Stayed as a family of three. The hotel was chosen based on videos on the Internet and reviews. Visually, the hotel is of course very beautiful, it corresponds to the name, there are many green areas, alleys for walking, interesting places for photos, everything is cleaned, cleaned and watered, a large and beautiful lobby. Perhaps the disadvantages include the fact that you can swim fully only from a long pier, it is very shallow from the shore, plus low tide, but there is a transfer. The water is already more or less normal, but it’s still not very comfortable to enter, it seems that it’s cold, but you get used to it quickly. You can see a lot of different fish from the pier, we didn’t swim very far, but we saw a stingray regularly, once I came across a small moray eel, and there were often whole flocks of simple multi-colored fish and they weren’t afraid of people at all. There are warm pools and slides for different ages are also warm. Before lunch we went to the sea, somewhere from nine, and then to the water park, it works until 16-00 approximately, but then you can still sit in the pool. The food is generally ok. Personally, we had enough of everything and our ten-year-old son always had something to feed. Here, of course, everything is subjective, everyone has their own taste, but the food is generally standard for Egypt, the most delicious thing for me was something on the grill, fish was sometimes given tasty, sometimes not, some of the desserts were not even bad, there were a lot of vegetables in different forms , all our side dishes except buckwheat are there, so no one will go hungry for sure. We did not go to additional restaurants, people did not praise much. We categorically do not drink local alcohol, my husband puts three bottles of his favorite cognac in luggage and this is enough for us. We always buy one SIM card for communication at the airport. Orange for ten gigs, enough for everyone, the speed is better than ours, so who needs to be constantly online, do not rely on the hotel Internet, it is very weak, and it will not be everywhere. The staff works very differently, it’s just how lucky you get, they like tips, but they don’t work out. The waiters are generally nimble, the bartenders are snickering, some at first pretend not to see you. And there are normal guys, they work, sing songs, say hello, in short. Animation has not been of interest to us for a long time, my son is also not interested, he needs slides and some friends in the lobby, he was lucky that they were. We took Luxor from entertainment, I advise everyone, in my opinion it’s more interesting than Cairo and diving in a bathyscaphe, we went together with a small one, and my husband alone went diving, everyone took it on the cami-tour website, the price tag was much higher at the hotel. In general, the pros and cons can always be found, we still have positive emotions, everyone is healthy, no one was rude, there were no conflicts, which is what I wish you, and the hotel is not the worst for sure.
