We came across this hotel by accident. We went to the charm reef, but it was closed. When they found out that they were taking us to the Nabq, they were very upset. We would not have chosen it ourselves because of the location. The hotel is very good.
Settled immediately upon arrival at the hotel at 11. We got a room on the second floor with a balcony. To our relatives on the first - they had a terrace and a lawn. The rooms are very large, the bed is very comfortable, there is also a sofa, and if you come with a baby, they will put a crib for you and give you a high chair in the restaurant. The rooms were cleaned every day and even twirled animals out of towels. All plumbing worked. There was always hot water. The room had both a bath and a shower, the toilet had a toilet and a bidet, everything was in perfect condition. The territory of the hotel is very large and green, there are many swimming pools, upon arrival home we found out that we never visited one. Two of them are heated. Lots of cacti, flowering plants, lawns and palm trees. Italian hotel. There were 10-15 pairs of us. I love Italian cuisine, I didn’t have time to get bored in 9 days, lasagna and risotto were every day with new fillings, various salads and vegetables, meat, fish, chicken, turkey, pastries and other desserts, interesting 3. Fruits were bananas, oranges, pomegranates, apples, guava. The coffee in the bars was natural, the cappuccino was wonderful. For lunch and dinner we took white and red wine, it tasted decent dry, not sour. The bar on the beach had beer, it was poured from glass bottles, the beer was light, not dense. In the bar near the central pool there was another 40% alcohol, but you can only drink rum and cola, not so nasty. like everything else, however, like everywhere else in Egypt.
Italians are very emotional people, this is rather a plus, not a minus. All the animation was in Italian, but since they speak not only with their language, but also with their bodies, they taught us how to shoot a bow, explained the principle of playing bocha, taught them how to dance their dances. In general, the Italians are less constrained than our people. We even went to see their theater in the evening. It was so emotional that we understood the essence. There were also evening dances and discos after 0 hours, but we did not live up to it. Although the guys went, they liked it.

The sea at the hotel is not bad, the reef is wonderful, the corals are diverse, there are a lot of fish, but the pontoon was open all day once in 9 days. It almost always storms in the morning, and so they open for 2 hours from 14 to 16. There was no crowd at the entrance to the sea. The Italians went into the water with the animator, swam a little, he showed them everything, told them, they got out and left, there were a maximum of 5 of them left, and our people are more persistent. When the swimming pontoon was closed, we were not upset and swam in masks in the shallows, there are also many living creatures, but there are almost no corals, but we saw lionfish and other fish that were not on the reef.
The Nabq area itself was liked by everyone except the wind. Beautiful street, lots of greenery. You can get to the old city for $ 8-10 (for a taxi) and at any time of the day. Friends went to a wild beach in this area on a local minibus for $ 1 per person. The sea was enough for us in this hotel. In general, the hotel is good, and if you study Italian, then the immersion will be complete, and a few phrases that we all remember from school will be enough to communicate at the reception and in bars.
