Everything is perfect in the hotel, hotel in the city, shops and restaurants were close. No frills food, everything was enough for us, natural good bottled beer. The drinks were good, the food was good. The room is also normal, within 3-4 balls. Everyone there has become very intrusive, tipping rates have increased, it looks arrogantly that you give little. … More ▾ Everything is perfect in the hotel, hotel in the city, shops and restaurants were close.

Everyone there has become very intrusive, tipping rates have increased, it looks arrogantly that you give little. They ask for everything, for accommodation in the room, for where the windows will go, and moreover, 10.20, 40, even 50 dollars. I give the porter 2.3 or 5, he looks at me with an expression of "what are you giving me? ", they impudently extort money, they must be treated the same way. We were previously in Taba, in Hurghada for the first time, we expected more . . The beach suited us, the city itself certainly did not impress, the dirt... Asia is Asia. The hotel itself is not bad.

Be prepared that upon arrival before 14:00 you will most likely not be settled immediately and will not be sent for breakfast, and if you leave after 12:00 you will be evicted until this time and you will not be fed lunch or dinner, which is very inconvenient if you You are expected to check out late. Those are the rules there. … More ▾ Be prepared that upon arrival before 14:00 you will most likely not be settled immediately and will not be sent for breakfast, and if you leave after 12:00 you will be evicted until this time and you will not be fed lunch or dinner, which is very inconvenient if you You are expected to check out late. Those are the rules there.
In all other respects, you are a welcome and important guest of the hotel, this is manifested in everything, they greet you, they smile at you, they are ready to help in everything, only if you are not ill at night, you did not have the necessary medicines, and you are not ready to call an expensive doctor, which the hotel provides, then count on yourself and city pharmacies.
We are newlyweds and indicated this in the application and spoke at the reception from the very beginning, but we were not surprised by anything other than a piece of cake in 500 g after dinner in the room. There was hope for fruit in the room or rose petals, well, at least swans from towels, but nothing.
There was also a question about the figures made of towels, no matter how funny it was, but they didn’t make them in the villa’s room with a tip, but in the main building they played something every day. But everything is in our hands and we made a good example of a swan, plus they wrote on a piece of paper to do something like that, and in the last two days they made swans and a crocodile for us.
The food at the hotel is excellent, here you have fish, and meat, and various side dishes, and a vegetarian menu, sweets, fruits and drinks for different tastes and colors.
The hotel has a very beautiful green area, which is looked after every day.
The sea and the beach is the best and most beautiful place of the hotel.
The hotel also has a pier with an island where you can walk and enjoy the sea at any time of the day.

Very European, despite the fact that the building itself is in the Egyptian style from the outside. The food is good, I see the situation has changed, I read past reviews. Fruit, but not much. The SERVICE is just excellent, everyone is friendly, the waiters in the main restaurant serve, bring drinks, clean dirty dishes right away. … More ▾ Very European, despite the fact that the building itself is in the Egyptian style from the outside.

The rooms are perfectly clean, even without a tip, bedding and towels are changed every day.

When we arrived to check in, they immediately brought cold drinks, settled instantly! Without any hint of an additional charge, a room with a sea view, there is Wi-Fi, both in the room and on the beach and near the pool. We moved to it from Golden 5 paradise, because it was impossible to stay in it, a terrible hotel (the price for hotels is approximately the same), so Continental is just a PARADISE compared to Golden 5 Paradise!

Impressions from the rest are indescribable. You feel like a person, absolutely all the staff are polite, no one is nervous.
And most of all I was pleased with the contingent - Germans, Italians, Serbs.

On the territory of 3 restaurants, in addition to the main one: Italian, grill, seafood. You can go to Italian 2 times for free.

The sea with a beach, but deep, there is no reef on the shore, you just need to sail on a boat. There are fish, though not as diverse as in the reef.

We got to the hotel very early, before breakfast. We were told that there were no available rooms yet and they would be settled at best by dinner, but after breakfast, one of the authorities came to the lobby, noticed and they quickly found a room for us, and they did it with not very friendly faces. There is nothing special to describe the number, it is not new for a long time, but it is working. … More ▾ We got to the hotel very early, before breakfast.

There is nothing special to describe the number, it is not new for a long time, but it is working. We didn’t turn on the air conditioner and didn’t use the TV, on the first day at the Sheraton my husband and I bought a local SIM card to be in touch everywhere, we definitely didn’t intend to sit in the hotel. The rest of the staff is also different, the bartenders are normal, the waiters work quickly, the cleaners around the territory and pools are conscientious, the room was cleaned when we were on the beach, they didn’t interfere at all, sometimes they left a dollar. The beach is nearby, it is better to look for free places in advance. The sea is warm, we swam every day, there was no strong wind. The food is normal, we have no complaints, the choice may not be very large, but the food is not bad, there was enough meat, enough fresh vegetables, desserts are excellent. Local alcohol, we drank only beer, and we always take strong with us. The animation is not very intrusive, all the traditional entertainment is there. In addition, we visited Cairo, went to the island of Utopia, we found everything on Tiba Turcom. In general, the hotel is suitable for a relaxing holiday, there is no loud noise here, I think the hotel is worth my money, so you can safely go.

In general, we liked the hotel. Of course, shortcomings can be found always and everywhere, but in general the hotel is not bad and worth the money. The biggest plus for us is, of course, the first line, the beach is not the biggest, but there were always enough places for us, although we like to sleep and from seven in the morning the sunbeds did not occupy. … More ▾ In general, we liked the hotel.

The biggest plus for us is, of course, the first line, the beach is not the biggest, but there were always enough places for us, although we like to sleep and from seven in the morning the sunbeds did not occupy. The water is already at normal temperature, you can swim. The underwater world in the hotel's water area is such an amateur, sophisticated tourists may not like it, there is not much variety of either fish or corals. The territory of the hotel is clean and well-groomed, it is clear that the staff is trying, the lawns are watered, there is no garbage anywhere, the pools are monitored. In general, the food was not bad. We certainly didn’t go hungry, you can always choose something from chicken, beef or fish, there are a lot of vegetables in different forms, we didn’t even look at the side dishes. In the evening they give not bad desserts, there is plenty to choose from. They drank mainly cocktails from alcohol, the bartenders are smiling, they work quickly, however, like the waiters in the restaurant, the table is cleaned in a few minutes maximum. Entertainment at the hotel. You can go for exercises or aerobics, play something if you want, the animators will always support you. In the evening, not bad performances are held, it is especially interesting when guest artists do this. In addition, we went to Luxor, a beautiful historical place, we drove ATVs through the desert, the guide from the operator really has such expensive things, so look for midobikhams on social networks, save decently. The contingent was different, mostly Western Europeans, Russian speakers and Arabs too. What kind of Internet was not checked at the hotel, since my husband and I bought one SIM card for two at the airport, since we need to be constantly in touch at work, by the way, the connection is very fast and there were no glitches, 10 gig was enough for a week with a head, although We often watched movies in the evening. The hotel can be advised to friends and acquaintances, as a relatively inexpensive place, with good food and service on the first line.

Last year, our friends rested in this hotel, we decided to go to this hotel together with a friend. One of the important factors was the sea, in terms of the fact that we do not like the Azov option with a long approach, but here a couple of meters and immediately the depth, this bribed us. Since I started from the sea, I will describe the entire beach point by point. … More ▾ Last year, our friends rested in this hotel, we decided to go to this hotel together with a friend. One of the important factors was the sea, in terms of the fact that we do not like the Azov option with a long approach, but here a couple of meters and immediately the depth, this bribed us. Since I started from the sea, I will describe the entire beach point by point. The beach is not very big, but it is a few meters from the main building. As I already wrote, the entrance is not gentle, several meters and depth, in general, it was very comfortable for us to swim and swim. The hotel, as it were, has its own bay, we didn’t feel much wind, but it’s in the water. It's cool to go out, but not for long. Nearby, another bay for boats is fenced off, respectively, no stains, no smell, or other unpleasant moments were created from them. There are a lot of umbrellas and sunbeds, and there were enough of them for the whole hotel. The beach has a bar, shower, toilet, by the way, very clean. The sunbeds are new, there are barriers from the wind, there is shade both from umbrellas and from several rows of palm trees that grow right near the shore, and there are beautiful flowers in front of the beach, in general, the beach is very cozy and clean. There are wicker chairs and tables on the lawns under palm trees, and in front of the beach and the main building there is a large swimming pool. In the room we were settled quickly, despite the fact that we arrived at the hotel in the morning. The room is standard, with two large comfortable beds, there is an area with a table and easy chairs, a separate dressing table with a chair, a spacious wardrobe, but not enough hangers, I had to put a lot of things on the shelves. The room has a safe, kettle (tea, coffee available), mini-bar, central air conditioning. The bathroom is not very big, but there is a comfortable large shower room, the shower is removable, it is very convenient, there is a separate foot tap a little lower, there is a bidet, the hair dryer worked surprisingly well. Balcony, there is a table and chairs of the beach option. We had a side view of a piece of the sea and yachts, very picturesque, we liked to drink coffee like that in the morning. It is also very cool that the hotel is right next to the airport, although not in the city itself, but we didn’t need it. We really wanted to travel on excursions, because it’s like in Egypt without them, and even when it’s here for the first time. I can especially recommend the super el gouna class tour. Here you immediately get five in one. This is El Gouna itself and a visit to the Dolphin Bay, which also includes a bathyscaphe and a banana with a pill. They also ate seafood for lunch. And the price is ridiculous at only $40. But we took excursions from a local company from the operator, the same excursion costs $ 65. The company itself can be easily found by the name cami tour in the Yandex search. In addition to outside the hotel entertainment, there are also all sorts of entertainment in the hotel itself. The animators are very cheerful, every day we were pleased with something new and interesting, in addition to the main exercises, contests and evening animation. If you wish, you can separately ride on various water rides, but we were not interested. And so they played darts, did aerobics with the guys, played volleyball, and also listened to very beautiful live music. The staff is always willing to help or give advice if needed. They know several languages, they can even say a few words in Ukrainian, it was very nice. The food, although not the most varied, is always delicious. We found meat, fish, many side dishes, greens, fruits. The cocktails were not all delicious, but we chose a couple of good ones for ourselves, and a couple of bucks to the bartender improved their quality. From drinks we took cocktails with rum, they are the most drinkable, as it seemed to us. And we also liked the hammocks on the territory between the palm trees, often lying there. As for me, it is a very good place, we rested with pleasure.

We got to the hotel in the evening, dinner was already on, so we were first sent to eat, and then settled. It is still very cool in the evening and we first of all checked in the room how the air conditioner works for heating, and then we examined the plumbing and furniture. Everything, of course, is not new for a long time, it would be time to update it, but the most important thing is that it worked without failures. … More ▾ We got to the hotel in the evening, dinner was already on, so we were first sent to eat, and then settled.

The territory of the hotel is quite large, clean, well-groomed, there are green places, I generally liked it. The hotel is on the first line, we always found free sunbeds nearby. From ten to sixteen the weather is still normal, you can sunbathe, unless of course there is no wind. The water for me is still cold, I didn’t swim much, although entering the water is very convenient. The husband swam more and further, but says that there is nothing super interesting, there is no reef, only dead pieces, only small fish came across, maybe you will be more lucky. The food was more or less, but of course there is nothing for gourmets to do here, there are always queues, especially for scrambled eggs in the morning and meat for lunch or dinner. There are a lot of side dishes, they are all repeated every day, fresh vegetables do not taste good, stews can be half-baked, there are not many fruits. For something tasty, you only have to go to the city, to a fish restaurant or a steak to eat. Alcohol in the hotel is local, nasty, so take a normal one with you. Entertainment at the hotel is standard, the usual daily animation, a kids club, similar evening performances have already been seen more than once. There is no Internet, buy a SIM card either at the airport or in the city. The staff is different, there are positive, smiling guys, and there are those as if you owe them something, they can ask for a tip without hesitation, we somehow talked a little with them and it’s good that we didn’t have any serious problems. Of the additional entertainment, we took a trip to Cairo, in general, Hurghada, on a Tibatur com, and chose because of this, and took a boat ride on the high seas to the island. In general, the hotel, in my opinion, does not pull for a five, it looks more like a one-time four, I don’t find a single reason to return here for myself.

Tired furniture, the climate system is old and loud - it is difficult to choose a mode - it will be difficult to sleep with an open window, because the mattresses are tired, there are additional folding beds, but when it unfolds, a gap forms there, the person who cleaned the room laid it for us, then we slept on it. … More ▾ Tired furniture, the climate system is old and loud - it is difficult to choose a mode - it will be difficult to sleep with an open window, because the mattresses are tired, there are additional folding beds, but when it unfolds, a gap forms there, the person who cleaned the room laid it for us, then we slept on it.
Bring electronic mosquito repellant.
The beach, the cleanliness of the beach, the area is like a 5 star hotel, palm trees - everything is beautiful.
The reef is there under the bridge with dead corals, you will not see fish there.
Animation is super. There is a girl Anya from Belarus - she was created for children, she is super, she will "save" you from children. She actually saved this hotel from complete despondency. And yes, the animation is great. Retirement and kids have fun.
Service - reminiscent of a jukebox - gave a dollar - they will pay attention to you, but not for long. Saves but not much. In general, if you approach someone and ask for something, then you need to give him $ 1 - this annoyed me. My wife did not want to communicate with them because of this. In short, there is no service, 1 dollar bills will be "kindly" offered to you by the waiter in the dining room. We are not used to this - you have to go everywhere with money. There is NOTHING FOR FREE. It seems that they did us a favor, that we came to them and paid them money.
Alcohol must be taken with you. It's disgusting there.
Nutrition. The food is normal, but the same type is not critical. Children, as always and everywhere - on pasta. At lunch and in the evening they give a beaker of wine - 50 grams. We like to sit as a family for dinner and drink 200 grams of wine. You can't even ask with dollars.
Upon arrival, your children will not be fed if you arrive ahead of time, as in principle, and populate. We were offered to pay $ 5 per person so that we could go to the dining room, so I didn’t want to give them. When asked to provide a restaurant not in their complex, we were told that there was none. And there is nothing there. In the west. My wife made a scandal at the reception, the Egyptian guide from the santoor resolved this issue, we fed the children (as a token of gratitude, we ordered a tour from him, and they are triple the price from him). Thanks to him. They didn't even give us lunch when we left. Nevertheless, the father (80 years old) had lunch, he did not care about anything. Nobody told him anything, we didn’t take the children to feed - we didn’t want a scandal.
With what I compare - hotels SHARM EL SHEIKH. Was there in 4 and 5 stars. (EXPIRANSE, SULTAN GARDEN - they are nearby. ) There were some nuances, but not of such a scale and were not connected with accommodation, food, comfort. There, in general, mothers are first driven into the dining room to feed the children, then some decorations.
Children are delighted, Parents also resented the service, but in general, a comfortable entrance to the water blocked the negative.
I won't go there a second time. It all seemed to me like begging - so they took the money, which I have to go everywhere with money. Generally disgusting.
Anyone who is accustomed to the service here is prohibited.

The food is varied (a lot of vegetables in any form, there is beef, chicken, fish), but almost the same every day. But A la Carte restaurants are full f * pas and profanity. You can tell a lot, but! This hotel is perfect for parents with young children, couples over 45. Youth and newlyweds do not need to go there.

We stayed at the hotel in September. The hotel itself is not big but very comfortable, everything is within walking distance. We got a room on the ground floor with a view of the park, very quiet, because if you go to the pool it will be noisy. The territory is clean, well-groomed. The beach is not big, but there are a lot of tourists and they are all (surprisingly) on the beach, there are few tourists near the pool. … More ▾ We stayed at the hotel in September.

The sea is a lagoon, there are no waves, on the right side there is a Marina with boats. One restaurant. The food is average, average, no frills. The room is very large, with a large bathroom and a large terrace. Located on the promenade, there is where to go shopping and take a taxi to the city. Well, whatever you want. The Internet is normal, in the lobby - excellent, even on the beach but weaker. The staff is very friendly, any problem or request is solved quickly. In general, a very good hotel, I recommend it to everyone. Have a nice rest!

Thanks for your reply! With animation, everything is clear, but with regard to the sea - I'm interested in whether there is really a smooth entrance and sufficient depth for swimming? do you need special shoes?
