We had a family vacation in November 2024, and everyone was satisfied. The food is delicious, there are meat dishes, side dishes, vegetables, salads, cakes to choose from every day, fish was served on some days, shrimp once (lots of shrimp). My husband was pleased with the variety of meat dishes. I was pleased with the oriental sweets. The child appreciated the food at the beach bar: spaghetti/pasta, burgers, snacks, potatoes. The local alcohol is not bad, we tried wine, beer, whiskey. The staff is very friendly, few people understand Russian, but there were no problems. The rooms are clean, the beds are comfortable, and they brought a separate full-size bed for the child. Plumbing, water, air conditioners, and TV all worked smoothly. The room has a safe and a hairdryer. Bottled water 0.5 per person per day. Lots of pools, one heated, all with bars. The animators conducted entertainment programs in the heated pool. The evening animation was not very funny, the cartoons were played in Arabic. 10-15 minutes walk to the sea. It was a pleasure to walk, we walked, and sometimes we took a shuttle. The beach is equipped with sun beds and umbrellas, towels are provided. The sea is wonderful: there is a live pier with fish. We saw a stingray, an octopus and a bunch of all kinds of beautiful fish. The ebb and flow of the tide had no effect on swimming in the sea. Be sure to take a swimming mask. I recommend the hotel!
The hotel is really wonderful! It is spacious and beautifully decorated, and the rooms are very cozy and clean. However, unfortunately, there were some nuances with the staff. We were checked in later, had to wait 3 hours with the children, and also couldn't find a room for a long time. First, we were sent to a room where other guests already lived, and then the key just didn't work.…
The food, it seems to me, was worse this year than last year. Despite the wide variety of dishes, there weren't many that were delicious, and some of them even seemed stale. On the positive side, it is worth noting the warm pool and the opportunity to use the infrastructure of the neighboring Stella Makadi Beach hotel.
But the real highlight of our vacation was our guide Mido! We met him here: 1oneguide.com He was always positive, with a great sense of humor and in-depth knowledge of local attractions. His fascinating stories about the culture and history of Egypt have added a special atmosphere to our trips. He was ready to answer all our questions and did everything possible to make each of us feel comfortable and interesting.
Overall, the stay was memorable, and I would recommend this hotel with some reservations!
The hotel corresponds to its price category.
The food is decent, there was even our borscht. You will definitely not stay hungry. The first dishes and the second have excellent taste qualities.
I would like to expand the assortment of fruits. But it may be related to the season. Local alcoholic beverages are included in the price of the tour. Imported drinks for a fee. The ice cream is not delicious. That's it with the food.
There is a Russian-speaking staff on site. Therefore, they did not experience much discomfort in communicating with employees. When requesting to replace the number (I have sore legs), it was replaced immediately. Respect.
Rest. There are swimming pools, there is enough space for almost everyone. There is a beach and a pier. It is convenient to swim from the latter, although it is 300 meters to walk along it. But if you reach the end, you dive and in front of you are corals, fish - beauty! But the boats that dock at the pier spoil everything. As soon as they leave, they throw out all the garbage, all sorts of rubbish floats. It clears after half an hour, but if it dived at the same time, then phew!....
The evening entertainment program is boring in my opinion, it was better in Turkey. The daytime program is quite satisfactory.
Overall, the rest turned out to be good. You can advise.
