Arrangement: the hotel is on the seacoast, in the resort town of Sharm el-Sheikh, in the Nabka Bay area, in 24 km from the center of Sharm el-Sheikh and in 12 km from the airport of Sharm el-Sheikh. The total area of ​ ​ the hotel is 90.000 sq. m. Capacity - 850 guests. Opening date - 2000. Now it is immediately clear that there is no sea in the hotel, and without pantone water is not like an active holiday.
1. Relaxing in a bungalow (they call them a duplex chalet) is great. The room is large, clean, a little shabby, but comfortable. There is a safe. A small private terrace with a "bed", chair, table, dryer.
2. Green beautiful and quite large area. Swimming pools, bars, free fitness center, playground.
3. The food is varied, fresh and tasty, with an Italian twist. You won't be hungry. Coffee and juices are disgusting. Better to go to the Starbucks coffee shop across the street from the hotel.

4. On the coast you can rent bicycles, mopeds, quad bikes. Bargain, the prices are called sky-high at first.
5. The beach is large and picturesque. The most interesting double "beds" with a thatched roof (houses) by the sea. They took them early in the morning. If there are a lot of ordinary wooden sun loungers, they are always free by the sea. There are few houses, but there are many who want to.
6. The sea is clean, but shallow. It is good for lovers, families with children. And adults need to go with a mask along a wooden pontoon of 100 meters. There is already more depth. Close to coral and fish. It's better to take slippers.
7. Animation is rather weak. It is designed more for Italians, who make up 70 percent of all vacationers.
8. Room cleaning every day: clean bedding, fresh towels. Swans and butterflies rolled from towels. Tip usual - 1 dollar. But I think it depends on the individual who cleans. At the end of our stay, we added a farewell tip, and we were given such arrangements of petals and birds.
9. Internet is paid. They take a lot in 15 minutes.
10. Excursions are interesting, a lot. There are plenty to choose from. The guide from Turtesse Shadi is attentive and, importantly, obligatory. He gave information on excursions, before leaving, he posted everything on time on departure and brought a printout to the rooms. It's just his job though. But we are in Egypt for the 7th time, there is someone to compare. I had to wait and look for another guide for half an hour (in the Sheraton Sharm Main Building, a guide from a turtess).
Orthodox Jerusalem, St. Catherine's Monastery. It's really worth seeing. This is the heart of civilization.
It is hot in August - 38-39 degrees, although the breeze blows. Therefore, we did not choose long tiring trips.
