In Egypt 4 times. For the first time I went alone, without a family, and for the first time in the four. We were at the hotel at 8 am. $ 20 at the reception solved the problem with the settlement, we did not have to wait until 14-00. HOTEL - the territory is large, not very green but well-groomed. Lots of pools. Almost all rooms have a terrace overlooking the pool. Basically convenient. ROOMS - large and the most amazing thing is that everything works, TV (LCD panel), safe, plumbing, air conditioning. Key problem. . . the card for the first 6 days was demagnetized 8 times, changed to a regular key - the problem disappeared. A huge sliding glass door opens onto the terrace. If it is loosely closed, then various insects crawl into the room. Lots of mosquitoes. Tip - keep the door closed, especially in the evening. I was surprised that if you open the balcony door, the air conditioner does not turn off as usual. FOOD - normal. Before that, I only rested in fives - there was no difference. The hotel has 5 or 6 restaurants, so during lunch or dinner you can go through them all and pick up what you like. I usually don't have breakfast. . . Eating during the day is no problem. . . pizza, hot dogs, etc. ICE CREAM - throughout the day 6-7 types. Children are very pleased that they need to impose it themselves and you can create mixes. DRINKS - for children, juices from packages, fanta cola. Beer is rubbish. Of alcohol, only rum and whiskey are suitable for food (as elsewhere in Egypt). SERVICE - trained, almost everyone speaks Russian. The rooms are cleaned normally, in principle, I'm not picky. Tips on the quality of cleaning, in my opinion, do not affect. AQUAPARK - many slides for children. Enough for adults too. There are no queues. Great water park. SEA - here is an ambush. Firstly, you need to take a bus to the beach. It goes every 15-20 minutes, but before lunch and in the evening, all the inhabitants of the "jungle" want to get to their hotel at the same time. If you are traveling with children, be careful when boarding the bus. Especially if elderly German Frau are trying to leave. They turn into small tanks. Children can simply be crushed. Well, the sea. . . I have never seen such a thing. . . Muddy, dead. At 10 cm deep, the hand is not visible. And this is the RED Sea. If you walk along the shallows 300-400m. then a normal clean water area begins there, but immediately a great depth. Not for children. And still there is little living. But the water park makes up for everything. Beach towels must be brought from the hotel. On the beach there is a bar - beer, pizza, vegetables, fruits. ANIMATION - minidisco for children in the evening. For adults, it is almost non-existent. In the evening at the disco, emptiness and despondency, but 300m. from the Gabana Klab hotel there life is in full swing, foamy discos, etc. Those who want to break away, go there. GENERAL IMPRESSIONS - a normal hotel for a family, relaxing holiday, in principle, a paradise for children. Few compatriots, which is not very good. And one more thing: a smile and the word SHUKRAN (thank you (Arabic)) on the fourth day will make you recognizable in all the bars and restaurants of the hotel and save you from minor problems. Have a nice holiday......
