I don't like to write big reviews, BUT BOILING!
1. The flight was postponed for 6 hours. As a result, we arrived at the hotel not at 8 am, but at 2 pm.
Thanks to Biblio Globus and Russia Airlines! By the way, for 6 hours of rescheduling the departure and 5 hours of flight, a whole glass of water was served on the plane. A very generous gesture.
2. Arrived at the hotel. Dining room in the same building as the Lobby. And then we saw 2 negative factors that were throughout the rest: a million Arabs and only 6 different main hot dishes to choose from. They were just horrified. Of course there were also salads and stuff, but 6 courses were served every day for lunch and dinner. When we read the reviews about this, we thought it was written by picky people. But no. It really is. Rice, potatoes, chicken, fish (bony), fried vegetables, kebab - this is your meal for the whole holiday. In the dining room they tried only to have breakfast.

We learned a little life hack before departure - we had lunch and dinner at the cafe by the pool downstairs. Fast food for lunch.
For dinner, the food is basically the same as upstairs, but there are not many people there. Cosy. Hi Rami (Chief there)!
3. They settled almost immediately, because the time was approaching 15 o'clock (settlement time).
There was absolutely no desire to give money for a "good number". Yeah, they didn't even hint. We were given a room with a great sea view. But very old. There were problems with the electronic key. I had to go 2 times to the Reception - a long way up the hill.
4. Went for a walk around the hotel - some Arabs. Just tin. Uncultured crowd. All beds are occupied. Both by the pools and by the sea. Not a racist, but the impression is just terrible. Until you see it, you won't understand.
5. Sun loungers, as already said, are constantly busy. You need to go and throw your "towel" around 7-8 in the morning by the sea to borrow. The pool is a little later borrowed. There are very few loungers. There are even free umbrellas, but no sunbeds. Sucks! On vacation, I don’t want to get up on an alarm clock. But no other way.
6. Animation is.
It's boring in the evening. Never a youth hotel.
7. We looked at the fish in the sea through a mask - almost the only plus on this trip. Very beautiful!

During the week, the number of Arabs decreased, while "Russian speakers" increased. The impression has changed a little. We played volleyball and darts with some Arabs - good and positive people.

Were before that in Turkey for 80 thousand for 10 days. This is All Inclusive real. Food, drinks, attitude, contingent, hotel, nature, country - everything is just at the highest level. You give money and never regret it for a minute. But why people choose Egypt, we do not understand. Such a vacation should cost 5.000 rubles, not 10.000 rubles. We will never go there again and will discourage everyone we know. In our understanding, THIS IS NOT A REST!
