| said: We stayed at this resort hotel and it has probably been the best holiday that we have had. I ahvent been to many places though.
We were all inclusive and inevitably was mared slightly by the people who have to start drinking at 10am and finnish at 11pm.
The hotel and all the amenities are spotless.
I personally found all meals a banquet,If you tell any chef that you liked anything they would make you something special the next day. For me the pudings and sweets,all first class.
Although this is an isolated resort, there are many activites going on and a few shops with fairly good quality goods for sale. Excusions are available but as we went for a chillout sesion thats what I did.
Dolphins are fequent visitors and the mythical sea cow was seen by other guests in the bay down the road the day after we went,(typical)and the dolphins were at the resort for 10 minuets the day we went looking for the sea cow.Is that luck or what?Diveing and all activites are available if you want them./
All staff spoke some english and many other languages, friendliness seemed like second nature to them. When the inevitable Pharoe,s revenge struck my partner the on site livein doctor gave some pills and she was up and about by sunset. The gardeners brought her flowers from the beutifully kept gardens.
We had dancers come in in the evening, and there was much fun had by all, you just have to let yourself go.
We would certainly go back, if you can make up a group, even better, but there were people alone who never need anyone else. You just fit in were you can or want.

| said: Me and my friend stayed at this hotel in December. We just went away for relaxing! (Which it is perfect for).
I would recommend that you sunbathe on the beach, as 2 things are as follows! 1. You get tormented by the animation team (which Mickey & friend are sooooo lovely), Now I do think that this is because we were to young girls & they thought we wanted an active holiday, but we didn't. Also the massage guy! Just tell them a FIRM NO!!
2. Also in mid December the wind seems to pick up around about 2pm, but on the beach you can get wind shields. In which you don't feel a thing, just PURE SUN!!! There are TWO swimming pools, the large one ISN'T HEATED & a small pool which is like getting into a warm bath! I did actually try the Cold pool & I actually made it to the swim up bar! I think I might have been the only one though!
Also there is a jetty which takes you out to snorkle. It is very long about 1/2 mile, I would suggest taking an MP3 Player with you, while you are relaxing & soaking up the views.(Its perfect for a daily stroll).
There is the main buffet restaurant, which I must say was lovely food, but very repetetive. They had occasional BBQS too. Also they had an a la carte! Italian/Seafood! Which is about £7.50pp. It is lovely if you like Seafood! Now just to let you know a few things! If you go Full Board Plus, like we did, then everything is included apart from a la carte, room service & snacks!Also your FB+ will start at breakfast, but drinks etc. from pool bar/beach bar. Doesn't start until 10am - 11pm. Now you will have to sign for these, so they can keep account! But make sure it says on the bill DO NOT PAY across it!
I would advise start getting the rounds in at about 10.15pm, as they are quite slow around this time ( In the lobby bar!) At 11pm the Disco opens with Mickey & his friend (whom I named Craig David) As he looks a bit like him! As well as the animation team these are your DJ'S too! The 2nd night we was ready to go in at about 11.15pm, they closed the doors beacause no one was in there! The next day we was in there at 10.30 for a boogie! They did say that we were the first ones there in a few weeks. Then all the Britsh came in them! Great stuff!
Overall I went there for a relaxing break away & it was perfect! There isn't much going on, but we really enjoyed it!
Just a quick reminder in winter months it does get abit chilly at night, so take a jacket with you & also DO NOT take any travellers cheques of any sort with you, as they will not change them at this hotel! To change them you would have to get a taxi for about an hour to the nearest town! I would suggest taking Egyption pounds, sterling & euros!
I am looking at going back in May sometime, I can't wait for another relaxing & peaceful break! Have a fantastic time!
