Listen up, friends!This place is awesome!There are a lot of greenery, a lot of birds and cats, which are also apparently resting there)))They are very kind and affectionate!There is always something to eat.Meat dishes are different (Beef, Chicken, Fish).and, by the way, there is also a grill, where meat, fish, and chicken are also fried.The beach is sandy, cool, there are enough umbrellas and sun beds for everyone, I don't know how in summer, but at the end of November it was exactly like that.The beach itself is dirty, cigarette butts are lying in the sand, although there are pots of sand for this dirty business.We lived in the most extreme room, overlooking the sea, 50 meters and hello sea, it was cool!there is also a bar by the sea, free of charge.and yet, there is a SPA salon, we went for a massage, a normal massage)not Thai, of course, but also good!If you are tired of the noise and din, if you need a pure rest, come to this hotel!You will have a lot of fun!The sea is cool , the water was 26 degrees in November!Smooth entrance to the sea, swim a little further, and then...corals, fish, beauty!The rooms are not the first freshness, so to speak.and it didn't spoil the rest.By the way, after arriving at the airport, buy SIM cards, they are right at the exit from the airport.We took yesesalat (operator), there was 4G everywhere, and there is an opportunity to distribute the Internet.oh, I forgot, there is also a playground on the territory, with different qualities, it is under a canopy, so your child will definitely not get sunstroke!If I'm going to Egypt again, I'll go to this hotel!Take a break from the hustle and have fun!
A fabulously beautiful green area, an emerald-turquoise gentle sea, a sandy entrance, there are carals, a huge turtle with turtles. The staff is friendly, responds to any request immediately and with a smile. Special thanks to the chefs and the restaurant administration. Beef, chicken, fish are always very tasty cooked in any variations.There are also seafood. Very tasty cakes, pastries, oriental sweets, cookies. Everything is great!
A good hotel, 40 minutes from Hurghada. Green and well-groomed territory, the food is not very diverse, but everything is delicious, especially pastries and desserts.There are few fruits.The beach is sandy.The rooms are clean,cleaning on demand,2 bottles of water per day per person,,WiFi in the room for 7 days $ 13.Opposite the hotel there is a pharmacy, a cafe, a small supermarket.It is focused more on Europeans, mainly Poles and Germans.There are few Russians.The staff is English-speaking.
A good economy class hotel. Great beach, delicious food. In general, everything is fine. Do not expect luxury from this hotel. But the beach is large, convenient access to the sea. There are always free sun beds on the beach and by the pool. The rooms are simple, tired, but cleaned every day. The staff is friendly.Buy a local SIM card at the airport so as not to pay for Wi-Fi at the hotel, it is much more profitable. Take a good mood with you and go ahead!
We arrived at the hotel at 2 a.m. We were fed a little. They moved into an old room. But they did not change it, everything was clean, the refrigerator and the refrigerator worked properly. And, most importantly, the second floor, a balcony. Immediately ask for the second floor, otherwise you risk being left without a balcony, but just with a platform in front of the room, where you will be in full view of passing tourists. During the 2 weeks of stay, there was always hot water. The pressure in the shower was normal. We asked to do the cleaning once every three days. They cleaned cleanly, changed linen and towels.
Wi-Fi cost $ 5 a day, so we bought a local SIM card from the guide for $ 7, which was enough for almost 2 weeks for correspondence in whatsapp.
The territory of the hotel is small, but quite green - large and small palm trees, bushes and flowers. The beach is about 200 meters, sandy. The entrance is gentle and comfortable. Special bathing shoes are not needed. There are corals not far from the shore, it is interesting to look at them and at the fish. There were always enough sun beds. There are abandoned cigarette butts and cups near the sun beds. The sunbeds are cleaned, but not very carefully. The beach itself is clean.
There are 4 bars on site. 2 of them are by the pools, one on the beach and another at the restaurant. The last two work until 23-00.
The restaurant is small, but the food is varied and delicious. There is always beef, fish, and chicken. Soup for lunch and dinner. And for dinner there are two soups to choose from. Salads and fresh vegetables. A variety of side dishes. Lots of sweets. The fruits are mainly melons, grapes and oranges.
Alcohol leaves much to be desired. Whiskey and rum are disgusting (although we have seen the Germans drinking them with might and main).wine is sour. More or less, you can drink ouzo (aniseed vodka), and gin, which does not taste like gin, but at least does not taste like acetone. The beer is ordinary.
Russians are not the majority in the hotel. There are many Germans and Poles. There are also Ukrainians.
In general, we were satisfied with the hotel and would return even more
A wonderful hotel with its own beach, courteous staff, delicious varied food. The rooms are cleaned every day, and towels are changed daily. Suitable for families with children. In the afternoon, classes in the pool with a coach. In the evenings, there is an entertainment program for children and adults. For this room rate, I put 10 out of 10
We have been staying at the hotel since the end of October, it is normal for 4 *, the room was given on the second floor, with a balcony, the view is gorgeous, the sea is beautiful, the territory is very well maintained, green, they cut and tidy it constantly,the restaurant is clean, there is enough food, it is very good that the chefs themselves serve it through glass,special priority for foreigners.Thank you very much to Boris, the souvenir seller, a very sincere person, and we bought souvenirs from him, and a SIM card, because the purchased one ran out at the airport on the fourth day, we bought it at the Orange salon.
The hotel is 10/10, I really liked it! A blooming territory, like gardens of paradise!!! 1 coastline, a beach with coral reefs, beauty!The food is very tasty, the rooms are clean! It is 70% preferred by Germans, there are few Russians. They gave me a great room without extra charges.
We will definitely return to it!!!
I had a vacation with 2 children in July 24. A large area.
I liked the hotel, the sea is 10 meters away! Fish and turtle at once. There is a children's pool
The rooms are already tired. You will not stay hungry, there is a barbecue evening.
A beach bar with kegs beer.
The animation is a bit weak. There would be slides or a water park.
There are no a la carte restaurants.
The price/quality is the perfect combination. For such a price, I would go again. 11 nights 152 tr.
I'll make a reservation right away that for me a vacation is not a luxury room and stuff like that, but a gorgeous sea and sun.
The room in the Lotus is tired, the furniture is chipped. But everything worked fine.
The food is pretty monotonous, but you can always find something that suits you specifically.
The hotel is not big, but for us, with a child of 4 years old, it was a plus. And I didn't have to go far in the heat!
The staff is helpful and friendly.
There is not enough entertainment - every day there is a children's disco (with the same songs) and an adult one. 2 times a week belly dancing and a boy twisting a huge "skirt", once there was a fire show.
But the main thing about the hotel is the sandy beach all along the entrance to the sea and the magnificent reef.
Overall, we liked everything. If the food situation could be improved, it would be a great hotel
Flight . The flight from Azur on 23.11 at 4 a.m. took off according to schedule (as well as back - on 3.12 at 22:50), there was a hot meal to choose from (one of the airlines with meals, for the rest it is not often). There were always carts with drinks, water juices, coffee and tea. Instant passage of the border in both directions, from the Russian Federation and to the Arab Republic. We were lucky, once again with the transfer, pazik went straight to Safaga , but he was upset by the arrival in Makadi, although only to one hotel. Reception (Mostafa's manager, solves the issues). They are accepted promptly, there is no direct influx of vacationers. You can solve the theme of a good number using standard methods. Knowledge of German or English is welcome. By the numbers-there are exceptions to the rules - if you have ever been to a hotel before - they greet you like an old acquaintance and give you a great room. The rooms are not bad , the furniture is made of wood, a little old, but good-quality. Underwear is tolerable. The number of towels in the room, soap, shampoos , water , without restrictions. A retreat, a room, who likes where, but if it is close to the kitchen (and there is a disco), smells will be carried depending on the wind. I would like to say separately about the beach . This is a standard beach (but with a lot of greenery), for Safaga hotels, the length is about eight hundred meters. The entrance to the sea is comfortable sand. Debris is present, but mostly pebbles, fragments of branches and small corals. From the edge, on the right, if you look at the sea, there is a relaxation area, as evidenced by a sign in three languages. However , at the level of the plate , everything ends . From time to time, all kinds of offers are roaming around it, in the bar on the right, music is dully mumbling on the sea itself. The sun beds are solid, wooden, of appropriate age. However, so are the mattresses. Towels are issued by cards, the condition is satisfactory. Nutrition and its organization . The main restaurant looks decent, clean. Food distributors , at the moment of peak , and this is an opening , do not always have time , and there are small queues of three or four people . I tried to come an hour before closing time and everything was already free. The waiters and staff are smiling, they will quickly bring you what you order from the drinks. If you wish to take something with you, it will be wrapped in foil and a backing. An assortment of good food. Yes, it repeats itself, but you can always choose what you want. There are standard vegetables, in sufficient quantities (both chopped and in the form of salads), from fruits only dates, oranges and rarely guava, unripe melon. Meat, Liver, fish, chicken. The Egyptians cook rice perfectly, and this can be noted. The restaurant is a specialist in spaghetti and horns, tries very hard, and the dish turns out to be delicious. Always soups. The bread and rolls are delicious , and always fresh . Coffee from Nescafe vending machines is of decent quality, albeit from powder. Espresso, lungo, dairy. Pizza is not hot, but it is edible. And drinks, except tea, it's in the kettle, it's already brewed hard, black, all from five-in-one vending machines and cola sprite, etc., and upi juices. The bars in the hotel are conveniently located, everything is close, but for many vacationers (and even more than once) I like the pool bar (the pool at the bar is cold - no one swims), the bartender Yasir works there, speaks Russian perfectly. In general, the hotel is comfortable for relaxation. PS there are no restrictions on food, drinks (in pm and alcohol). There is a bookstore at the reception, billiards, paid Internet access throughout the hotel (for an expensive price).
A good hotel, of an average price category. A large beach, a large well-groomed territory of the hotel. The room stock is old, but repairs are being done. Most of the vacationers in European countries. There is a water sports club. The driver club. I advise you to relax.
A very good hotel for all the money. I've never seen such a rarity, though, and I'd consider the hotel to be a very good three-star. It is quite comfortable for many people in terms of food and accommodation. There is absolutely nothing for children to do there. There is nothing there for children, just the specifics of the hotel, as well as the Safari resort for the elderly. The staff is friendly, relatively considerate and unobtrusive, which is very rare and valuable for Egypt. It's a pity that the sand on the beach is covered in cigarette butts. And so, of course, for the sake of the beach, I would even like to return. And the boats around the kerosene are still poisoning the air. They should be sent far away. And so to the hotel.Goodbye and thanks for the fish.
A nice quiet hotel. It is better to ask for Deluxe rooms right away, the surcharge is $ 10 per day. The food is not particularly varied, but it is delicious and there is always everything. The sea is beautiful, corals, fish. Russians swim in the sea, and European minorities swim in the pool.
I have been with my wife in Lotus since October 15 for 8 nights.Our age is 45+. The territory is excellent, the sea is wonderful, the food is normal, the staff is good, there are many shops and pharmacies nearby, everything costs a penny, who came why, Turkey began to relax,well done Egyptians.
I have been going to the sea for many years, I am not very whimsical. Lotus has a beautiful sea, a nice but dirty beach, and a disgusting hotel. This is not a foursome. I can survive almost anything except unsanitary conditions. When you take a chair by the handle in the dining room to move it away and then wash your hands, because they have become sticky and dirty, and your hands stick to the table, the waiters bring drinks in dirty, stained, unwashed glasses - this is too much. Moreover, the waiters manage to assign dates to vacationers. Dirty linen with stains can be laid on the beds, and this is considered the norm. I do not recommend the hotel.
Great hotel, we would love to come back here. We had a family vacation from 15 to 25.08.23. Very friendly staff. A beautiful beach and a gorgeous sea with its own reef. The hotel is not new, the room stock is different. It can be seen that the rooms are being renovated gradually. We got the old one when we checked in, but for $ 50 we were changed to a new one after repair. The food in the hotels is good, you will not stay hungry. There are 4 bars on site. 2 work until 17 o'clock, and 2 work until 23 o'clock. The bar has 2 types of light beer, of good quality. White and red wine. Strong local alcohol, whiskey, rum, gin and vodka. We took an excursion to Luxor from a local tour operator, I recommend it. The hotel guide Anextur offered prices of $ 80/45 per person, we went for $ 32/16. From 10 a.m. to evening, animators try to entertain vacationers. On the last day of our vacation, a large batch of new sunbeds was brought to the beach.
Excellent hotel: the food is good, the territory is large, beautiful, well maintained. It's very quiet and cozy. The beach is sandy and gently sloping. We had a rest in July 2024 and liked everything.
It's not a bad hotel. Quiet, perfect for families with young children, older people or people like us who don't like noisy places. We drove from Hurghada airport to the hotel for 40 minutes, for an additional fee we checked in ahead of time, by the way-to get paid Internet. We bought a SIM card from the guide for $ 15-30 GB. If you are going to take adapters and mosquito repellent plates with you, they are here both in winter and summer. In general, for 55 tons per person for 9 days, it's not even bad
There is NO attitude towards Russians! Despite the fact that we,
- non-drinkers, adequate, friendly! Even for money, they are unlikely to approach you. Egypt is not the same anymore.... I won't come back for any money.
The advantages are the territory, the sea.
Cons- maintenance, cleaning, (glasses are not washed! From the word "absolutely" to you, anyone could drink from it, they just pour it into a dirty one and give it away (the room was patched when they stopped by, they slept on dirty linen on which someone had already slept! Animation - it's not there!!!!
the ratio (just zero! It's indicative that they don't see you, you're just dirt, they don't even turn on Russian music, they serve everyone but not rush.
And it's so disgusting to look at the affected smiles of the staff when "THEIR" guests came in. In short! If you're Russian, you have nothing to do there! This was the most upsetting thing! But that's understandable. In general, the hotel is for pensioners from Nemecia, Poland, and so on.
Terrible hotel! Annoying staff ! I flew alone without my husband , they offered sex , the cleaner enters the room without knocking ( although a do not disturb sign was hung ) ! If you want to come to hell, then you need a lotus! The reception was bullied on the day of departure (they did not want to extend the room even for $ 200) thank you to the woman who flew a day earlier and gave me her paid room, but I still paid at the reception!
The hotel is just super. We went in August 2023. The sea and the beach are just incredible, the best of all the places where we were specifically in Egypt. The food is similar to homemade, you will definitely not stay hungry. Many people talked about the monotony of food, so yes, but everything is delicious and there is always something to choose. Drinks can be taken by yourself, this is a huge plus. After lunch, near the pool, you can take snacks in the form of buns (sweet and salty), cheese, sausage, tomatoes, etc.
To give you a good room, just give the guys at the reception 20 bucks;))
The beach is great, it covers all the disadvantages.Kondey is old, works like a tractor, not everyone will be able to sleep.I really liked the green area and the beach bar with sofas.I'll go again.
A wonderful hotel for a relaxing holiday.Beautiful territory, clean rooms, friendly staff, very tasty food and the main advantage is the beach with a sandy entrance to the sea and a reef with fish and turtles.I would love to come back again.
The hotel is excellent, well-maintained beautiful territory, the beach is super, there is a relax pool with a bar, except for the main pool.
About the food: mostly monotony!
Rice, baked potatoes, pasta (but the queue is big) meat, chicken, fish, vegetables!
Seasonal fruits are made from fruits.
For a sweet tooth there is a PARADISE))
Rooms: if you take them closer to the reception, you will be very lucky. Long-distance numbers 50/50 (can be changed without problems)
This is the first time I've written such a long review about a hotel and I don't even know where to start. We arrived at night, we were settled in a terrible room, the air conditioner "coffin" on the wall, a dirty curtain at the corner of the soul (to disgust), broken sockets, when the air conditioner was turned on, the light turned off, after a call to the reception an employee came who allegedly did not understand Russian and fortunately he taught us how to use the air conditioner. The night passed like hell (a noisy conder and thoughts of really having to live in a barn for all 10 days).By the way, all the photos of the terrible room from the reviews are real, unfortunately, I could not save them. In the morning, the issue was resolved naturally for a fee (a good room next to the sea and a good view from the window, although the view from the windows, as far as I understood, is mostly beautiful everywhere, except for a few rooms). If you check out at 12:00, if you need to extend the room, then there is also a fee for this (no one will just extend it). Then everything was more or less. Modest food: meat goulash, boiled beef or chicken (grilled a couple of times), since I didn't really like them, later I tried them turned out to be good), then I ate a lot of fish (she is also an average person). Side dishes: pasta, rice, vegetables and mashed potatoes (by the way, which was not always there). The breakfasts are standard: eggs, omelets, buns, pancakes, breakfast cereals, a couple of types of cheese and vegetables. From fruits: dates, melons and oranges, oh yes, watermelon was given 2 times. Sweets, but I've tried them a couple of times. There are no snacks by the pool. Drinks: At the restaurant for lunch and dinner, white and red wine from packages + beer (but it will be difficult for you to wait for them if you do not tip! Since alcoholic drinks are located on the territory of the kitchen (that's how I understood it. By the arrival of some guests, the table was even already set with drinks in glass glasses.). Gin, vodka, rum of local production in bars and only in the oriental bar will make you beautiful and delicious cocktails. Soft drinks in plastic cups (but after coronavirus, we thought they were better than glass)
The main contingent of the hotel is Germans, so the staff speaks German and English or Arabic, very few words are spoken in Russian, if it comes to something that needs to be corrected, they immediately ask to speak English (this was the case at the reception). Surprisingly, I liked talking with representatives of Anex tour, this is Abdul (he was at the hotel, he was in touch with us all the time, always answered our questions) and Muhammad (accompanied us on a water trip and did everything possible to make the trip comfortable, there were some points that he solved and it was pleasant)
The sea, entering it, the beach, the sun - it's all wonderful and even here there were their own, but: there was always wind, but now I don't even consider it a minus. Because on the only day of calm, there was a smell of diesel fuel from the boats that stand and float out to sea next to the bathing places. And many guests of this hotel write about this, unfortunately, no one has solved this issue. There are 3 reefs with fish + a huge and beautiful turtle swims to eat grass. The hotel grounds are beautiful.
If you do not pay attention to all these troubles (which we eventually did after changing the room), then the rest was a success. I am writing this so that you understand where you are going and be ready if you decide to come here.
You can go 1 time.
A quiet hotel, a green hotel for a relaxing holiday , with a good shore and a small coral reef, most Germans have a rest and the attitude towards them is better, especially in bars.The food is delicious, but at lunch, it was that you come at 14, and there is almost no food
The hotel itself is not bad. The rating is low solely because of the representative of AnexTour, his name is Musad, who tries to impose excursions in every possible way and hurries with payment. I deceived my friends with food, they did not eat for 6 hours while they were on the road. The price tag is more painful than on the same territory of the hotel. The same tour is much more expensive for him. I recommend contacting the window near the bar on the beach there is much cheaper and the occupancy is higher.
Very nice hotel, nice, polite staff, great food, animation, not really, but it didn't bother us))))the beach is good, you could always find a free sunbed.we had a rest in July 2023, the hotel territory is beautiful and green. There are questions about the furniture in the rooms, but it is always clean and tidy. If we go to Egypt again, we will definitely come back!
Very cool hotel, the food is delicious. The staff is polite. The animators are great, the kids had fun. Everything is clean and tidy. Alla Birsa is on the trail.We will arrive in a year.
Everything is fine if you didn't ask for an additional fee for a nice room. If you pay an additional $ 50 per room, you get a completely different price for the hotel.
I had a rest in early July 2023. A large and well-maintained territory. The sea is super, the approach is sand. All inclusive is normal, but don't expect a huge selection of food. Beer in 200 gr. plastic cups on the beach in the heat was very annoying. Despite the above, the hotel is quite normal for its money.
I had a rest in Lotus Bay from 27.09.23 to 10.10.23. Before my vacation, I read reviews about this hotel and decided to go here, I was very disappointed. I'll start with the pros: the territory is beautiful, the staff is friendly, but not all. Very good bartender on the beach by the pool
Ayman. They settled us at 12.00, which is good, they gave us a bottle of water before settling in. I got a good room after the renovation, my friends were unlucky they had a bad room. Now the cons, I was able to beg for a hairdryer on the sixth day, on the beach from the Menavil hotel all the sunbeds are broken, the beach is not removed from the word at all, mattresses from the sunbeds are lying around and there is no business to them, you don't put food in the restaurant yourself, a plate is served through the window and you show what to put, I don't eat a lot, but when you tell them one sausage or a piece of meat, they impose more and as a result the food is thrown away, because it is not eaten, in the morning which pancakes are left they are allowed on some kind of salad is not clear. In general, this is called waste-free production. There are shows in the shisha bar and at the same time all sorts of packages can fly, which also don't matter. You're sitting and garbage is flying at you. In general, I will not go to this hotel, I have been to Shams Safaga hotels 3 times and Menavil Hotel 2 times before and I have something to compare with. And even more than that, it's not pleasant to openly ignore the Russians. Friends had a birthday, they were not even congratulated, although the reception said that your guest had a birthday, and the Germans were congratulated. Rating 2 * does not pull for more. I forgot to add, the animation of Simba, Manu and the girls are good. At the departure, they were given dry rations, which consisted of rotten bananas from which the slurry flowed out onto buns, cheese and jam plus a juice box. At the airport, they saw it all and threw it away. Dogs are better fed than they are people. As a result, I drank juice and that was the end of my breakfast. It's a shame that such an attitude towards tourists.I would also like to add that there is a bartender named Talal, also a very nice and sympathetic young man. Always smiling and very kind. I added his photo.
In Egypt 1 time . Before that, I was in Turkey, Tunisia, China, Zanzibar, Thailand, etc. The sea is great. The entrance is convenient. There are small reefs. The turtle comes often! The rooms have been renovated. If you get a sea view, then top!!! The pool is nice. Animation 3+. You can chill !!! Food 4 . Alcohol 4 . I advise you if you are at sea and on vacation
I liked the hotel. I will immediately write a huge minus to the hotel management. On the day of departure, they are fed only until 12:00 according to the all-inclusive system. Lunch is given in case of late arrival at the hotel and then if you tell the reception (this is the first time we have encountered this).
Pros: the room was given a large one, without extra charges for 4 people there were two 1.5 double beds (for children) and one huge double. Shampoo, soap, and toilet paper are replenished as they are used. The food suited us, we are not picky. The breakfasts are the same - omelette, pancakes, vegetable salads, cheeses, sausage, pastries from the main, delicious coffee from the coffee machine. Lunch and dinner are varied - there is always chicken, beef, fish. The territory of the hotel is large and beautiful, the coastline is long, there are not many people in the sea. The staff is not intrusive. Boilers, as in many hotels of this level, are local strong alcohol, juices, soda, bottled beer. There are several shops across the street in front of the hotel, there are also shops on site, a paid bar with ice cream and cocktails. They don't give you ice cream for free. Swimming pool - there are 3 pools on the territory, one for children, one large main and one near the beach with a bar, but the bar was not working in June 2023. The beach bar is large and located next to the sea. There is a playground with a slide and different swings. There is animation - they do exercises, Aqua aerobics, volleyball games, children's discos and performances.
4⭐️??? At best, 2. Standard rooms are dead: dark furniture has long been tired of tourists, the veil is all in dust on the windows, the curtains are torn, there is no hairdryer and safe. The suite room already corresponds to the 4 ⭐️ hotel, of course you need to pay extra for relocation to good conditions)
Nutrition.... we didn't like it, although we are not spoiled.
The advantages include the large green area of the hotel.
We had a rest from 03/28.24 to 04.04.24. They specially check into a bad room.
There was no duvet cover in the room. They asked for a duvet cover, the staff pretends that they do not understand us. The rooms are in poor condition. Moving from room to room is $30. They don't like Russian tourists.
Once, in 2006, it was not bad here. Delicious food and beautiful sea. Now the food is worse than our school canteens and already dead coral, without moray eels and hedgehogs. The staff is polite. But this is not enough for a good rest. Going hungry for a week of vacation is too much. And to live in rooms of the "motel" level, well, so-so
They cook well, they feed well, the rooms are clean for a fee
Only foreign citizens (Germans, French) have priority, there is absolutely no service for Russians and Ukrainians, even alcohol is not poured
The check-in was quick, thanks helped and we got the room after the renovation, clean, cozy, everything worked fine, the plumbing was generally new, the air conditioner cooled well.The territory is probably medium-sized , as for me , there is not enough greenery, there are several swimming pools, the main one is always packed to the brim with people . The beach is a few minutes away, it is large, sandy, with good access to the water , the sea in August surprised me that it was not like fresh milk , but really refreshing, especially in the morning , which is of course pleasant in such heat.There is no super reef here, there are only a few coral bumps, but there are a lot of fish and turtles can often be seen, and of course I have never seen such a gorgeous color of the sea.I will not write much about food , personally we were satisfied that it is there at all, we did not see anything super special , a typical set of dishes on the Egyptian buffet , rice is delicious here, a lot of vegetables , meat chicken mainly , beef stewed with vegetables , very little fruit . Alcohol is clearly local, strong if mixed with cola, then you can drink , the fact that strong drinks at 20 degrees personally suited me quite well. There is animation in the hotel, there is all the entertainment both in the afternoon and in the evening, we only played volleyball, this is quite enough for us. We first chose Paradise Island from the trips, but there are a lot of people there, we didn't like it, then we went to Utopia Island, that one is super there, we also took a bathyscaphe via Facebook from Mido Bikham, everything is very expensive from the hotel guide. Mido also has its own page on the eliteargan Instagram, where you can choose and buy original Egyptian oils. There is nothing interesting near the hotel, there are a couple of overpriced shops and that's it, there is nowhere to walk, it's far from the city. In general, we were quite satisfied with our vacation, the hotel is not expensive, the service is so-so , but the sea here is excellent, and we went first of all for it.
The hotel does not match the stated 4* from the word "absolutely". He does not pull more than 2*. The advantages are the beautiful territory and the sea. The rooms want repairs, especially plumbing. Swedish food is the same every day, the choice is minimal. Tea and coffee are only for breakfast, then the devices are turned off. In bars, on the beach and by the pool, food is only for money. Free of charge is only a wino and from 16 to 17 a spicy paper sausage with a bun. There is no animation. The contingent is mainly elderly Germans. The Internet is paid and there is practically no Internet. I do not recommend it.

August 30, 2023
We had a family vacation at the end of August 2023. We took 2 rooms. There is no smell of the declared 4 stars.
Wi-Fi is paid. 10 bucks for a week.
They say there are normal rooms after renovation. We got 2 rooms, to put it mildly, bad ones. There is a smell from the air conditioner when it is turned on, so the filter is not changed. There are streaks, blisters, cracks on the plaster on the ceiling and on the walls. The curtains are all dusty. The shower stall was leaking. The bed linen has holes in places. The towels are clean but stained.
Room cleaning deserves a special moment. Yes. It is daily and includes only changing towels, making the bed, taking out the trash from the baskets and adding a roll of paper. That's it! The linen has not been changed once in a week. The floor has never been washed. The toilet too.
Now about the food. It is very monotonous and not tasty. They put very little. You're always asking me to plant it.
The animation for children is the same every day. Absolutely. Boring.
Now about the advantages. Nice territory of the hotel, the sea is right 10 steps away. Basically, that's it.
We talked with the hotel guests, they say that for such a price, other Safaga hotels have much better conditions.
This is 4 stars in Egypt and there are no illusions here. Monotonous food. The rooms are not bad, we were given an upgrade to the suite for free. The staff is very helpful. Very! They knew by name, they met all requests, and for this, a special thank you
The hotel was vacationed from 09.01.2022 to 18.01. This hotel can hardly pull 2 stars. Of the advantages, this is a green area and a good beach, the rest are disadvantages. The biggest disadvantage is the rooms: the audibility is like living in a cardboard box with wooden slamming doors in the neighboring rooms. In almost all rooms, the air conditioners do not work, and if they work, it is very loud that it is not possible to sleep. The furniture is very old. In the dining room, every piece of meat is given as a favor (it feels like you're walking with a plate to ask for food) . For 10 days, the menu has not changed except for empty soups. And in conclusion. I have vacationed in Egypt many times and am not very pretentious and capricious, and I wholeheartedly recommend that you do not visit this hotel!!!!
We rested for two weeks from the end of August 2021
The sea is a thrill. Warm, transparent, with a bunch of marine life (a variety of fish, squid, octopus, sea turtles, and hedgehogs, where without them).
We got a tired room, but we came to rest, not to sit in it, so on the whole it was passable. The air conditioner is super-old and noisy, but it cools well. And be prepared for a weak pressure of water from the shower (especially water supply in Egypt).
The food seems to be varied, but it was difficult to choose, because the cuisine of Egypt is not mine. Lots of vegetables, salads, chicken, beef and fish every day, periodically grilled dishes. Fruits are negligible. The desserts are beautiful and not bad, but monotonous. Alcoholic cocktails can be drunk, but without much pleasure.
The animators did well, they tried their best. Simba, Chocolate, warm greetings to you ✌🏻 at noon aquaerobics, show in the evening.
The rooms are cleaned every day, with the replacement of toiletries and boats made of towels.
A separate plus for the well-groomed territory - everything is in greenery and flowers. Gardeners work day and night.
The rest is calm, quiet and measured, for fans of hanging out and moving is not suitable.

Two stars only for the beach, it is sandy, and for the territory, it is very green.
The rest is a complete disappointment, the food is monotonous, nothing has changed in a week, even the greens were gone, Friday evening was a holiday - there were lula, the rest of the days rice, fish and chicken in batter, potatoes, in the canteen neither in Russian nor in English, some speak German, so either in Arabic or on their fingers.
They are settled by default in a shed like a viper house, for 30-40 bucks you can move into something similar to a normal room.
Anex, as always, is at a "height", promised a kettle and a hair dryer in the room, called the hotel for the entire period of our stay, but before the eviction, neither the first nor the second was found for us.
In a bar by the sea, sour beer in 0.2 cups, in bottles for money, vodka-whiskey-rum in plastic is local, it does not differ much in taste. Food for money.
During the day there is one Russian-speaking bartender, in English you can order something slowly.
In the evening, a nasty mustachioed bartender, spits only in German or pretends that he does not understand English, but he is like the best bartender of the hotel, so the goose. The Germans, the main contingent, drink a glass of wine an hour and sniff a hookah, so the desire to drink beer in a normal evening will not work.
Conclusions: duty free on arrival is mandatory according to the full program, animation can be said no, fun only in the evening at the disco for two hours, then the most "funny" Germans flow into the hookah bar, if the sea and excursions are enough for a week, everything starts to bother you more in time: food, communication, alcohol, entertainment. Well, if you know German perfectly, then you can last another half a week.
