Hotel ratings by criteria:
The room is large, nice with a balcony, on the balcony there is a plastic table with two chairs, a bathroom with a small bathtub, a bidet. The room has a free safe and a bar for a fee. One channel TV "ORT international". In the morning we woke up and decided to walk through the territory, the territory is really big, green, many flowers. The original pool (one) with bridges, one water slide. The “Grotto” bar is very interestingly made, in which they serve both from the side of the pool (you walk along the pool under the waterfall and sit waist-deep in water) or you enter the grotto from the side of the land , really original... (You will have to sign checks with zeros everywhere for drinks, be be careful with the numbers, see what you sign so that there are no surprises when you check out) All-inclusive alcohol is served in this bar from 11.00 to 23.00 and the Regatto bar.
Breakfast at the hotel from 6.30-11.00, lunch 13.00-16.00, dinner 18.30-23.00. Theme nights in bars (Egyptian, Arabic night, etc. for an additional fee - 30 dollars per person). The main restaurant where they ate - "Andalus" consists of a platform on the street - 15 tables, the upper hall (for tourists from Italy, France, Germany, etc. ) who eat according to the breakfast-dinner system and the lower hall (for tourists from Ukraine, Russia, Belarus) which have everything included. Of course, you can sit down in the upper room (it’s especially good there in the evening at dinner, there are candles on the tables, etc. ), although they will try to seat you in the lower room if you want to argue with you at another table. But then you need to keep track of the bills that will be brought for water, juice... so that there are zeros and explain that you have everything included. Then they reset the account in front of you and you sign on it. As for food, they don’t lose anything - potatoes that were not eaten yesterday you can see the next day more fried or in a salad , also with pasta. I really liked the fish, normal juice is served only for dinner and in bars, diluted Jupi for lunch and breakfast. From fruits - oranges, lemons, chopped apples poured with syrup, chopped figs... A good selection of sweets for dessert, buns, cakes, pastries. In general, the food was not spoiled much, but in principle it was tolerable.
If during our vacation we had not observed and experienced an incomprehensible poisoning: symptoms - fever, vomiting, diarrhea, dizziness, weakness. The first to fall ill were the Belarusians who came with us - the girl was taken to the hospital and paid 200 something euros (they called later from Minsk for medical insurance, the phones in Egypt were not answered). On the second day, the second pair lay down, pills, injections, etc. upon departure at the reception left 240 euros. After that, 4 more people from Kyiv, well, before leaving, my girlfriend. It was easier for us with wise experience the guys still had pills and a course of treatment... As far as they explained to us, this is not a bacterial or viral disease, but some kind of microbe causes the disease. How it enters the body is not clear (food, sea water, swimming pool or drinking? ), the guide from Pegasus said that this happens in the neighboring Hyatt hotel... In general, they were exhausted  ))))))

In the hotel itself, 30 percent are Russian speakers, 50% are Italians, the rest are Germans, French, etc. Therefore, the staff of the Russian language does not know, in principle, it does not tire. The place is really magnificent - on one side of the mountain on the other is the beach. The place is really for a relaxing holiday (there are no discos, animation comes from a neighboring hotel for 3-4 hours) umbrellas on the beach are 15 meters apart, sand, the entrance to the sea is like on Azov 100 meters, you have to walk knee-deep ))) In general, two-way the opinion remained about the rest, if it weren’t for the poisoning, I would put a solid 4. And so I think it’s not necessary to explain...
What pleased me was the close border with Israel - a 20-minute drive, an excursion to Jerusalem and the Dead Sea. It's worth it, bright and unforgettable...
If someone has a desire to go to Taba, and there I really advise the new Intercontinental Hotel well, communicated with people resting in it, there is something to compare with...
