Squid rings and shrimp. Dry shrimp. Fruit is sparse. Everything is cut into slices. Strawberry fire. Guava is not tasty, melon not so much. Fries every morning. From alcohol I liked rum, picky) they make majitos very tasty in the lobby. Animation in the hotel for children is gorgeous. in the evenings mini disco and show program. The kids love it, but the adults get bored. Miss and Mr. hotel competitions are complete nonsense. Leading fellow! Pulls everything on itself, but ....At 22.00 the hotel dies!! ! True, sometimes they do karaoke, here you can at least laugh. Disco party 30$. there were discos for $15, but I don't know how it was there. The beach is far. Buses run every 30 minutes. We walked in the morning on foot, through the hotels. 10 minutes ...To the elevator. you can not only walk on the territory of the four, but also ride the slides and eat in restaurants. All children's pools are heated. The sea is awesome! The entry is smooth. There are practically no reefs, but there are a lot of fish. There are sun loungers and trestle beds, but not always free.
The entire animation takes place to the left of the elevator, near the ship. The beach restaurant is awesome! Styrofoam plates, disposable cutlery. There is practically no food! But for that delicious fruit ice. I had to go to the hotel for dinner, then return to the sea. Prices for spa and excursions space! In Turkey, in September, they were 2 times lower. A boat trip on a yacht with a guide is $55, and on the beach $35. in Turkey in September I gave $15. spa: hammam, jacuzzi, sauna, peeling and massage 90 minutes $110. in Turkey gave $65 for 120 minutes. And then it’s somehow incomprehensible, in the hammam you were wetted, scrubbed and washed off yourself, you are not washed. Jacuzzi ice. Bottom line: for those with children, there is paradise! Nothing for adults to do! Oops, I forgot the numbers. The rooms are large, clean and comfortable. Cleaned every day perfectly! They don't make swans. Bathrobes and slippers need to be asked, they are given against signature. There is only water in the fridge, replenished every day. There is a kettle, tea, coffee and sugar.
In the shower: shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, toothpaste and brush, razor, shaving soap and cream. I would go back there again with a child.
The food is quite normal. There were squid every day, chicken, kebabs every other day, fish, shrimp though once a week on Tuesdays. Slides did not work all, but visited the territory of the neighboring hotel Aqua Blu. Their slides are not so extreme, more suitable for children.
The only thing that upset is that now there is temporarily no show 1001 nights, as the site is being renovated. But the show is very good. We visited last year and the kids loved it.
Will we come here again? - Definitely YES! Would we recommend - DEFINITELY!
We rested in this hotel from 09/07/21 to 09/14/21 inclusive, two adults and a child of 13 years old. In Egypt for the tenth time and almost all trips to the hotels of the Albatos chain. We also rested in the nearby Aqua Blu a couple of years ago. I must say right away that the expectation-reality did not materialize.
Upon arrival, they gave $ 20, got a room on the first floor. The room is good, family, with a terrace and access to the pool. The air conditioner worked well. The drain in the bathroom is not clogged, the water flowed great. Surprised that in 5 * there is no mini bar (cola, fanta, sprite), well, that's it, we'll survive. The refrigerator was leaking, every day there was a puddle near it. Cleaning: they left $ 1 every day for cleaning, but the quality of cleaning was not affected in any way. It is very dusty, the mirrors are dirty in blobs of paste from the day we moved into the room, there is a layer of dust on the terrace that, sitting on a chair, black shorts turn white. The carpet in the room is in the trash, it would be better to remove it completely. And for a week the situation with cleaning remained at the level of its absence. Taking white slippers from home with me, I had to throw them away after three days, as they turned just brown, they only wore them in the room). But figures were twisted from towels every day, and the bed was showered with flowers).
Food: The restaurant is dirty! If you didn’t come to the opening, then with a 100% guarantee you will eat at a dirty and sticky table and a chair full of crumbs. In principle, this is often in Egypt, but in this hotel it is somehow more striking.
Meat dishes are always chicken, fish and sometimes kebab. Side dishes are standard: rice, fries, pasta, steamed vegetables. We were not hungry, but there were problems with the assortment compared to other hotels of the same Albatross chain, but what we ate was delicious. Ooooh, I almost forgot))) for breakfast there were donuts, which the chef did not put in a basket of sweets, but only took out 1 pc from the back room at the request of the guest, as if he tore it from the heart (this has never been seen before).
The territory of the hotel is deserted, there is little greenery, the pools are mostly 50 cm (small), so there is expanse with small children. There are deeper ones, but they are not enough.
Beach: far away, we traveled by bus, the bus is cool, the air conditioner always worked, the bus leaves every half hour, although the Aqua Blu bus runs more often. You can also walk through the territory of aqua blue, but in the heat it is stressful. Seats close to the beach. There is a bar closer to the elevator for the whole beach, the second bar which does not work near the bus landing. You have to walk from one end of the beach to the other for drinks. On September 13, for some reason, the bartenders decided that they give out two glasses of beer in one hand, and the "glasses" for beer are plastic, 100 ml each))), and also half a glass of foam). So they ran for half a day, but did not recover). There is no pier to dive and swim, or rather, there is one, but without steps, and you can’t swim and jump from it (. Everything is blocked by buoys, so there’s nowhere to even swim.
The staff is mostly responsive, pleasant, but here they decide, as usual, tips, which we do not skimp on always leaving.
The hotel positions itself as 5 *, and draws a maximum of 4 *, but this is the opinion of my family and the experience of staying in other hotels.
In general, we will definitely not return to Aqua Park.
Thanks for attention! )
Cleaning every day in the rooms. There are heated pools, but the slides are no longer heated, because. hot day.
On the beach they made a large food zone, good toilets and changing rooms. Opened the elevator and stairs to the beach. Separately every half an hour a bus to the beach.
On the beach during the day burgers and ice cream. Tea, coffee drinks. Everything is clean, sanitizers are everywhere.
We really enjoyed. Thanks.
We chose a hotel for a very long time, but when we arrived at Albatross, we did not regret it a bit.
Great hotel, beautiful large and blooming area. Good rooms with all amenities. Responsive and friendly staff, always interested in our mood. A big plus is the variety in food (every day fish and meat in any form), there is also food for PP students. There is a lot of food, you won’t stay hungry as there is a food court near the pools and on the beach. Cool water park and heated pools.
Many thanks to the animation team that every day entertained the holidaymakers during the day (aqua aerobics, exercises, various types of dances and games) and in the evening with bright show programs.
The water in the pools with the water park is cold, although the travel agency said that it would be heated!! ! Only one pool is heated, and one small children's pool!! ! Food more or less.
The staff is ok!
By the way, having a rest of 2 adults and 2 children, we agreed for $ 20 to give us a 2-room suite.
Repairs in the rooms are not the first freshness (((((
Overall, I cannot recommend this hotel.
But there are little things that stick like a snowball and we don’t have a fountain on the exhaust: in a restaurant, dirty dishes are pulled out of your hands, raked out in front of you, the bartenders behave as if they are at least the owners of the hotel, although when asked to make a mojito in a glass of sprite and some badyagi explain that ice, lime and mint will be in the evening! And even tips don't solve problems.
For our large company, 10 adults, running to the bar for a couple of glasses of beer is not a thrill! Rudeness and rudeness, behave as if we are invaders in their country. A separate conversation about coffee, just an abomination, despite the chic coffee machines.
Well, flies, this is generally tin, the feeling is that you are lying on a pig farm, a huge minus. We are not the first time in this country, and we have not yet received such thrills.
Beach, just a beach, no reef, no fun.
Hence the conclusion: I do not recommend the hotel.
