The hotel corresponds to the declared 5 * (according to Egyptian standards, which differ from Turkish and Greek). A large and very well-groomed territory, they clean, water and keep order all the time. You can move around the territory in minicars, it's free and very convenient, especially with children and the elderly.

We are currently resting in Sharm El Sheikh at the Maritime Jolie Ville & Casino hotel. The hotel corresponds to the declared 5 * (according to Egyptian standards, which differ from Turkish and Greek).
A large and very well-groomed territory, they clean, water and keep order all the time. You can move around the territory in minicars, it's free and very convenient, especially with children and the elderly.
Quick and comfortable check-in, if necessary, change the room without question. We were shown a few rooms closer to the sea, but we decided to stay in the Palm Area, as there are freshly renovated rooms.
Room cleaning without pretensions, fast, clean, tidy. Shampoo, shower gel, lotion and conditioner are replenished daily. Change towels, bed linen.
Beach towels are also changed in the room in the evening until 18:00 or in the morning from 8:00. Good fiwi throughout.
The air conditioner in the room works, it is a little noisy, but you get used to it after 15 minutes, after it has accelerated, it becomes quieter, while it does not smell and does not flow.
About food, special thanks to the chef, pastries and desserts are class, fish is always very tasty, pasta of all kinds and filling is a special art (Italian chef, that says it all! )!!!
Very friendly staff in the restaurant and other areas. What can not be said about the bartenders on the beach and by the pool. It seems that they are specially trained to ignore and do not what you ask. I categorically do not recommend draft beer and local drinks, it is easier and safer to use a paid bar and drinks from a supermarket.
Drinking water is everywhere, in individual small bottles, always cool ...The all-inclusive system is a waste of money that can be spent on buying high-quality alcohol in duty free.
The sea is gorgeous, clean and gentle.
On the territory of the beach, a small reef is fenced, small beautiful fish swim to it.
Masks, snorkels and other equipment are available everywhere around, $ 7-15 and complete happiness is guaranteed!
Excursions and massages are best taken from locals on the beach, maybe through a tour operator, everything is the same, but 2 times more expensive. And it’s not a fact that there will be some kind of insurance, I wasn’t on the lists at all during the dive.
In the spa, I did 4 massage sessions with Madyakh, she will work through all the pain points and clamps, she understands Russian and English (Russians call her Nadya), she really liked it. First, they gave a masseuse who simply smeared with oil and rubbed it, I immediately told Fabio, who sells massages on the beach, and they immediately fixed everything, replaced it with another masseur, and this massage was free.
Animators, this is a separate issue, there is so much energy and positiveness in them, while everything is not very intrusive and fun! Just great guys!
I strongly recommend the hotel, and everyone has a great mood and rest!

Overall good, but there are some downsides. So, the hotel is located in the center of Naama Bay. Check in was quick, we arrived at 2:30 pm. They gave the room indicated on the tour (for a good room for three at the reception, we presented $ 20, but we did not feel the advantages in the room, or other rooms were worse).

Our room had torn curtains. Cleaning for $1 consisted of making the bed. Towels are changed provided that they are on the floor, but I can’t say anything if they were changed or hung back). They ran to the reception for toilet paper, they did not add it during cleaning.
Beach towels are changed in the morning at the room cleaner, that is, if you did not find him, you will be with yesterday's beach towel all day.
Hotel slippers - for a fee)).
The territory of the hotel is divided into 3 parts: the farthest one through the active carriageway. There, apart from the pool (probably without heating), they saw nothing else.
2nd part - from the reception to the right through the not so active road of the Palm Area rooms.
Due to the proximity to Naama, music is heard until 2 am.
And the bulk of the rooms are bungalows from the reception towards the sea.
The hotel area for the center of Naam is large.
Cons: the hotel has one main restaurant (Grill and Italian restaurants can be accessed by appointment once a week) and one small heated pool (140 cm).
Therefore, the main restaurant and the pool are constantly looking for free places (.
The food in the main restaurant is good. Every day a variety of chicken, beef and fish dishes (except for standard breakfasts). Waiters bring alcoholic drinks upon request.
Minus the restaurant: the restaurant staff at the distribution of food must be begged, they impose a minimum. The absence of flycatchers throughout the territory, including in the restaurant.
The beach is good - wide, it is possible not to sit on each other's heads.
The entrance to the sea is gentle, the sand is not here for those who like to watch the underwater world, it is very scarce and small.
On the beach there are paid and free bars where alcohol is poured.
Snacks on the beach did not go, not tasty.
Minus: no toilets either by the pool or on the beach. There are broken sun loungers.
Animation:
Daily exercises, fitness sticks, water aerobics, darts, zumba and yoga. In the evening, a children's disco and show programs, planned, without the participation of tourists (karaoke, Miss (Mr. ) Hotel, no contests were held).
Mats for exercise and yoga are not issued.
Animation has 2 welcome songs: Calimenio and Nosa, they got fed up with the rest, I would like to diversify the dance repertoire for animation. Katya and Mahmoud from the animation are more active than the others.

Hi, forum users!
Visited a couple of days ago with my wife Maritim Jolie Ville Resort & Casino in Sharm, now more:
The airport
Probably the strongest impression. Upon arrival, no complaints, everything is standard. But the departure, it's just w ...pas - an incomprehensible small terminal, huge queues, a triple personal shmon with the removal of shoes (and stand on ceremony, since the money has already been left? ). And dutik is a song - whiskey starts from 200 Baku, beer or burger from 9, a bottle of dry wine (187 ml. ) - $ 14 (specially saved for the photo), small juice 250 ml - 5 bucks. Further tears interfere with writing, but I can.
We arrived in Sharm early, at about 7.30 in the morning we were at the hotel. The staff at the reception are friendly and helpful. We booked a room in the Sports Area section, the most distant from the beach and the restaurant (10-15 minutes walk to them, whoever walks). Immediately, without waiting for the required 14.00, a room was offered there.
When asked about moving closer to the above important objects, the smiling boy said $ 40 / night for two (the tour was for a week - a total of 280 bucks)). Having seen (and received))) a hundred, he immediately assigned us to a room 50 meters from the pool and 70 from the restaurant. They took us with things on an electric machine. The feeling that they still cheated, because the load of guests is 60-70%))).
Housing and Internet
The entire number of rooms is two-storey cottages with 3-4 rooms in each. We got a room on the ground floor, spacious, 30 square meters. Each room has 2 separate exits to different terraces. On one of the terraces there is a minimum set of furniture - 2 chairs and a table. The room has everything you need (air conditioning, safe, large TV with 30 channels, mini fridge with water, 2 armchairs, coffee table, spacious bed, wardrobe). Furniture, of course, needs updating, but everything is working. There is a tea set (small kettle, instant tea/coffee, sugar/milk), reported.
The bathroom has a shower, toilet / bidet, a set of cosmetics (replenished as you use). At first, for some reason, they saved toilet paper for us, but then they suffered))). Cleaning in the room for C grade, at a minimum, did not bother us. The Internet is weak - it pulls at the reception, you need to catch it around the territory.
Restaurant and beach
Meals take place in the spacious Orangerie restaurant near the pool. Several fairly large halls around the perimeter of the distribution area. Enough space, no lines. Employees give out something, you impose something yourself. The menu is quite varied - for breakfast 2 types of milk porridge, sliced cheeses, sausages, a lot of pastries, for lunch 2-3 types of meat, always fish, 2 types of soups (delicious), salads, pastas, seafood. Dinner is also with soups, grills and barbecues with poultry, fish / meat are set up on the street behind the restaurant. At lunch/dinner, alcohol is brought to order by the waiters.
Access to the beach right behind the restaurant, through the so-called promenade, about 50 meters away.
The beach is sandy, the sunset is gentle, sunbeds are good, mattresses. Towels are brought with you (towels are in the rooms upon check-in). The beach has a pier with a floating pontoon from which you can dive. There are many fish, some of which are dangerous. We, given the season, did not swim (we sat in the heated pool), although there were many swimming guests. Beach in the bay, windless. On the beach there are 2 bars with drinks (paid (tried, not worth it and all), as well as a snack point closer to dinner (fries, burgers). An animation team works on the beach, good funny guys (Dasha, Mukhamed, etc. ), set standard entertainment (exercise, aqua aerobics, darts, competitions), animations are trying)).
Near the main heated pool there is a spa. Such ... )) After long and convincing)) persuasion, we decided to give my wife a course of facial rejuvenation 5 sessions + my manicure / pedicure (by the way, the first in my life and did not impress))), gave 100 bucks (apparently affected by stress after the flight)) ).
During the rest of the rest, this Amy caught us on the beach / pool and offered to buy magic collagen)) (the price started at 140 bucks for 4 incomprehensible beakers, in the end she gave it away for 70))). Decide for yourself.
Infrastructure
The hotel is located in the Naama Bay area. From the hotel there is direct access to one of the streets where there are a lot of shops, restaurants, cafes, pharmacies. Since it was getting dark early (around 17.00), from 4 pm there is an evening/night life. Once again, we were pleasantly surprised by the prices in pharmacies for medicines - the fact that we have 3-4 dollars, there for a dollar (tablets "1.2, 3, ", cold sprays, cough syrups, joint and heart drugs) and unpleasantly surprised fruit merchants, in particular, mangoes - you only need to choose yourself and personally control the packaging (one was almost fed with rot, which he packed, for this he had to return from the hotel).
There are many points with seafood - they cook both on the spot and to take it to the hotel (be careful - they will slip frozen, without meat structure with you (((. The airport is not far from the hotel, but it depends on the number of passing passengers.
By the way, local traders have a new feature, now they do not invite you to come in to see / buy, but simply ask you to write a review that he is a cool guy. Bitch, came in, wrote, left 70 bucks for oils, left ... )). Now at least there will be no problems with perfume for several years)).
Conclusion: The hotel is very worthy, I would like to return, taking into account the above points.

My husband and I stayed at this hotel for the third time. Impressions are the best. The beach is wonderful, the territory is beautiful, the rooms are clean and regularly cleaned, the food is quite consistent with various tastes both in appearance and in the quality of preparation. Every evening themed dinner: European, Mexican, Italian cuisine, seafood, grill. Attentive attitude of the staff. The first visit coincided with my husband's birthday and they brought a cake and a greeting card to the room, on the second visit a bottle of wine and fruit were waiting for us on the table in the room, and this time there was fruit on the table. Nice.
For accommodation, we choose a palm area, which is a little further from the sea (400-500 m), because we like to walk along the picturesque alleys, admire their beauty. I don't know how it is at other times of the year, but during our stay in December, there were enough sunbeds and places in the restaurant. Unlike previous visits, the food was put on the plates by the restaurant staff, little by little. You could immediately ask for more, you could come up to take more. A wide variety of dishes offered to try something different. Dairy products, in particular yoghurts, are very tasty, baked vegetables were wonderfully cooked - eggplant, asparagus, zucchini and, of course, meat dishes from chicken, beef, lamb. Plenty of fresh baked goods.
The territory of the palm zone borders on the central avenue of Naama Bay. On the one hand, this is a plus - there was a place to walk in the evening, buy mangoes, oriental sweets and souvenirs, and on the other hand, the music from the establishments thundered almost until the morning and even with the windows closed, fall asleep in the building closest to the avenue, which we got this time was problematic at first. This is perhaps the only negative. We were lucky with the weather: there were no strong winds, the air temperature was 25-26 degrees, the water temperature was 24. We were satisfied with our rest.

The accommodation is great. After a sleepless night, the transfer took us to the hotel at 9:45, and already at 10 we were taken to the room by electric car. Our room was ready for sportsaria, at the reception they offered a palm with a surcharge, we refused. The territory is well-groomed, clean, green with fountains along the alley, it is not difficult for us to walk 15 minutes in the morning coolness to the sea.

Our room was ready for sportsaria, at the reception they offered a palm with a surcharge, we refused. The territory is well-groomed, clean, green with fountains along the alley, it is not difficult for us to walk 15 minutes in the morning coolness to the sea. The beach is sandy, no corals are needed, the remains of a dead reef at a depth of 1-1.5 m surrounded by buoys abound with fish, so even children or those who cannot swim can see pilots, surgeons, parrots, angels, and Picasso fish, and mullet. . . of course it's far from the reef, but you can get an idea of the fish. The rooms (I'm talking about sports arias) are old, but air conditioning, TV, refrigerator and safe - everything worked. Too bad you have to bring towels to the beach. There was a kettle in the room, the water was changed. Tea, coffee was added... norms.
The food is good. Breakfast is standard. Lunch is good. For dinner on the street, a whole battery of grills, barbecues. Of the nutritional deficiencies, 70 percent of fish dishes are pangasius. They didn’t succeed with fish... the tuna was dried out, the scales were not removed... once there was a very good fish pie, only when they went for an additive in the filling, the same pangasius. Seafood for dinner was almost every day. Alcohol - no, the rest of the drinks are 3+... In general, if we discard the nuances with fish, then the hotel is good. This is certainly not Stella di mare and not Movenpick... But in a worthy place of budget fives. Service is good, staff is friendly.
The location is in the very center of Naama Bay. If someone wants a reef, we went to Novotel and Movenpick, and there the whole range of fish will come to feed (it was taught by tourists, a meter-long Napoleon). We had a weekly promotional tour costing us $1.000, which suited us. Come. Recommended.

The check in went well, very friendly staff at the reception. Despite the fact that the check-in was supposed to be from 14.00, and we arrived at the hotel at 10.30, we were immediately given a room. We rested on the 3rd line (Sport Area) to the sea, the distance to the restaurant is 10 minutes to go, although there is a transfer, but it’s quite difficult to wait for the car.

We rested on the 3rd line (Sport Area) to the sea, the distance to the restaurant is 10 minutes to go, although there is a transfer, but it’s quite difficult to wait for the car. The shoes were torn, they called the car to the pool, they said they would not take them to the room, only to the reception, since large cars do not go to the 3rd line, and there are no small ones in place. At the request of the driver of this car to call a small car from the reception, they answered "walk barefoot, there is a normal road", you need to call the car from the number in 20 minutes, once the car was not waited. The dining room has excellent staff, everyone is friendly and welcoming, the food is varied, the only thing is that the breakfasts are monotonous and not enough fruit. A day later there were delicious seafood dishes and a lot of meat dishes (chicken, duck, beef, lamb) in different types of cooking. On the beach of the hotel, animators entertain, sports and aqua aerobics in the morning, shows and clubs in the evening. The territory is large and well-groomed, very beautiful. Wi-Fi is good only at the reception and in the room. Overall, we enjoyed our stay at this hotel : )

We rested in early April with a 1.5 year old granddaughter. We liked. Wonderful landscaped area, friendly staff. Checked in immediately, even though we were at the hotel in the morning.

Wonderful coast, warm sea, just right for children.
The room is large with a recent renovation, the furniture is of course old, but nothing is falling apart.
The food, unfortunately, is not adapted for babies under 3 years old.
It seems to me that if the hotel positions itself as a family hotel, then it is worth considering. From disposable tableware, only glasses (paper), this is normal in the current situation. From food, we always had enough of everything, a variety of meat and vegetables, side dishes. Always coffee, coffee machine. Fruit is out of season, but there were citrus fruits and melons.
And again, little entertainment for the little ones.
Wonderful coast, warm sea, just right for children.

For two years, the hotel has simply slid down nowhere. In the morning, eat eggs and oatmeal in some water, for lunch, a choice of either tough beef or some kind of smelly fish, and rice. Dinner is even worse. Plastic dishes, at lunch it is impossible to find a place to eat, they offer to eat under the sun!! ! At lunch! During the day the water is turned off at lunchtime.

During the day the water is turned off at lunchtime.
Everything is closed, you can’t wash your feet after the sea, the locker rooms are closed.
No coffee in the morning! Only tea. In the evening they do not pour wine at the bar, only beer, wine only in the dining room.
In the dining room, more than one disposable glass of wine is not given in hand.
In short, save on everything you can.
The hotel became like a concentration camp.

Actually, my review will be precisely from the point of view of a family vacation with two children. Feedback is negative. Overall though the hotel is good. Let it be spoiled by the crisis and covid. So let's start from the beginning. We arrived in the afternoon of March 28 with a good mood and a feeling of relaxation.

Actually, my review will be precisely from the point of view of a family vacation with two children. Feedback is negative. Overall though the hotel is good. Let it be spoiled by the crisis and covid.
So let's start from the beginning. We arrived in the afternoon of March 28 with a good mood and a feeling of relaxation. In this high spirits, we got to the reception, received the keys to the room and went by electric bus to see what they offered us. Let me remind you - we are four people, two adults, and two children of different sexes. What was our amazement when it turned out that in the room offered to us... 2 single (!!! ) beds, made up side by side. To say that I was amazed is to say nothing. To my dumb question to the employee - what's the matter? - He began to frantically call the reception.
And then it began... Let's go to the reception. There, a hotel worker began to tell me some kind of game that my tour for 2 adults + 2 children is actually a tour for 2 adults, and there are no places for 2 children, sir. And if I want the children to somehow exist in the room, then I would have to pay extra 10 bucks for each child per day. Total 200 bucks to those 2100 that I have already paid for the Coral Travel tour. Some indistinct stories that the tour operator knows about the problem that the hotel DOES NOT have rooms more than 2 people. In the end, the pan deigned to provide one extra single bed to those 2 that we already had in the room. Oh yes, doing me a favor and putting it on at no extra charge. After all, it turns out that I have a tour for 2. Not 4.
And he suggested the next day to resolve the issue in the morning with a representative of Coral.
Okay, in the morning so in the morning. We'll get some sleep.
And then in the morning His Majesty the representative of Coral Travel appears. And immediately begins to be rude on the topic that "I do not work with representatives from the family, bring all family members immediately, otherwise I will leave and your insurance will not be activated. " Some kind of rhetoric at the level of a school teacher in the village, struggling with the local shkolota. Hmm, sadness.
Anyway. Brought the whole family. And then stories began about how we urgently need to order entertainment from him. And not a word about insurance. And, most importantly, after such an approach, this miracle did not understand why we did not want to order anything from him. Well, it happens.
I approached the representative of Coral to talk about the problem. What do you think the answer was? Don't guess. "Write an explanatory note on the back of the tour printout. " Yes Yes. I should. To him. Write. Explanatory. Where is the bottom? I don’t know if it was already the bottom... To the question - why the explanatory note, the guy answered - I will discuss it with the hotel staff. I focus on the fact that the conversation took place at the reception. To my question - "why an explanatory note, here you are, here I am, here are the hotel workers - let's go and just talk" - nit, you need an explanatory note, come at 8 pm, everything will be fine.
Hmm. Well. Here's an explanatory note for you, beard.
I arrive at 8 pm. The result is this. The hotel has only double rooms. He can't help me. To the question - how did Coral Travel sell us a tour for 4 in a 2-bed room - the guy began to tell some kind of game that this was not Coral, this was a travel agent. Like I-not-I, the hut is not mine. Chat with an agent.
Okay, not a problem. I'm recruiting a travel agent, voicing the situation. To which the travel agent is also at a loss - what does he have to do with it if the Coral booking system issued such a tour for 4, despite the fact that the hotel IN PRINCIPLE does not have not only 4-bed rooms, but even 3-bed ones. Asked to speak with a Coral representative. At the time of the telephone conversation, the representative of Coral suddenly began to issue phrases from the series "I, as a representative of the hotel, want to declare that the hotel has such rules. " Here it is already interesting. So who are you? What are you, Mohammed? Representative of Coral? Hotel representative? A representative of the free people of Egypt? Rave. . .
The conversation ended as expected.
We agreed with the travel agent that he would call Coral in the morning and try to clarify something.
The result of this appeal was that we were offered to move to a house closer to the sea. Zets, as they say, all. The hotel does not have 3 or 4 bed rooms. We can't help.
Atlichna.
I leave the question to the public's judgment - who is the bad person here, that is, the radish? Coral? Hotel? Travel agent? In my opinion, the radish here is the side that makes it possible to book a tour in a hotel with 2-bed rooms, assuming the accommodation of 4 people in such a room. Fu Fu Fu.
Well. Let's end with disappointment from the placement. I will just note this. It may be normal for someone to rest 10 days in the same room with two children. For us, this is not the norm. We live at home in a two-room apartment. And go on vacation to two single beds, made up side by side... In general, as I wrote above - fufufu.
Let's move on to the next points. Nutrition. Food is the moment that the hotel needs to be mined exclusively with a fight. There are few tables. There are many people. Dishes 8 days out of 10 were DISPOSABLE PLASTIC!! ! Omg. . . 5 star hotel. . .
To the maximum, the buffet is hidden from the hungry tourist. For every little thing there is a queue. For example, to get such a delicacy as an omelet for breakfast, you had to stand in line of 10-15 people (!!! ).
By assortment. For all 10 days practically without changes. Fantastically cooked veal, excellent (without exaggeration) chicken. From the side dish - mostly rice, sometimes mashed potatoes.
Oh, yes, a couple more words for the amazing redneck. Since it’s impossible to pick the same tomatoes yourself, you have to ask the guy behind the counter. The guy behind the counter will set aside 3 whole pieces for you and - go for a walk. You have to ask for more. Well Gut, here's another 1-2. That yoperny theater. Well, why, having arrived at an all-inclusive, should I beg for the minimum decent portions for each dish? Excellent feta cheese. He, in my opinion, is wonderful for all Egyptian hotels. And yes, we love him. Silent, but please treat us with feta? Please, says the guy behind the counter, handing out, at best, a matchbox-sized piece of feta. No understatement. And at worst - scraping the bottom of the tray with a trowel and smearing it along the edge of the plate. At the level of an excellent plasterer.
In general, as a reader who has read up to these lines, he probably already understood - yes, if you want to eat, you must suffer.
Beach. The beach was good. But coming ashore at 9, there were often no free sunbeds. At all. The wind on the coast for the first week was terrible. I think thanks to this wind, the whole family has earned bronchitis in varying degrees of development. Warm water. The entrance to the water is excellent. With the wind, I suspect we were just unlucky. But folks, be aware. A fundamentally windless bay is not so windless.
Territory. The territory is excellent. Palm trees, beautiful bushes, many flowers. Greenery. The beauty. True, it's beautiful. Some fountains on site.
Swimming pool. He is alone. And this is sadness. Of course, no heating.
Snacks. The quality is just terrible. Hot dogs with disgusting sausages, "hamburgers" with a disgusting "patty". Of all the snacks, only French fries could be eaten. And - of course - how can it be without a battle for the harvest... Oh, sorry, for food. But, unlike the canteen, there was already a line for 30 people. One line for disgusting hot dogs / "hamburgers", the second - for ice cream, which for some reason quickly ended. But there are also 20-30 people here.
Animation. Just assume it doesn't exist. It will be easier this way : ) Especially if we talk about children's animation.
Spa. Good massages. Really good ones. True, when they say that they can do a whole range of massages, in fact, it seems that every masseur can only play one instrument : )
Staff. Mostly very friendly. It was nice to chat with one of the chefs. Smiling guard. Nice bartenders. Some of the reception workers are either tired from the working day, or tired of life.
My resume. If you want to comfortably relax with two children, you do not need to go to this hotel. Our last visit was at the Albatros Aqua Blue Hotel. Head up. Let four. Nutrition is difficult to compare - perhaps the crisis hit them too. But. Family rooms. Tons of pools. Diverse food. Possibility to eat at almost any time of the day.
If you go together - Maritim will be good enough.

I decided to write a review after reading previous reviews, because like everything else in this world, they depend on a person’s life position, his upbringing, life experience, mood, weather, etc. We love this hotel and rested in it 3 times, and we will definitely come again. We met more than one family who, like us, rest here more than once.

I decided to write a review after reading previous reviews, because like everything else in this world, they depend on a person’s life position, his upbringing, life experience, mood, weather, etc.
We love this hotel and rested in it 3 times, and we will definitely come again. We met more than one family who, like us, rest here more than once.
About the weather: it does not depend on the hotel or the tour operator ...Once we were at the beginning of March and it was very warm and the sea was quite comfortable even for a 5-year-old, there was no wind at all. Then we were in May - it was unbearably hot because of the wind from the desert, but as soon as the wind blew from the sea - it became just wonderful. This time, a polar cyclone, anomalous for this time of year, descended, and even tourists walked for a couple of days in jackets. But after all, we also have -32 in winter, and sometimes +15, and in May it can snow.
If the bay is windless, this does not mean that the wind as a natural phenomenon is not possible there at all (I'm talking about a recent review here). Therefore, do not read reviews about the weather, the maximum forecast for a month will help you, and that is not a fact!
Immutable parameters:
+ chic sandy beach, sandy bottom, shallow for a long time (and for some this is a minus by the way; ) ), neither adults nor children need special shoes either on the beach or in the sea
+ there is a small coral in shallow water, where even my 4-year-old child, who cannot swim yet, could see beautiful diverse fish
+ a stunning park in which the hotel is located, green, blooming, well-groomed, even in the heat in May I rolled a sleeping baby in the shade
+ Italian chef. And yes, that's a big plus. We are sensitive to poor quality food. Even picky children ate a lot and never said that it was not tasty.
My husband took with him a lot of packs of activated charcoal and everything possible, he didn’t use anything once, he didn’t even have heartburn (sorry for the details)
From stable:
Rooms. The rooms are different. The number of rooms is divided into zones:
1) Sport - the farthest, across the road from the main hotel, with small children in general, I would be scared to cross the main highway with heavy traffic
2) Palm - a little away, but closer to the main territory, no need to cross the road
3) Front - the main part of the hotel, the first line
4) Sea view - right next to the beach and somehow slightly away from the main territory (for me personally, this seemed like a minus)
Cleaning and change of linen and towels every other day. They pick up very high quality. The linen is excellent (no holes or stains), the towels are not shabby, white, with the hotel logo.
The rooms in the Sport and Palm are very new, the freshest renovation, who lived there, admired how new everything was.
There is a Jolie Suite - it's bigger. There are two recreation areas, two TVs, one bathroom. There are Family rooms - these are two rooms, one has a large double bed, the second has two single beds. There are two bathrooms, BUT there is only one shower in one bathroom, in the nursery there is only a toilet and a washbasin.
The price for a standard room in different areas is different!!!
People! See what you are buying from the tour operator. And then it’s so strange to read the reviews that they arrived at 4m, and bought ONE standard room for 2, and naively expected that they would be accommodated for free in Family. Are you seriously?!? ! Yes, if you still unsuccessfully bought the tour, then if you have a room, you can OFFICIALLY pay extra at the reception (you will be given a check for improvement, not to be confused with a tip). Yes, in previous years, tourists were settled immediately in Front without additional payment, this was when Sport and Palm were completely closed for repairs (it is not clear why tour operators sold them) or there was a small load on the hotel (usually in winter).
But with the maximum load of the hotel this time, we were immediately refused to improve the room. They offered to come tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. We wanted to check in and relax once, as a result they saw that we were regular guests and asked to wait, explained that the hotel was fully loaded. The manager talked to someone on the phone, and then offered a suite. We were delighted, paid extra (officially, paid by card) and settled in the Jolie Suite in the Front zone.
From variable:
Tour price.
In 2021, we traveled at a price 2.5-3 times cheaper than the regular price. Why is it important. The hotel cannot save on the beach or the territory, so the savings should be on something else:
- in the rooms there were no bathrobes, no disposable slippers, no bath accessories (shampoo, body cream, etc. ), which was on previous visits. It didn’t bother us personally, we always carry our own.
- in the room in the mini-bar only a bottle of water (fresh 1.5 l was brought daily)
- The choice of fruits is very modest (melon in the morning, oranges or tangerines, apples, dates, guava in the afternoon and evening).
- coffee powder. but here I’ll honestly say that I don’t remember at all how it was before, somehow the coffee didn’t stick in my memory
- Variety of food. In previous years (with expensive tours) the food was much more varied: there were days of Japanese cuisine (sushi, etc. ), Italian cuisine (lasagna, pizza, etc. ), Egyptian cuisine ...and all restaurants were open. In 2021, the menu was quite the same for two weeks. Only the main restaurant worked (by the way, this was warned on the hotel website, I was ready for this already when buying a tour) and a restaurant on the beach, which offered exactly the same menu as the main restaurant. The food was ENOUGH, everything was VERY TASTY! There was never such a thing that something ended and there was no fish or beef until the end of the dinner (not counting the baklava - it ended instantly).
Contingent.
The impression of the rest also depends on who is resting nearby. In 2018, there were a maximum of 10% of Russian speakers (Ukrainians, Belarusians, Kazakhs, Armenians, Russians), the remaining 90% are foreigners (the bulk are WEALTH (this is important, who understands what I mean: )) Arabs with wives and children, French families, Spaniards, Balts, Belgians, some young people - mostly Arabs). In 2019, no more than 20% Russian speakers and 80% foreigners rested. But in 2021 - 99% Russian-speaking and even cheap tours ...if you explain to someone, write in the comments; )
Animators.
They are there! And even the first week there were mini-discos and everything more or less familiar, BUT!
Constraints, cons and pros due to COVID:
In two weeks, we personally saw two serious checks there + the hotel management constantly checks the situation, we personally saw the general manager several times with checks of different locations, in 2021 we saw her live for the first time, before that only in the pictures (it’s clear that they don’t need cases there diseases and closure due to this hotel). After one week of rest, after one of the serious external checks:
1) Banned evening shows, competitions, mini-disco (this is in all hotels, not just this one). We walked along the promenade along all the hotels, and all of them abruptly stopped their evening entertainment - maximum music - on the same day. Animators entertained adults and children only during the day on the beach. Various competitions, dancing, exercises, aerobics.
2) The cabanas on the beach were closed.
3) Showers and foot taps were closed on the beach. Inconvenient, but it does not depend on the hotel
4) Closed the playground.
But our “uniques” climbed over the fence to swing the child on the swing (no comment).
5) Removed 30% of the sunbeds near the pool and some more sunbeds were marked with a request not to occupy, but to keep a distance.
6) They banned appliances in the restaurant. There were so beautiful with the logo of the hotel. I had to replace them with disposable ones. But they tried, everything was given out in bags (a napkin, cutlery, salt, pepper). But this is also not their whim, but the requirements due to quarantine measures.
7) There were hand sanitizer dispensers on each table.
8) If at first in the restaurant you could partially take something on your own (fruits, sweets, buns), and the rest was passed through the glass by the cooks, then in the end even a piece of bread had to be asked for by the cook. Because of this, service time slightly increased and queues formed. But if you come not to the beginning, but somewhere in an hour - there were no queues.
9) All meals are possible on the street (as for me it was a huge plus).
Additionally, it was possible to have lunch and dinner right on the beach overlooking the sea (the menu is absolutely the same as in the main restaurant). And to our surprise, for some reason, everyone burst into the main restaurant, and the beach was almost empty. But even in the main restaurant SIX zones, the tables are arranged with a distance, when it was cold, we always found a place there.
10) Snacks and ice cream were by the pool for the first week, then moved to a restaurant on the beach. There are dispensers with antiseptics on every building, and they are there all the time. All staff are wearing masks and disposable gloves, especially in the restaurant, and they wear masks correctly!! ! The food is closed not only vertically, but also partially horizontally, the so-called "fool-proof".
In general, in my opinion, catching COVID in a hotel is not so easy, you can, of course, if you rudely ignore elementary rules (do not keep your distance, for example, run to the opening of a restaurant and then crowd in line breathing into each other's necks and stepping on each other's heels, like as if it would be faster from this - see the paragraph "Contingent" ; ) ). But at the airport or plane, where the mask regime is not strictly observed, the chances are growing exponentially. Especially considering that our people everywhere ignore the markings asking you to keep a distance of 2 meters, and constantly try to get around you if you keep it (this is also the "Contingent" variable)
In general, the most beautiful hotel for both family and youth recreation (all kinds of discos and clubs are next to the hotel. In 2021, many were closed). Decide what is important to you and look at reviews specifically for these parameters.
Can you go to a hotel where there is no beach, but a pontoon of 800 meters; )
And we will definitely come back here!
We love this hotel and rested in it 3 times, and we will definitely come again. We met more than one family who, like us, rest here more than once.

+ a stunning park in which the hotel is located, green, blooming, well-groomed, even in the heat in May I rolled a sleeping baby in the shade
+ Italian chef. And yes, that's a big plus. We are sensitive to poor quality food. Even picky children ate a lot and never said that it was not tasty.
My husband took with him a lot of packs of activated charcoal and everything possible, he didn’t use anything once, he didn’t even have heartburn (sorry for the details)
From stable:
Rooms. The rooms are different. The number of rooms is divided into zones:
1) Sport - the farthest, across the road from the main hotel, with small children in general, I would be scared to cross the main highway with heavy traffic
2) Palm - a little away, but closer to the main territory, no need to cross the road
3) Front - the main part of the hotel, the first line
4) Sea view - right next to the beach and somehow slightly away from the main territory (for me personally, this seemed like a minus)
Cleaning and change of linen and towels every other day. They pick up very high quality. The linen is excellent (no holes or stains), the towels are not shabby, white, with the hotel logo.
The rooms in the Sport and Palm are very new, the freshest renovation, who lived there, admired how new everything was.
There is a Jolie Suite - it's bigger. There are two recreation areas, two TVs, one bathroom. There are Family rooms - these are two rooms, one has a large double bed, the second has two single beds. There are two bathrooms, BUT there is only one shower in one bathroom, in the nursery there is only a toilet and a washbasin.
The price for a standard room in different areas is different!!!
People! See what you are buying from the tour operator. And then it’s so strange to read the reviews that they arrived at 4m, and bought ONE standard room for 2, and naively expected that they would be accommodated for free in Family. Are you seriously?!? ! Yes, if you still unsuccessfully bought the tour, then if you have a room, you can OFFICIALLY pay extra at the reception (you will be given a check for improvement, not to be confused with a tip). Yes, in previous years, tourists were settled immediately in Front without additional payment, this was when Sport and Palm were completely closed for repairs (it is not clear why tour operators sold them) or there was a small load on the hotel (usually in winter).
But with the maximum load of the hotel this time, we were immediately refused to improve the room. They offered to come tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. We wanted to check in and relax once, as a result they saw that we were regular guests and asked to wait, explained that the hotel was fully loaded. The manager talked to someone on the phone, and then offered a suite. We were delighted, paid extra (officially, paid by card) and settled in the Jolie Suite in the Front zone.
From variable:
Tour price.
In 2021, we traveled at a price 2.5-3 times cheaper than the regular price. Why is it important. The hotel cannot save on the beach or the territory, so the savings should be on something else:
- in the rooms there were no bathrobes, no disposable slippers, no bath accessories (shampoo, body cream, etc. ), which was on previous visits. It didn’t bother us personally, we always carry our own.
- in the room in the mini-bar only a bottle of water (fresh 1.5 l was brought daily)
- The choice of fruits is very modest (melon in the morning, oranges or tangerines, apples, dates, guava in the afternoon and evening).
- coffee powder. but here I’ll honestly say that I don’t remember at all how it was before, somehow the coffee didn’t stick in my memory
- Variety of food. In previous years (with expensive tours) the food was much more varied: there were days of Japanese cuisine (sushi, etc. ), Italian cuisine (lasagna, pizza, etc. ), Egyptian cuisine ...and all restaurants were open. In 2021, the menu was quite the same for two weeks. Only the main restaurant worked (by the way, this was warned on the hotel website, I was ready for this already when buying a tour) and a restaurant on the beach, which offered exactly the same menu as the main restaurant. The food was ENOUGH, everything was VERY TASTY! There was never such a thing that something ended and there was no fish or beef until the end of the dinner (not counting the baklava - it ended instantly).
Contingent.
The impression of the rest also depends on who is resting nearby. In 2018, there were a maximum of 10% of Russian speakers (Ukrainians, Belarusians, Kazakhs, Armenians, Russians), the remaining 90% are foreigners (the bulk are WEALTH (this is important, who understands what I mean: )) Arabs with wives and children, French families, Spaniards, Balts, Belgians, some young people - mostly Arabs). In 2019, no more than 20% Russian speakers and 80% foreigners rested. But in 2021 - 99% Russian-speaking and even cheap tours ...if you explain to someone, write in the comments; )
Animators.
They are there! And even the first week there were mini-discos and everything more or less familiar, BUT!
Constraints, cons and pros due to COVID:
In two weeks, we personally saw two serious checks there + the hotel management constantly checks the situation, we personally saw the general manager several times with checks of different locations, in 2021 we saw her live for the first time, before that only in the pictures (it’s clear that they don’t need cases there diseases and closure due to this hotel). After one week of rest, after one of the serious external checks:
1) Banned evening shows, competitions, mini-disco (this is in all hotels, not just this one). We walked along the promenade along all the hotels, and all of them abruptly stopped their evening entertainment - maximum music - on the same day. Animators entertained adults and children only during the day on the beach. Various competitions, dancing, exercises, aerobics.
2) The cabanas on the beach were closed.
3) Showers and foot taps were closed on the beach. Inconvenient, but it does not depend on the hotel
4) Closed the playground.
But our “uniques” climbed over the fence to swing the child on the swing (no comment).
5) Removed 30% of the sunbeds near the pool and some more sunbeds were marked with a request not to occupy, but to keep a distance.
6) They banned appliances in the restaurant. There were so beautiful with the logo of the hotel. I had to replace them with disposable ones. But they tried, everything was given out in bags (a napkin, cutlery, salt, pepper). But this is also not their whim, but the requirements due to quarantine measures.
7) There were hand sanitizer dispensers on each table.
8) If at first in the restaurant you could partially take something on your own (fruits, sweets, buns), and the rest was passed through the glass by the cooks, then in the end even a piece of bread had to be asked for by the cook. Because of this, service time slightly increased and queues formed. But if you come not to the beginning, but somewhere in an hour - there were no queues.
9) All meals are possible on the street (as for me it was a huge plus).
Additionally, it was possible to have lunch and dinner right on the beach overlooking the sea (the menu is absolutely the same as in the main restaurant). And to our surprise, for some reason, everyone burst into the main restaurant, and the beach was almost empty. But even in the main restaurant SIX zones, the tables are arranged with a distance, when it was cold, we always found a place there.
10) Snacks and ice cream were by the pool for the first week, then moved to a restaurant on the beach. There are dispensers with antiseptics on every building, and they are there all the time. All staff are wearing masks and disposable gloves, especially in the restaurant, and they wear masks correctly!! ! The food is closed not only vertically, but also partially horizontally, the so-called "fool-proof".
In general, in my opinion, catching COVID in a hotel is not so easy, you can, of course, if you rudely ignore elementary rules (do not keep your distance, for example, run to the opening of a restaurant and then crowd in line breathing into each other's necks and stepping on each other's heels, like as if it would be faster from this - see the paragraph "Contingent" ; ) ). But at the airport or plane, where the mask regime is not strictly observed, the chances are growing exponentially. Especially considering that our people everywhere ignore the markings asking you to keep a distance of 2 meters, and constantly try to get around you if you keep it (this is also the "Contingent" variable)
In general, the most beautiful hotel for both family and youth recreation (all kinds of discos and clubs are next to the hotel. In 2021, many were closed). Decide what is important to you and look at reviews specifically for these parameters.
Can you go to a hotel where there is no beach, but a pontoon of 800 meters; )
And we will definitely come back here!
