Beautiful, huge hotel area with little German. There were very many Russian couples and Russian families since, but we never felt disturbed. All behaved properly, no matter what compatriots. The gently sloping sand beach is absolutely great for bathing and swimming. Who would like snorkels should choose a different beach for example makadi and Hurghada because there are not many fish. But pay snorkel and snorkeling tours offered. It was without diving suit (beginning/ middle December 2011) much too cold to stay at the sea. The water was warm but the wind freezing. From 14:30 afternoon o'clock it was noticably cooler. Clouds we got as good as never saw. If you have to fly December there are set to the early darkness. The evenings are very long legs and gymnastics. Stomach was free. It was in the early afternoon during our stay it was cold and too windy. Although there is a fitness room but the gymnastic offer was no room available. The entertainers were very friendly and tried hard. The wellness area of the hotel is very nice. However, everything costs extra, even the sauna. You should have a massage allows if you have been there. The massages seller Mohammed can be guaranteed by your sun lounger ☺ and the other agent also. But these sellers were not as pushy as the seller in luxor. The food was good and varied. However, we have decided on salads. Great donuts and fried vegetables in oil. If you didn't want to do something, could use the wellness-corner and light and healthy diet. The waiters and cooks in the main restaurant were very friendly. Especially good we were greeted by Mohamed El Baz and Eslam abdo served. They left the area if you look at the entrance to the left toward the water and coffee machine is. We never had a stomachache or diarrhea. Also not after the meal in a restaurant in luxor. We highly recommend you to book an excursion to luxor. We booked in the hotel the ETS. He helped us with the cash purchase with Master card. He was very helpful. We had for our day trip a great travel guide to luxor, the great spoke German and very much said. If you are not in luxor was, was not in Egypt! In luxor was not many tourists so fell the many sellers on the few tourists, who were there. In the valley of the Kings even on the way to the grave inside! It was really annoying. Towels, figures and so on were offered. But on this day we get to see, was very impressive. In addition to the program we booked a Nile-shipping and a carriage ride through locals markets, where no other tourist go anywhere. Gigantic!
