The rest was with children according to the UAL system. We arrived at the airport at 11 am. We got to the hotel only by four (at the end we found out that the driver just got lost and did not immediately find all the passing hotels), so the check-in happened instantly, without waiting. We were immediately greeted with a cold drink, which was nice, even despite the winter period, and they told us in detail what is included in the ultra all inclusive system.
The room was large and spacious, visually clean. If you look closely, of course there were shortcomings, the cleaning was carried out superficially, but this is not critical. Once they only left gratitude and that's it, but it didn't affect anything.
The food is simply impeccable, in comparison with Egypt and Turkey. On Thu and Fri there were seafood dishes all day, I do not take into account the fish, it was always there. For drinks in the restaurant, waiters serve and also accompany you to your place. Tables were always clean and set. In the evening there was always live music on the street and a belly dance every other day.

We never went to the amphitheater, but there was always some kind of show. The animators worked with children almost all day and in the evening. The children were happy.
Weather. We were very lucky with the weather. Upon arrival, it was only a little fresh for two days, and then everything got better and we enjoyed the perfect temperature for relaxing! In the evenings it was really cool, without pants and jackets you will shiver, but in the cafe they gave blankets.
Sea! It won me over! Clean, iridescent, sparkling, as if small diamonds are floating on it and alluring))) and no oil floats, and there are no fish scales either !! ! Yes, fishermen catch fish with nets, the spectacle is not for the compassionate, I went to see it once, I thought I would become a vegetarian for life))) but this did not affect the sea and the beach where tourists rest. And what a sand there! Soft, caressing your tender legs, pouring between your tiny fingers....I am writing this comment and hochchuuuuu now back. In fact, I really didn't want to leave! Seven days flew by without a hitch.
Are there any cons for this hotel? There is. But they are so tiny. . .
So the cons:
1. The Internet catches rather weakly, in some places, or the network may completely disappear.
2. For me, this turned out to be a huge minus one day, when after arrival we were late for breakfast the next day. There is nowhere to eat during the day, only for money, even on the ultra all inclusive system. This not only upset me, but also upset me!
3. Also an important minus. After 12 on the day of check-out you eat for a fee. $40/person Buffet.
4. There is nothing in the vicinity of the hotel. The desert and the road and the mosque. We found a small shop where everything is stuck. And chemistry, and some products, and things, and magnets. We did not like it, and the prices are not the cheapest. If you take a taxi, then there is a market, about 5 km, or maybe more, and there is a supermarket there.
Pluses for the UAL system (I specify, because I don’t know if this works for AL):
1. The bar is replenished daily and is included in the payment for accommodation (beer, juices, mirinda).

2. From drinks, you can order not only pure drinks, but also cocktails, including children's (not everyone knows this).
3. Alcohol is also included in the disco!
The only thing is that the hookah is paid for 60 dirhams (20 dollars), but for me one time was enough.
You can pay at the hotel in any currency (dollars, euros, cards), but change is given by local incomprehensible pennies)))) And yet, the hotel rented a car with a driver for 10 hours - $ 200 (we went to Dubai), we are very satisfied, car comfortable, clean and silent driver)))
This is the first trip to the UAE and the hotel left only positive emotions. I'm already looking at this hotel again for the end of the year!
