I am writing a review as an experienced traveler who distinguishes 5 * Turkish from the OAU and from European ones. I was in Egypt 9 times, in different cities and in hotels of different levels. The goal was to take a 3.5-year-old child out for a swim and snooker with his wife, admiring the beautiful underwater world.
Hotel.
Pros:
-Beautiful huge well-groomed territory with a large number of pools. Slides for the little ones and for the big ones.
-The presence of a children's club where you can leave your child under the supervision of good animators + every day an excellent children's disco......
-good rooms, cleaning, miserly do not regret leaving 1-2 dollars on the bed at least every other day
There were four of us, me, my wife, a child and my mother, we were in a family two-room apartment. The room is excellent, located in the middle.
Minuses :
- if settled at the beginning, then walk far to the sea and to the restaurant
Nutrition :
Pros:

- fully corresponds to 5 Egyptian stars, do not confuse with ultra 5 stars... But there are ultra prices. For its level, a normal range and tasty. Grill twice a day, lots of fruit. The waiters are great, they are not rude, they are not stupid, the dishes are always available, excellent coffee, ice cream and cotton candy for free for half a day
- the presence of a children's restaurant and, accordingly, children's food, but from the general table there was a large selection of delicious food for the child
- cakes in a large assortment of different colors and shapes, BUT for ONE taste, edible, but not tasty)) it was possible to single out a couple that I wanted to repeat, but they were rarely taken out. For myself, I put it in a plus)))
Minuses:
- allinclusive provides for locally produced alcohol, and so in this Hotel it was the most unbridled and not tasty. Tried wine, gin, rum. I absolutely do not recommend. In our cheap handicrafts, compared to him, they will seem like elite drinks)) there was more or less beer and that day was good, the day was bad, the day was very bad. So stock up on alcohol in our dutiks. For children, in order to minimize drinking their juices (UPI), I recommend taking with you at least two packs per day with a straw.
Beach
Pros:
- for children, shallow and warm water, at the beginning of the sand, then special shoes are needed, although it will be a maximum of waist-high for a long time, there is where to look like fish
- on the beach there is a booth where fresh sugar cane is crushed in front of you
It costs $ 1.2 a large glass, very tasty and healthy
-the presence of a diving club, I recommend that you learn to dive for beginners do not go on a ship, do not waste extra time and money, but try right there
Minuses:
- the beach is crowded with sunbeds, a lot of people (the hotel is large) and they come from another hotel, if you don’t take it at 7 you will be without a sunbed, and there’s nowhere to lie down... Everything is forced....

- access to the sea via a long pontoon, the swimming area itself is fenced and very small because immediately the depth behind the coral is 20m and after 5m. , which in the end does not give pleasure, and I saw living creatures and coral places in other hotels better..... Because of the strong current, the pontoon was often closed (((((((although normally swimming with flippers would have coped well, but...........No means no
BUT for the sake of 100% getting everything for the child, we believe that the tasks set before the rest are completed....In general, we are satisfied with this
A cozy and clean hotel, but without a child, we would sacrifice some pluses for a beautiful coral reef
For those of you who have read a few budget saving tips:
-it is better to get to the old city by taxi, you need to leave the hotel and
If a miracle happens and there is no taxi, a taxi will stop near you in 2-5 minutes... They ask a lot and they bring you for 50 pounds ($ 5-6)... The hotel will charge you $ 12 and the same way back
-excursions are cheaper to buy either on the beach, or in the evening they will walk to the shopping center....Exit the hotel and to the right for about ten minutes walk, you will find a bunch of shops and excursions, everything is safe and cheaper
