Purely by chance I chose a hotel, put it on a scale of 8 to 10, it was one of the few I liked because it is a relaxing holiday, so I reacted to it. We arrived at 9 am, we were offered the choice to leave things and go to eat or check in immediately, in general, the check-in went very quickly and we managed to eat and settle on time. … More ▾ Purely by chance I chose a hotel, put it on a scale of 8 to 10, it was one of the few I liked because it is a relaxing holiday, so I reacted to it. We arrived at 9 am, we were offered the choice to leave things and go to eat or check in immediately, in general, the check-in went very quickly and we managed to eat and settle on time. The room is a bit old and tired, the hotel is in the Moorish style, but everything was clean, the plumbing was new, there was always hot water in any quantity, there was a beautiful view from the balcony overlooking the sea. It is where our beach is mostly sand, the entry into the sea is good, after a couple of meters there is a coral reef, but young. And a little further on the big coral reefs have a choice. The food is excellent, breakfast is standard, but lunch and dinner are chic, several types of meat, chic fish in batter, always vegetables, fruits, salads, drinks without restrictions. Excursions we were offered a shaft, but we came just to relax and swim.

I chose the hotel randomly, according to the rating (you rarely see 9). He met my expectations 100%. A variety of food (meat, fish), drinks without any problems, an excellent beach (and delivery to it), it's all great, but for me the main thing was that there was a choice. Do you want animation, auto-party, diving, excursions, etc. … More ▾ I chose the hotel randomly, according to the rating (you rarely see 9). He met my expectations 100%. A variety of food (meat, fish), drinks without any problems, an excellent beach (and delivery to it), it's all great, but for me the main thing was that there was a choice. Do you want animation, auto-party, diving, excursions, etc. - without problems, everything that your heart desires is offered to you - but they are not imposed. And if you need silence, peace and complete relaxation - please. I don't know how they do it, but you choose and you get what you want. In addition, excellent staff both at the hotel and on the beach.
The only negative is the road - from Sharm 3 hours drive (the bus is comfortable and stops if necessary), but after 4 hours of flight another 3 is hard. Taba has its own airport, but for some reason ours don't fly there - it's a pity. Location is great

We liked everything. Very good hotel staff. The kitchen and the attitude of the staff are beyond praise. The only thing is that the territory is such that you need to go to the beach by bus. Because this is not the 1st line, but you have to go, walking is inconvenient. And the beach itself is not very good, there are no corals, it is impossible to dive. … More ▾ We liked everything.

And you need to go to a nearby beach. When we rested, they were not very loyal there. He asked for $ 10 for the entrance to that beach, but we tried to avoid these moments. As I understand it, there is one owner for all 4 hotels. We talked with the manager to be able to visit our beach and the neighboring one, because you can have a good rest there. And so, everything is quite good.

During the rest, my wife and I got a little poisoned, but we got sick for only one day. Golf club in front of the hotel pleased. The sea is wonderful, the service is at the level. Be prepared for the fact that there are very few people and at 7 pm the hotel is already quiet, suitable for families, not for young people. … More ▾ During the rest, my wife and I got a little poisoned, but we got sick for only one day.

There are only 5-6 people on the beach in the morning, but they were already pulling up by lunchtime.

Good hotel. The settlement went quickly. We had an early flight at 10:00 we were already at the hotel, check-in at 14:00. The bracelets were put on immediately, the number was shown first, they asked our opinion, they asked for $ 10 for what would be settled immediately. Of course they agreed, the room is huge, clean with a view of the sea and Jordan. … More ▾ Good hotel. The settlement went quickly.

The bracelets were put on immediately, the number was shown first, they asked our opinion, they asked for $ 10 for what would be settled immediately. Of course they agreed, the room is huge, clean with a view of the sea and Jordan. Water was given every day for three liters, plenty. The bar on the beach and near the pool is so different. On the beach they poured twice as much and with a smile, not like near the pool. The food was delicious and there was always something to choose from. There are few fruits. Well, not what.
I was upset at one moment after the next cleaning, the T-shirt disappeared, we reported this to the reception desk and promised to find it, it didn’t work out, probably someone liked it. We left at night, in a hurry, forgot dry rations, no one reminded us, we had to buy nasty sandwiches at the airport at a crazy price.

The hotel was about half full (in our opinion). The sandy beach is constantly clean, it is cleaned in the morning and evening, there are enough sun loungers, since most tourists relax by the pool, on the slides. Up to 10 people on the beach until 9 am, then they drove by bus from our hotel and from others, but no more than half of the sun loungers were occupied. … More ▾ The hotel was about half full (in our opinion).
The sandy beach is constantly clean, it is cleaned in the morning and evening, there are enough sun loungers, since most tourists relax by the pool, on the slides.
Up to 10 people on the beach until 9 am, then they drove by bus from our hotel and from others, but no more than half of the sun loungers were occupied.
Near the beach there is a diving center and an equipment shop, where you can also get advice and arrange all kinds of excursions and water attractions such as banana, tablet, parachute (parasailing), as well as a trip on a yacht with a dive, an excursion to the island of the pharaohs, etc.
We did not use their services, but observed how other tourists actively took part in these entertainments.
There are massage services on the beach, and the staff is not intrusive, including those with excursions - once they offered and told in detail about the service (no more than 5 minutes), after a couple of days they reminded of themselves and since we did not express a desire, we were not bothered. In general, the service is not intrusive. The staff is always welcoming, friendly and customer oriented. This score is 10 out of 10.
The entrance to the sea for the first couple of meters is large pebbles (we went without shoes), then a pleasant fine sand, a depth of more than two meters begins after 25 meters from the shore, this suited us quite well since we were resting with a child.
There are no corals and fish on this beach, but there are on the beaches of neighboring hotels, where you can easily get there by bus, which runs every hour from 8 am to 1 am.
There is a bar on the beach where the all-inclusive system works for everything except bottled and canned drinks.
There is also a small playground and a volleyball court where we played volleyball.
We went to the beach on buses, with very cheerful and friendly drivers from 8 am to 18-45 they go on schedule.
Walked once but it's 20-25 minutes through the golf course in the desert.
There were days when we were alone on the beach until 9 in the morning and up to a dozen people of the staff were always ready to kindly help and offer their services, for example, raise the backs of the sunbeds for us, lay and tuck towels on the sunbeds, they will cheer us and the child, And even when vacationers became more the attention of the staff did not become less.
Special thanks to the bartender at the beach bar for delicious cocktails, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic for children, and he made them exactly the same in appearance so that the children would be more interesting and more fun, and adults too.
The beach area, although not very large (the length of the ennobled area is about 80-100 meters), but very beautiful - a lot of greenery and palm trees, large and small, flowering bushes, paths from the road to the bar and sunbeds, which are under stationary large wooden umbrellas and a cover from dry palm leaves, as well as protection from the wind with sand.
10 out of 10 for the beach and infrastructure.
The sea is clean, the water is clear - you can see the bottom, sometimes rare fish swim.
Every morning they put a plastic panton, bring it by boat and fix it a little away from the entrance to the sea, which is opposite the sunbeds. They use it both to enter the sea and for tourists to enter the boats for excursions and attractions,
Nearby there is a marina for yachts, sailing sightseeing ships and boats.

Rested from 15 to 22 September 2019. Two adults and a 5 year old child. Chosen according to the reviews of tourists. The main selection criteria were the attitude of the staff towards tourists, a minimum of "ours" and entertainment for children. And we were not mistaken in choosing this particular hotel from fifty offered to us by various agencies and studied by us on various sites. … More ▾ Rested from 15 to 22 September 2019.

And we were not mistaken in choosing this particular hotel from fifty offered to us by various agencies and studied by us on various sites.

Flight Kyiv-Sharm el-Sheikh - Bukovyna Airlines - no complaints, corresponds to the economy class. Join UP! - the transfer is chic (they took only the three of us in a comfortable minibus with the inscription VIP. although we did not order an individual transfer, since its cost is half the cost of the entire tour package for three, but it turned out to be an individual transfer, since only we went to Taba. )
On the way to the hotel, our hotel guide Mohamed called the driver’s phone and talked to us in Russian, asking if we were already in Egypt and specifically in Taba, if we wanted to visit Israel and Jordan during our stay at the hotel, to which we replied that were in Taba and visited all possible excursions and this time we do not plan to leave the place of stay, because we have a child of 5 years old and it will be tiring for him, the guide answered us that if there are any wishes related to his work - contact us by phone or viber, leaving us your contacts. He also said that we would still have time to have dinner at the restaurant upon arrival, since dinner is until 22:00, and arrival at the hotel will approximately be around 21:00, wished us a pleasant stay and promised not to disturb us again.
And he fulfilled his promise, warning about the departure and transfer from the hotel to the airport six hours before our departure from the hotel, which suited us perfectly and the guide's rating was 5 out of 5.

Upon arrival at the hotel (the travel time was about 2.5-3 hours), at the reception in Russian we were offered to have dinner or check in first, we first checked into room 4102, where we were shown, and the porter also helped to carry things. The room was on the second floor, a little distant from the central part of the hotel, a two-story building. And then we realized that this was a thoughtful act of the hotel staff, since there is a quiet and peaceful place away from the noise of animation, music near the pool, and places of tourist concentration, which is important for families with children.

The room is standard without frills, as in the photo of the hotelier and most tourists on the site, but with a sea view and this pleasantly surprised us because the Garden View room was ordered.
After checking in, we had dinner on the beautiful terrace of the main restaurant with a gorgeous view of the Red Sea, the coast of Jordan and Saudi Arabia, glowing with the lights of their cities. We watched the animation by the pool and went to rest in the room, as the road was long and we were tired.

The rest of the days of our vacation passed like a moment, but how many positive emotions and impressions we received from staying at this hotel cannot be expressed in words - they will last exactly for a whole year, and our son, we are sure, will be remembered for a lifetime.

In more detail food, drinks, service, sea, beach, road to the beach, reefs, corals, fish, excursions, swimming pool, water park - I will describe in the second part of the review.

Arriving at the hotel at about 20.00 we were immediately accommodated, spent in a room. Room nice clean new plumbing, safe, air conditioning all worked, view from the window on the sea and mountains. all arranged for the room did not pay extra.

Then they took us to dinner. The food is delicious, the choice is great, everything was always enough for everyone, the waiters delivered drinks. Beach: beautiful, constantly cleaned, enough skis for everyone, the bar was open from 10.00-17.00.

Entrance to the sea a little pebbles and then sand, the bus runs to the beach from 8.00-18.00.

There are many shops, a market, a pharmacy, souvenirs, oils, etc. There are 2 tours of the agency where you can take tours much cheaper than the guide, they have tours from Taba and the guide still has to pay extra for the transfer.

Free wifi is available throughout the property.

Swimming pool with slides, there is a pool bar.
We really liked the rest, the hotel is very decent, the staff is polite and always wants to please in everything, the hotel staff actually all speak English. language. Poles, Czechs, Egyptians, Jews, Germans, and few Ukrainians have a rest in the hotel.

we recommend the hotel unequivocally!

The service at the hotel was adequate, we were settled immediately after we arrived. The room was clean, cleaned every day without any problems. The territory is not big, but well-groomed, there were shops on the territory. You had to go to the beach by special transport, buses are free, they take you to the beach from your hotel, and you could choose to go to the beaches of neighboring hotels. … More ▾ The service at the hotel was adequate, we were settled immediately after we arrived.

The beaches differ in that some were with a reef, others with a smooth entry into the sea. We didn't go on excursions.

We are going to Taboo for the New Year holidays from 12/26/12 to 01/07/13. Can you please tell me what kind of clothes to take? Is it even worth taking T-shirts, shorts, or even not taking up space in a suitcase.
