I am a family, wife and daughter (5 years old). Arrived with TEZ so the meeting and transfer is flawless. We reached the hotel in half an hour. A porter was already waiting for us at the porch of the hotel. The guide took us to the reception and bowed, thanks to him. We arrived at the hotel at 9:00 and check-in at 14:00. There are two options here either to leave things in the storage room (which is free of charge) and go swimming and sunbathing until 14-00 or give a bribe of $ 10-15 to change clothes in the room and go sunbathing and swimming =). Personally, I paid because I was ready for it. In gratitude for the fee, we were settled with a view of the sea and mountains in the building closest to the sea on the 3rd floor.
Room: A spacious room with a high ceiling and a giant bed (5 or 6 people can easily sleep on it) for a child, a full single bed was brought 10 minutes after settling. Balcony overlooking the sea. Also in the room there is a safe (free of charge), a TV (3 Russian channels), a mini fridge (just right for fruit), air conditioning (works flawlessly). The bathroom has a hairdryer and shampoos, but there is no bath itself; there is only a shower, but it works properly. Cleaning was carried out every day, washed the floor, changed bed linen and bath towels (by the way, there were a whole bunch of them, you can wipe the floor of China). I didn't tip the cleaner. But the quality of cleaning from this did not fall. The room is locked with an electronic lock and opened with a plastic card at the reception, you can get several of these cards (for each family member with their own card) for free.
Beach, sea and weather: The weather was wonderful, it was always sunny (in the first days we even burned out), only a couple of days a strong wind blew, but it did not interfere with swimming or sunbathing. The beach is spacious, sandy, there were always free sunbeds, a good entry into the sea to a depth of 10-15 meters (just perfect with children). You can also immediately go to the depth from the pier there is a ladder. There is windsurfing rental, diving club. To the left of the beach, a man with a camel came to the diving club and rode for $ 5 / 15 min willingly photographed with a camel. There are a lot of corals to the left behind the pier, the old dismantled pier from which only pillars (20 pieces) remained on them and corals grew, it all looks like a fairy forest where hundreds of fish and a flock of squid scurry about. And in the mornings to the right of the pier, a fasting turtle sails (large 100 kg no less).

Food & Bars: We, like everyone else, had all-inclusive, so we permanently ate or drank something. ! ATTENTION! follow a diet, otherwise in two weeks I ate 11 kg !! ! So in order.
Breakfast: scrambled eggs, scrambled eggs, sausages, French toast, just toast (which you fry yourself in the toaster), porridge, boiled potatoes, cereals, vegetables, tea, coffee, pastries, juices (not quite natural but tasty) and citruses with sweets. also two cooks cooked pancakes and scrambled eggs right in the hall.
Lunch: Two types of soup, two types of pasta (pasta), potatoes (baked or mashed or both), two types of rice, chicken, meat, fish, salad bar, sweets, tea, coffee and citrus. You can also dine at the beach cafe, food is served in portions by the waiters to choose from shawarma, hamburger, fish in batter and pasta. French fries go with the first three courses.
Dinner: about the same as lunch, only two chefs are added in the hall who prepare different national dishes. Oh, and more fruits to choose from. During lunch and dinner, waiters bring alcohol.
They also serve ice cream twice a day. Between breakfast and lunch, buns are served at the beach cafe. They say there is still an afternoon snack, but we have never seen it because it's an hour's sleep.

Alcohol starts pouring at 10-00 and ends at 23-00.2 bars open in the morning. The first one is in the beach cafe (there are often queues) and the second one is right in the pool (15 meters further than the beach one, but there are no queues). In the evening they are closed and open a bar in the lobby (it is called the Lords Bar and is made in the style of a European pub, only they are poured into glass there) and a terrace in the center of the hotel. On the terrace you can order a hookah costs $3. They pour local drinks such as Rum (it turned out to be very good), brandy, whiskey, gin, vodka and of course Stela (local beer). They pour into plastic there is a disposable cup (beakers of 100 grams each) and reusable ones with a capacity of 250 grams (you need to keep such a glass for the whole rest to wash yourself and don’t give it to anyone, otherwise you will drink only from beakers). The bartenders are not mischievous and pour four or even six beakers at a time. Although one young bartender from the terrace was mischievous for three days, but then he calmed down and everything became very good again. But in fact, the incident with the bartender did not affect the quality of the rest.
Entertainment: An animation team "Crazy Frog" worked on the territory of the hotel, their leader is the Moor Simba. Respect to the whole team constantly arranged something that did not let you get bored. Every morning on the beach they started with dancing, then volleyball, boccia, aqua aerobics, gymnastics, mini disco and an evening show with the invitation of local artists, as well as competitions among tourists. And after 23-00, a floppy disk started, but there were always few people on it, they poured booze there already for $ 5 per beer, and the DJ played only Latin and Russian pop music (at which station he could find such horror). From 10-00 until lunch there is a children's club where children draw and play different games without parents. There is a playground near the beach, it is very convenient to play volleyball and watch your child. There is ping-pong (2 tables) and table football (free of charge). Tennis court and football ground (I don’t know how much it costs, I didn’t use it). There is a rocking chair, but as for me, it’s rather weak, there are no bars, it’s seriously not possible to practice in it, but it will come down to keep fit, all the more so for free, though. Beauty salon mainly massage and sauna prices do not bite 10 massage sessions and a sauna cost $150.
Safaga and surroundings: We went to Safaga once, which I regret because Safaga is a shitty, miserable shitty village. Dirt, devastation, squalor and poverty reign there, it seems that the revolution took place not in Cairo, but in Safaga. Hurghada is just Monte Carlo compared to Safaga. There is nothing to do there at all, the prices are the same as near the hotel and you still need to get to it. It is best to buy fruit from the left of the hotel, a store called "Fruit Market" is a clean store with electronic scales on the store it says that it has fixed prices, but in reality it is easy to bargain there. To the right of the hotel there are shops with souvenirs, and in the hotel itself there is a shop with the usual Egyptian prices and a slightly silly seller. And if you leave the hotel and go straight towards the mountains, then after 2 hours of travel you will wander to an abandoned military base in the desert and you will be able to take a cool photo. It is better to take the Internet in the Yasmin cafe to the left of the hotel after 500 meters, it costs about 50 our rubles per hour.
The hotel is about 40% Russian 40% Germans, the rest of the Poles, Arabs, Italians. Of the compatriots, the people from St. Petersburg and Yekaterinburg prevailed, everything behaved adequately, no one quarreled with the locals, in general, there was no need to blush for fellow countrymen.

The hotel is ideal for a relaxing holiday with children and adult couples. If you want to break away and hang out properly, then you should choose a hotel in Hurghada.
Pros: Great beach, low price, territory, food, polite staff, peace and quiet, children's entertainment, you don't have to leave the hotel at all.
Cons: beakers instead of normal glasses in a bar, lack of bars and clubs in the area and normal shopping.
I would love to stay in this hotel again!
