EDEN ROCK is a 3 * hotel (although some sites write 4 *). My husband and I (45 and 50 years old) have just arrived from this hotel, rested for two weeks. We love quiet
cozy hotels with good service and a decent audience (no "all inclusive"). But this hotel was too quiet even for us. Those. Just a place to sleep and eat. Regarding these two positions of objection and
no complaints. BUT NOTHING MORE!! ! No hint of sports and entertainment. Beach - hotel Lido, no sunbeds
enough, 5 umbrellas for everyone, to the beach and back - 113 steps from the mountain, but the fish and corals can be seen without masks, and the entrance is sandy. The ground floor rooms face DIRECTLY TO THE POOL WITH LOUNGE LOUNGES AND VACATIONS.
Food is decent for 3 *, desserts are super! Another plus - to the center of Naama 5 minutes waddle (the same 113 steps). Everything rattles and sings there, but the hotel is quiet.

But an excursion to Jerusalem and Jordan is wonderful. Although everyone went to Jerusalem, and Jordan was considered a nice addition, it turned out quite the opposite. I will not write anything about Jerusalem, maybe I am not yet ready to perceive it. But Jordan is a beautiful country, as far as we all have noticed. Very clean, even the villages in the mountains are like dollhouses. Petra is the eighth wonder of the world! ! We walked back and forth for about 10 km without even noticing. We also had an absolutely wonderful guide - Abdel. He once translated "Eugene Onegin" into Arabic in verse! He talked a lot about the country, in general, a rather wise person with a philosophical outlook on life. By the way, he thought for a long time about crime and could not say why they were put in jail in Jordan - they don’t steal, they don’t kill, they don’t rape, they don’t cheat, they don’t drink, there are no drugs either. Although there is a prison and even the death penalty. Of the Arab countries we have seen, we liked this one the most (we have not been to the UAE).
Well, I recommend the hotel to middle-aged people who can somehow entertain themselves, take sunbeds at 7 in the morning and at the same time are able to climb 113 steep steps in the heat 3-4 times a day.
