It's all very sad

Initially, I want to say that the reason for writing this review was a desire to warn about possible circumstances, and not just show dissatisfaction or “fee” about the hotel itself.

Perhaps a year or two ago it was a wonderful place for a family, relaxing holiday. But after the Egyptian political crisis, the situation for this hotel (and for many others) has changed dramatically. So be vigilant, read the current reviews, and most importantly - “the miser pays twice! »

Visually, Onatti is what it looks like in the photo “for tourists”, that is, new and well-groomed. By the time we got there, there was already a lot of greenery. The area is not big, but nice.
There is a pontoon on the beach, still unfinished but "walkable". From it you can go down almost to the edge of the crust.

You can swim with a mask without the risk of “getting close to a hedgehog” only behind the crust. What kind of fauna is there, corals, I can’t describe, because.

the wind was very strong, and it was not realistic to go beyond the crust. If we are not lucky with the weather like we are, snorkelers have nothing to do.

Cuisine and Service suffered the most. Due to the small number of people in the hotel (about 8 people on the first day), there was no Swedish table in principle. On the next day settled 100 people. and the choice and the table appeared, but it is unlikely that it will be possible to call it Swedish, because the settlers were Arabs and the kitchen became
predominantly national.

Separately, for drinks, there were no juices, there were UPI and hibiscus, beer in 200g glasses, wine (only red). For every glass of "alcoholic", you need to sign! So if you suddenly want to stop drinking - you are here!

Service
As the owner himself said, they had to greatly reduce the number of staff, and even save on its quality. In view of this, the service in the hotel was practically absent.
I do not belong to the category of tourists who consider Russian the second state language in Egypt, but should they know English at the hotel?

We spent two "unforgettable" days in Onatti, after we moved from another hotel (thanks to the TezTour representative for help). This was enough for us to be guided by the three principles that I indicated at the beginning when choosing a hotel in the future.
Any questions - I'll be happy to answer.
