We returned from Egypt a week ago, and all hands did not reach to write a review. I remember that I promised...
Movenpick hotel is not bad. And in general, the data of 5 stars corresponds to reality. I'll put it in order:
The hotel is huge. Long curved building with 4 floors. large landscaped area. The territory is really very beautiful, all sorts of bridges, an artificial pond in which geese swim, green lawns. Nice to walk, pleasing to the eye.
Large room. Separate bathroom, separate shower, bidet, mirrors, various cabinets and bedside tables. From our balcony, the border was visible, a little sea, a pond, mountains. The location of the room was not very convenient - to the main restaurant, retsepshena 10 minutes walk, could be closer.

The sea is also about 10 minutes away. The beach is long, the sunbeds are set apart from each other. There could have been more of them. everyone occupied them from early morning, and if you are already walking at 10 o’clock, you can’t find free ones. It remains then the option to look for sun loungers around the pool. on the first day, they found sunbeds for us and gave new towels and opened an umbrella, then you can’t expect so much attention from the beach staff. Beach towels are old through one. We were usually given like this - one new one old. sandy shore. But there are stones near the entrance to the sea and in the sea itself. We need special slippers - it's easy to cut your foot, and it's unpleasant to walk on stones. Do not buy slippers and other tinsel like masks, fins, pipes, souvenirs at the hotel. Expensive. check out a hotel near the Hilton. There is a mini-bazaar where all this can be found at half price. There is a beautiful reef on the beach near the border fence with the Hilton in the sea. There everyone swims with masks, and even with scuba gear. Not a lot of fish, and not a little, enough to see.
In Movenpick there is a large hall where the reception is located, and here is the pharaoh bar. The main restaurant is located one floor below. The food at the hotel pulls from 10 points to 6. There is nothing unusual, everything is quite simple. Breakfast is eggs in different forms (scrambled eggs, scrambled eggs, boiled eggs), yogurt, toast, sausages (soy tasteless), sausage, cheese, a large selection of pastries. For lunch and dinner, there is always fish, chicken, beef, minced meat, stewed vegetables, side dishes - rice, pasta, potatoes, as well as fresh vegetables, cheese, cold appetizers - various salads (they did not attract my attention), fruits. For lunch and dinner, coffee and tea are not provided, you had to approach the staff yourself and ask. They brought, but not immediately 10-15 minutes happened to be carried. Special attention is occupied by sweets - a large table of various desserts. There are always fresh vegetables as well. I did not like the fact that the hotel does not provide snacks. Although all guides say that they should be at the beach bar, we did not see anything like that. this is a big minus. because between the main meals in the main restaurant you want to eat.
Cleaning the room is not entirely clean, but there is not much dirt either. We left a tip to the cleaner only once on the first day. The next ones he depicted to us from towels of swans, flowers and so on. Then he stopped, but they did not leave him any more tips.
We did not go on excursions. The hotel guide offered an excursion to Israel for $170. They thought it was expensive, but they didn’t want to look for it themselves. So we stuck around in the hotel without going anywhere. But we don't want to. We went for a quiet relaxing family vacation. and found him. There is nowhere to go close. The hotels are far apart from each other. The distance between them is large, but there is nothing in this territory. Hole in one word. Those who went to Cairo said that everything is calm there. in Taba, too, there was no danger to vacationers.

Animators are almost inaudible. In the evening they put on a show - they danced themselves. Also not something interesting. You can see, well, and after that there is nothing to do. You can smoke hookah at the beach bar for $4. that's all in general. =)
