Hello everyone, I arrived with my family from Egypt 10 days ago, finally chose the time to write a review. I'll start with the weather: everyone who is afraid to go to Egypt in winter, allegedly because of the windy season, is mistaken, although maybe we were just lucky (in Egypt for the third time, but we flew in for the first time). Arrived at 6 o'clock. 30 min. in the morning and we were already met by a gentle Egyptian sunrise, the temperature was +15. During the holiday at night it became even warmer (approximate temperature at night is +20 +22; during the day +28 +32). I went with my family, my husband, daughter, mother and mother's friend. A lot has been written about the hotel, basically everything is true (quality food, 5 restaurants, everything can be taken out, new spacious rooms, which is important there is a free safe, sssssuper Aqua park. ) We went to The water park every day and every day pulled out her daughter (11 years old) and mother (60 years old) by the ears, 10 minutes walk to the sea, but it's great, after a hearty meal, it's just a sin not to take a walk, especially since the air in Egypt is just a fairy tale dry, warm and with a touch of sea freshness (who was the one who will understand me). In general, I will not continue to see the reviews that were written before me. And I decided to write only because I want to share my experience on settling. In many reviews they write that the Arabs will certainly ask for baksheesh, believe me it's a lie, for three visits to Egypt I never paid for settling, at least immediately. This time, the check-in was earlier, we arrived at the hotel at 7:00 in the morning, we were very worried whether they would be settled immediately or not. My daughter and I came to the reception (grandmothers immediately went for a walk and looked around the central building, my husband took a few photos of first impressions and also came up). I wished "Good morning" in Russian, and my daughter in Arabic "Sabah el khir", she learned a few simple phrases a long time ago, while we were polite and with kind smiles. We asked for two rooms nearby and not far away. So, we had not yet had time to fill out the arrival forms, and the receptionist had already brought us the keys and cards for towels, and the porter was waiting for us with our luggage to take us to our rooms (3032 and 3033 are the coolest rooms !!! ! ! ). And only after we looked at the rooms and checked if everything was working, we went and paid $ 20 for two rooms, exactly to the guy who settled us.
In general, Russian tourists be kinder, say "thank you", "please", "good morning", etc. more often. (it is desirable to learn this in Arabic) - these are elementary signs of upbringing for which they are respected all over the world, and you will be treated as well-mannered people, and not drunkards from Russia.
Once again I want to draw the attention of everyone who will go, a hotel for families with children, there is nowhere to hang out there. For example, my husband and I didn’t even go to the evening animation, we enjoyed the fact that you can take a walk in the evening when it gets dark by the hand or sit by the house to smoke a hookah, looking at the stars, and talk calmly. Romance !! ! (After all, at home - life, work, and generally a frantic pace of life). And getting drunk and twitching at a disco is for cold, harsh Russia.

Well, that's all. If you write I will answer any questions about the hotel.
