Settled for extra. fee in advance. Close to the airport, if you like planes flying overhead, you will be delighted) a couple of times a day you can see the belly of planes flying surprisingly quietly overhead. Bathrooms are clean and new. The linen is clean, sometimes with the hairs of the cleaner, I hope from the hands. One mattress out of 4 was not very good - it was strongly squeezed in the center. The walls in the corridor are smeared with vacationers, either food or dirt, as are the front doors to the room, but the tiles are clean and new. They clean the norms, they don’t wipe the dust, but if you get out of the shower barefoot on the floor, then nothing sticks to your feet.
Dinners both on the sandy and on the reef beach are a sad sadness. Boiled potatoes, cucumber, tomato, bun with cutlet, ketchup, a couple of biscuits from dinner - that's it. It's on the reef. On the sandy, fatty pita bread with minced meat, cucumber, tomato, some kind of incomprehensible fish stew. Everything. For drinks you need to go separately to another place. This is such a lunch for a minute in a 5 * hotel. I advise you to stock up on fruit or dine at the hotel if you have a good appetite.
The reef is not bad, if the first time, it will be something to see. We saw dolphins and giant rays. If you were in the Blue Bay Oasis Reef or Sharm Plaza, then that's about 1/4 of their reefs. Drive to the sand for half an hour, to the reef min. 20. Be sure to wear masks, a fine of $ 250 if the police check. The staff is pleasant, no one clings. The sun loungers, though old, are of good quality, they are washed every evening. The food is cooked like with gloves, which is what we at least saw in the open kitchen. There is a choice of food, not very bad, I would say chic if it were 4 *.

Awfully many mosquitoes, they want $ 6 min for a spray, it's better to bring your own. Show program norms - a man in a skirt, belly dance, dancing and snakes. Once we saw karaoke. Children's animation was not seen. Territory of norms, enough after dinner to take a walk before going to bed. At the 24-hour bar they make cool hot chocolate with brandy, be careful with latte, there is a risk of sitting on the push all day. We got about $170 per person in 4 days, I would give $130. Judging by the reviews about the Hilton and Rixos, we ended up in a good hotel, the only thing that bothered us was the contingent that came in large numbers on burning ones. No manners, no upbringing, no culture.
Very good water park, slides work all but in turn. Another thing I didn’t really like was not a large selection of buses from and to the beach. Either the beach or lunch well, or a taxi. We didn’t check out the sandy one at all - the outskirts of a quiet windless bay, knee-deep water and a sump for ships, but if you are with small children, then you should go there, on the reef beach there is a mini beach with stones, if there is no low tide, you can really take a dip, but not swim, but under a pontoon the depth is already 8-10 meters.
In general, not bad, but I don’t know if I would go there again, but if someone went for the first time, I would advise. We were in Egypt 8 times, but the service is inexorably falling, and the corals are dying off, we will not consider this country for recreation anymore. Internet, by the way, is paid.
