We chose the hotel for a long time. Judging by the reviews published earlier (2013 - 2014), the hotel used to be good. Reviews for 2015 and 2016 Hardly ever. We rested from 20.06. to 01.07. 2016. At the beginning, the hotel had very few visitors, about 5-10%, and from Thursday to Sunday the hotel was simply jam-packed with the local population. Then everything was empty again. Everything was related to the celebration of Ramadan. In the evening, the local people, after dinner on which it is already impossible to crowd, gather by the pool and listen to the local dull singing of one performer to the national instrument until 12 at night. In general, you need to be a fine connoisseur of the East and it is desirable to know Arabic languages ​ ​ in order to feel calm. In a four-star hotel, there are no beach towels, animations and showers on the beach at all. Water and drinks at lunch and dinner are paid. The rooms are seriously shabby, there are ants on the upper floors. All beautiful wicker furniture except chairs is not functional. Cleaning in the rooms is so-so, the territory is simply miserable (dead lizards and birds are not cleaned for weeks), and there are also a lot of algae on the beach. The territory is beautiful, but not well-groomed, probably it used to be better. We ourselves did not really understand where we were. In general, the hotel is for those who, apart from the beach and the pool, want nothing more. There is nowhere to leave the hotel, and it’s not safe (with us there were cases of the theft of bags from passers-by vacationers, by local hooligans). Food for four. There is no "all inclusive" in the hotel, there is an extra. option - lunch (drinks are paid). Hammam and many procedures of the vaunted thalassotherapy are under repair, the gym is very small and paid - about 600 rubles. for 2 hours.
In general, a depressing impression, although the photos are beautiful, but believe me, everything in this hotel is small and shabby. The escort guide from Koral Daria struck me with her idiocy (she simply tortured everyone leaving with warnings that you can not fly if at least one local coin is in your luggage or hand luggage), as if we wanted to take handfuls of dinars. In general, we had a good rest, sunbathed. But the hotel is very strange.
