I will touch on the most important topic that characterizes the hotel. NUTRITION.
Friends, take care of yourself, read the reviews. Since 2017, people have been writing that the food is bad and scarce. I did not believe it, I decided to check it out for myself, now I am writing. There is NOTHING in the hotel, the cooks do not know how to cook, spoil the food. Weathered vegetables that will be cut into your salad in the evening and poured with an incomprehensible sauce.
Fruits are melons, bananas, tangerines and once there was a peeled pomegranate.
From hot. It costs 5 vats, they usually contain rice, chicken (the only thing that could be eaten), stewed vegetables, tasteless tough meat.
Then there are two hot stations, one with pasta (but it's just pasta, which the "cook" pours with tomato or cream sauce). I asked him to add garlic, so he couldn’t even fry it normally. It was pasta with fresh garlic! The second station with meat from the coals. There was a rubber duck, an inedible liver (who pancake roasts a liver on charcoal? ) and a chicken.
Everything hot! And what, have you come here? )))
But the chef comes out in the evening in a cap and uniform all so handsome. It seems to me that he has never even tried what he cooks.
Then there is a table with fresh pastries, which do not differ from each other.
That's all diversity.
The phrases of people who say “you won’t stay hungry” are completely incomprehensible. I’m wondering, are you really going on vacation, paying money just to get along with a piece of bread? I want to get edible food for my money.
I filmed how they are fed in this hotel, write to me by mail zuika18@gmail. com I will send the video to Votsap.
Service is a separate issue.
He is not here. Customers are the last thing on their mind here.
Asked the front desk to bring a bottle of water to the room. They said of course! They didn't bring it.
I asked to fix the air conditioner in the room, like the first time, they said we'll do it! In general, 7 days without air conditioning.
All decent hotels ask you if you need to wake up, and act according to your desire. But this hotel does not know what service is, so they decide for you. Yes, so that you have a heart attack, not otherwise. The TV turned on at full volume at 6 in the morning! Just imagine, you have an early check-out at 7:15, you got together from the evening, prepared everything, and decided to sleep peacefully, but no, in the middle of the night the TV turns on and the Arabs yell at the whole room. You turn it off, but in general the heart is ready to jump out with a fright. Trying to sleep a little more, the TV turns on again and again with crazy volume! 10 minutes pass and the phone starts ringing. In the modern world, when everyone has an alarm clock on their phone, this is how they will wake you up.
Everything is done so that you never want to come back here. Hotel for one night.
Finishing my review, I’ll say it again, read the reviews, because in them since 2017 people everywhere say that the food is bad, and the hotel administration hasn’t changed ANYTHING in 5 years, they absolutely don’t care about the reputation, including you !!!
All the pools are not heated, let me remind you, I went in December, when it is almost impossible to go into the sea. I don't need warm pools in summer.
Take care of yourself, choose another hotel.

We arrived in a large company (6 adults 1 child), so they asked us to settle nearby, the hotel employee Ali asked for $ 10 per day from each room, we naturally refused, apparently that's why we were settled in different directions.

Then, by the way, one room was provided for $ 40, but de lux was already ordered from them (the room was obviously not 35-40 sq. M in size). The troubles did not end there: 6 people were poisoned, which also did not add to the pleasant impressions. After arrival, I turned to the management of the hotel in Egypt, and to the head office - the reaction is zero, so do not be fooled by the words that they are waiting for us there and are happy, everyone is on the drum.

Do not believe the reviews of some exalted and unconscious people that this hotel is something like a branch of Hell on Earth. The hotel is good and sound. Great rooms, everything is kept in good condition. The area is very well maintained and clean. The territory itself is compact, and from the pool to the sea you need to walk 200 meters or more.

Do not believe the reviews of some exalted and unconscious people that this hotel is something like a branch of Hell on Earth. The hotel is good and sound. Great rooms, everything is kept in good condition. The area is very well maintained and clean. The territory itself is compact, and from the pool to the sea you need to walk 200 meters or more. The staff is very friendly, always helps when needed. The exception is the bartender of the beach bar, he seems to have been spoiled by the Czech-Germans with his handouts ...Obviously, the hotel used to be focused on Germans, so everything is new, high-quality, English inscriptions. him. and Arab. languages. Russian (not to mention Ukrainian) is almost unknown here.
An unconscious woman wrote to Turpravda about garbage on the beach. True, the beach is clean, constantly cleaned, as well as the whole area. The cleaners in the rooms are very tactful, spinning swans and extorting money for it is not here.
On the 1st day I had a non-working safe in the room, the cleaner quickly called the master and the safe adjusted. I think Roshen chocolate will be a nice souvenir for these guys who clean up after you. The hotel is located near the desert, there is nothing but Carribean. The cuisine is not the strongest side of Egypt, for this hotel too. I did not like the food, monotonous, repeated every other day, the range of dishes is very poor.
The hotel announced 2 a la carte restaurants, worked only Italian, although the restaurant is not, in terms of dishes and their quality, a bad dining room. It was even disgusting. Contingent: Czechs, Poles, Ukrainians, Russians, Moldovan-Romanians, Germans, a lot of Egyptians. Yes, the Arabs are peculiar, numerous broods of children, women in black, on the tables a mountain of food that you can no longer look at, but they behaved normally, they do not notice the Europeans, and they do not.
The Rashkovans also behaved without Tagil, although they turned them into quiet, extinct avatars. Well, somewhere. . .

And this is the face of the hotel! you come in, and here the carpet that no one vacuums, never, the sofas in the stains, so dirty that sklro already and the pattern on them will not be visible. At the counter I remarked that it was time to wash this plate in front of my nose - wash) the door never! ! ! ! ! never washed, the dirt stuck around the handle
Fridays are probably a feature of the hotel, because in the main restaurant the chairs are so dirty, it's disgusting to sit down… and so everywhere, dirt, dirt, dirt… in the elevator the dust on the handle has become sticky…
Food. I don't know how to write that they cook well. Summer, fruit season, two for breakfast / lunch / dinner! ! ! ! ! types of fruit - melons and apples, apples and grapes, melons and oranges, and not the best qualities, as if something did not suit normal gons, brought in it, the grapes are a little rotten, apples are a little low-grade, etc. , etc. , wtf? ! ! Hotel 5 *? Was there rice for garnish in the morning?
So in the evening salad with rice, and then rice with pasta (a kind of local delicacy, well, ok) low
Service And from you stand in line! ! ! ! ! for pasta, for example, you will be served after all the locals, even if they are at the end of the queue, or look at you the one on the distribution of food and unfold, well! The impression that the guests strained them, we were not waiting for you here, when you finally dump it, it appears in 15 minutes, and I'll remind you Movenpick 5 * !! ! What has never been offered in any hotel, came with children, there are free rooms, but please everything for you, but not here!
I do not know who writes all these reviews about the "wonderful food", great service, etc.
The only plus of all this is the sea, and by the way the beach is also dirty)))

We rested in this hotel at the end of June, the hotel was chosen based on reviews and price. What I want to say, or rather ask who writes these reviews? Hotel reviews 8.2, but in fact 6.5. In Egypt, the first time before resting only in Greece. The hotel is 70% filled with Arabs, there are Russians, Czechs, Albanians and Ukrainians.

We rested in this hotel at the end of June, the hotel was chosen based on reviews and price. What I want to say, or rather ask who writes these reviews? Hotel reviews 8.2, but in fact 6.5. In Egypt, the first time before resting only in Greece. The hotel is 70% filled with Arabs, there are Russians, Czechs, Albanians and Ukrainians. I'll start from the beginning: the divorce began already at the Airport: as I understand it, representatives of the Tez tour do not specifically meet at the Airport, but are already standing near the buses in order to give local floorers to earn money. We got the luggage and we hear the cries of the tour, yes ok to us there, the porter loads our suitcases on a cart and carries 5 meters, so a $ 5 service, and immediately transfers our suitcases to another spreader! Hawk! Then they found our bus themselves, got on the bus to say that it was dirty, to say nothing! After 1.5 hours we were at the hotel (we visited 3 hotels along Petya) arrived at 10:30 and settled immediately. He did not get breakfast until 10:00, nothing more was offered.
A deluxe room with a view of the mountains and ventilation ducts (above the kitchen) was all obsessively buzzing, they asked to change the room, they said you need to wait 2-3 days, they arrived for 7 days, they didn’t want to drag their suitcases and waste time moving. We had a large veranda, whoever is going take a fumigator (a lot of mosquitoes and flies). To the sea to go far though the first line. The red pool is warm. The beach is a lot of cigarette butts, even though there is a trash can with a squeak and the guys go around collecting garbage and robbing sand during the day! Bar on the beach: plastic shabby glasses, washed, no, not washed, but rinsed under the tap - I personally see it for the first time, but we drank from paper ones.
The food is poor, it seems that they were greedy, for example, if you ask to be ground, they will put 1 piece (1/4) for you and that’s enough, but you ask for more! Strained! For fuchs, there were melons, watermelon, apples, peaches, bananas, grapes, oranges, dates. For meat, chicken, beef, fish - bass pangasius. There was a grill in the evening 2 times there was a red mullet on the grill, but mostly chicken. No coffee (nescafe) at all! There is ground for a fee of $ 2. Alcohol on bars in plastic bottles! Service at the bar on the beach - ok, by the pool - we stand behind ice cream, we stand behind an Arab, and behind me an Arab - Arabs are served and we are invisible! When they found out that the attitude from Ukraine changed! The contingent of Russians is not very good! For example, on the third night, the beginning of the first (we slept with an open illness on this 4th one), a Russian neighbor drunk in the trash began to break into our room, he climbed over the restrictive 1.2 m between the balconies, it turned out to be interesting to him what was there (the rooms are identical)! Always drunk!
Animation Entertainment: the girls tried, but in my opinion they did not succeed! There were few people! There are enough sun beds, but we occupied the first row at 7 in the morning! A lot of people were busy and didn't show up all day! Mentality!! ! Strong wind! The sea is happy for children super-shallow, there is a spit, ebbs and flows! There are 3 corals, we saw a turtle, but there is nothing to see sand! Would I come back - no!

We chose a hotel specially, where it is quiet and calm, there are not a lot of tourists. We arrived at 10.00 in the morning, except for us at that time there was no check-in. We were seated immediately in a room overlooking the pool and the sea. The room had a small balcony, but there are rooms without. Of the three operating restaurants, only one is open.

We chose a hotel specially, where it is quiet and calm, there are not a lot of tourists. We arrived at 10.00 in the morning, except for us at that time there was no check-in. We were seated immediately in a room overlooking the pool and the sea. The room had a small balcony, but there are rooms without. Of the three operating restaurants, only one is open. When we got to the beach, there were no people! Sunbeds and all places near the sea are free, hooray! To the sea from the hotel 1 minute walk. The animation was weak, the music on the beach did not play. But there is ethereal yoga in the open air. When we left, the animators quit and invited others. The food is good, sushi, various types of salads, fruits, meat, pea soup surprised me, because in Egypt there is a problem with first courses, but this one was very tasty cooked. But as usual, on the 7th day of rest, *our* food is not enough, especially borscht and dairy, normal products. Alcohol...it all depends on the bartender.
Some made cocktails based on water and ice and without alcohol or very minimally (this bartender worked at the bar where the hotel is). Although, we gave him a tip. I will return to this bartender in the comments, for now, about the pros. For lovers of noisy entertainment, it will be boring, there is nowhere to go outside the hotel! But the sea is cleaner and the beach is better than in Hurghada. Near the sea line, you can walk to a nearby hotel, so many did, but not us.
A calm and boring vacation did not work out, as it might seem at first glance. We were lucky to meet very cheerful guys and therefore the rest was very bright! On the territory of the hotel there is one, a huge pool, where the bar is located. You can swim up to the bartender)). Beer on tap only, not in bottles. It will be great if the other 2 restaurants open, they are very beautiful. On the beach you can order quad bikes, and if you go further along the sea line, excursions are cheaper than with a guide. We took from him, we wanted without persuasion.
We were charged $30 per person, but it turned out that others paid $25. And as usual, half of what was promised on the tour was not there! I liked the rest, but 50% thanks to new acquaintances. Souvenirs are more expensive than in hotels near Hurghada. Sellers ask for our alcohol, they offer to exchange it for goods. The cleaner surprised me with different animals from towels, even hung a monkey at the entrance.
The staff is nice, but I've never seen anything like it. We sat at the table in the bar (he 1 is open until 23.00). There were 2 guys sitting nearby, quietly and peacefully. The bartender, whom I wrote about earlier, approached the guys, it was not even 22.00 and without a word, began to pull their table to the middle (as if preparing the tables for closing)! then went to the DJ and turned off the music. Prior to that, for three days, he always brought us an order and put it on a nearby, free table! Like, figure it out yourself! We are not proud people, but when once again he came up and began to take full glasses from the table, it was already enough!
We approached the animator and asked why the bartender turned off the music (it was not even 22.00, but they work until 23.00). The animator replied that the bartender said he wanted to sleep!! ! everyone must disperse! We approached him, asked in a calm tone, he pretended not to hear. His boss came out and didn't answer either. As it turned out later, this is his brother! That is why he behaved so arrogantly and aggressively! And when he said bad words to us, we went to the reception. Many managers came out, they said that we would not see him during our vacation, but ....he worked as he did. Only the face is not happy with our appearance! And they brought in an extra bartender when we showed up! He left for another room.
A very unpleasant story, now it’s clear why it’s not fun there in the evening. The bartender wants to sleep, and you vacationers should understand this! If not for this case, there would be no remarks.
We paid for the rest, and in the bar near the hotel, it felt like we came for free! And this is thanks to the bartender, who has a brother *bump* in this hotel. Who smokes, take cigarettes with you! Our friend bought 1 pack for $4 and it's the cheapest! Do not forget about white coal, sorbex, and other medicines. Everything in this pharmacy is expensive! in the bar near the pool from 15.00 to 17.00 movenpick ice cream free of charge. On the beach for money, and the bartender at Sadam Beach is *global*, very correct. There was a wind near the sea, the water is not very warm, but this is a plus for us. Refreshing in such heat, the tide was out once.

The hotel was chosen by our friends from Switzerland, with whom we were going to spend a vacation in Egypt - they wanted to windsurf, but at the last moment their trip was canceled, and we rested ourselves. The hotel is very nice. It seems nothing special - just a discreet European hotel, but everything is so clean, tidy, calm and relaxed that we enjoyed our stay from the first day to departure.

The beach and sea are wonderful. Clean sand, azure water. There is no snorkeling and corals near the hotel - this is true (only a few fish near the panton), but we ordered snorkeling at the point right on the Movenpick beach - the guys take a boat from the pontoon to the reefs for a reasonable price.
The food was good, the meat is very tasty, the desserts are generally fantastic - there is a magical confectioner))). Fruit is really scarce.
The staff is a special thanks. Our room was cleaned very well, all the employees on the territory, in the hotel itself and in the restaurant are friendly, ready to help, but not intrusive.
For such a price, I did not expect to get such a wonderful stay. Will we come again? Yes with pleasure.
The only thing is that there are many rooms without a balcony (although the rooms themselves are very good). We managed to agree on a room with a balcony - and drinking coffee there in the morning with a view of the lagoon was wonderful (custard was brought from Kyiv just for this purpose))). But if all the balcony rooms are occupied, it can be disappointing.

There is no snorkeling and corals near the hotel - this is true (only a few fish near the panton), but we ordered snorkeling at the point right on the Movenpick beach - the guys take a boat from the pontoon to the reefs for a reasonable price.
The food was good, the meat is very tasty, the desserts are generally fantastic - there is a magical confectioner))). Fruit is really scarce.
The staff is a special thanks. Our room was cleaned very well, all the employees on the territory, in the hotel itself and in the restaurant are friendly, ready to help, but not intrusive.
For such a price, I did not expect to get such a wonderful stay. Will we come again? Yes with pleasure.
The only thing is that there are many rooms without a balcony (although the rooms themselves are very good). We managed to agree on a room with a balcony - and drinking coffee there in the morning with a view of the lagoon was wonderful (custard was brought from Kyiv just for this purpose))). But if all the balcony rooms are occupied, it can be disappointing.

Beautiful and cozy hotel with an interesting lobby, comfortable European rooms. Stylish halls and corridors with photo paintings on the walls. Everywhere is clean, which is very pleased with the stay. The territory is compact with beautiful paths made of stone patterns, not very green, a lot of dry trees. But there are also nice places.

Beautiful and cozy hotel with an interesting lobby, comfortable European rooms. Stylish halls and corridors with photo paintings on the walls. Everywhere is clean, which is very pleased with the stay. The territory is compact with beautiful paths made of stone patterns, not very green, a lot of dry trees. But there are also nice places.
We arrived at the hotel at 20:00, the transfer from Hurghada takes 2 hours... we were brought last, after checking into 4 hotels. Settled immediately in the room after the repair (still felt a little smell of paint). The room has a kettle with a set of tea, coffee, sugar and milk powder, 1.5 liters of water per person (replenished daily), silent refrigerator, safe, hair dryer. A complete set of cosmetics: solid soap, shower gel, shampoo, hair conditioner, body gel (replenished daily), cosmetic wipes, cap. Air conditioning centralized and noisy. Bed linen and towels are of good quality and white. After 4 days they changed the bed, towels on request, if you throw them in a pile. Beach towels are rationed and can be changed at least ten times a day.
The food is not very varied, but mostly tasty. Breakfasts, as everywhere in Egypt, but with the addition of halva, packaged yoghurts and Belgian waffles, every morning there was freshly squeezed fresh juice from the chef, every morning different 50-70 g. For breakfast, lunch and dinner there were a lot of vegetables, but not enough fruit (two type for each meal that was not repeated was guava, strawberries, peaches, grapefruits, oranges, bananas, tangerines, melons). For lunch and dinner, one type of soup, rice, pasta and potatoes, with meat there was delicious soft beef, beef boiled pork, jacket, chicken (a little dry), a couple of times duck and turkey. With pangasius seafood and a day later squid stew with pangasius and vegetables, once there was a delicious whole fish fried in salt. Sweets are a feature of the hotel, you just can't get away from croissants, biscuits, eclairs and oriental sweets.
The food is served by the cooks, but it is not behind glass. All drinks are served by waiters. All meals in the main restaurant (from the beach 5-7 min walk). I wish the lunch was moved to the restaurant on the beach (which was closed), it is not very convenient in the heat to go from the beach to the main restaurant. The a la carte restaurants were closed as there were only 100 guests in the hotel. A la carte was made outdoors on the grass, placing tables on the lawn near the pool. The bars have packaged juices, but not in the main restaurant. Ice cream only 2 hours a day, from 15 to 17 at the pool bar. If you want to go to the bar on the beach, then you will have to pay $ 2 for ice cream. With alcoholic drinks, delicious beer, good dry red wine, aniseed vodka (ouzo), tequila.
The beach is large, with 8 rows of sun loungers, the first four rows with barriers from the wind. I was very pleased with the relaxation zone on the beach, in which only adults relax and managers from the SPA and sellers of excursions do not enter its territory. The sea at the hotel is for families with small children and vacationers who cannot swim. Up to 50-70 meters from the beach, shallow water to the middle of the thigh, in the middle of the shallow water there is a spit to the middle of the lower leg, until you reach the depth to swim, you have time to burn. You can go through this gap and on the pontoon. Although many liked the spit very much, they took warm baths there. On the shore there is very fine and light sand, the sea is turquoise-blue.
The beach has toilets, showers and changing cabins. The sea at the hotel is not for snorkeling, there are practically no corals and fish at all. There is a dead coral reef, above which a circle with a flag with a dozen tiny fish is tied, and that's all... Grass grows with single corals at a depth, if you swim to the right, you can see the remains of a muddy coral wreck, also with single fish, which instantly hide at the sight of a person. At a depth of 300-500 meters from the shore, you can see huge turtles that are terribly afraid of people and instantly, at the speed of a motor boat, swim away into the depths of the sea. Lucky to see the sea devil (manta). Swimming, we rejoiced at small stingrays, small butterfly fish and angels... All the fish that live in the grass of a grayish-greenish color are almost non-colored, there were not even parrot fish, lionfish and sergeants...
The pools are clean, unheated in April, an interesting pool bar with chairs in the water. There is a cocktail card, according to which you can order any cocktail of your choice. There is no water park in the hotel.
Animation at the hotel is active: exercises, aqua aerobics, bocha, volleyball, dancing, discos for children and adults in the evenings, karaoke, various competitions. The animators did not let you get bored, they raised the mood. Those who wanted to go to night discos were taken to Hurghada.
Wi-Fi throughout and in the rooms of good quality with excellent speed.
The staff is mostly friendly, helpful and helpful, very good waiters in the main restaurant (loved Mohamad Badawy, who mostly served our table, always in a good mood, not standing still for a second, serving very quickly) and chefs (except for the young chef in a black suit on vegetables, who served the food with great favor), liked the grill chef Ahmad, who, in addition to good service and delicious grill, gave Arabic lessons, always in a good mood, the bartender at the pool bar, hard workers beach-boys on the beach. Special thanks to the cleaners for the cleanliness.
Unfortunately, during the pandemic, not all staff were wearing masks with a closed nose, the masks were either on the beard or removed altogether. Sanitizers are full throughout the hotel. Tables were cleaned instantly with disinfectant, cutlery was sealed with a napkin. All dishes were perfectly clean.
On site there are shops with souvenirs, spices, oils, clothing, beach accessories and a pharmacy. The prices are exorbitant and almost never traded. Hurghada is 50 km away, the hotel is in the desert, the taxi is expensive, you need to take everything with you.
I liked the hotel, I can safely recommend it to lovers of a relaxing holiday, people who are tired of megacities.

We rested together, a good hotel for a relaxing holiday (not suitable for party lovers). There are few people, almost all in couples, few with children. The hotel area is large, the beach is 200 meters and very clean. Entry into the sea is shallow, but there is a pier 100 meters. The wind is not strong, as the beach is located in Soma Bay.

The hotel area is large, the beach is 200 meters and very clean. Entry into the sea is shallow, but there is a pier 100 meters. The wind is not strong, as the beach is located in Soma Bay. All restaurants, bars and animation worked. Spa, massage and sauna are closed, half of the shops in the hotel are also closed (coronavirus). The staff is very well-trained and very friendly, they meet you halfway in everything, for example, I agreed on the last day to stay in the room until 15-00 without additional payment (although check-out is like everywhere else at 12-00). All staff are wearing masks, regularly undergo PCR tests (I asked personally). The food is good, but no frills. Alcohol as elsewhere in Egypt.
Of the minuses is the distance to Hurghada (45 km) and old furniture in the rooms.
The price-quality ratio is on top, that is, a super hotel for the money!

The hotel is designed purely for relaxation, who wants discos and entertainment is not about him, you should come here to enjoy the silence. I also chose this hotel, since it is a system hotel, Movenpick is scattered all over the world, as a rule, such hotels have a system service. Settled in quickly. From the beginning, we were put in one room, but then we came up and asked us to change the room, since there were enough free rooms, we were moved to a larger room and they didn’t take money, it’s very nice.

Cons: Dirty windows. The food is plentiful, but no frills. I liked that the hotel is far from the city, from all this fuss. There is a sauna, there are massages, there is fitness, you don’t have to go anywhere. You can go there in pairs, there is practically nothing for children.
