1. Check-in is very fast. Arrived at 9.00 at the hotel were already 10. Checked in at 11.00.
2. The food is very good, but there are not enough tables. There is a second room, but it's cold there, so take something warm, but there are empty seats.
3. Pools - they all smell very much of chlorine, they are warm, there are two children's pools in the adult area, 50 cm deep, but not very clean. Also, be careful where the tiles fall off the child can get hurt.
4. The sea, here, of course, we were not warned that it would not be there and we had to walk 300 meters along the pier. If you and your children are ready to swim with them in the pool. There are slides, kids love them.
5. The rooms are old but comfortable enough, cleaned well.
6. And the hotel has a lot of Arabs.
7. The most important thing. Sunbeds near the pools are occupied in the morning and go to swim on the pier. There are sun loungers on the beach.
8. Live music in the morning.
The service staff is friendly and attentive.
We settled into a spacious, clean room with a sea view. The morning was always good!
The animation was top notch! The guys tried to decorate the rest, giving positive emotions! Thank them!
They preferred the entrance to the sea of a fabulous shade from the pier.
The food at the hotel was varied and delicious! It was nice to have dinner at a table on the street, contemplating the fabulously lit area!
Thanks everyone!
The food is varied and very tasty.
Super cool animation team. Active guys will not let anyone get bored. But if you want relaxation, then they will not impose. Neil, Anastasia, Ashley, Johnny, Simba and all the other animation guys - you are great fellows.
There are corals for snorkeling. There is a diving club, kite club, surfing.
I wish the beach was cleaner.
Tip 1 for travelers. Sometimes it is better not to take a transfer, but to take a taxi. This is 20 minutes, and while the transfer will take all the tourists to the hotels, it will be 2 hours. For the same reason and vice versa.
Tip 2. Sometimes you can leave our good Ukrainian chocolate as a tip. He is appreciated here.
ROOMS in Tropitel are old, dirty (the photo shows hair on the mixers and you can list many more). The toilet is broken, the shower too, the balcony does not close. After cleaning, swans are out of the question.
Settled and... a room for four, and the beds are two and a half. Towels are also only for two people, and so on, but oh well, it can be solved, but the food is generally dark.
NUTRITION. They put on bracelets after 10:30, so that we with young children would not have time for breakfast, and lunch as much as 13. You can’t eat anywhere else, even at the bars on the beach. In hotels, albatross wore bracelets immediately and sent them to eat while the room was being prepared.
There is nothing, I have not seen such a small assortment in more than one hotel (I was in 5). There is no children's menu at all.
TERRITORY tired, reluctantly removed. The tile breaks off from the pool, it is sharp, the small one was cut.
BEACH in the garbage, I clean it badly.
It is windy on the SEA, the entry is not for children.
And the STAFF is no words, boors.
After complaints, they promised to fix everything and brought a gift (pictured on a white plate), as a mockery.
And when checking out, they said that there were not enough towels, although there were 3 sets of towels left in the room for 3 people, offered to go to the room to sort it out, but suddenly the cleaner found everything.
I don't understand why this rating?
+ 2 heated pools in winter.
+ 3 water slides.
+ Family rooms are two-room.
+ Drinks 24 hours a day.
"-":
- Windy region, from November to March, sunbathing and swimming in the sea is uncomfortable.
Video review - https://www.youtube.com/watch? v=iHg33sUiyIY
Fish swimming in other places singly swim here in flocks.
I swam from the big fish -6 times with eagle stingrays (I determined that there are 5 different ones from my video), 1 time with a turtle (about 40 minutes - not scared, but I consider meeting her here only with great luck - maybe seasonally, I don’t know), 1 time - a huge spotted ringed stingray, 1 time with a large spotted crest-tailed stingray (Purely for large ones - I don’t think that this is a lot for recreation), moray eels and blue-spotted stingrays (frequent meetings with them), I don’t take into account barracudas, some of them were quite large, Krupnyak (bracken stingrays, turtle, ringed stingray) can only be seen with very early swims,
Not only the reef of the hotel is interesting, but it was also possible to swim in the direction of Makadi, it is also beautiful in this direction, but away from the hotel there are beautiful reefs in pieces, Away from the hotel reef, if you swim to Le Riva away, there are several small beautiful hills, From Le Riva there are no corals along the very shore of Baron, you have to swim deep into the sea to swim to the coral underwater ridges, the policy of the hotel is the red flag even with not very big waves, but this issue is solvable, the red flag from 14 days before lunch was 10 days (I only missed one swim from 10/00 to 13/30), after lunch - always calm, , Waves (when the red flag) I don’t consider them dangerous here, just a bumpy, there are no waves that tear off the mask and throw it on the reef.
Very good conditions for filming and taking photos underwater, except for the bumpiness,
The coral reef is attractive even not far from the pontoon, if someone knows how to swim even a little, There is a FROG, the first descent from the pontoon, they swim there in any weather, NEMO fish, a blue-spotted stingray, etc. , colorful fish are regulars here,
For those who are not confident in themselves, vests are given on a pontoon,
On YouTube you can look at my 2 short videos on the sea (for those who are interested to see what the inhabitants can see, only I couldn’t shoot the octopus - it’s very deep and I didn’t post the crest-tailed stingray because of the quality), follow the link

I’m very sorry - I’ll answer questions about the sea, about food, etc. , I won’t answer. In this regard, here is super,
2. Thank you very much to the chef of the hotel. Fruits, yogurts, a lot of meat, side dishes and much more.
3. Animation. For children and adults there is an interesting program during the day. Stretching, dancing, step aerobics, aerobics, darts, boccia. There is a mini disco for children and various evening shows.
4. The territory of the hotel is well-groomed, the entrance to the sea from the pier, its own beach.
5. Each hotel has its own rules. Who wants to prove himself on the stage of the hotel, ask at the reception. And then well, well, well, they will say.
6. Thank you very much to the hotel manager.
P. S. I want to note: Ira, Tanya, Nastya, Alice are animators.
The rooms are in good condition, the rooms are spacious, large bathrooms with showers and full size baths. Hotel shampoo, gel, soap are good. For drying clothes in the bathroom, the cord does not always cope - they pulled their own rope on the balcony. The rooms are all intact and clean.
TV with Russian-language channels, hair dryer, kettle with tea and coffee set, refrigerator, safe, there are enough (! ) strong hangers in the closet, 3 table lamps with subdued light, sconces, air conditioning with control on the wall. Cleaning is daily, of high quality, with the replacement of towels and replenishment of the bar. The hotel is 5 floors, many rooms on the 1st floor have a 2nd exit through the balcony. They settled, as they thought, in the left wing, numbers 4007.4008, 4030. The first two have one balcony. The view of the abandoned construction site was not embarrassing, you can see the sea and the whole bay, the rooms were not changed.
The territory is beautiful, well-groomed, 2 central pools, one for children and 3 more around the perimeter, one of them is heated for evening relaxation. There is a good hill. Water in pools without chlorine, take tests. There are always free sunbeds, but some are in their room for the first day or two. You can lie down near pools, bars, on a pontoon or by the sea. The latter are taken early in the morning. Sun cream is a must.
Access to the sea through a pontoon, the reef is bright, lively, snorkeling is successful. We met moray eels, stingrays, squids and all the smaller ones. Rescuers on the pontoon. Along the sea of the promenade, with unobtrusive security, they ran in the morning.
Nutrition. Above all praise. The menu is great, regularly updated, themed days, Bravo to the chef! 2 neighboring restaurants. 3 a la carte restaurants with one free entry, lunch without appointment. Mexican is very good. There is a separate burger joint, popular with children and Germans. Alcoholic drinks are local, juices in restaurants are real (or very close to them), in bars (they counted 4 + 2 in the building) packaged, beer, water without restrictions. Several types of tea, coffee in machines, milk is always available. The best coffee is brewed in the lobby.
The hotel staff is professional, quite correct and friendly: you can feel the hand of the General Manager. A small tip is appropriate. Everyone speaks English, they understand Russian.
Learn a few phrases in Arabic - you will be pleasantly surprised. Thanks to Olga at the lobby: our friend's birthday with a cake, decorating the room and dancing to the tambourine went off with a bang. Animation - entertain young girls and middle-aged boys. During the day - beach sports (attended yoga with Tatyana - excellent), in the evening - amateur art in a huge hall. Everyone is trying very hard. There are visiting artists.
Spa. On the day of arrival, we went to the machan for $ 25 / person. The impression is ambiguous. Gym with professional equipment. Barbershop - always someone sheared and shaved. Games room with slot machines, small billiards and table tennis. The bar has 3 floors of billiards and sports poker with a hotel dealer. Tennis. There are shops and a pharmacy. Prices in the pharmacy, as in Hurghada: 1-2-3/1$, Okumesil (for the eyes)/1$. Diving center, diving from the pier. Medical center, God bless. Bicycle - according to the voucher 1 hour free of charge.
Car for 4 people - $30 / 2 hours, swept across the bay ...well, take.
Tours were not taken. Free daily bus to Hurghada, entry. We bought a box of mangoes. Wi-Fi in the lobby, restaurants and right side of the beach. In the evening, when everyone is connected, it is difficult to “talk with the Motherland”. Check-out until 12.00. At the reception they extended it for free by one hour. A high-level hotel, really 5 stars, everyone liked it. We'll probably come again. Many thanks to all the hotel staff! We went through the agency "Turbonjour" - the design is professional, we flew "Rose of the Winds" - there are no delays or comments.
