  Good small place

  10 May 2026

  Overall, we had a very positive experience! We spent 4 lovely days there, and it was great value for the money.We really loved that the hotel was not overcrowded in these month, so the pool was never packed, there was always space in the sunbathing area, and we didn’t have to wake up extra early to reserve loungers by the pool.The room was okay-ish — we’ve definitely seen better, but also worse. We didn’t like the dirty curtains and carpet, although the carpet was removed on the second day. The door lock was also a bit fussy at first, the shower drain was a bit tight, the plumbing is new, but the walls could use some cosmetic work. The staff is constantly busy cleaning and tidying up the grounds, and it's noticeable, but it's nice to see that they care..The staff were very friendly and polite. The room service guy always did his best to surprise us with creative towel art and flowers on the bed whenever we came back from longer walks. He made cleaning every day, we leave him tips after that.The food was good, especially considering that we’re not picky eaters and we love vegetables. Animation was poor (maybe becouse of tourists quantity) but in the city are some places to visit. For two adults on a short stay, we left feeling satisfied, relaxed, and well-rested.Price = quality=100%❤️🙏

  Unacceptable for disabled clients as I am of reduced mobility

  10 May 2026

  Unacceptable for disabled clients you either have to climb stairs to get down to pool area or to climb up stairs to get to the reception area there is no middle, offered another room downstairs but same problem would have occurred , restaurant was up a steep incline with 4 more steps after that i had no choice but to eat in the room and stay on the balcony. Staff are brilliant i must add rooms are clean but disabilty access let it down unfortunately there is no happy medium hotel description does not mention this difficulty and Love Holidays dont want to know

  It was good for the value we paid

  12 Mar 2026

  Our first room smelt of drainage so asked to move, next room was fine. Room was very old and needed some TLC, the whole place needs some TLC. Bathroom wasn’t pleasant. Food was okay! Breakfast we had fresh omelettes everyday. Lunch was always better than dinner. Meat was always very fatty and full of bones imo. Drinks were a bit of a disappointment, no hot chocolate and sometimes flat. Staff were very nice, karim is lovely always asked us how we were! Had a couples massage and it was great, he made our whole holiday so much better! One of the waiters was lovely too and saved us a table everyday and done our drinks!Overall we had a nice holiday 🥰

  Complete and utter disappointment

  17 Feb 2026

  When we arrived we quickly realised this hotel wasn't going to be that we are used to when we come to Egypt and requested the next day to be moved, on the beach were unreachable and the rep said he cant help until on the beach confirmed so we decided to stop stressing and make the best of it. The weather was glorious, the pool was nice and there is enough to do in the area to keep you busy in the day. The heated pool however is more like a water feature that the small children play in and it quite dirty. The food on the first night was terrible, breakfast is awful and I skipped it every day. The lunches and dinners dis improve as the week went on and were quite enjoyable altho EXTREMELY repetitive and a little bland, nothing to get excited about, I think I actually lost weight on this holiday. The timings for lunch and dinner are when it suits them, it'll say 12 on the schedule but u go along and they say come back at 1. You arw allowed ice cream at 4pm everyday for a half an hour window, in winter it starts to cool down at get dark around that time. There are no snacks through the day either just breakfast lunch and dinner. Pretty much everything in this hotel is broken, patio door didn't lock, air con didn't work, pool table is mouldy, tiles everywhere are broken. The hotel is full of Russians and it seems they like it that way, they dont seem to like the English, the man at reception is rude, man at the bar rude, I walked into the bar and everyone drinking pretty cocktails I asked if he could make me a pretty cocktail so I could take a picture he made me two drinks in regular glasses whilst at the same time making a pretty cocktail and took the pretty cocktail to someone else! We are leaving today and are currently being harassed about a towel that is missing from our room and they're asking for money for it, I said the kids would have left it around the pool and a cleaner must have picked it up but he is getting ruder and ruder and im actually worried he is going to call the police while we are trying to leave. The room wasn't cleaned, I has to ask at reception for it to be cleaned, they still didn't come, I asked again the next day and someone came but they made me pick up everything off the floor (few items of clothing and shoes) before they would clean it. The room was cleaned that one time all week, no clean towels, nothing. When we first arrived there were not enough beds in our room and I had to argue with the receptionist to het another bed brought in, the expected my 2 teenage children to share a single bed!! The double bed was quite comfortable but the single beds were awful yoy could feel all the springs in it and the fold out bed they brought in sunk in the middle. Every hotel ive been to in Egypt they want to help you, bring you drinks ect, here my son went the bar for a drink and got shouted at because we have too many of their cuts and he made my son collect the cups and bring them back. The evening entertainment is an hour and a half of sod all, I went a few times but it was so boring, no bar there you have to walk to reception where the 1 and only bar is, with 1 member of staff so sometimes you'll wait 30 minutes for a drink. The entertainment area is a spot of pavement and some grass with lawn chairs, the speakers have blown so everything they do sounds awful from start to finish. Ive been to better bbqs. I was in bed by 9 every night. We had a nice holiday in spite of this hotel not because of it
