Rested with a friend in this hotel in February 2008. In general, not bad. Especially for those who travel for the first time. I will write what I saw.
about everything in order:
1. Accommodation
in Aquamarine Beach, the rooms are old (16 years old hotel), be ready right away. everything is more than modest.
in the new buildings you can find canopy beds and luxury showers with bathtubs. . there is nothing like that here. It's a nightmare. . the room was terrible. . The beds are skewed, there is mold in the shower and it hasn't been washed for probably 5 years. . .
Beach is 42.43. 44 buildings. Ask to settle at 42 (at 44 you are unlikely to be accommodated - half are under repair, and the second part is always occupied by timeshares), 43 is out of the way. And 42 is in the center of all life - there is a pool, disco, amphitheater nearby , restaurant, 3 min walk to the sea. This is a plus
2. Territory

Huge, clean, well-groomed . . there is where to walk and what to see. We didn’t go around the whole week.
But now there is a construction site. What is being built is unclear...
too lazy to walk, there are minibuses taf-taf. they take you around the hotel for free. BUT! from them then the whole neighborhood stinks of gasoline for a long time . . very nice, right? something the same. . .
3. Design
everything is standard, as for Egypt, white houses of 2-3 floors and a balcony-terrace. Simple to disgrace.
4. Beach
go not far from the Beach buildings (we lived in 42 - it took 3-4 minutes)
well-groomed, neat beach. I liked it, but we did not swim, the sea was not warm enough. But the weather did not disappoint, under 30 *.
Sea water pontoon.... mmmm. . . this is my separate favorite topic. . .
So: there are 2 "holes" in the pontoon, covered with a net - everyone is floundering there. BUT this net is overgrown with aquatic vegetation, lets fish through and through the holes that have rotted for so long, dangerous zebra fish swim . . cool, right? I didn't swim there.
5. Service
The Egyptians are insanely nice people) everyone greets you, is interested in how you are doing . . no one is missing by the hand! They know Russian and English.
BUT everyone does it slowly and lazily... well, that's usually . . get used to it . . this is Egypt
6. Nutrition
Turkish is better in this regard, but you will not be hungry
Meals for 4. It seems that there is a lot of everything, but you really want to eat only 2-3 dishes . . and that's it... good pastries.
BUT from the "All Inclusive" system, half is really turned off. a bad system of what and where you can take and what you can't. . at 17-00 all the bars become paid, except for one at the reception, it seems. . but it's far to cut there....
7. Entertainment
animators, well, just super!!! ! they do something all day long. . . entertain as best they can. . . evening programs are a bomb. Disco is paid, but worth it. I have never seen such animation anywhere. . .
That's all . . I hope my review will help someone in choosing.
