We were in this hotel 2 years ago. This time they chose him. Read the terrible reviews and was a little uncomfortable before the trip.
But all our doubts were dispelled upon arrival.
We are very pleased with the trip. And what I can recommend on my own is to understand exactly what you need on vacation and tell the travel agent about it. We went to swim in the sea with fish, and chill by the pool. We got ours. We did not care about the presence of the beach, sandy entry into the sea, animation.
1. Settlement - we were offered a room on the 2nd line. We immediately agreed because it was a suite, with a balcony and on the 2nd line, the rooms are newer and larger and the territory is beautiful. There were sounds from the airport, but somehow we got used to it and it didn’t really bother us.
A couple of times we went by bus to the sea, but we like to walk and walked more.
2. The territory is well-groomed, there is more greenery on the 2nd line. Larger pools with slides in the same place. Clean, everything is watered.
3. Food - more modest than it was, but we were not hungry. Beef, fish, legumes, rice, vegetables, salads, sweets, fruits.
There is not much variety in the choice, but everything is very tasty.
There was seafood on Friday, but we didn't like it. There were crabs that had nothing to split their shells and paws with, and the shrimp salad was very spicy, so that it burned twice, you understand. We liked the beef and chicken better.
4. The sea is amazing. Large live reef, swam on the reef of the hotel, which is currently under construction, on the left side. Lots of fish. But at different times they are either more or less. There is no beach as such. Lovers of lying on the beach are not here. It is tiny, the sun loungers there are like herrings in a barrel. All sunbeds are empty but covered with towels. entry to the beach on the steps, so with children is also not here.
We only came for snorkeling and spent the rest of the time by the pool. There are fewer people there, there are slides, and the bar is close.
5. The staff - all friendly, cleaned every day, twisted different animals from towels for us, left water, coffee, sugar. We left the guy for the candy bar cleaner. Bartenders, chefs, administration. Everything was wonderful and welcoming. Before that, we had read cool stories that someone was given little food or a cocktail seemed to be torn from the heart. We didn't have anything like that. We got the nicest people. And they rustle all over the territory - they clean, remove garbage, take care of plants.
6. Animation - we are not on these matters, we went to watch the fish and cool off with drinks by the pool, but the guys tried hard there. Every day they invited us to darts, then to water aerobics, then to yoga. There was some activity going on there. On the 1st line they played water volleyball. There is nothing special for children, it seems to me that this hotel is more suitable for adults.
7. Bars - everything is standard for Egypt, juices like Yuppies and Egyptian alcohol. There was also beer. In the evening there was wine, but in the dining room. Pour into plastic glasses or paper, if you take with you. They gave 2-4 drinks per hand for our couple, there were no problems with this.
8. Arabs - everyone is excited by the presence of the local population. When we arrived, 80% of the hotel were Arabs. Maybe we got the intelligentsia, but we did not interfere with each other at all. In the dining room a couple of times one of them climbed out of line, but the cook told them to get in line. I didn't tell the kids, but I don't mind. I was given the same good pieces as everyone else. In general, we did not feel racism towards ourselves. In the pool, we rode down the hill with them, there were a lot of young people. To be honest, we were more struck by our cattle, we had a Spanish shame. After 3 days, almost all the Arabs left and the Russians settled. But even here it was quiet, calm. Tagil did not come to this hotel, and thank God.
9. Guide - went to a meeting, took a price list for excursions, but booked elsewhere cheaper. They also took the guide's phone number, it came in handy on the last day, when there was no schedule for the transfer for a long time. The guide did not dominate us and did not force us to buy anything. He slipped some paper in which we allegedly have to sign that if we order excursions elsewhere, insurance does not apply to us and we agree with this. But we didn't sign it, we just left.
10. Internet - free Wi-Fi in the lobby. He reached right up to the room, to the balcony. I also fished all over the place. There is another wi-fi that can be connected in the room, but you will pay for it later. We had enough free, which reached the balcony.
11. Entertainment - in the evening Soho 5 minutes away, they took mangoes and sweets there. Mango $2 green, $3 red. We ate them and brought them home. We didn’t buy anything else, so we don’t believe in the power of oils, the souvenirs there are all Chinese rubbish, I just don’t know how to choose towels and the locals will cheat me, what else to take there? Medicines? I don't know much about it either, and I don't want to.
There is a minibus from Soho to the old town. We traveled, got a lot of impressions from a trip on local public transport.
In the evening we went to the Barracuda restaurant on the territory of the Hilton, ate shrimp. We lit a candle for romance, the shrimp were so beautifully preserved, and how delicious it was. They also brought drinks and french fries as a compliment from the establishment. We were just delighted. It was a pleasure. We tip with all our hearts.
In general, we have the most pleasant impressions of the rest. We liked everything.
And I also want to say that perhaps little Raccoon was right, if you smile and you have good intentions, then they will smile at you and treat you kindly.
Have a good rest, a lot of fish and fulfillment of expectations.
