We are since 15 years vacation in Egypt and the category very much better used. Especially the gastronomy leaves much to be desired! The snacks at the beach are always cold, carelessly to not at all displayed and changed between Hamburg and tomato in the round rolls or chicken in the longish rolls or tuna salad in longish rolls - everything behind the bar tucked away in the sight passes one the appetite. In addition daily cold pizza Margherita and daily changing sloppy cold fries or aluminum wrapped potatoes. No fruit! The breakfast is O... Read more

For a relaxing beach vacation the hotel is very suitable. I had a double room for single use on the ground floor direction pool. Really great. Staff in every aspect always friendly. English are however recommendable nonetheless. The all inclusive is good. Even with check at 2:00 o'clock at night was another small meal prepared and the mini bar in the room was always filled. At the beach a variety of activities offered. Also it pays off here to act. Read more

I of the reviews here influenced this hotel to book. I was very surprised, since it the first time Egypt for me was.

I was the first time in the hotel and never again, the staff were unmotivated, rude and sometimes aggressive. The hotel needs a renovation, facilities the room could be better, new window in the whole hotel, because if it windy, one hears whistle in the entire hotel, in the room and at night one can sleep very bad because. The hotel I give three stars and not viereinhalbe. Read more
