Buying a tour, we never think about safety, because they are used to the hotels always have cameras, everyone is resting quietly and the staff will protect their guests, but not in this hotel.
Due to the constant red flag at sea, we spent 95% of the pool. A few days before the end of the holiday, one pair (50 years) began to rest near us, the day before the departure "Women" gave a phrase to 2 women with 3 children "You Kuritsa", to which my colleague replied "We are not Kuritsa, but women", then that is the man "women" (reading as an asshole). While calling the staff for help, this asshole with his female just escaped. Turning to the reception for him to come and apologize we got a boom for 2 days and no reaction.
We also talked to the general manager, but the answer was one - we understand, one of the versions was "we sent a person to him in a room, but he did not open the door, and the neighbors began to complain about knocking on the door", but as it turned out it was my neighbor and I heard nothing and complained - a miracle.
Guide Bak did not even come to help us in the situation, to call the police and the receptions (for the more than 10 times 10 times in Egypt, I never even thought of contacting the police and I do not understand what procedure, because Arabic is clearly a barrier). Note that the cameras showed us and there is a video of a blow and a fall - to all spit.
The sea is a west of pontoon, there is almost no fishes because of dead corals. They bathed three times for all vacations, running immediately as they saw the yellow flag. Twice, when leaving the sea, they turned to the rescuer because they could not flow on their own due to a strong flow 2-3 meters from the steps. The west from the beach is a centimeter of 10-30 water on the plates.
Therefore, the sea is not suitable for children or adults.
Food - like everything in Egypt, the choice of other hotels is small, but you can always eat.
The rooms are normal at first glance, but everyone (we had 7 rooms) did not work, the kettle, the refrigerator, the mixer in the shower, the toilet flowed. All these remarks are: "2 minuts", the result: zero reaction.
Settlement is horror. We were moved and we arrived at 15 for settlement, but at 22:30, that is, we expected that the numbers would be ready (naive). The inhabitant began after 23, half of the settlement has already come out the next day.
Therefore, I do not recommend the hotel even with a big discount, because to relax by the pool with the feeling that you can beat you and no one will help you - doubtful pleasure for your money.

If you want to take a break from everyone and everything, then this is the place for you, complete relaxation, peace and quiet. The staff is friendly, but not intrusive, the food is delicious for any taste. A very beautiful underwater world, it cannot be described in words, it must be seen.

We arrived at 6-7 o'clock, and settled at 10. The room was normal, everything worked. Dirty hotel. The kitchen is not very. Those who have already vacationed in Egypt said that this is standard food for Egypt. . The animation is very weak. We went to see a manatee or otherwise it is called a dugong, Marsa Alam is almost the only place where you can look at it.

They flew to Marsa Alam out of pure curiosity. Previously Sharm and many times. The price of $ 630 for two + 25 visa from the nose, we were quite satisfied, and we did not expect anything like that for that kind of money. We arrived at the airport at dawn, at the hotel by the beginning of breakfast, which, as the guide told us while still on the bus, they were not going to feed us, only for $ 5! I have never met such greed, especially since we flew all night! At the lobby, we were treated to powdered lemonade and carefully warned that the services of the bar and the coffee machine could not be used before the investment.

Thank God, at least in the sea and the pool you can! )
We were settled at about two, although the hotel was half occupied. Number as a number, normal. It is noteworthy that all rooms have a sea view. The sea was often stormy, so it was not possible to swim every day. The beach is deserted and deserted, mostly lay by the pools. But... the coral reef is just a fairy tale, I have never seen anything like it! Imagine that you are flying in a helicopter over the green mountains, only instead of the mountains below you are beautiful reefs that go straight into the abyss! The hotel is bordered by another five, where we sometimes went out of boredom, and all this is surrounded by just a desert, where for $ 15 you can drive ATVs.
The guests of the hotel are mostly Poles, Germans and Arabs. Total savings were felt everywhere. There were no animators, dance groups performed on the terrace of the restaurant 3 times in the evening. There is also a disco - a column transferred from the pool bar, working on the flash drives of the DJ (he is also a waiter during the day), and on the guests' flash drives. There weren't enough wine glasses. We washed them in a hurry with just water, as well as plastic glasses by the pool, we were provided with herpes). We were not hungry, although the choice is not great, but for such money it is sufficient. Beer and wine nothing, the rest - the usual hotel swill, as elsewhere.
The staff is kind and slow. Wi-Fi only in the lobby, and then weak... besides, the air conditioning was often turned off in the lobby. The heat of 40 degrees was tolerated calmly, thanks to the dry climate, the pool, umbrellas near it and, of course, sometimes the sea. Massage for ours 25$, re 20. For foreigners 45 euros. There is a simulator, however, half of the iron did not work.
In general, a hotel for unpretentious people who value the reef, fresh sea breeze and tranquility. I do not recommend traveling with children. I really hope that now there is better in terms of service! Have a nice holiday!

We went to Egypt for the first time and expected something completely different. I did not like the territory and service here. Check-in was short, the room was cleaned up terribly. And in general, the number wanted to be better. Didn't like it here. The territory is less painful, and there is nothing outside the territory, no shops, no hospitals.

There is nowhere to go for a walk, only 3 hotels in the desert. There was almost no animation as such. There was nothing for the children at all. There was no children's menu. Food is not varied, the same thing every day. I would not recommend this hotel and I will not go there again.

Vacationing with my husband. The hotel was chosen on the advice of friends they once were here. In general, apart from the sea, we were not particularly interested in anything, so we were ready to turn a blind eye to some nuances. They settled us for 20 minutes maximum, the room was given for a long time not new, but with a view of the sea, which was very pleasing to the eye.

They settled us for 20 minutes maximum, the room was given for a long time not new, but with a view of the sea, which was very pleasing to the eye. Inside, everything was in working condition, the bed was large and comfortable, the plumbing was more or less, cleaning was done every day. The food is certainly not for gourmets, but the minimum set of dishes for us was. Potatoes, rice pasta, some gravy, some minced meat, chicken, pastries - all this is always there, so you won’t go hungry, that’s for sure, but there’s not much variety to admit. We took strong alcohol with us, we also took a first aid kit, and we bought local SIM cards upon arrival at the airport. Of course, you can write a lot about the beauty of the sea and the underwater world, but you need to understand that these places are suitable only for rare connoisseurs who will spend all their main time underwater and enjoy the views of living corals, a variety of fish and who are ready to spend all their time and calories looking for something interesting underwater. For a beach seal holiday, sometimes I myself like this one, you have to choose another place. There is no super entertainment in the hotel. There is animation, in the evening they hold various performances or shows on their own, sometimes it was really interesting, especially since there was nothing more to do, but we really were so exhausted during the day that we could already sleep at ten in the evening. The territory of the hotel is large, but not perfectly clean, they look after the pools. The staff is not bad, polite, there were no problems, no one really knows Russian. Vacationers are mostly Western Europeans, except for us, from the Russian-speaking, there was only a couple from Germany who moved to a foreign land 20 years ago and that's it. A week later, we got a little bored, so we decided to unwind in Luxor, although we were there four years ago, but during this time we opened several new venues and expanded the old ones, it was still very interesting. We also went out to the open sea on a boat, see the tours on the tibaturk. I think the hotel is worth the money, but the place is specific, it’s difficult to get here, I definitely wouldn’t go here with children, but we were quite satisfied with the rest, we got everything we wanted.

Far from the airport, heavy transfer. Settlements were also delayed in time. We arrived late at night, and put on the bracelets only before dinner, so we went to breakfast for money ($10 per person). Of the staff, only the cleaners of the rooms and some of the waiters were friendly. If you ask for a beer or a glass of wine, then in response you will receive a complete ignore or an offer to pay $ 3 each.

The food is monotonous, not tasty: cheeses and sausages are generally dangerous to eat, but pastries, especially croissants for breakfast, are great. The rooms in the hotel are in a somewhat neglected state: the socket is torn out of the wall and hanging with exposed wires (and if with children? ), there is no drainage net in the sink for washing, so there are some decorations on your hands, then you have to be very careful.
The shower cubicle is fenced with massive glass, which oscillates in all directions, and it seems that it is about to fall, besides, water runs into the pan so quickly and does not run away from it, so it must accelerate with the water procedure.
But, all this is a trifle compared to the fact that the sea, as it turned out, is always stormy by Easter, and the fact that the operators do not warn about this is a big disgusting thing. It’s not really possible for an adult to swim, and what can we say about children. We were lucky out of ten to grab only at the end of a couple of days to swim and dive normally next to the coral reef, it's just an incredible experience. The proposed yacht tours with visits to large turtles and sea cows turned out to be a banal tourist scam, and even got sick for the whole day from several roller coasters.
Wi-Fi only works at reception, but very weak, there is not a single Ukrainian channel on TV.
Thanks to the animator, almost every evening there were concert and competitive programs of a fairly high level.

The hotel had a small buffet and there were queues. There was not enough food for everyone, they had to wait until a new one was delivered. The beach is very small, umbrellas were not enough for everyone, although it was not the season. There was also a lack of sunbeds, which sometimes had to lie on towels and by the pool as well.

The beach is very small, umbrellas were not enough for everyone, although it was not the season. There was also a lack of sunbeds, which sometimes had to lie on towels and by the pool as well. Settlement did not wait long for me. And we chose this hotel because it suited us for the price, even on the 1st line. Although not 5 stars, but the price / quality ratio was expected to be normal, but did not match a bit. The room was normal, good new plumbing. As we understand, the hotel itself is quite new. But in the room we still had to clean with wet wipes, because there was dust. Maybe it's before the start of the season. They settled us without additional payments. I liked that there was a view of the pool and the sea from each room. Wi-Fi was on reception and very weak.
But on arrival we bought a Vodafone card for $ 10 and we had enough for the whole week and even gave it to our friends. The animation is great, although there were only 2 guys. But they did good shows and invited everyone to participate. We did discos at the hotel, it was quite fun. The hotel staff is quite intrusive. If people want a quiet holiday, then this hotel is not for them. But for this price, this hotel is quite normal.

Thank God he left, counting the days already. Of the benefits of the reef, cleaning and less attitude, sea views and EVERYTHING. Of the minuses, the road is 3 hours, the hotel is in the wild desert, the kitchen is monotonous 6 types to choose from and the meat is poured on a spoon in portions, one of the most meager things I have seen, entering the sea from the pier of another hotel, in order to enter, you need to take a card at the reception, without the guard will not let her in, in a week access to the vaunted reef, from which I rode was three days, the rest of the waves will not enter the water, everything is closed red flag.

There is nothing to do but wander along the wild deserted shore, the floor of the hotel is not residential, the rest of the floor is occupied by 15-20 percent. I do not advise, out of more than 10 hotels where I was one of the most unsuccessful. Look at the photo of Google from space, at the hotel, there is 2 stars after the name of the hotel, this is a REAL assessment of this sad and wild place.

We had a luxurious suite on the 4th floor, two-room, with two air conditioners, overlooking the sea, in the center of the hotel (above the restaurant) - by the way, it's all for 20 bucks at the reception. About the bad: the room is dirty, like after repair - a layer of dust, dirty windows. During the stay at the hotel (7 days) they cleaned the room only 1 time - and then they forced it.

About the bad: the room is dirty, like after repair - a layer of dust, dirty windows. During the stay at the hotel (7 days) they cleaned the room only 1 time - and then they forced it. There is a lot of spoiled food in the restaurant - we got poisoned, besides this, it was dirty on the distribution tables, there were flies, there were dirty chipped plates. Coffee in the restaurant - gray smelly haze. The food itself is not bad (except for breakfast), -everything is delicious, we were full. Drinks and alcohol in the bar are a separate conversation: beer is normal, there are no juices, there are only sweet sodas, local gin, rum - so-so, there are no cocktails in principle (they can pour rum into cola at your request).
On the good: The hotel is very beautiful; cheerful and attentive staff, wonderful animation, a beautiful coral reef, where you can safely walk on your feet, wildlife, a deserted endless beach, the sea is hot in August - everything was fine, and the hotel's shortcomings did not spoil our vacation.
