I recommend the hotel!
Excellent reef, very wide variety of fish. We saw both moray eels and huge stingrays, not to mention a huge number of different small fish.
There are several areas for adult relaxation, where children under 16 are not allowed.
The food is standard, seafood and fish are always available, a large selection of desserts
We stayed at the hotel in room 5117. Our room was cleaned every day. Special thanks for the help with any requests to Mohammed Shaban and Hassan. They always changed the toiletries, cleaned the room, and always wondered if there was anything they needed to help with. We are very surprised that the staff already starts working from 6 a.m. until late at night. You can always find them in our building and ask for help. You guys are doing great. The hotel is very nice. Animation for children is generally a fire, thanks to Varya, Aya and Valeria. The girls are great fellows, the child had no time to be bored with them. The hotel grounds are very green and clean. The staff is very polite and friendly. We are very pleased that we spent these 7 days in this wonderful hotel
We are very pleased that we chose this particular hotel! It is very beautiful, comfortable, delicious! If in Charm, then only here! The sea is just beautiful, the fish are wonderful☺️
The hotel grounds are very green and beautiful. The numbers froze decades ago. The food is good, without frills. The service in the main restaurant is not very good. There is only 1 children's pool, all the others are not heated at all, respectively, no one swims there. The beach is cool, the sea is beautiful too. The beach bar sucks (only beer is available) And in general it's fine, not chic, but you can live
I liked everything very much and the hotel, the sea, the food, except for the bartenders, are very unpleasant, as if they pour or make a drink at their own expense. And I recommend it, it's a good place to relax.
We rested at the hotel in November 2023.a large well-groomed territory,polite staff always helped us if necessary,the rooms were tired, the room was changed 2 times we had a view of the garden, they gave us a flowerbed with acorns replaced with another one so the air conditioner flowed and the light in the corridor went out and the kettle did not work,the food was good, everything was delicious alcohol no diluted cocktails, only ice, they drank heartburn pills, the location of the hotel did not like it outside the desert if you go to the old town or somewhere else, only a taxi a hotel taxi is 2 times more expensive than a street taxi.you can't change the money from the guide, he immediately warmed us up on the course .the hotel is for those who just want to lie by the sea or pool, but it is expensive and not very 5 *.there is only one bar on the beach and there is only beer and juices packaged in disposable glasses and that ended at 14.00 in the afternoon.(not 5* in any way)
The hotel was chosen because of the reef. The reef is gorgeous, the food is varied and very tasty, the staff is attentive and friendly. We liked it. We'll come back later.
A very decent hotel. Advantages: territory, reef, food, animation.
Of the cons: there is nothing outside the territory, you have to go to Charm. A taxi is always at the exit of the hotel))
Great hotel, everything is clean and tidy. The staff is almost fluent in Russian. There are 2 main restaurants with service, they bring you drinks, juices, wine, etc. on request. You can stay in additional restaurants for 1 time for free. I recommend. The beach is clean, the entrance from the boarding house, a good reef, there were enough sun beds. Towels are also provided on the beach. There is a swimming pool, towels are provided near it. There is a water park with 2 slides. We were settled earlier with a small surcharge and room upgrade. Not far from the reception building 21, if you are settled further, then you can walk or take a bus through the territory, it takes 5 minutes. Any drinks: wine, cocktails and beer.
The reef is very steep, there is a diving center, lifeguards are always on duty.
The kitchen is sharpened for Italians, a lot of pasta, pizza ... between breakfast and dinner, only pizza, burgers and sweet water for a snack. Ice cream is like ground ice with the smell of vanilla.
Animation every evening.
There is a children's room.
They clean up for three, but the dollar works wonders.
It is worth going for the sake of the sea 😍
We stayed at this hotel in early July 2024. If you are thinking of coming here or not, then it is definitely worth going! The only negative is tired rooms. But! They are spacious and clean. All rooms are located in two-storey villas. If something doesn't work, then everything is repaired immediately. A hotel with a large and, most importantly, green area. There is a lot of green lawn, palm trees, different colors. There is a large cactus garden. The hotel is very beautiful! There is an elevator to the beach from the pool, no steps, as in other hotels. The beach is well maintained with fine sand, there is a small entrance to the water for children. For snorkeling and diving, there is a wooden pier (not long, you do not need to walk 10 minutes to swim with the fish). The food is varied and very tasty, a large selection of everything. Drinks are made from local alcohol, good coffee, natural juices. The territory of the hotel is very well zoned - there is a swimming pool for adults only, a separate pool with slides, etc. The staff is friendly, they do not bother with excursions, spa and photos, it's enough to say once that you are not interested. And of course the reef!! He's the best! We went to the reserve, but the reef turned out to be much more colorful at the hotel!
I liked the hotel very much, the territory is well maintained, large, beautiful, there is a cactus area. The beach is clean, there is an entrance to the water for children. The pontoon is narrow, which is very convenient. The reef is beautiful.

Territory
Green, beautiful. There are even cacti for those who like to eat them, but it's better not to.
Very good evening lighting, nice to walk in the evening. Each line of rooms has its own theme, it makes sense to walk around the entire territory and find something cool for yourself. There are many shops, but all under the scorching sun, there are much fewer gazebos, and one is huge and beautiful, covered with a thick layer of dust, the other is purely decorative.
And stairs. By the 5th day, I hated stairs, even though I live in a house without an elevator.
Cool sound insulation, if there is a rehearsal in one place, it is not heard in the rest of the hotel
The airport is close, it throws up noise, especially in the evening, it did not bother us, because flights are not very frequent
Sea:
Cold, very transparent. There are many shallow areas where you can swim and watch the fish.
The exit from the ramp is a staircase, it is more convenient than jumping from a pantone, for alarmists (me), to stand in water. The lifeguard gives a circle, for those who are afraid (I was so afraid that I didn't even go deep with a circle)
The reef is beautiful, experienced reef lovers have learned that in their opinion, the living creatures are average. If you dive, visibility is good deep down, you can even see divers (alive).
The sea is either cold or warm depending on the currents. You can swim well along the shore of the reefs.
They ride on a banana
They asked about sharks, they said that they do not like reefs, the current is also unpleasant for them here and they spend a lot of dives every day, there were no sharks.
A beach with pebbles and sand.
On the territory to the right there is a Jacuzzi with a beautiful view (they turn on with buttons, work for 10 minutes and turn on again). The water in them was the warmest on the territory
The rescuers are friendly, quick-reacting men. When something happened on the water, they jumped from two points and swam to help.
Staff
Lobby: communicate from part in Russian, part in English
English is preferable in the restaurant, but Russian + on the fingers is also suitable.
Overall, the staff are amazing people, it's amazing that there are so many of them in one place.
Russian is spoken well at the local bazaar. Of course, they will try to sell their entire tent.
The 925 Silver tent, by the look of some goods, sells like jewelry, if you try on something and do not buy, then the seller begins to resent that Russians are bad and do not know what they want and sends them to the tent.
The pharmacist at this bazaar is the best man, he helped us a lot.
Preferred garden view room
It is very dark, it lacks light terribly in the evening. If you want to apply makeup, this is a whole test, because there is a light from top to bottom in the mirror in the hallway, there is simply no light in the room, there is a huge sink in the bathroom between you and the mirror. For people with poor eyesight (mine is 4.5), this is a special torture, even in lenses.
In the daytime, with the curtain open, everything is perfectly visible. The rest of the time, muted warm tones.
The water is strange, it can't completely wash off the soap. And my hair was coming out endlessly.
Room cleaning
Everything is fine, wonderful guys, swans and elephants were spinning out of towels, which it was a pity to disassemble. But when changing the bed linen, they accidentally stuck my T-shirt, in which I slept and naturally threw it in bed. It's a pity, but okay.
WiFi
Tolerable
It was rarely buggy, but Google services work only through additional applications
Messengers are working fine
It fell off a couple of times, I had to log in again.
ATM machine
Don't put a card in it.
He knocked down our card code when they tried to withdraw cash and after that it was impossible to pay anywhere and nothing, just the payment did not take place. Only after they wrote to the bank, they dropped something there, and the card started working. But we grabbed a lot of stress against the background of the inability to buy medicines / pay for a doctor (we didn't even remember about insurance, because this is our second vacation in 38 years, the first was 9 years ago)
Food
We asked other vacationers, there were no cases of poisoning among the respondents.
A buffet on behalf of a person without a gallbladder: I ate leafy salads, cucumbers, cabbage and came to the conclusion that the vegetables here are either clean or they are well washed (usually poorly washed vegetables give me bloating for 20 minutes).
There is a table for the injured / low-calorie - boiled rice on water and meat is the same, sometimes fish, but it looks so creepy that I have never seen anyone take it.
But just in case, take with you polysorbs, smects (two packs each), espumizan, rehydrones, enterofurils, you never know.
On behalf of a person in full configuration: there was constant flatulence (I mixed fish with meat and then threw desserts on top).
What I didn't like about the buffet: The squid seemed to be undercooked, the crab was terrible (In our rating of disgust, this crab won the Al Dente restaurant, about it below), beef sometimes like a sole. The rest of what was on the buffet was without complaints.
There is almost no difference between the Seabreeze and Bayview diet, only one restaurant has air conditioning, and the other has stuffiness and fans
Also, on nutrition:
They give two coupons for a free dinner in an Italian restaurant and East Asian cuisine (at least they gave us), there are 4 restaurants in total, also French and fish.
The restaurants are very beautiful in the evening (and open in the evening)
We were at Al Dente
with a choice of 4 free meals for each guest
The wine is either sour from the dining room (they took it for the atmosphere and it was tin by the smell, even to assess the taste - it's a pity to dip your tongue), or additionally buy a whole bottle.
First, someone else's shrimp soup was brought to us, in the semi-darkness of the restaurant to fish a shrimp with eyes from a plate of soup similar to a swamp - omagad.
Then our vegetable soup was brought, also similar to a swamp, but at least vegetable. The soup was terrible for me, my man was trying to find something good in this soup.
And fried breast with potatoes. You could get the breast out of the crust like from a pencil case - you couldn't chew the crust. The potatoes were undercooked and could be browned with raw potatoes. We didn't wait for dessert - we went to the buffet, drink tea with cakes (they are great)
From what they overheard around them, they realized that someone asked for the 4th time for rose wine, which they could not bring (a bottle) in any way. Someone was served soup for more than half an hour. We were lucky - within 10 minutes, both someone else's and our soup were brought.
It was very unexpected with the mass of bars with free cocktails - there were only a couple of people who had a little too much.
We could not assess the quality of alcohol, because we do not drink.
Weather:
We were in the middle of May.
It's very windy, but the wind is warm. The pools are icy, the sea is cold, it was at t° 28-39.
On the seashore there are places for children to wet their feet and gurgle deeper. Be sure to take coral slippers, it's very easy to cut the foot. I didn't go far, the man cut his foot in 2 places and stepped on a hedgehog, I had to pull out a needle.
Spa:
You sign a disclaimer that if something goes wrong, you will feel bad, then you give up insurance and seal yourself. In general, I didn't like it very much.
According to the service: It's great that they give out everything - a bathrobe, slippers (they forgot to give us slippers xD), but they did not instruct us to what extent to undress and what to wear. I go to massages at home and generally guessed it, but there were also those who came for the first time in a one-piece swimsuit. this is not a problem, but it causes discomfort during the procedure.
Plus, the spa gives you a questionnaire in which you write where not to touch and which places to massage more carefully (spoiler: the latter was ignored)
It is very inconvenient to choose a massage according to the description. It seems to be written one thing, but in fact the shock is in shock.
The man took a sports massage to tone his muscles, and there was a meat grinder (which I love in massage), he was not ready for this.
I took antistress and as a result, the whole massage was stressful, that I took the wrong thing, my muscles turned to stone from constant stress and these pebbles were gently stroked to me (I chose a strong effect). I can't say for sure until the pile, because I was lying on my stomach, then on my back with a towel over my eyes, but I didn't notice any signs of hygiene, because first they massaged my heels, then my face, without intermediate asepsis (and it will be amazing if I'm wrong, but it's better to clarify this point in advance, because I ask Russian Russian masseuses might not understand, because they only know the phrases on duty in Russian). As a result, the Antistress massage added +100 stress points.
But the oils smelled nice, a fact.
The effect of the massage is zero for me
The man was all screwed up, as if he was pulling iron, but he coped with it.
The hotel also heard about those who took a course for the whole vacation from the local goddess of massage.
Entertainments
Everything is sad and tasteless with them.
A small water park with 3 slides (no donuts)
Activity with loud music until 22:30, it was wonderful, there was a room right in front of the stage), on Sat-Sun until 23
The tennis court is isolated, it looks like ruins, the coating is of the lowest quality, you need to sign up in advance to break your leg.
There is a football field in the playing area instead of the declared volleyball. The lawn was good, but we didn't find anyone to play with, the area is isolated, it's a very long way to go there.
The gym is small, but with an awesome balcony, it's also so hidden that it was hard to find
Billiards - you need to sign up (but we caught an employee at 18 and played, because during the day he is elusive) and pay extra, an hour 5 bucks. Out of 10 Kiev, more or less 2 are alive, and it is doubtful. The Kamui come off on 4x, the rest just don't have them.
Beach volleyball after 15, sand with small and prickly stones, cut the foot on them and knees. The sand was watered in the afternoon and it was tolerable to play there.
We did not reach the declared aqua aerobics and yoga, but we saw it from afar.
As a result, it's fine. A normal hotel, with its minuses and pluses. I would not recommend this hotel to friends, but not to my well-loved colleagues. My impression was spoiled by ice pools, cold sea and broken-down sports grounds.
We really liked this hotel. Excellent buffet, every day there was meat, chicken, beef. Additionally, there were restaurants near the bar (pizza and burgers). There is a mini water park, three slides and a large pool for children + 3 more pools for adults. There is a gorgeous reef along the entire coast, there is a dive center on the territory
A chic hotel for a family holiday, we had a rest in April 2024,the weather was very lucky, the heat was +35, the hotel territory is beautiful, there is a lot of location for photos.The reef is simply unreal, rich, insanely beautiful!
Excellent hotel, we rest only at 5 , corresponds to 5 stars. My daughter and I had a pleasant experience. Reef for 5, food for 5, animation for 4. Room service for 4. Guide Ahmed Ibrahim is a great guy who knows the whims of tourists. I recommend choosing this hotel and holidays with children.
We were in January 2024! Great hotel! With a steep reef, diving and snorkeling - look at the local fauna (very cool and beautiful)! There is a place on the beach in the sea for children, where it is convenient for children to swim in the sea (safely)! The food is great! Alcohol is standard (Egyptian)! The staff is friendly!
Great place!
I liked the service, the amazing reef,
Clean, beautiful, very rich table for a variety of dishes / desserts / drinks.
I will definitely come again!
We had a rest from May 3-10, we really liked the hotel, attentive staff, top-level food, comfortable rooms, clean everywhere. On the day of departure, I forgot my wallet in the room, they returned it to the reception. This time I forgot a bag of shoes and a collar on the bus, so we'll come back, this is a sign 😀😀😀
A great place to relax with children, delicious food, the animators are just super, in general, I would like to separately mention the hotel staff, responsive and comfortable. A large area , even a park with cacti , it is interesting to walk with a stroller .
We rested from the beginning of March to 03/20/2024.
Everything will be described in more detail below)
I liked the rest and we will definitely return to Egypt, because their cuisine and service are growing, and the climate is more pleasant than in Turkey.
About the service at the hotel: it is there, but it is focused primarily on Valtur bracelets, if you have it on your hand, then the service will be excellent)
For the rest of the vacationers, I recommend finding your waiter and sitting down only to him leaving a tip, then you will also get it and you will not need to queue at the bar: for breakfast, lunch and dinner, you will know what to bring, and there will always be a kettle for tea)
In general, the guys are all friendly and try to help. Managers monitor the work of waiters, offer child seats, if available, indicate which tables need to be blocked so that there is a place to sit. I recommend visiting the Al dente restaurant, even if you are not approached for a long time (we have seen such a case)-call someone, but do not leave (as people do), this place is worth waiting a little and eating good delicious fish, excellent lobster and chic tiramisu (I had to remind you about desserts)
Cleaning is a horror: the dust lived with us and no tips helped to solve it. The cleaner decided that the corpse of a mosquito should live with us from the first day of settlement (highlighted on the tile in the photo). The seams between the tiles have mold in places, it can be washed, but everything is OK. The paper napkins ran out on day 3 and the cleaner decided that we did not need them until the end of the rest, as well as inserting toilet paper, wiping the mirror and dust, apparently this is too hard work, thanks for vacuuming the floor and making the bed)) It's amazing, in terms of how everything is swept and washed all day in restaurants, on the beach ((
Pros:
A quiet hotel
Beautiful view
Good food
Nice well-maintained area
A beautiful cactus garden
The Reef
Your own diving center
Lawn tennis
Minuses :
- The rooms are old
- Terrible cleaning
-Service at night at the main bar which is 24 hours
-Audibility of conversations in the rooms (poor noise insulation, you can hear them walking and talking through the door)
-The screams of employees in the morning (clinkers) on the phone and shouting something to each other forever in building 5)
-Lack of tables, chairs at the evening show at the Arena Bar
I would like to express my gratitude to the waiter Muhammad, who worked at the bakery at the entrance on the right. And the top bartender Arafe at the Arena bar, one for such a large company, serves very quickly and efficiently , and most importantly is kind to everyone equally, regardless of the color of the bracelet )
And I also want to draw the attention of the management that during the entire vacation, only two waiters from the staff spoiled the attitude about the hotel, who work exclusively at the bar working 24 hours is Ahmed (a man says to a child who asked for a cocktail, "I don't work for you," and to adults, "I'm not working here for thanks," for bringing drinks, slaps his pocket hinting at tips, we always gave them to different guys, but we wanted to send these two) and him a friend of Mahmut (who likes to say: "have a good rest for you, I'll bring everything now" and disappear for half an hour, but that's still okay, but here's what he brought frankly sour beer that stood on another table for more than 30 minutes and was not drunk by the vacationer and instead of replacing it, he I decided to transfer it to another vacationer (the economical guy turned out to be). Therefore, people go to this bar themselves and bring themselves alcohol, the guys run around, but they are not visible, especially if they brought an order a couple of times, and you did not leave tea for them. In general, I can safely conclude that most likely they think that everyone is sitting here drunk and you can communicate and do what you want. I recommend putting a manager in this place, we are not the only ones who witnessed this attitude (here is another case: burgers promised to people are brought in 30 minutes at best, and if you do not remind 5 times, they will not bring at all (there were such cases), but as soon as you say that you will call the manager now, then the burger Magically, it appears on your desk after 2 minutes. We have been here for weeks and realized how the hotel tries to give the best to people and corrects mistakes. Thank you all for the rest)
Minus a star for cleaning and service at the bar 24 hours

The advantages of the hotels are a beautiful view · A calm atmosphere
The license plates are old , everything looks better in the photo than in real life. At the time of the launch of the hotel, everything was modern, expensive and made of high-quality materials, but the years go by and take their toll. The paint on the doors is peeling, the tiles on the seams in the bathroom have mold. There is not enough space in the closet for two people. The refrigerator is not working well. In general, a general cleaning is necessary with the removal of all tables, cabinets, and beds in order to wash well from dust and dirt. Then it will immediately become more pleasant and comfortable to live)))
Entertainment and entertainment Animators are trying to make the rest more fun and intense. It all depends on the people and their active or passive position. You can always dance in the morning, play darts or volleyball, go up to the pool for water aerobics, yoga on the beach in the evening. Children's animation, like everywhere else, is dancing, but there are also magic tricks that children especially like. For adults - Miss Hotel and Mr. Hotel, Karaoke and Dancing from balanceevent.com they are called Cubans who will not leave you indifferent. But if you come for more than 10 days, then you will frankly get bored, learn the dancers' numbers by heart, they do not change, like the concept of the rest of the shows. There is a spa where you can relax and a gym. There is a football field and a tennis court behind the first barrier from the exit .
It is safe, because taxis are not allowed on the territory of the hotel, only up to the second barrier, security is 24 hours.
Pedestrian accessibility to the city is far enough away, you can't do without a taxi. A bus runs through the hotel every 7-8 minutes, but not 5 as they say, during this time you can usually safely walk to the reception, but if you are lucky, a smiling driver will give you a ride.
The food and drink are excellent, you can always find something to eat, but if you rest for more than 10 days, then everything will get boring, because the menu repeats. But at the same time you will have crabs, squid, octopus, alternate constantly and shrimp - (once a week, twice on Friday, I think this is their day) Excellent steaks, especially if you have time to take them as soon as they are removed from the stove. Good desserts and pizzas with pastas. Fruits are available as in all hotels in Egypt: citrus fruits , apples, melons , dates, quinces, bananas. You can safely go for food and not worry, you will not be hungry. - Breakfasts, that's a failure with them and everyone notices it, so from 11 on the beach at the bottom of the queue for burgers and pizza. You can have breakfast, but you will get tired of fried eggs , beans in the morning for an amateur, as well as dry sweet croissants with chocolate, there are yoghurts and a couple of cereals. Bottom line: You can have breakfast, but the choice is extremely small. Snack on the beach: Pizza, fries, burgers, cutlets, chicken , fish, vegetables Lunch is good, there is more choice in the main restaurant, but in the summer there is everything + ice cream (ice cream juice from the vending machine at the pool bar) Snack : Pizza Dinner is excellent + ice cream vanilla or chocolate (main restaurant) 2 restaurants can be visited for a rest AL DENTE ( excellent cuisine , for an additional fee you can buy a bottle of wine and lobster ) and SUN SET ( Asian cuisine is slightly sharper than in the main restaurant a couple of dishes , there are red fish , strawberries and good cheeses : brie , cream , etc. are not plastic, as at breakfast and at this there are no differences)
Interesting details The reef is quite lively, there are many fish, the depth of the pontoon is 7 meters, 20 meters deep to the left and right sides. Ordinary fish, as on all reefs, but sometimes exotic things come: a huge Napoleon, a Needle, a Lionfish, but in general the sea lives and you need to swim every day, you can meet a stingray on a wild beach, but a Moray Eel lives to the right of the pontoon, but you can't always see it, it's how lucky you are) It is as comfortable as possible that the pontoon is small and you do not need to walk for hours to the sea, the tides are small, the bay is quite windless. The water temperature in March was 22-24 degrees (air from 21-32), in some places it was possible to get into the cold current, but in general you can swim after 1.5 minutes of getting used to.
Taxi is the most budget option to call through Indrive. The exchange rate is black, so you can change everywhere, but in the telegram group it is convenient to change rubles , usdt and dollars
There are so many reviews and comments in the Google search engine, the merit of the animators is to go home to get a po. There is a plan for comments , as I understand it , and everyone is asked to put 5
For Egypt, this is a solid 5. Excellent reef, excellent food, good rooms, if far away, then a bus goes every 5 minutes and this greatly helps those who do not like to go on vacation, that is, everyone). For fans of coffee, I will say that there are three types of it: the one that is always brought to you from the vending machine, the ground one that you ask for personally and the ground one that you ask for in an amount of more than one cup). The best one is the one that is brewed for you in a single copy. Everyone loves when there is a tip, $ 1 will not go broke, but the difference will be significant in service. Animation is not Turkey, but the animation team is good. The entertainment program is a little weak. It doesn't depend on the animators themselves.
We were in September for 8 nights, 9 days. Early arrival and departure at 21.30. The superior room was paid for, we were settled in a room without a balcony 2219. As always, they said come back tomorrow, we'll change it. In the evening, we walked around the territory, took a ride on taf-taf. The next day we were offered room 4150, almost at the exit of the hotel, and we hoped to be right next door. It was a 5-minute walk from the room to the entire infrastructure. Therefore, we decided that we did not want to ride taf-taf, you can't run to the room once again in the heat, far away. In principle, the balcony was not needed, everything dried perfectly in the bathroom.
Food: for breakfast and lunch we went to the main restaurant, for dinner to the Italians in the sea breeze. We are unpretentious in food, but on the third day of our stay we realized that all the food was boring. There is no variety, it is the same every day. My husband has been taking tea and bread and butter for the last three days. The oil, by the way, is very good. My husband got rum and beer from alcohol. There were good cocktails, on the beach in plastic, in the Pub in glass.
The sea and the beach: the beach is clean, there were a lot of free sunbeds. The reef didn't impress me. However, corals were more diverse. There are not very many fish. Once we saw a shark's fin, we were all driven ashore. On the day of departure, a small one sailed. We saw a large flock of dolphins hunting, twice moray eels of 3 meters, twice turtles of different species and sizes, stingrays, large barracudas. But, there were strong currents every day, especially to the left. We saved people several times, we couldn't swim out.
I made a CONCLUSION for myself: I don't want to go there a second time. WHY: a large area and you need to immediately take a deluxe room (they are all within walking distance from the reception, restaurants, beach), which means the price will be more;
The food is not varied;
and the most important thing for me is not safe swimming (sharks, currents).
I forgot, there is an elevator to the beach, this is a huge plus. The Turkish manager, who could be seen every day, controlled everything.
great hotel. the rooms are clean, several pools, all pools are clean, it's nice to swim. the food is 4.5, but only because it is quite monotonous, BUT everything is delicious!
a private beach with a good reef, better than in Taba. I highly do not recommend an excursion to the canyon, the only good thing is a yacht in Taba with a 5-minute trial scuba dive. But the reef is boring there.
The hotel is very beautiful, especially the territory and the reef. Only, for this, you have to come here!
You can always find places on the beach, there are small coves for children, where you can also see corals and fish, where the fish swim right to your feet themselves. The reef is just a fairy tale, like in the movie "Avatar". An excellent diving center, where you will be taught everything and friendly staff. The food is not bad, but without frills, we all had familiar and favorite dishes: mashed potatoes (very tasty), all sorts of different cutlets, meat of different types, chicken breast nuggets (much tastier than in kfc), delicious pasta with different sauces (although I do not like pasta, but I also ate I liked it because they cook Italian pasta, slightly undercooked Al dente), well, the pizza is ordinary. There have always been different fish, especially sea tongue, pickled octopuses stewed or in a salad, shrimp quite often. There was even borscht. 2 times we were in the restaurant by appointment in Italian and Oriental, I liked the oriental more (we took everything ourselves, and it was very tasty), Italian does not hold up, but you can also eat fish and shrimp there, I took pizza with tuna - not bad. Many thanks to the gardeners, the territory is being watched with trepidation-well done!!!! The animation is live, you won't be bored in the evening, a great show always, then a disco and live music in the Caribbean bar, there are professional artists playing, singing and dancing with you, the soloist is just a bomb!(sings from the heart in English and Spanish and even Italian ).A big minus and even a fat one are the rooms, they are dirty, the staff either does not have time, or is not trained, they behave very aggressively, they can wash the windows and the toilet with one rag, everything is stained and mirrors and floor. After cleaning, you will find a lot of things. How, mosquitoes attacked us, they were merciless there, they killed us all night, no mood. They asked for another room, and a mosquito repellent. Jeanette from the reception helped us as much as she could, thank you very much for your patience. Oh, so everything is fine, all the cons have blocked the reef and the territory!!!! Come there for exactly that, have a good rest!
A large territory, its own beach, the sea is excellent. The buffet is varied, the pastries are not very good. We went to the evening entertainment several times. I recommend a hotel.
The hotel is cool, the food is also delicious, the cuisine is varied, there are two al a map, the territory is large and green, a pontoon of 10 meters and immediately the sea with beautiful reefs
We were at the hotel in May 2024, everything is super and the territory, the food is staff, although the rooms are a little tired, but we were practically not there, so the rooms are good for me, the sea is a separate topic, it's a fairy tale, the reef in general 🔥

I stayed at this hotel in April 2024. I will be happy to share my honest review.
It is worth starting with the fact that the hotel is located in close proximity to the airport. We drove for about 25 minutes on the transfer (taking into account the transportation of other tourists). Upon arrival at 8 a.m., we went through the registration procedure at the reception, our company was given bracelets and invited to breakfast. Check-in was at 14:00, so we quietly left our things at the reception and went to enjoy our vacation on the beach.
🏝️The structure of the hotel:
The hotel itself is divided into two large parts. The first is restaurants, reception, club, swimming pools and beach (located on three floors). The second is a residential area, a stage and shops. The unusual thing is that the first part of the hotel seems to be located at different heights of the cliff. You can move between floors either on foot or by elevator, which is especially pleasing after a day of swimming in the sea.
Delicious and varied food and drinks. We found new goodies every day. If this is your first time going on vacation to Egypt, be sure to try Guava juice. There are several restaurants on different levels - everyone will find something to their liking. Two a la carte restaurants. The recommendation is to make an appointment as soon as you arrive (places are tight).
🐠🪸The amazing reef is full of everything from small fish and turtles to huge moray eels and stingrays. We spent hours swimming with masks and filming the beauty of the Red Sea. During my 6 trips to Hurghada, Sharm and Mars Alam, it was the best reef.
🏊🏻♀️The pool system consists of 10 pools. Some are very cool.
🗄️The room stock is different. We were not very lucky, we were settled in the farthest block (6th, I think). It was located 10 minutes from the sea. At first, we were worried about this, but a well-developed mini-transfer network eliminated this discomfort. 5 minutes - and you are at the reception. The room is ordinary, the renovation is standard, without excess, as in most hotels in Egypt. It's clean, there's air conditioning and everything you need to relax. If possible, request accommodation closer to the main building, or near the transfer stops.
🪩💃🏻 The evening show program of gymnasts, dance group and vocalists should be highlighted separately. Rare high-level professionals. The costumes are perfect, the masterful performance of various national dances and songs. We enjoyed going every evening. For lovers of nightlife, there is an opportunity to listen to club music on the premises.
The hotel staff is very polite and helpful. Without intrusive suggestions and comments. Many thanks for creating a relaxing atmosphere.
🇮🇹 As the locals told us, this hotel used to be in high demand among Italians. After the quarantine, the hotel opened its doors to all tourists. Be prepared for the fact that Italians have their own recreation area on the beach and in restaurants. The staff is more attentive to them, as they receive generous tips.
In conclusion, I want to say that 12 days of rest will allow you to completely reboot. Prices have increased a lot this year, but I would love to go again with my family.
Here are some photos for inspiration.
We stayed at this hotel in June 2024. The hotel is nice, but the service is terrible.. You walk up to the bar, you stand in line.. They either don't notice you or just leave.. Russians are not held in high esteem in this hotel. You should not take a taxi at the hotel, a very unpleasant man who organizes taxis and buses promises you that a taxi will arrive and pick you up in 5 minutes, but this will not happen. Take a bus for $3 and all the same.
The most wonderful thing is the reef! He's beautiful! We saw stingrays, moray eels and a lot of marine life.
The territory of the hotel is huge! The 18+ pool is very beautiful. The cactus garden is well maintained and varied.
And if you do not pay attention to the service and outdated hotel, then everything is fine! For this, I removed one star (
The location is great. The reef is gorgeous, you don't have to go anywhere to see the fish. The food is normal . There are many pools, the territory is large. We had a great time. The furniture is only old . A lot of things are worth repairing in the room.
A super coral reef! The food is excellent, no alcoholic drinks, beer for three. The territory is huge and very beautiful. We were in the middle of February 2024 and were very lucky with the weather, only one day was cloudy and windy, during which it was forbidden to swim.
Excellent, I was pleased with my stay. Friendly staff, several swimming pools, a huge garden, a buffet, comfort in the rooms, air conditioning, furniture, safe and much more
The best reef, incomparable fish, from all over Sharm el-Sheikh come there to admire the beauty.
They are fed to slaughter, delicious, you can always choose something to your taste.
The bar is gorgeous
The hotel is good!Beautiful, cozy, clean.The restaurant also has a diet menu for every taste.The only thing that is not very good...the approach to the sea, the pier is small and there are few places where you can swim.
A very beautiful hotel, a good reef, a well-groomed beach, the food was very tasty, there were crabs, shrimps. The room is clean, everything worked, I highly recommend it.
The hotel class. The attitude is great. The territory is huge. The food is delicious. We rested from 22. 09. to 29. 09. Room 1227. Huge and spacious. You can find all the information on my t/c
We were from June 27 to July 8. I really liked it, we really want to come back. Good food, hotel, room cleaning every day and towels are changed. The beach is good, the reefs are fabulous and there are plenty of fish right at the entrance to the water. Take a 100% mask. In this hotel, the water world is better than on two excursions where we were, we gave money in vain.
It's an amazing place. I was here with my wife in early July 2024. The first place in a while where nothing was annoying at all. The staff has no complaints, the territory is large, well-groomed, clean. There is an elevator to the beach. The beach itself is large, the sea is excellent, very clean. The only thing that let us down is the pontoon, which is considered that there are no crowds of people preventing each other from entering and exiting the sea. Try night snorkeling - it's definitely worth it. I want to return to this place.
Hello everyone. We stayed at this hotel from March 5 to March 14, 2024. We were very satisfied, everything is fine, the rest was a hundred percent success. The hotel is wonderful, the staff is top class, thank you all very much for your work. The reef is beautiful, the food is also delicious.

They were in April 2024. Overall, a good hotel, we liked it, but as always there are pros and cons. Pros: the sea, the reef, the big beach there are enough places for everyone, the large green territory of the hotel has a place to walk, we also went to the relax pool, which was 16+, the food was quite tasty, there were shrimps, mussels and octopuses, fish in general is not bad, delicious juice. Cons: getting drinks at breakfast was infuriating, you had to come up and wait for water, coffee, tea to be given to you. It's strange that water, tea and coffee are not freely available, as a result, the queue is constant. Further, the hotel has an unfinished building on the beach, spoiling the overall view of the hotel. The rooms are tired and battered, the water has not left our shower yet, well, these are small things. The hotel's contingent is mainly Russians and Italians.
I liked everything, everything is fine, but there is one drawback - this is a call to the sea, there is only one panton (for such a number of people, the hotel is very large) . In this connection, a crowd of people is constantly trying to get down and up from the sea.
A magnificent hotel, a chic buffet, a beautiful reef, well-groomed territory, active animation and in general I really liked everything)

We were in 2023 in August. We were delighted! The cuisine is of the highest quality and variety! Everything is very tasty! Bars are everywhere, at every turn! Russian russians were almost absent, we met 2 people during a week of rest. The staff is also all smiling, friendly and it is clear that they know only the basic phrases in Russian, but they understand you. The territory is very large, there is a place to relax, swim and take pictures. Everything is clean, the lawn is well maintained and always watered. The room was supposed to be cleaned every 3 days, but in the end it was cleaned every day) the bed was made, towels were renewed. There is also a doctor on site. The husband was ill and was in the room for several days, before leaving they went to the medical center and after three hours the husband felt as if he was not ill (of course it cost $ 80), the medicine pleased👌
Compared to previous years, the hotel has lost its position significantly.
They were from May 10 to May 23, 2024.
Strangely, but not in the season, when the heat is below 42 in the afternoon, the hotel is crowded.
There are no seats at the tables for lunch and dinner.
There are not enough sun beds everywhere: on the beach, by the pools.
There are not enough chairs in the places where the animators hold the show.
Accordingly, the service has deteriorated.
Queues, in the main restaurant, at the counter, where tea, coffee, and drinks are poured. Well, okay, I understand that you can't trust everyone to use a coffee machine, but why not put a cooler with water for general access to pour yourself boiling water or cold water? Why do you need to stand in line for this?! Why not reinforce this point during rush hour with additional personnel?
The room was given a terrible, tiny one at all. with a rumbling air conditioner, overlooking the road along which the shuttles with tourists pass. God managed to change the words to a number in the farthest building. The refrigerator did not work in the new room. We waited several days after the application. The master came, left and disappeared. So far, after the next call, the refrigerator has been replaced with a new one. But, strangely, he barely worked either.
95 percent of Russians.
In this regard, there are a lot of drunken cattle. I am incredibly ashamed of my compatriots! Companies and single psychos, women, men, there are a lot of them, they yell, poke, rude to the staff, cling to other guests.
There is a dress code for visiting restaurants. But some ladies come to eat in clothes that belong in the bedroom. Thongs and a T-shirt on top are also bad form!
They break corals with their flippers, walk on them with their feet. For example, a man will go to the reef to fix his mask, then he pushes off and ... a handful of broken corals falls to the bottom. What nature has been creating for decades is destroyed in a few minutes. Is it really not clear that this cannot be done, and that our descendants, with this approach, will not see the beauty of the underwater world?
Despite all the warning signs, the fish are being fed! If you feed them, the reef will die, because the fish clean the corals! My compatriots feed me. Foreigners are not, they are more disciplined and take care of nature.
On foreign public sites, on Facebook, for example, people openly write about this and condemn our behavior.
Would you go there again?
No.
This is the most terrible hotel, my husband went to this hotel, but they didn't renew the room, the manager Mohammed and the other one are terrible, the person is sick, and they have a lot of rooms, inhumans. We will sue the hotel and the tour operator. They only ate and drank at the hotel, so it's their fault.
I am very happy with my stay at this hotel. Staff welcomes new guests in a friendly manner. The rooms are clean and well maintained. The food is delicious and the menu is varied. The territory is beautiful and large. Animators Inna, Masha, Galya-you are doing a great job. The atmosphere is always cheerful and everything is very diverse. Stretching, yoga and many other interesting activities👍🏼🥰☺️
