The overall impression is very good. Rested well. There are two things for me that overshadowed the rest a little. This is unbearable heat, August and the absence of beautiful fish, which they go to the Red Sea to admire.
And now I'll start in order. We arrived at 6 am. The hotel is located in Noami Bay and overlooks the center of nightlife and entertainment. The hotel is small, cozy, but it would be a little updated, but it's not scary. Bracelets were put on at 10 and settled at 10-30. They gave me room 204. The room is big and clean. With a very comfortable mattress. Sleep comfortably. True, the room does not have a balcony, but in this heat it is not needed. In the evenings, night life was audible, but we, accustomed to falling asleep under a working TV, did not interfere. The air conditioner worked great. Did not buzz, although some complained that it was noisy. There are no Prussians and mosquitoes. They also can not stand such heat : ). Huge bathroom with shower. There has always been water. The room was cleaned every day. They left a chocolate bar once, since they didn’t take 10 pounds. The husband was chasing the janitor to give back. Everything is not new, but whole. True, we did not crawl along the baseboards with a magnifying glass and did not look for garbage. Everything worked, no noise and no leaks. We don't need more.
We only slept in the room. Two days before departure, we were moved to room 126, the room is even bigger, the bathroom is smaller. The room overlooked the pool. It was quiet, but the bed wasn't as comfortable as the first one, which was a bit of an inconvenience. From the hotel to the beach 50 meters. Trestle beds are metal, Mattresses may not be immediately from the factory, but whole and clean. They were washed every morning. There was enough space. It is worth noting that August is the time of rest for local residents. There are 70 percent of them on the coast. Almost all of them are kind, cheerful and adequate. They don't seem to know how to swim. Therefore, in the pool, saddles in the children's area and in the sea in shallow water. They sit for hours, they are also hot : ). The water temperature in the sea is + 37, in the pool +40. There is no place to cool off. You go into the sea, it seems that you are taking a bath. missing washcloth. Cool off with a shower on the beach.

Now about nutrition. There was enough food. Yes, there were no lobsters and caviar. But they were not hungry. For breakfast, pancakes, scrambled eggs, yoghurts with dry food : ), all sorts of sweet dressings, vegetables. In seven days for lunch, chicken and fish were not cooked the same way more than once. The blue ones (eggplants) were very cool, no matter how they cooked them. steamed and stewed vegetables. Potatoes have never been raw. Dinner is the same. there were also different salads, we did not take them. They're from what's left of dinner. The locals raked them up. Side dishes: two types of pasta, two types of rice, potatoes, vegetables. We must not forget that this is a troika and a pandemic. A couple of times the chef came out and was interested in whether everything was tasty and of high quality. The chefs who serve are cheerful and have a sense of humor. ALMOST everyone didn't make any difference between the locals and us. Locals for pancakes stood in a small queue like everyone else. Maximum 5-7 people. For the price of a ticket, it's just wonderful. There is no wine, beer in kegs is very tasty, my husband said that it is better than bottled. Strong drinks as everywhere in Egypt. Problems with water. They gave it immediately at the entrance, and then either buy it or quietly collect it in the cooler. The bars were open until 18 on the beach and 23 near the show area. The bartender Mustafa is very sociable and cheerful. The question of one glass in one hand has never arisen. We were not rude and smiled and received a friendly behavior and attitude in return.
Now about entertainment. Hasim, the pool lifeguard, is a kind and cheerful boy. Tries to learn our language. Knows the alphabet. Helps children, tries to amuse everyone. Animators: Mimo and Sasha (Faraoni) turned people on, DJ Peter (if he said the name correctly), just a handsome man. not just at the remote control, but also takes an active part in all competitions. Conducted mini discos for children, competitions and karaoke for adults
On Monday, I had a birthday for dinner, they brought out a cake and sang "happy birthday", in the evening there was a fire show, then they danced around me and a lot of wishes. Local vacationers also took part in the round dance. everyone was having fun and dancing. I got tremendous pleasure. Thank you guys. My husband participated in the Mr. Hotel contest, so in the morning all the local vacationers smiled at him and tried to hug Mr. Misha. They had a dance around the pool.
There is a fish restaurant 100 meters from the hotel. The colorful Captain Seryozha works in it. For 20 dollars. boiled two trays of shrimp. fresh and delicious. The perfect addition to champagne on your birthday.
