Good afternoon!
Stayed with my husband for 2 weeks. Initially, we were ready for what Egypt is, the level of service, etc. But no matter what, we had a good rest. Frankly speaking, the hotel is worthy of a solid good European 3 *. Good 3*. Clean, green, neat. And I must say right away that the hotel is worth the amount that we paid for the ticket. And now in order. And I'll start with the negative.
1. Cuisine: monotonous, the choice seems to be large, but there is actually nothing to eat. For breakfast, they ate only toast with honey and buns. You could still eat an omelet, but on the third day it was no longer possible to look at it. Lunches were enjoyable. We ate at a restaurant right on the beach near the pool. Chicken, meat, ryaba, spaghetti, rice. Buns, ice cream. The lack of fruits and vegetables was upsetting, although, in principle, the food was tolerable. We didn’t get better, we didn’t overeat. So that's even a plus : )

2. Rooms: lived in the main building. Direct access to the sea. Perfectly. I do not envy the guests who lived in a bungalow further away. Walking downhill is probably not easy. The number was given without problems and without money. Already as a "thank you" left 10 USD. at the reception. Room service is good, the room is rather big, everything you need for a couple. The child will be tight.
3. Sea: good! Orange sand, deck chairs, umbrellas, "fences". The entrance is cleared, but slippers are a must. Near the hotel, the reef is living its last days, but there are a lot of fish, especially if you swim a little further away from the rest of the vacationers. With a mask, it's great. Several times we went snorkeling with divers to a distant reef - very beautiful - corals, fish, good instructors.
4. Territory: green, neat, around the mountain. The only downside is construction next door. but it does not "go", they just built the frame of a new hotel. It wasn't particularly stressful.
5. Animation: yes, fun. In the morning - exercises and water aerobics, in the afternoon - water pollo, volleyball, belly dance, darts - we did not participate in this, but the animators did their best. Several times in the evening in the bar "Fatush" on the roof of the restaurant "A la carte" guys performed national dances. Pretty good, I can’t call it amateur performance, but the dance “with a skirt” won us over in general. It's really beautiful.
6. Excursions: were in Jerusalem, Bethlehem and the Dead Sea with Apple Tour (here they wrote Anna for a long time) - 90 USD from a person. Pegasus offered for 175. Think for yourself : )
That's all. I want to add that we are not picky tourists, but we are also looking for good service. And they were more than satisfied with the rest. The only thing that I don’t recommend this vacation to those who want to have fun and hang out is waste your time. But for those who want to calmly, well and unpretentiously relax on the seashore - just right.
I wish you all a good holiday!
