Reviews
The level of discipline, cooperation, and outstanding service exceeded my expectations, starting from the reception and reservation teams to the security staff and car parking attendants.
The rooms are spacious and comfortable, especially the newly renovated ones. The food is exceptional, offering delicious meals across all dining times.
The sandy beach is unique, and the swimming pool is wonderfully designed right next to the sea, creating a perfect atmosphere for relaxation.
I would like to thank the entire team for their great efforts, and I highly recommend maintaining this excellent level of service.
I want to give a special shout-out to Mr. Mohamed and Mr. Mustafa from the front office, and Ahmed from housekeeping. Thanks to all the staff, I'm hoping to come back soon!
The biggest disadvantage is the pool: it is not heated, making it completely unsuitable in cold weather conditions. Because of this, it’s not worth it in colder seasons, as you can’t enjoy the sea or the pool.
Value for money was acceptable, but overall, I would not recommend this hotel in cold conditions
The room was clean, comfortable, and the view was stunning. The staff were friendly and very helpful throughout our stay.
The only small downside was the TV — the picture quality wasn’t the best and the Wi-Fi connection option was disabled, so we couldn’t connect our devices. Not a big issue, but something that could be improved.
The only thing we want to warn you about is that in the afternoon, the amount of water in the sea decreased, which we think was due to the tides. The water in the sea is beautiful, clean, and warm. We also recommend bringing special slippers with you so you don't get pricked by sea urchins that may be on the bottom.
We would like to give special thanks to the entertainers, lifeguard Hussein, the man who cleaned our room, and the boy who brought drinks for breakfast and dinner. Absolutely every member of the hotel staff smiled sincerely and brought joy to our day!
